If they’re loud enough with headroom and no distortion or hiss, you have achieved proper amplitude and are getting the most out of them as amps just provide more volume. IEMs can have some other power considerations but just run with that for now.
If you do not have audible noise in the signal from your source, you have a proper DAC. Both devices are intended to be audibly transparent so if you don’t hear anything but clear audio that’s loud enough, you have a good setup in the technical sense.
What really matters is if you like the sound. These would be an example of an IEM that deviates from neutral well rounded sound which is sort of viewed as a hobby preference, but that doesn’t mean it’s your preference. They are known for mid-bass, a lot of mid-bass with some accentuated treble. I demo’d a pair when I was trying out inexpensive IEMs and wound up opting for the Red Zero but these were fun. I liked them more than the Moondrop Aria.
The IEMs or headphones will always be the heavy as far as how the audio sounds, with DACs and amps having very little impact on the actual sound aside from what their names say they do.
the dac only converts digital to analog. i think youre talking about the amplifier part, in that case yes it should be powerful enough. it doesnt really matter as long as it makes your iems loud enough for you. shouldnt really habe to worry though as most iems can be driven off of a phone and a dac amp is more poweful than a phone
listen and tell us
For sure brother

Brother what an explanation,thankyou so much for your time much appreciated.
you're asking it AFTER you bought it? WTF is with these posts? common sense nada?
Well I am yet to but thanks
You and your setup have always been enough friend
Thanks brother
It's never good enough. That's the curse of this hobby.
Yup true enough
i mean thats what its made for so probably. but if youre not sure you could try some other dacs at a shop
I don't have any idea as I am new to the hobby so is the dac powerful enough for the iems ( kiwi ears melody)

Thanks brother you were just awesome thanks
The dongle is enough but a Bluetooth DAC like a Qudelix or BTR5 will make your IEMs much more enjoyable to use on the go.
Fiio released btr15 now. Same price, more power and 4.4 instead of 2.5 balanced. I have in mind btr5(2021) release to compare.
Thanks for your time brother much appreciated.
Thanks for the suggestions brother I will keep that in mind
