🎧 EPZ Audio TP35 Pro Review – Best Budget Audio Dongle with PEQ and Power? πŸ”₯

 I ust got my hands on the EPZ TP35 Pro, and wow—for around $62, this little dongle delivers a lot more than I expected.

Let’s talk real. It’s compact (barely 15g), comes with both 3.5mm and 4.4mm outputs, and rocks a USB-C input—basically plug-and-play for Android, PC, and even macOS. There are even volume control buttons and a neat RGB LED. Small device, solid first impression. ✅
But what really makes this dongle stand out is the WalkPlay app. Yeah, it’s a little clunky to set up (used WhatsApp to log in, weirdly enough), and it’s not available on iOS, but once it’s working—man, it’s powerful.
Inside the app, you get access to:
πŸ”Έ Filter options
πŸ”Έ Gain settings
πŸ”Έ A full 10-band PEQ you can tweak, save, and even store directly on the dongle—so your settings stay, even after you unplug.
Only downside? A noticeable “pop” sound when adjusting EQ live—but not a dealbreaker.
In terms of sound, it’s got that neutral-with-a-touch-of-warmth character you’d expect from the CirrusLogic CS43198 DAC chip. Very clean and musical. Power-wise? You’re looking at 112 mW (SE) and 262 mW (balanced) at 32 ohms—plenty for most IEMs, but not quite enough for demanding over-ear headphones.
Honestly? The TP35 Pro is the most balanced in terms of value, sound, and customizability. The EQ alone makes it a winner for those who love to fine-tune their sound.
If you're on a budget but still want serious flexibility and respectable performance, this is a dongle DAC worth checking out. Whether you’re into portable Hi-Fi or just want to upgrade your phone’s audio, this is a killer choice at the price point.
