How can i improve the sound of Iphone 11?


I am using SE846 earphones into Ibasso DX90 and i love the sound. I recently bought TIDAL for streaming at home. 
I tried listened to TIDAL through my iphone 11 into SE846 and obviously, with no DAC in it, it was not as good as when using DX90. 

There are times i cannot carry the DX90 but will have my phone with me.

Is there a dongle i can put between the Iphone and SE846 that will improve the sound to match that of my DX90?

I prefer my Chord Hugo 2 but when I'm traveling light I love my AudioQuest Dragonfly Cobalt.  It delivers amazing sound in such a convenient small size.  I bought an AudioQuest Dragonfly Red when I misplaced my Cobalt and was surprised that an even more affordable DAC can sound so good.  The Cobalt has a lower noise floor, generally sounds better and is smaller in size, but the Red is really all you will need if you will be mainly using it in environments where you may hear some of the background sound.  After listening to both of them side-by-side I can easily hear that the Cobalt is clearer, more precise, has tighter deeper bass and more natural extended highs, a greater sense of depth and width to the soundstage, and an overall more pleasing sound than the Red. It really is worth the extra $100.
