Same here. It’s a toss up between LCD i4 and the DC- Elite.

Off for sale is a limited edition iFi Gold bar, I’m the second owner of the DAC. The majority of my listening is through a different source, and this has been sitting around unused for quite some time. I would much rather see it go to use instead of stashed away in my desk.

If that’s the case then L&P is better off relocating to Taiwan or Hong Kong, or scrapping the Intel thing altogether. US tarrifs are likely to double ( or be raised by a significant amount) soon. Either that or the LP7 will be in very limited quantities at a higher price . But for giggles, it...

@darveniza got a chance to sample the MIAD. Just wanted to cross post it here.

How is the EQ with the phone? Any weird issues with streaming?

Ever consider the DC- Elite or the W4? I’d imagine that those would be a great dongle compliment for the Mjolnir.

That and for some components there’s a minimum buy amount. I just don’t think Moondrop has the buying power for some of the better components out there. When have they ever competed with those dongles? Have you seen the Dawn?

No more DX260?

Barely in but apparently STAX is now entering the Mid Fi space. https://www.head-fi.org/threads/stax-srs-x1000-and-sr-x1-now-available-to-pre-order-at-headamp.972601/

Those were the exact use cases I was thinking of. At $399 it’s a YOLO purchase and if it doesn’t work out I could likely offload it on Craigslist for close to what I bought it for since it’s a phone after all.

If it wasn’t price prohibitive I’d do the Novus over my Odyssey. But alas I’d wait for one to come along pre-owned.

What would be cool is a new smaller Weapon driver for customs. But I’m guessing that’s where Trition comes into play.

God ol’ SP3000 with a Murakumo interconnect.

I’m in Japan semi regularly I don’t mind picking them up for you. I just got back a week ago. Let me know…

Cirrus supplies a lot of smartphones, laptops and modems…areas ripe with potential for EMI. I’m guessing it was chosen for that regard.
