    The Continuation Of The Sony Walkman 1Z/1A Thread!

    Got a WM1A a week ago and I'm done with dongles, lol, when I was listening to my single DD IEMs on dongles, Xelento and IE600, I thought that it were, as a single driver units, struggling to reproduces all the spectrum of sounds, there were no separation, now when I tried it with WM1A it sounds...

    Shure SE846 Impressions Thread

    Have SE846 gen2 for two weeks now and it's instantly my go to, midrange as clear as I'd hear from speakers, bass outstanding, because there where is a lot of bass, you get a lot of bass, there where is no bass, you get no bass, just as you would expect from monitoring speakers. It came as...

    Etymotic & Westone - Discussion & Impressions (index in 1st post)

    This week I got Mach 60 and 80, haven't even unpacked mach 80 so far. When I first listened to Mach 60 I thought for myself that bass is lacking, before it I was using extensively W80, and midrange details seemed more clear, but I didn't pay much attention to the clarity, it was a quick listen...

    The iBasso Dongle DAC Thread – DC03 Pro | DC04 Pro | DC06 Pro | DC Elite | ...

    so in the trash bin it belongs, and it seems Ibasso realized that themselves, because I've tried to look it up and it seems to be completely wiped off their english site. That's terrible spec and no excuse that it was a bluetooth adapter.

    well in that case people can see what I've written and into what you twisted it I don't judge people by how long they've been on a forum, you express your opinion as demands and the only way things should be done, as if everybody agrees and wants that way I saw you trying to bully Hiby...

    The iBasso Dongle DAC Thread – DC03 Pro | DC04 Pro | DC06 Pro | DC Elite | ...

    you want aluminum, I want titanium, you asked iBasso why, I'm the answer, there are people like me who like that it's titanium, so did developer itself, they called it a flagship dongle and have chosen premium components through and through, don't like it, not a problem, because there are people...

    The iBasso Dongle DAC Thread – DC03 Pro | DC04 Pro | DC06 Pro | DC Elite | ...

    twisting what I've said to laughable extent... I've never equated anything what you said to different things what you want... I see it's news to you that IEMs are known for its sensitivity and "a lot of" isn't automatically equal to "all", well now you know it... and hyper is a perfect word to...

    The iBasso Dongle DAC Thread – DC03 Pro | DC04 Pro | DC06 Pro | DC Elite | ...

    Can't see why one would need to "play" with volume so much and it's a great feature protecting from accidental volume bump up, some of us still has good hearing and don't want to accidentally blast our ears off when it happens, because in reality most use dongles with IEMs and a lot of IEMs are...

    So no output impedance spec? Usually high SINAD numbers are accompanied by high output impedance on portable dongles.

    The iBasso Dongle DAC Thread – DC03 Pro | DC04 Pro | DC06 Pro | DC Elite | ...

    Ok, I think you're right, I've just read on their website stating that "there is no built-in battery, so the DC-Elite receives its power through the usb interface from the master device. The actual power consumption is related to the operation and the device system." This leaves them a room to...

    The iBasso Dongle DAC Thread – DC03 Pro | DC04 Pro | DC06 Pro | DC Elite | ...

    You must have been living under a rock, because it's widely known that if you own an iphone with a lighting port, or iphone below 15, it has a power limit that it can deliver and it shuts down power to a device once that limit is reached or you start hearing all kind of artifacts. I'm pretty...

    Introducing Shanling UA3 - Our first Portable USB DAC/AMP with brand new generation of AKM DAC!

    For me it was quite easy to understand how software and hardware volume works on it and how to separate it from each other, or just disable software volume control, like some here want, but it seems some are having a hard time understanding the obvious and from last few posts, it's apparent...

    [KA3/KA13] FIIO X JADEAUDIO USB DAC DONGLE

    Wow, that's truly a powerhouse.

    [KA3/KA13] FIIO X JADEAUDIO USB DAC DONGLE

    What output power is into 16Ohms? Because a lot of IEMS are below 32Ohms and almost every single dongle is current limited below 32Ohms.

    [KA3/KA13] FIIO X JADEAUDIO USB DAC DONGLE

    I've read on some chinese website that it will be 550mw under balanced and that it might be able to detect PD ability of your phone and this way increase it's power output beyond what dongles were able to do so far. I could be completely off the target, because I had to use translation to read...

    Introducing Shanling UA3 - Our first Portable USB DAC/AMP with brand new generation of AKM DAC!

    Just got it today, sounds just as good to me as my W4 dongle, I like the way volume is handled here, so far I only use built in hardware volume, so having to press a middle button to temporally activate hardware volume makes it sure that it won't be changed accidentally and I changed volume...

    Etymotic Research EVO impressions and discussion thread

    Got these a week ago, was struggling a bit with a fit, because it's a completely new thing to me, it goes deeper than other IEMs, so I just needed to find the right angle, at first I thought it's not for me, my ears are too small, because even with the smallest ear tips I still felt a bit of...

    Luxury & Precision (LP) W4, Successor to Their Popular W1/W2 USB Dongle is Here!

    Same, lukewarm is the hottest it gets after also hours of use with my phone. I've even run Sennheiser hd 800 for hours through balanced port, lukewarm the hottest it gets. Maybe he somehow exposed it to water and it short-circuited inside, that would explain "extremely hot", because "extremely...

    Beyerdynamic Xelento!

    That's exactly where my research about it was leading me to, that is Evo's neutrality, precise bass, I feel like it can be a good accompany to Xelento, by being different, yet top in it's own game, I also wanted to try out multi BAs and figured EVO should be the top implemantation. Thanks for...

    Beyerdynamic Xelento!

    Today I got my Xelento 2nd gen remote. Wow, just wow, it sounds so good. Comparing it to my IE600, I can say that ear fit comfort is just day and night, with Xelento it feels like you put some cotton in your ears and you can easily forget that you wear it and immerse yourself into music, while...

    New Beyerdynamic Xelento 2nd Generation is Now Available at Bloom

    I figured I posted in the wrong thread, so anyways, I can't delete this post now, so I edited it and all I got to say is I just got it in Europe and I'm really impressed how good it sounds and will post more details in Xelento topic in headphones thread. Feel free to delete this reply mods, if...

    Luxury & Precision (LP) W4, Successor to Their Popular W1/W2 USB Dongle is Here!

    Just heads up for anyone in EU, I bought W4 from MusicTeck in US and it arrived within a week to eastern europe, outstanding, as is quality of this dongle. I also bought LINDY ANTHRA LINE USB4 usc-c to c 0.8m length connector elsewhere and it is great and feels way better than the ones which...
