Nobody answer... the question seems to be simply: does yours has the same appearance? My two units had the creative tilt of the jack.
Mine is not perfectly 90 degrees. With most headphones you really can't notice though. It's probably at an angle of about 1-2 degrees (0.017-0.035 radians). This is more of an aesthetic gripe though rather than a functional one.

yes, and the aesthetic is the main reason of my choice. I decided to live wit the tilt, the 4,4 adapter is almost here, and I'll use mostly that

It is what you see, with every jack, even worst without the case. My question is not about a validation of my findings, but if every unit is affected by this horrible imperfection in a product I've chosen for its supposed build quality, paying abit of extra money and accepting to have a considerably less advantages. Am I a maniac of perfection? Are yours and in the same condition?image.jpgimage.jpg
Mine is exactly the same :/ no audiable effect tho.

I have added 2 more 140 ohm 1% Dale US resistors to the 4.4 mm balace port. Unexpectedly and amazingly with the audible sound, the background noise was absent. enjoy music in complete silence and be happy. you guys try it. i love you so much ifi go blue

This matches superbly with all the focals ive tried it with; Elegia, Stellia & Clear.

Really special pairing with the Clear & Stellia. I think I like it more than the Mojo with my Clears…for real. Its more exciting

A clarification on filter settings , does standard setting mean “filter off” or is it “linear phase filter”.. can someone in ifi confirm

We don't have any sort of "no filter" feature in our devices. This means it is on the standard (STD) filter.

Thanks @ everyone who has posted about this tilt issue.

I am looking further into this with our internal team.

Please open up a support ticket with us here about this: https://support.ifi-audio.com/

Reiterating FW request.. Software gain switch please. All other features are already good.. this is a portable device not meant to drive power hungry headphones but iems which don’t need too much power.

My Aune BU2, Lotoo Paw S1 and GO blu all exhibit some type of slight angle/tilt with the 3.5mm jack. I wouldn't be too concerned about it honestly.

I think this may have been reported before but was wondering if anyone had a solution for my problem.

Pairing the go blu to iPhone 13 the music is at normal listening levels but my WhatsApp notification alerts are deafeningly loud if I forget to reduce the volume immediately.

Is there a way to solve this issue so that the alerts volume are not so high each time I pair.
Thanks

Anyone have this issue in iOS? Playing back embedded videos in Twitter posts have no audio, this extends to the videos in Facebook app as well, no audio. Sometimes you can get audio back by toggling the mute/unmute switch on the phone, other times you can't.

Other music playback apps work fine, weird.

question, Is there a noticeable difference in sound quality when you use the GO Blu as a WIRED PC DAC/AMP vs Wireless LDAC?
It is noticeable, but not huge!
