I read some review, and the ones with measurements are really bad. See: https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/review-and-measurements-of-dacport-hd-and-dragonfly-red.5977/ and: http://archimago.blogspot.com/2019/08/measurements-dragonflies-audioquest.html There are many...

I finally found a way to use my Meridian Explorer with the usb c interface of my Galaxy note 10. Using the HiByMusic app It correctly detects the Meridian Explorer, has many volume steps, and it even manages hires files, see the three leds showing a 192khz file. The sound with a Grado Ps500e is...

I solved the issue using the HiByMusic app. It correctly detects the Meridian Explorer, has many volume steps, and it even manages hires files, see the three leds showing a 192khz file. No need for a new portable dac and amp then!

I succeeded in using the Meridian explorer (v1) with my Samsung Galaxy Note 10, via Usb C and and otg cable, and it's working fine, but only with a couple of app: Onkyo and Teac hires player. If I use any other app (i.e. poweramp) the output level is far too low. I tried to modify all the...

I guess that if you want a good amp output level you need to accept that.

I am going to order an SMSL iDea, seems pretty good: https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/measurements-and-review-of-smsl-idea-and-audioquest-dragonfly-black-dacs.2397/

Is this cap a result of the European version? Is the Onkyo affected by the same issue? Inviato dal mio SM-N915FY utilizzando Tapatalk

The MDR-MA900 and the MDR-Z7 drivers looks exactly the same to me..

I guess that a cable that costs several hundred bucks has to PERFECTLY fit to the Z7 (i.e.have the threaded connection)...

You may be totally right. In fact the Ps500e are not lacking any bass, quite the contrary. When I bought the Grados I was thinking to buy an Audiotechnica Ath-w1000x (I was intrigued by the wood, you know...), then I listened to the Ps-500e and I immediately liked them.   In anyway the...

The Z7 finally arrived, and I had a very quick listening of my favorite music (mostly rock). The following are highly subjective impressions, I am not a pro reviewer neither I had the time to make a critical listening.   I used Itunes via a Dell Pc, connected via usb to a Teac Ha-P50, set on...

Thanks for your help. Actually the 55k file limit wouldn't be a problem, since I have only alac files encoded from cds. Very welcomed would be having 480MB, that's why I tought to the Crucial, a 512MB cf it's way too expensive. It's a real pity opening the brand new 160GB classic, so in your...

    Thanks for th precious recap. I just bought a brand new 160gb classic, and I have no intention of switching to Rockbox, so I read most of this thread in order to check if I could upgrade the inernal hard disk with a bigger one... My best choice it's the Crucial M480 but I couldn't find a...

Hi, I just bought a brand new Classic 160 GB (model Mc293QL/A), and I was thinking about modifying it with a crucial m480. The goal is keeping Apple OS, so I was asking if it would be possible and if you have any experience or hints about...

Were you able to test it with an Android smartphone different from a Sony Experia?
