Hi, I'm interested in a desktop dac amp setup with an inaudible noise floor/hissing for sensitive IEMs. I'm not sure what's more important for noise floor - the dac section or amp section, or both. For dacs, I hear the SMSL SU-9 has no noise floor with sensitive IEMs. I'm guessing the Ultra...

sorry, I posted this in the wrong forum. Please delete.

Just wanted to provide an update on my static issue with XD05 Pro. I sent it back to the vendor to have them evaluate the static I was hearing with the LME op amps on bluetooth mode. They were able to verify it and send me a replacement. So is the replacement better? The static is not as...

Hmm, does it also make the electric static sound on Bluetooth mode with the OPA op amps? In my case, the OPA op amps don't make any static noises. It's only the LME op amps that makes this weird noise on Bluetooth mode.

That's very interesting that you have a similar issue with a different dac/amp. So I guess the op amps can cause interference with the Bluetooth signal. I do find it somewhat more understandable if the Burson V5iD isn't one of their official offerings. The XD05 Pro comes included with the LME op...

Ah, thank you so much for sharing the video, and props to ToneDeafMonk! I've received help on this forum from other users, but this video is a great resource for anybody who's interested in installing the Sparkos SS3602 op amps 💖🙏

Ah, unfortunately, I don't have a separate amplifier. The weird thing is, the issue is not present with the OPA op amps or Sparkos op amps. The Bluetooth only starts making the static/crackling/electrical frequency noise when the LME op amps are installed. I cycled through all the op amps again...

Has anyone tried using the Bluetooth function with the LME op amps installed? I'm getting weird static/electrical frequency sounds only with the LME op amps when I activate Bluetooth. I don't get this with the OPA op amps or Sparkos op amps. I'm trying to figure out if I need to exchange my...

I came across an issue. I'm now getting static/crackling and a weird electrical frequency sound when I turn on Bluetooth. I have no issues when I use a USB C to USB C connection. EDIT: I don't know if it's just with my device, but for whatever reason, the LME op amps are causing me to hear...

Does anyone else detect hissing/noise floor with the XD05 Pro? I don't know if it's with just my device, but it's easiest to notice when I have a USB C to USB C connection with my phone. There's a light indicator above the USB C jack (behind the XD05 Pro) that changes from red light to green...

My guess is that my XD05 Pro USB C to USB C cable is transferring an insufficient current (under 25 watts). I've tested other cables, and the cables rated at 25 watts or higher have no issues. Can I ask what external power supply you're using for your XD05? Do you notice any sound quality...

I cut off the silver pins on the corner of the op amps with a wire cutter, so I didn't use dip8 risers. How is the Sparkos SS3602 supposed to sound when it's synergizing with your headphones? On the Prestige LTD, I feel it's suppressing the brightness in the songs I listen to. I also feel like...

I installed the Sparkos SS3602 op amps on the XD05 Pro, and on first impression, it sounds kind of muffled. Is this how it's supposed to sound, or did I install it incorrectly? It sounds like there's a baritone filter.

Ah, thank you for your insight 🙏 I tried using the XD05 brand USB C to USB C cable with the extension cable for the external power source by plugging one end to a 5 volt phone charger and the other end to the XD05 Pro. And then I connected my phone to the XD05 Pro with another USB C to USB C...

Has anyone tried using the USB C to USB C cord that came with the XD05 Pro? The first time I used it to connect to my phone, it played one song, and then halfway into the second song, my Prestige LTD made a clipping noise and went silent, and the Tidal app on my phone was paused. When I clicked...
