    Introducing hip dac 3! The Legacy Continues!

    I have almost the same combo (S23, Hip DAC 3, HIDIZS MP145) And I have exactly the same beaviour. - The UAPP always shows the volume dialog - even when bit-perfect (but you have to activate it of course). When you use the Volume keys on the phone the bar changes but it has no effect - so...

    Introducing hip dac 3! The Legacy Continues!

    I recently bought this flask 😉 and here are my impressions: + Sound quality - this thing was made for my MP145 iems and blows my DC06pro out of the water. Slightly on the warmer side with it's silky smooth timbre - this is how my iems are meant to be listened to 😁 + ieMatch & high/low gain to...

    USB Audio Player PRO (UAPP): 24- and 32-bit playback, ubiquitous USB audio support for Android

    Hi there! I recently bought a ifi Hip DAC 3 and use it with a Galaxy S23. Everything runs fine so far but sometimes after plugging in and confirming the USB Access, UAPP shows a message that there was an error in opening the USB. I should check my Microphone permissions 🤨. This doesnt occur...

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

    If there is no such option forget my advice. Thought this option is common for all cirrus based Amps. Take a DC06pro and be happy. It has all important features (even MQA support for TIDAL), can drive almost everything (320 mW @ 32 Ohm @ 4.4mm), is very battery friendly and sounds crisp and...

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

    Did you install the UAC App from the iBasso site (the Play Store one is hopelessly outdated)? When I'm correct this Amp is based on a Cirrus DAC. Is there an amp option with "class A-B" and "class H"? Try "Class A-B" when possible. Otherwise try a DC06pro (ESS based) which is very battery...

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

    Bought the DC06 pro after having to send back my new KA5 due to some problems on my S23. I have to say that this amp is shielded very well against EMI intifferences and sounds awesome with my MP145. There are no problems while hearing music with the DC06 pro. Only thing which I find weird is...

    Hi there! Just got my iBasso DC06pro (MP145 / Galaxy S23). I have one question: Where is the leather case? This thing is a fingerprint magnet 😄😁. The DC04pro has them ^^

    OOOOK - after testing this Amp for a week now I'll send it back. Why? The EMI protection - especially in the EDGE / GSM band is just bad. Only workaround is flight-mode but then you cant do anything besides listening to this perfect sound of this little amp. And there is a bug - at least on my...

    Update: Fixed the problems with FiiO Music: - Non functional media button are fixed by deactivating gapless - Stuttering is fixed by activating the last checkbox under USB exclusive mode (... background bla...) So now this HF amp is perfect! 😁

    Back again with a few observations for the developers: I did a few tests with my KA5 / MP145 Combo and found out the following: Samsung Galaxy S23 (One UI 6.1) App Volume Max, KA5 Volume 22 / 60, low gain Samsung Music (not exclusive) Source KA5 display 44 khz 48 khz 48 khz...

    Update: Tried the FIIO music app again and everything is fine now. Sampling rate is as it is shown on usb player pro 😁. But it seems that the FIIO Control app is somehow tucked into the music app, so no reason to install the separate Control app (perhaps that caused problems). One question...

    The smartphone asked me if i want to use the app with the KA5 and I checked "Yes". Is this the exclusive mode? I also discovered that when I play tracks from the standard media player (Samsung Music) the shown sample rate on the display with normal m4a and mp3 (vbr) is always 48 khz and with...

    Bought a KA5 with a pair of MP145 (4,4 mm) for my Galaxy S23 yesterday and what should I say... A fine piece of craftmanship! There is no hiss or something else - the sound quality can only be limited by the listening material 😁. But one strange thing is that the fiio android music player...
