Well I have deticated A/V room isolated from rest of the hause in the country and good neighbours so I can shat out whenever I please, still don't do it often. It's nothing special and on small side half treated acussticaly but with lot of effort very nice sounding. Got bored a bit so bought...

Most anaemic EU USB C is the best for such high sensitive IEM's and Headphones keaping SINAD about 80 dB on 76 dB SPL level for AH-D5200. It's dirty cheap, outputs only 0.5V and doesn't last for long but at 10 $/€ hard to complain. There are better both dongles and desktop DAC's in that regards...

@jeejack we nead a confirmation of that with firmware flashing! Both me and other people along with curious crowd at ASR.

Advice is to put a 2mm layer of graphite (sheet or simply transformer varnish & graphite powder couple of layers) on LME49720 that you own and it will be the same as HA version with shielding which can't get in to close it.

My bad I meant Heresy Magni (3+) which is much better one (based on measurements). Recommendation for portable DAC stay regarding me and I level on SINAD measurements for all gear mentioned. Still would give Sonata HD Pro an advantage based on EMI rejection rate over the Meizu HiFi Pro...

Stock as it is it gives around 400 mW max @ 33 Ohm's mesured if you don't really want an portable amp rather take a look at Schiit Heresy (last version) or Atom desktop Amp's. Forgot DragonFly's they aren't worth it. In portable space take a look at TempoTec Sonata HD Pro or Meizu HiFi Pro...

Thanks in advance.

I whose thinking of getting one all do price isn't that good right now (70$) but I might snatch it on discount at the end of the month (Ali 10 years anniversary). But there is a design flaw with it. Not a big one nor that hard to correct. The LME49720 is very prone to picking up any kind of EMI...

The TempoTec Sonata iDSD Plus is a Hidizs HD1000 & their is plenty rewievs of it starting from hire. https://www.head-fi.org/showcase/hidizs-dh1000-sonata.22963/reviews Both pack the same hardware (DAC & AMP) but Plus version pack's two DAC's & amp's & has 2.5 mm balanced line out along with 3.5...

Try your luck with Edifier TWS1 for 35$.they aren't anything special but you do get more than you paid for. Or simply forget about TWS and buy a mini clip BT receiver.

Well with this last one's they at least integrated DAC/AMP which does get into entry lv audiophile club. Something alike Texas Instruments PCM5101 (just as reference). Needles to say neither driver's or codec follows up to those expectations. But many will copy it & some may just put things...

1. I don't know, probably yes but not TWS 2. Yes & a bit better but not with a headband but with mini dongle BT receiver or DAP with a clip & a size of box of matches. Shanlin UP2 BT receiver around 75~80$, Shanling M0 DAP & BT transceiver around 100$~100€. Anyway anything else with at least...

Toxic and rare would be a better word real "audiophile" grade material. Is it good? No not that much, both Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide (relatively vide available now) & Graphen (rare and hard to synthesis) are better. Cones are the most important parts & mids most important range. The passive...

That's a easy one. Buy decent quality memory foom ear tips (I prefer T200) & you gain on; comfort, isolation, fit & a bit more bass with any EMI's.

Yes 3026 is a bit newer & adopts WLCSP packing that makes it a bit smaller.
