Hi everyone, I'm new to head-fi. Always referred to the forums for a lot of things, but posting for the first time. I recently purchased a Cayin N5ii DAP and its pretty good. I have added a 128gb sd card in it. As for 3rd party apps, I have Tidal & Spotify. I can save my offline songs and...

Just wanted to share an equalizer app I recently tried. For a while, I've been looking for a good equalizer app that offers more control than the standard options out there AND works with Spotify. Most of them have 5 frequency bands and thus limited control in sound modification. I tried one...

Has anyone seen any reviews of USB C > headphone dongles? I just got Pixel 2, and the Google one is decent but not great out of the box. There is a guy over on XDA who has been reviewing some. See... https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-2-xl/how-to/pixel-usb-c-audio-measurements-t3691535 I...

Hey everyone, I'm new to Head-Fi and I'm so excited to be a part of this community! I hope any more "established" members will help me get "up to speed" on anything I might benefit from knowing. So as for my question: I'm using an Android phone (Note 8) with a USB-C output going into the USB...

Hey guys greetings! Can you guys recommend a EQ for Android on a system level to be used with Spotify? I'm using Android 7.0 btw. On desktop I use Equalizer APO with Peace UI, wish there was something similar on Android. Cheers!

I picked up the AKG N20NC in-ears a few months ago, partially because the remote has a switch that makes it compatible with iOS (I have an iPad Air 2, be gentle) and Android (Tmobile Galaxy S7, stock and unrooted). But I found out a few weeks later that the + volume sometimes would actually...

Hello everyone, I am trying to upgrade from my Fiio E07K, these are the DAC's that, at least on paper and general opinion, seem the best for the price, which one would you think is the best choice? Also, which ones do you think you would add to consider? Link to the excel file...

I'd like to minimize my everyday-carry, play it all in one. Now I am into HiFi cellphones like MeizuPro5, LG V20, VivoXplay6. Not considering on phone functions, simply focusing on sound quality, which is the best？？？

I recently bought the audioquest dragonfly black DAC which connects via USB 2. The product is compatible with android with a proper adapter and my connection is MicroUSB B. Since I bought this fairly expensive DAC, connected to my fairly expensive Shure SE425 earphones, i don't want a 0.2$...

Hi head-fi, I'm looking at buying my first DAC and have seen good reviews of the Fulla 2. I'm pretty much sold on it, apart from the fact that I need to know if my Galaxy S7 will be able to power it WITHOUT external power (ie, I connect only two cables to the full: data+power, and headphones)...

As discussed in the Android USB audio thread, thought I would start a thread about this great Android app so we could separate the discussion about it a bit from the general USB audio thread.   For those of us with Android devices this app is hugely important for a few reasons.   The first...
