Dethonray Pegasus SG1 - BT DAC/Amp Combo

I would be interested if anybody has paired the SG1 with Hifiman's HE1000V2'S because that would be my use scenario?

By G5 you mean Topping G5? Does it beat all of these even if they are used in wired mode?
These two products couldn't be compared together, they are completely two species.
The sound of G5 is very similar to the PC sound card. It is powerful and the sound is clean, clean and clean, with little musicality. It is more suitable for IEM and headphone with thick and warm signature. Sg1 seems to be on the opposite side, soft, warm and smooth.

Maybe it is not a good combo, because he1000v2 is a low sensitivity headphone, which is more suitable for a powerful source. I've heard it on a desktop AMP,It's great! I don't know if portable devices could driven he1000v2 well. I tried to drive the Denon D9200 24ohm, 105db. The volume needs to reach 3 o'clock. He1000V2 should be more difficult than D9200, so DTR1+ or other powerful AMP maybe is a good choice.

Did dethonray update it's firmware because lot of people were saying that it's measurements are very bad and dethonray was forced to update the firmware to get better measurements but it also changed the sound character for worse. Can you confirm it?

I saw MEASUREMENT on this thread too. I also worried about sg1 and contacted DETHONRAY. I was told that they were fixing hardware and software because of a small problem in mass production. So my sg1 was delayed more than a week, and finally I got the latest version. Someone mentioned that the change was worse?
what's the better version? That's ridiculous!

I have BTR7, g5 and sg1. It doesn't take long to compare the timbre. I think 10 minutes is enough.

People always like to spread negative news and feel that it can prevent and attack a really good product. I really couldn't understand that most people don't even hear it, they will say that someone said what happened.

Happy weekend, three favorite toys in 2022!The LO of DTR1+is very good. If USBDAC function is added to the design, it will be perfect! :darthsmile:

Hi can you compare it to some other players or DAC/AMP?
I have been a fan of D*RAY for several years. If you want to find a BT gear with good sound quality, just buy it directly. If you care about the pleasure brought by parameters, ASR is a good choice. I have AQ Dragonfly red , Mojo. This time, sg1 is more friendly to IEM, especially different firmware and different timbre. I use serenade because it is more suitable for my earphones.

I have the DTR-1+ and very satisfied with the sound quality, so I got the confidence to pre order SG-1 right after they released it, the sound quality is quite close to DTR-1+, but the convenience of BT make it took the place of DTR-1+ in my backpack.

I‘ve made the protection case for it, the frame is 3D printed with nylon, and carbon fiber plate for up and down side, now I'm not worry about any scratches on the nice aluminium case.

How about some comparisons with other players in terms of sound quality?
