how do u rate note 2 hp out compared to n8 or 808 nz mate
Sounds incredible to me. And for some reason I prefer to use the Note 2 DAC rather than bother with USB OTG cables and use the built in Leckerton DAC.

Could you tell me what connection you are using on your Leckerton - is it the usb or the coaxial cable? - I want to play 24/96 music which isn't possible through the usb
My Westone UM1s hiss when there is no sound and during low volume sounds/music. Should i buy a cheap USB DAC or will an impedance adapter to get rid of the hiss?
I think that's the usual Android audio engine hiss. I'm yet to hear an Android smartphone with a background as pitch black as the iPhone one.
That said i found bearable the Note 2 hiss (Even with my sensitive UM3x)
Anyway since it's a headphone out amp management issue i think that through USB you'll get rid of it.
You do not really understand something unless you can explain it to your grandmother
Reporting back here for people having similar problems. I went to the pro audio shop and tried a couple dacs. While they did eliminate the noise. Its not worth paying nearly 100 to eliminate noise. I tried a resistance adapter and it worked perfectly. Zero noise and just 6 dollars. While I was there I plugged the um3x into my note 2 and it also had noise. So the adapter is necessary for it also. Interestingly the triple fi 10s had no noise without the adapter.
Not sure if it was mentioned but is it possible to just get an audio line out via the usb and amp it? From what I've been reading, it may not be worth having a separate DAC altogether with the Note II.
