New Dragonfly Black and Red Discussion
Anyone has issues with using the dragonfly with Tidal? When streaming mqa content it sounds distorted and I can see some changes in the light on the dragonfly, a very light flicker from pink to dark pink ( which you see when streaming mqa ). Also, the dragonfly will jump to max volume when I...- Cyral

Bowers&Wilkins new flagship the P9!
Anyone compared the red dragonfly with the b&w p9 lightning cable? I noticed quite a big improvement when using the dragonfly instead of the apple lightning cable.- Cyral

Samsung Galaxy S7 - Best next audiophile phone?
When I connect my usb dac, Onkyo ha-200, to the samsung s7 I hear clipping and popping. I've also experienced this with the s6 (android 6.0) The dac works fine with the note 4 ( android 5.1).

LG V10 : New ESS Chipped Flagship Android Phone from LG
I think you missed the step to unplug your headphones in your description. But the weird thing is, this method only worked for me the first day. When I try it now it just doesn't work. I have no idea why... Seems like this bug stopped bugging for some reason.- Cyral

LG V10 : New ESS Chipped Flagship Android Phone from LG
Thank you for the video. But so far I'am not lucky enough to trigger the high gain mode. I do have a question. If I trigger the high impedance mode will it stay in that mode when I unplug and re plug my headphones again? I also have a high impedance headphones, but when I pin the...- Cyral

New HTC One M8 audio review
I don't think that too much power really is the cause of the popping sound, it might help a bit but it's not the main reason. It feels good of course to say my Phone has soo much power that I can hear poor encoded tracks.. When I plug them in my pc with a high quality sound card I don't...- Cyral

New HTC One M8 audio review
Haha, never would've thought that too much power was a bad thing, makes me almost happy with the clipping... I just tested some flacs and mp3 320 tracks but still experience the same clipping. But I can confirm that it indeed seems to occur more in the lower region. For instance the...- Cyral

New HTC One M8 audio review
Yes, for instance normal earpods are a lot louder at 75% than my 80 ohm headphones. The volume without clipping is decent though, but I like to have the extra oomph. Still bothers me that the iphone 5s at max volume is a lot louder than the 75% of the htc one m8, with no clipping...- Cyral

New HTC One M8 audio review
I'am the person who posted on the xda forums and I can confirm that the latest htc update doesnt fix the problem. ( Before I was on 1.12) I also tested my old sennheiser hd 418 headphones and had the same result. However I didn't experience the poppin/clipping noise with the stock htc...- Cyral
