    USB-C to 3.5mm adapters (DAC) - Let's find the best

    I just bought the ka3 and can't get sound to come out of it. I tried going into developer settings but nothing changed when I changed the two USB settings. I'm on a pixel 6 any one figure out how to fix this?

    Another vancouver meet?

    Hifi centre downtown has pretty much every tolt headphone you'd want to sample. There is liquid sound and sound room on Broadway . Then headphone bar. You'll be able to try a massive amount of different gear.

    Rob watts DAC design talk

    I think he is saying - 200 dB (like when I turn on my amp it starts at - 75 dB) . I've never made a DAC I took only the first several physics courses in university and then lots of biomechanics but my focus was physiology in my first degree. So I'm familiar with labs and those that test...

    Rob watts DAC design talk

    The first one is within minutes of the start and the second one is before I shut it off at 17 minutes. If you've seen their mojo commercial it is really well done. With a much smaller budget they could film people getting blindfolded and have them listen to music with a switch box and say...

    Rob watts DAC design talk

    I think it's awesome that brands engage with both customers and potential customers. Having said that if he could prove that he could tell a difference and show his kid also noticing a difference than I would be very impressed and slightly embarrassed. I would also immediately go out and buy...

    Rob watts DAC design talk

    So I'm watching the video on YouTube from the 2017rmaf: Did this guy think he is a dolphin? He is suggesting he can hear down to 200 dB and that it is not only a slight difference but he says it makes a huge difference... BS detector went into hyperdrive there. Is this audible? Are the...

    Schiit Yggdrasil Impressions thread

    I think that Jude's post was very well thought out. Just trying to determine bias though. Could anyone shed light on other than free equipment what would Jude recieve from Schiit? I'm guessing they pay to be on this site and go to events and this is an important revenue generator for Jude but...

    Hugo 2 Listening Impressions (Including Sighted/Unsighted Testing)

    Great points. Our eyes actually do the same thing although for parts of the visual field that don't overlap you can sometimes make out the difference. I don't have large headphones that this is easy to do with but I tried it various ear buds and my ciem and it was easy to discern differences...

    Hugo 2 Listening Impressions (Including Sighted/Unsighted Testing)

    Another thought: What about volume matching, listening to mono recordings, and plugging headphones into two different amp/dacs at the same time (left in DAC one right in DAC two). This seems like a better test. (Obviously switching sides plugged in)

    Hugo 2 Listening Impressions (Including Sighted/Unsighted Testing)

    What about creating a sample track that has 2 identical 15 sec tracks back to back and has several different songs? You could even break it down to individual instruments and notes. Just a cymbal etc. I like where you guys are taking this. Could save people who are open minded lots of money...

    Hugo 2 Listening Impressions (Including Sighted/Unsighted Testing)

    When your assistant is changing from a/b you need them to sometimes hit the switches back and forth many times so that you're actually comparing a-a or b-b. That will make it more rigorous as theoretically you'd be able to tell when they're the same. Can you also do a test to see if using the...

    Sleeping headphones Kokoon

    Impressions? I tried sleeping with my JH 16 but too much pressure. Even the custom ear plugs were too much for side sleeping.

    Another vancouver meet?

    If it's not when my baby is due/arrives I'm in (eta July 8). If it is on a Saturday or Sunday night I could also host it in my clinic at Granville and 70 (free parking outside door). We have 7 treatment rooms so lots of potential for different setups. It would have to be after 6.

    Customs IEM and how long it last??

    My jh16 pros are I think 9 years old and still fit the same (one side has always slopped around a bit with running). I got them when they first came out. I'm on my 6th cord and after the first replacement cord JH audio started to really price gouge on the cord It went from I think$20 shipped...

    HiFiMAN 602: Talk about your initial impressions and specs

    I just tested my unit as a dac using media monkey.  The background is perfectly quite and it makes it sound better then when I use the 602 as a DAP.  I'm using JH 16.  Do other people notice this.  I am sending in the unit and that would be amazing if it was this quite with the DAP too.

    Audio-GD's NFB-10 or ROC + NFB-1 vs FUN

    If you were using a computer for a source would you still need to buy the digital interface for the NFB 10ES?  Is it basically the NFB 1 and ROC combined into one?

    Hifiman 602: buzzing after charging

    Thanks Fang, I'll miss it.  Wouldn't be too upset if you accidentally sent an 801 back instead

    Hifiman 602: buzzing after charging

    Further experimentation may give someone smart the answer.  If I play the unit for 2hrs after it has been fully charged then the noise goes away.  I checked along the way and after 1hr it was still buzzing.  With this information let anyone diagnose the problem?  It is going to suck sending this...
