iBasso DX300 Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 Octa-core 6GB RAM ******NEW Firmware 2.00 Android 11******
I am running the same config and trying to get my micro iDSD Signature to connect via the SPDIF input from the DX300 coaxial output. I'm using a Alo Audio Portable Optical | Mini Optical To Optical Connector to make the connection. No signal is reaching the DAC. I can use the iFi OTG cable and...- Jester

If you still love Etymotic ER4, this is the thread for you...
So much truth! You are all making me feel nostalgic with this thread dedicated to Etys, I think I'll go dig them out and listen to them again over the long weekend.- Jester

The Official 64 Audio Thread | apex & tia Technologies
Ripped Jeans is my Mötley Crüe cover band. I recently received the U18t and it's been years since I've invested in a new set of IEMs. Not sure I've got the words to describe the incredible sonic qualities they are delivering to my brain. Suffice to say it's a great start to a long and enjoyable...- Jester

Sony WF-1000XM4 Impressions Thread
I've been using this exact method since the mid 2000s to deliver the best seating of my IEMs regardless of the manufacturer. It simply works.- Jester

iBasso DX300 Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 Octa-core 6GB RAM ******NEW Firmware 2.00 Android 11******
Finally decided to pull the trigger on a iBasso DX300 to go with my iFi Audio Micro iDSD Signature and a pair of Focal Clears. Figured it was time to step it up and move past using my Pixel as a DAP. Thanksgiving just got a whole lot better.- Jester

Tidal Masters & MQA Thread!
I'm right there with you in regards to holding out for Spotify up'ing their game. Everything I've seen says by the end of the year, but there is less than a month and a half left and I just don't see it happening.- Jester

Austin Meet 8/29/21 (Sunday) (Cancelled)
I'd love to see this come back together and have a decent amount of new and old portable audio gear I'd be happy to bring. Having been on here since the mid 2000s, my collection is a bit all over the place.- Jester

The Astell & Kern AK240
With the possible pending release of a new high end DAP from Astell & Kern, they are quickly hitting the ceiling of diminishing returns. While there will always be a market for those who can afford $3,000+ DAP, it becomes a very small pool of buyers. Technology will continue to drive forward and...- Jester

P1 vs Caly M vs AK240?
While the storage of the AK240 may be larger than the P1, at the end of the day is it really that hard to swap out a MicroSD card? When you factor in the additional $1,500 to go from a P1 to a AK240, that is a pretty large leap to gain more storage and a balanced output. YMMV.- Jester

Sony's New 2014 flagship IEM - XBA Z5
I gave serious consideration to the AK240 to pair with my Z5 and ultimately ended up with a Cowon P1. While the balanced mode was one the things that drew me to the AK240, I just couldn't get past spending another $1,500 on a DAP to gain this feature. After over a week of listening to the Z5...- Jester

Cowon Plenue P1
I updated a few days ago and all seems to be running well. As I mentioned earlier the only problem I'm having is with the database. The tagging is presenting problems with the way the P1 indexes some of the files. Planning on contacting Cowen to report the issue and see what I should do to...- Jester

Cowon Plenue P1
I've been listening to the P1 for several days now via Sony's XBA-Z5 IEM. Enjoying the overall soundstage and crispness delivered from both the Z5 and the P1. Still many more hours of listening time ahead to determine the best settings for my listening needs. The one issue that I have...- Jester

Cowon Plenue P1
Ordered a Plenue P1 based on all of the reviews I've been reading, really looking forward to kicking the proverbial tires. What headphones or IEM are you using with this unit? Debating which route to take and very interested in getting some feedback.- Jester
