which is better for movies the Sennheiser HD 201 or Koss PortaPro ? or any other headphones in the $20.00 $50.00 range     Thanks

the reason why decoding DTS and most other signals is so you can connect it to new tvs and Blu ray players to watch movies because most movies are recorded Dolby or DTS signal in which case you will get no sound at all from Modi because it is not able to decode mentioned signals this is why I...

I wouldn't expect it to have the best sound for $99 my only beef with the Modi is it doesn't have a Dolby/DTS decoder to hear the audio and a cheap China Fiio D07 does and can decode PCM/Dolby and DTS so shame on Schiit    cant afford Marantz costs an arm and a leg

you are missing the point ewallp99 IF a DAC is compatible with DOLBY/DTS/PCM then you will get at least sound coming from it all the time even if its not the best sound and if a DAC is only compatible with PCM meaning it can only decode PCM then you only get sound from it with PCM signal making...

so I was looking for a DAC I can connect to my Vali Amp I was going to get the Modi DAC but seems it is not compatible with DOLBY/DTS/PCM like the Fii0 D07 cheaper and better then Modi amp even the schiit tech said I should buy the FiiO D07 over the Modi DAC   Here is the conversation   ME...

how many earphones can this amp support with an audio splitter?

as long as it will decode Dolby Digital, PCM and DTS    "Product Description   Converts coaxial or optical digital audio input to analog stereo output over RCA and 3.5mm mini jack Supports all popular sample rates including 32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz and 96kHz, at up to 24-bit resolution Decodes...

this is what it says in my tvs manual about the digital audio output   ""When ATSC channel is selected, the output from the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack will be Dolby Digital. When channel is selected,   the output will be PCM. When playing a movie on movie maker, when sound is recorded in...

that was already recommended to me by another member the problem with it is it doesn't support Dolby digital or DTS only PCM so it will be working half the time only when the TV is outputting PCM    I think PCM is only cable TV channels and blu ray movies are Dolby or DTS

The cheapest schiit DAC that has optical in is the bifrost which 349.99( I wonder if its worth the money...sound improvements??) too expensive. The modi has USB input which is useless for me because my TV has only digital audio out    any recommendations for other DACs with digital input and...

this amp should have a digital input since RCA is a thing of the past or maybe its only meant for people with high end expensive equipment which have RCA outputs    new TVs and blu ray players don't have RCA outputs    i'm still looking for a digital audio to analog converter for this amp...

not sure if this will work with my TV after reading this review    "The FiiO D03K ONLY ACCEPTS a PCM optical digital audio input and this is clearly stated on the unit. However, my brand new LG 32 inch LED TV only outputs a Dolby optical audio output and can not be programmed to output PCM. If...

  I will be using digital audio out from the TV only option I have its a 2013 ST60 plasma there are no RCA outputs digital audio and of course HDMI output   I use the amp and TV mostly for movies  

are all digital to analog converters the same quality ? I need one to connect my TV to my Vali amp   any recommendations?     thanks
