This is an extra. Bought these years ago from Amazon US. I’m sure they still sell them. Search for 3.5 mm or 4.4 mm dust plugs.

Plug from Amazon to cap the port not being used. I think it looks cleaner.

It did improved This fixed it. Thanks!   Still can't figure the setting for foobar using wasapi.

I just received my Dragonfly Red and using it with 64Audio A12. I agree that the red is not dead silent but it is really really close. The 2 problems I have is the low volume I get when using the Red with the A12 and the bloated bass.   Don't get me wrong, the volume is enough for...

I ordered mine from Amazon as well. I've also checked if HiDEF Lifestyle is an authorized distributor which they are based from Audioquest website before ordering as they are the only one selling it with Amazon prime.

It's not 10% but coupon code GOLDENEARS406 will give you $10 off on a DF Red order at headphone.com.

My computer does not have the RCA digital output. My DAC can accept USB, Coax, and Optical (iBasso D10). I will also be needing the optical out to feed a receiver which only accepts an optical or coax.

I'm currently on the market for cheap soundcard with optical out that will be mainly used as a pass through for my DAC? Correct me if I'm wrong, but there is no difference in sound quality between a high end sound card and low/cheap one if I will be using the optical out of the sound card to the...

Hi guys, I'm currently on the market for a new AMP/DAC combo and I've drilled down my choices with the ff.: 1. Audio GD's Compass 2. Head Direct's Hifiman EF2 3. Headamp's Pico Edit: 4. iBasso D10 Cobra Haven't had much luck on finding a review comparing any of these four. I know it...
