    AudioQuest Dragonfly Review : Affordable, Outstanding, Tiny DAC / Amp

    Nice review! :) I got the RED and I really like it. Hearing that the battery drainage wasn't that much different after all between the two made the decision for me to go with RED. Really nice nifty little thing!

    I can agree that this nifty little thing is quite the bomb. I have now paired my Samsung S7, USB Audio Player Pro (highly recommended espacially for S7 owners!) and I have thrown Tomahawk, Onkyo IEM, Philips Fidelio X2, OPPO PM3 and various IEMS like Yamaha EP1000 etc. This little thing is...

    Samsung Galaxy S6 vs. S7 Phone for Audio

    Well, I have another new recommendation, try the USB Audio Player Pro, it isn't the best feature wise player, but boy did it do wonders for sound! Hope you get along well with your new phone!

    Samsung Galaxy S7 - Best next audiophile phone?

    Just wanted to add that I recently bought the USB Audio Player Pro for Android, and the sound really did kick it up a few notches. Really a big difference vetween USB APP and PowerAmp and others. If you get a Samsung S7, I highly recommend to invest a few dollars in the USB Audio Player Pro! It...

    Really nice review, well written. I have to say that my hour session with the cans yielded another result though. I found them to be far too expansive for the sound they delivered. Here in Sweden they cost roughly like apair of MP-3's or the Hifimann 400i. Well above the price range of HD650...

    Pioneer U-05 USB DAC/amp with dual ES9016

    I'm running it with my Hifimann 400i, sounds really nice and I'm very happy with how it sounds. Comparing with Oppo PM-3, Q701 and Fidelio X2, the 400i are really my go to cans for listening longer sessions.

    Samsung Galaxy S6 vs. S7 Phone for Audio

    Can't say, but if you buy a phone for music, the S7 would not be my recommendation. I have it and find the audio qulaity to be subpar of that of SONY and Oneplus phones by quite a noticeable bit. I haven't listened to the S6. If you are determined to get a Samsung (cause the S7 except sound...

    Samsung Galaxy S7 - Best next audiophile phone?

    Well, I have the Samsung Galaxy S7 (European version if that matters?), and I find the sound quality with headphones regardless of tweaking the eq and eextras to be quite bad to be honest. Comparing with Galaxy S4, Oneplus 2 and SONY Z2 the S7 just sounds like a cheap player. No immersion, no...

    A new DAP - the constant struggle of finding a good new player.

    I will have to check out the lurker mod I will have to look into Rockbox. Thank you for the reply, a lot of good feedback there! :) I'm starting  to do list.

    A new DAP - the constant struggle of finding a good new player.

    Haven't tried Rockbox - does it make a huge difference? Have to admit that I'm mostly an Album by Album listener so the UI doesn't really bother me on teh DX90   I have many happy memories with Cowon players befor and liked them. Been awhile since I ditched my Cowon D2 and got a DX50 and...

    A new DAP - the constant struggle of finding a good new player.

    Thanks both for explaining. So if the players I have mentioned are only sideways steps - what would be the step up? 901? Anything else that you could recommend or is the iBasso just very price-worthy contender that it is more sense to save up for better headphones? I mean, I won't shy away from...

    A new DAP - the constant struggle of finding a good new player.

    Thanks for the input - but based on what? Have you heard the Cayin or Colorfly? Those are the ones I have heard SHOULD sound great - not sure if as great or equal though. Just curious :)

    A new DAP - the constant struggle of finding a good new player.

    Hi fellow Head-FI:ers. I have a dilemma in picking out a new DAP. In that regard I see that many have the same problem lately. It is a sign of good fortune though, since it means that there are many new players on the market. So I'm sharing some of my thoughts and I will be grateful for any...

    Nice review, I own the HA-2 and I think you are spot on most of the things :) To me it works wonders when connected as a DAC/AMP and is OK when connected only as an AMP. Other than that I'm really happy with this one!

    V-MODA M-100 - Comfortable, or not?

    Just a quick question - did you experience the sound to change when you had the new XL cups? I bought the new XL cups since I have expereinced an increase in irritable ears over the years. So lately I have sold several headphones and the V-Moda I have gotten teh XL cushions for - but to me, the...
