    Hifiman DEVA - Official Thread

    I got my Deva back from warranty with a replacement unit, and it's all good again. Using the same Bluemini2 unit (not replaced), I'm still struck by how well matched the DAC/Amp is for these cans. I also picked up the AliExpress Earmax balanced cable, and it's an improvement over the stock...

    Hifiman DEVA - Official Thread

    Very tempting. My Deva is still in the shop awaiting replacement (hopefully next week!). This is not much more expensive than the original model. I do like the black, and I'm intrigued by the combo R2R DAC and stealth magnets.

    Hifiman DEVA - Official Thread

    Unfortunately the left channel driver is no longer working on my Deva. It's silent whether connected by cable or bluemini. I contacted customer service at Hifiman, and I'm crossing my fingers that they can find a solution or replace them. I love these cans, and I miss using them already! I'm...

    Thanks -- that's good to know. The interconnect looked bulky but if it's tiny, that might be a good solution. I ordered the earmax cable from aliexpress. We'll see how it performs.

    Hifiman DEVA - Official Thread

    Just updating my earlier post. I now have a Fiio M11, which also runs android & UAPP. I have the same problem connecting the Deva bluemini by USB to the M11 that I had with my Pixel phone. Davy from UAPP dev support said he would contact HifiMan to try to find a solution but I haven't heard...

    Hifiman DEVA - Official Thread

    I realize I'm reviving an old post but I'm looking to try my Devas (which I LOVE) with a balanced input so I was searching for cable recommendations. The link below is to a cable that terminates with a mini-XLR plug. I'd like to avoid the interconnect solution, so I'm looking for a balanced...

    Hifiman DEVA - Official Thread

    Yes, they removed that feature, unfortunately. Here's what Hifiman customer service said in response to my question: I don't have another android device that will run UAPP. My old phone is a Pixel 4a but the app is not supported on that device. Davy from UAPP devs got in touch and has some...

    Hifiman DEVA - Official Thread

    Thanks for the suggestion. I can't figure out how to turn off charging mode on the Bluemini II. I sent a note to Hifiman customer service about this question but I haven't heard back yet. I noticed in the product announcements that it said there was a way to disengage the charging circuit...

    Hifiman DEVA - Official Thread

    I got these about a week ago direct from the Hifiman store. I have the newer model with the Bluemini II module. It's my first planar headphone and I love it. I've been mostly listening wired with my desktop setup (Topping D10s DAC and HeadAmp Gilmore Lite amp), and the sound is great. I've...

    ISO DIYer in DC/VA for help with headphone repair/re-cable

    I have 2 pairs of headphones that I like but that are not worth a lot of money:  AKG K240 Sextett (LP) and iGrado.  Both have intermittent connection issues that suggest they need some work with a soldering iron, but those things scare me!  (More to the point, I'd be likely to damage the cans...

    Grados spotted on USA Network

    But he pronounced the name Grado with a short a (Grahdoe), rather than the long a preferred by the family that owns the eponymous company (Gradeoe).  Lost credibility (as with much else in the show).
