    Luxury & Precision (LP) Portable USB DAC/AMP W1 and W2 (The new W2-131 Version is Available, Related Info on Post #1)

    I don’t see why not. I can try using the 3.5mm output going into the ALO Continental V5 later this evening. My concern would be emi or rfi given that both experience it with my iPhone.

    The Lightning cable that came with the W2 seem to have a very solid connection thought!

    I will let you know if the OEAudio sounds better or if it helps with the EMI interference on my iPhone 12 Pro once i get it. It seems that it could take up to 30 days for these cables to arrive to the US. I asked many questions to Musicteck and they answered the following: “We don’t use...

    That seems really cool! Do you get any RFI or EMI interference when having W2 right next to your phone? I get it on my iPhone 12 Pro and even the ferrite cable clips don't eliminate it completely. However, I wonder if using a magnetic plate, like on your second link, that covers the entire W2...

    Ok, figured out where I could see the resolution of each song on the iPad and iPhone. I am not sure why I didn't see the Losless icon right underneath the bar that shows the progress of the song! When I plug W2 to both devices and the music app is not open, it shows 16B on the W2. As soon as I...

    W2 shows the same 32B for all Apple Music tracks through iOS. I have turned on and of the highest setting multiple times but W2 still shows 32B. I wish Apple Music on iOS had a way to check the exact resolution of each file it’s playing. Anyone else having this same issue on iOS? I ask because I...

    Why do you like the sound of the Chronos better than the W2? I don’t have experience with that many dac/amps. I only have the NextDrive Spectra X, apple dongle, ALO Continental V5 (only an amp), W2, and the Sony NW-zx300. So far I’m liking W2 a lot. My first impression was how clean it sounds...

    Introducing the new Continental V5 portable tube amp

    Hi, has anyone been able to find a way to shield Continental V5 in order to avoid RFI EMI interference when using it near a cellphone? It's gotten increasingly more annoying to deal with this as turning on airplane mode won't allow to stream from Apple Music. I also have been using a medium-long...

    Yes, I really wanted to get the E1DA 9038s but eventually got the W2 because I mainly use Andromeda which are sensitive and often get hiss out of most sources. I also use the Sony EX1000 and the Sennheiser HD6xx. I would imagine the W2 can provide enough power for the Sennheiser but if not, I...

    Thanks for the info! I have never had a L&P product but based on what I have read here and on audiosciencereview, they seem to be on top of things and willing to listen to customers and implement changes quickly! I went from a 27 inch iMac to an M1 MacBook Air and so far it’s been a positive...

    I should receive the W2 in a few days so will also try it with my M1 Mac and M1 iPad. I also purchased the OEAudio OEOTG Digital Cable Lightning to USB-C to use the W2 with my iPhone. The guys at Musicteck measured the cables included with the W2 connected to an iPhone and confirmed what was...

    Is this issue particular to the W1-W2 or do many USB dac have issues connecting with the M1 macs?

    That looks awesome! I would love for a similar cable that works with iPhones. I looked on Aliexpress and found no results.

    I’m about to purchase the W2 from Musicteck and would like to get a device to measure the current draw when using the OTG cable to connect the W2 to an iPhone. Which device would you recommend for this? I have seen pictures of devices showing the current draw, I just don’t know what they are...
