Sony WF-1000XM5
Yes, there is a profile. I recently got a pair of XM5s, after being a user of XM4s and loving them. The XM5s are an amazing improvement in so many ways. With the Wavelet target profile, compared to the XM4, it doesn't change in character nearly as drastically. In otherwards, Sony did a...- jt25741

USB Audio Player PRO (UAPP): 24- and 32-bit playback, ubiquitous USB audio support for Android
Thanks Nick24JJ, Appreciate the response. Well half good news, but I fear this feature is not working as well any more. When I used to test this on my V60, the sound did cut out with a significant pause, I may even had had to restart the track. Difference in sound was significant. I...- jt25741

USB Audio Player PRO (UAPP): 24- and 32-bit playback, ubiquitous USB audio support for Android
Hi UAPP Fans, do any of you happen to have a recent Samsung S23 or S23 Ultra and use the UAPP to listen to locally stored music library via LDAC connected Bluetooth and have tried the feature in UAPP/Settings/Internal Hires Driver/Use with Bluetooth Output( box checked). On my older LG V60...- jt25741

Sony WF-1000XM4 Impressions Thread
If your striving for neutral, personally I use AUVIO Large Silicon Tips and nothing has transformed the sound to a more neutral and pleasant/balanced experience than wavelet Auto-Eq selecting the WF-1000XM4. I do take a couple db off the top with a custom taper just because I prefer it a...- jt25741

LG V20 Sound Quality
Btw...my v20 fm radio works perfectly.....it's on Sprint Oreo. Even the v40 fm radio works fine with Pie update. So not all carriers disable it. I have only tried Sprint myself.- jt25741

USB Audio Player PRO (UAPP): 24- and 32-bit playback, ubiquitous USB audio support for Android
Hello Davy, Latest versions on Windows have minimum requirement for some USB connected Drives Shares for SMB v2 or higher. Now for these shared drives with my Hi-Res content, I can no longer mount. Setting allow CIFS 1.0 in the windows features list doesnt work any longer (for these USB...- jt25741

Amazon launches Music HD with lossless streaming
Qobuz just dropped a bomb on the market and took the gloves off. $15 for highest teir...head to head with Amazon. A bit more, library is not quite there yet, but they got the sound working with Audirvana and others (no resample).... so it plays well with others. I cancelled amazon and went...- jt25741

Amazon launches Music HD with lossless streaming
I was hoping for exclusive mode on Mac or PC as a minimum requirement for me to move onto this service after the special intro period. Since that is upon me in a month and nothing so far, I have cancelled now. I hope Amazon will listen to us audiophiles.... the difference with maintaining...- jt25741

Amazon launches Music HD with lossless streaming
The consistent approach I get from Amazon with any of my problems follows along these lines: Be nothing but courteous and respectful with the language used to the Customer (me). Always make sure to tell the customer how important they are to them, and how my satisfaction is a primary concern...- jt25741

Amazon launches Music HD with lossless streaming
Thanks for sharing this insightful post. I never would have thought the app was resampling just munged by the OS. At least they may be kinda trying at Amazon :) LoL- jt25741

Amazon launches Music HD with lossless streaming
Sadly what you say about the business reasons why not, are compelling. Nevertheless, maybe well see some integrations on the SW front somewhere, although it really doesnt likely matter much to Amazon.- jt25741

Amazon launches Music HD with lossless streaming
Everything sounds bad to me, as everything goes through the android mixer from Amazon Music (like Google Music too). Unless they take unpublished interfaces/hacks like UAPP does, they will need to make use of the MQA offload path as Tidal does with devices like LG. Here the ESS SoC is handed...- jt25741

Amazon launches Music HD with lossless streaming
Agree. Fundamentally the library in Amazon HD is more complete, larger and has more Hi-Def content than Tidal MQA. The UI is pretty impressive given how new the service is, provided Amazon continues to refine and add features. The somewhat trivial task of fixing the I/O to use exclusive mode...- jt25741

Not Sure about the V50, but the V40 has an FM radio. I use it from time to time.- jt25741
