I'm running original android 6 with lurker mod on mine. With uapp running tidal, gets me direct dac control. I very have little hiccups with mine running this setup, does get laggy with input changes. I tried to just give it sec to respond. For me I can live with that for what you get at used...

For those of you interested, the schiit vali 2 with the stock tube pair pretty nicely with these. Tames the highs just a smidge and brings some Tubey ness to the sound.

I'm running a shiit vali 2 with a we396a. this setup for me is very nice and not to much doe. I thought the 400i felt a bit sterile and this combos breathes some life in them. I also put zmf sheepskins on there. With those two together I got the highs to settle a bit, little more bass witb the...

Is there any way you share your eq settings. I am for life of me cannot eq. I've had mine for a few days and am impressed. I would much appreciate it

Nice to know. It's a shame the amp is wesk. I'll probably troll the used amp section here and keep looking.

Thanks for the heads up. For 250 there a lot out there tube wise to look at. I would just like try a little Tubey sound with these.

for those of you with the amp9. what are your thoughts on it. ive been toying with the ideas of a tube amp for my 400i's.

I just went through this wanting some planars to try. I'm using the dx150 and ordered a he400i and I think they pair very well together. I got the 400i open box from hifiman for like 120. For that price there hard to beat. I run with no eq and the pair sound great to me. I would say bass is...

yup. that's my bad. sorry folks.

i have a question. im running lurker on a dx150 and using uapp for streaming tidal. now uapp says it will run on its hi res audio driver, but i also have usb audio as well. now when i run usb audio with uapp it shows usb dac. when i run uapp without usb audio it says direct. what's the...

Nodding the hardware sounds like more then I'd be willing to do.

I thinks it's just usb audio that being finicky. Not a 100 percent sure if I need to use it. It says usb dac when I go through usb audio and direct just when I use uapp. Not sure if theres a difference.

I'm running lurker with android 6. Most issues is just little things. I run tidal through uapp with usb audio. USB audio seems to be finicky. sometimes electrical devices don't like to play nice with me. Sq though is fantastic.

I just nabbed a used one and am running a 400i with it and its great. A shame the software can be a bit finicky. but less then 500 for the dap and headphone combo is hard to beat.
