Holy smokes the pairing with balanced zx300, Andromedas, direct source on, and FE plus is just sublime. Can it get any better than this by using dsee, dc phase analyzer etc? Curious to know your configurations as well folks but well done, MrWalkman! Breathing new life to this dap

Well, the Diablo IS advertised as the next generation all in one device that supersedes the BL/Signature. Heck the most recent discussion is around that highlighted bit about being compatible for Sensitive IEMs so yes, there is that expectation to also do whatever it does

Damn i envy that Arya 🤤 Hey can i ask a favor.. can you play a gapless album in tidal masters if there’s any audio cut outs?

Yes, it’s more than enough. If you need more headroom you can always use high gain

Has the audio cutouts in the first few seconds with MQA streaming in Tidal ever been fixed in the BL/Signature and now in Diablo? This has been a problem with Zen Dac and kills the enjoyment especially for gapless albums

Hello, I confirm getting audio cut offs using these conditions: For instance let's take K.G. by King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, which is in Tidal Masters and the entire record is gapless. Mac OS (Big Sur) Streaming of any Masters/MQA track or record using Tidal App Exclusive Mode...

sucks especially with gapless records. This has seemingly been ignored in this thread

Anyone else dealing with Tidal MQA cutting off at the beginning of tracks? it’s so annoying when playing gapless albums. I am on 5.3C firmware and can replicate it with either Mac OS, iPad or iPhone.

Hi Shane, sorry if it’s off topic.. is the balanced out of the ZX300 adequate for Sundara? Seems okay with the HD660s. I just ordered one so wanted to confirm, cheers

I just pulled the trigger for Sundara and iFi Zen Dac, so excited for these to be delivered! If anyone running is this pairing how is it? I’m holding off buying an amp just yet if this drives the cans properly in a balanced connection. I’m sure this will complement my current HD660S (which is...

Hello.. i have no way to test it as i can only buy online so i have a question. Can i connect thiis directly via usb c to an iPad pro? I have a usb c to usb 3 adapter on hand. Strangely, my Sony ZX300 via dac mode doesn’t work this way. I can connect to a topping e30/L30 just fine to the iPad.

I wonder what’s the headphone output impedance? Curious to see how this performs with sensitive IEMs like Andromedas

hey folks - where can i find the serial number for it? Not sure if it's in the box or in the headphone itself

holy crap i feel bad for those who bought the fakes.......

I have actually seen these going around by about ~600-650 USD in major audiophile facebook groups as far back as June 2019.. no box, no cables, just the shells by themselves. I would look for a refund if you bought one of these...
