    Original Bifrost DAC obsolete?

    I have the original Bifrost Multibit DAC. SCH-04 04015091, It doesn't start with an A or B so I believe it is first Gen. I have it hooked up to a streamer playing Hi Res files off of Qobuz and am happy with the sound but I'm wondering with technology advancements should I look into upgrading...

    Low end. Cheap. Generic. Otherwise bang for buck cable thread!

    Anyone have any feedback on this cable? https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33025713825.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.75ff4c4dCqkTPi

    So it looks like the consensus is that the addition of the mic degrades sound quality. Is there any tests that have been done to back this up?

    Low end. Cheap. Generic. Otherwise bang for buck cable thread!

    Sorry for the noob question but I'm looking to get a replacement cable for Tin T2's and Blon 3's. I'm confused on 2.5, 3.5, 4.4, balanced, non balanced, etc...I will be using primarily with Android smartphones. Which should I get?

    LG V20 Sound Quality

    Thanks Guys....Too bad you need to keep the extension cable in. It would be nice if it kept memory of the higher impendence.

    LG V20 Sound Quality

    I just found a discussion in this thread. It references to get a 75 ohm adapter and an extension. I have Sennheiser HD580's which are 300 ohm impendence so is it accurate in saying that all I have to do is plug these in to activate high impendence mode without further setup?

    LG V20 Sound Quality

    35 ohms @ 93 db I'm guessing you have to root to initiate high impedence mode which I really don't want to deal with.

    LG V20 Sound Quality

    Can anyone comment on the volume from a V20 with Hifiman HE4XX? I just listened to this pairing and the amp struggled to get to higher listening volumes.

    LG V20 Sound Quality

    I'm looking to use the LG V20 as a hi-res-capable network streamer in a home loudspeaker system using Amazon HD. I got this idea from here. https://darko.audio/2019/10/lgs-v30-as-a-network-streamer-with-touchscreen/ The only issue is he is streaming Tidal using a remote control app. Does anyone...

    Best Smartphone for audiophile Part II (Updated: Jan 2020)

    Is there a limitation on Android phones outputting higher bitrate signals? Can the Axon 7 output more then 16/44 to an external DAC?
