AND... For me at least, if I have downloaded the album (in Tidal) then it will play that (at 48K) even if I choose it from under the Masters menu. If I "remove from downloaded" and select from the same menu, it plays in higher res. (Beatles White/96K). At the moment it seems that the higher...

BTW, I have gone into Tidal Settings and set both Streaming and Download sound quality to "Master". So far, online is (88K/96K)hires while downloaded/offline of same is 48k.

Wow. First, apologies that I said "The Rolling Stones" here instead of The Doors. ("Light My Fire"). In my rush to post, I was trying various artists to verify Tidal Master HiRes. The Rolling Stones' "Hot Rocks" is one I had tried also. The highest I am seeing in offline mode is 48K, (vs...

Tidal is back. I checked "wireless updates" on my Hiby R6 and one item says it fixes the Tidal/Quobuz downsampling issue. I updated, and now my Tidal Masters show higher than 44K. I deleted my downloaded albums and re-downloaded. "Light My Fire" Rolling Stones now showing 96K with green...

Good Friday with an old friend and a new one. Mad Dogs, FiiO X5-iii.

Thank-you very much.  First off, I was using the wrong coax cable, and after switching I was able to start comparing the Mojo contribution. Thanks to the other information you provided I see it is not a real comparison as the downsampling/limitations on coax output means such a comparison...

Meant to include this instead of the 10.3 comment: for some reason can't get the Mojo to work with either the coax or USB OTG +UAPP out on the X5. Is there a special setting for the mojo? More of an experiment than a need to alter the X5 output.

Definitely enjoying this pairing. FiiO X5iii + Vorzüge II Pure+ + Oppo PM-3. I am experiencing the FiiO + Mojo + iOS 10.3 cutout but the Vorzüge combo is an easy alternative. I have heard great things about the FiiO x5iii + FiiO A5 and if the stacking hardware from FiiO comes out will have to...

Trying out my new FiiO x5 iii with the Vorzüge Pure+ II and PM-3s. So far, the FiiO is doing much better in the battery department compared to the Onky DP-X1. Vocals aren't as forward on the FiiO. Just a different, not as analytical sound.

Yes Cayin i5. Auto-correct got me.

Any thought on the Canyon i5? I am interested but have not heard it yet. Am sure it will sound different from Onky/pioneer.

HE-350s came in today. Not burned in yet but they are starting off very nicely.

Obviously, Onkyo wants to provide a camera in their dp-x2 to fulfill the needs of head-fi members to post pictures of their IEMs and cans. Look for onkyo-branded lens-flare and other pic filters. Instead of face detection, look for logo-detecting auto-focus. :-)

My escape module for today. Shure 215 with FiiO balanced cable and dp-x1

Can anyone recommend a "starter" balanced iem to use with the dp-x1? I haven't tried the balanced out yet and only have single ended head/ear phones. Price under $200 by any chance? Thanks.
