As for me..I pretty sure that 2.5 jack is the best for iem because of size and weight. So for the cold side balanced output it is still the most suitable...on pair with unbalanced 3.5. But on the hot side 4.4 is maybe the better option instead of huge XLR. So if we go this way the total unit...

Absolutely agree with you!

Why 4.4? I think a smaller 2.5 jack is more convenient and needs less place. 2 mgoodman, can we expect LDAC in current m8 v2 or it's for the next products? Or if everything is OK with Sony, we will get an firmware update? Also, find some problem in switching between usb and BT inputs. When I...

Got mine today. First sound impression is very good :)

It's the ordinary recommendation to set max volume on the source to get max BT quality

So it's the QUESTION from the beginning..why did not CEntrance include LDAC codec and proper BT chipset, which is everywhere nowdays, even in chip chinese daps and receivers <$50

When the pre-order started, there was info about shipping. 1 The text on the pre-order page said that the shipping fee will be collected later. 2 And they will work with carriers to make special taxes for contributors. So everything is normal with the first statement. But the second part is not...

Really interesting, what if it was ldac instead of aptx Do not understand why centrance does not include LDAC codec. Because the difference between aptx and ldac is dramatic.

Hmm...I think it's because I had an earlier order that was cancelled by myself and was reopened later (2 or 3 months maybe) So the order number is higher but in the cue I still have an old place (thanks to centrance :) Sorry for complicated situation. Do not pay attention on my order number

Got my shipping notification. Order 2313

Yes, i think so too...a little bit warm, especially on Lows, which are a little weak and soft. have qudelix for 3-4 days now...Before the qudelix i had fiio btr5. what can i say. Btr5 sounds a little better overall (2.5 balance vs 2.5 balance), but has different sound signature: more Lean...

So...maybe your are right...no LDAC / APTX-HD to reduce final cost...but i think it's not so expensive, because there are many chinese and korean dacs and even daps with that codecs for about ~$100. but 2x-3x more bitrate could be much better :frowning2: hope upsampling and re-clocking tweeks...

So if we talk about bluetooth...we have only aac/aptX and NOT aptX-HD / LDAC?

Recent update from Michael. January prototype: First Impressions I was given the prototype you see in these pictures and have been listening to it over the last several days. I noticed several things. Sound quality is impressive. Noise is pitch black on the Cool side and Power is abundant on...
