Then it would be better just get a good BT DAP and use whatever IEM please me, right? Thank you for your help.

How can I check the BT audio quality? Using Mi 5s with LG G6 earbuds, but want to jump to Mi 6 128/6GB + Meizu EP52. I like smaller devices and Mi 6 has great support in XDA Forum.

I didn't think that Huawei would do this, at the same time I'm glad to know they're engaging on this. I'm no audiofile, pretty happy with my Philips SHE3700 driven by Xperia X on Deezer. Would the Meizu EP2X be a good upgrade? Does anyone used it yet?

I tested 3 terminal apps and all showed "Unknown ID: tinymix"

Thank you for your reply. Unfotunately I coundn't find this Tinymix anywhere, even googled it. Do you have any link to share?

Guys, how do I know if the dedicated DAC is kicking? I use low impedance iems so the extra amp isn't that important. I know that Neutron, Poweramp, Jetaudio and others has the ability to use the dedicated DAC, but i'm planning on use the HTC Music app along with ViperFX.

Do you think that the Axon 7 mini is better than One M8? Audio and phone wise. Does the V4A works with the DAC?

Actually that's not a guarantee, right now using an One M8 that couldn't get V4A, ported Dolby Atmos from Axon 7 or Le Max 3 or AM3D Zirene to work even though Magisk pointed as installed. Best way to know is making the ajustments and feeling the difference.

Don't know why I can't accept the fact that everytime I'm gonna listen to some music I need to plug some USB DAC. I'm more practical, so for the price of G5 Plus I would rather get an One M9 to use with V4A or Sauron audio mods. Simpler with great audio quality too.

Maybe here at head-fi it won't be enough but for the majority the 64/128GB is sufficient. For me it is, for example. OIS for dual cameras are new and not always that much nneeded unless you record a lot of videos. For me Sony just need a new design with bezeless display.

The especifications of the Cirrus Logic DAC it has impedance sensitivity, so I imagine it won't need a hi-fi option. Despite some endeavor with ESS Meizu has a history using Cirrus Logic chips.

Do you know the model of the CL chip S7 uses? Yep, me too. Even though Sony didn't put any additional audio hardware on the XZ1 series it looks like they explored the software to the fullest. The only thing Sony needs now is to put big screens with little bezels and is good to go.

Sony never put any dedicated DAC nor any on it's devices, I wouldn't expect anything by now. I know the Exynos S7 has a CL DAC but never heard of an amp.

At What HiFi?, they seem to evaluate well the sound of smartphones. They never mention output power though and I know the Xperia series aren't powerful, but for one who comes from an Xperia Z first get the Z5 is a good improvement. Also I recommended the Z5 based on the time the guy has the Z...

No man LOL Xiaomi Hybrid is the dual driver version of the HD Pro, that said my question was all about iems to use with the M7. Regarding the player it seems you don't use any local storage, always streaming. I prefer the local even with only 32GB, for 320kbps MP3 it's enough. I plan to get some...
