Hello gents. Anyone know if the Fostex HP-P1 works with the LG G3 from AT&T (D850)? Tried searching but no seemed to mention a definitive "YES".

Thank you. I added rather than subtracted :laughing:

Where are the updates? I have been waiting patiently in PA for something more official.... but I've had enough. Cmon folks! Somebody....

Good question. Delta Sigma DACs I believe. Maybe a pro audio gent/gal can back me up or correct me. I am pretty sure there are just a handful of stand-alone DACs south of $1000 because the money/demand is of components upstream, i.e., the ADCs rather than the DACs. Makes sense TBH. I always...

I'm assuming you tried the production/retail version?

I am going to presume you were replying to my post. So if yes, thanks. I look forward to it too.

I am moving to Athens in August so please do let me know if there's another one like this happening. If not, I will be there next year but I do hope to see some good photos. Have fun.

Cheers for this. I have been curious about what would be a good complement to the 400i but could you say in what sense the HD650 represents an upgrade?    The reason I ask is because I have only once heard the HD650s for a few minutes through a Woo Audio tube amp. IIRC, I found it to have a...

@swspiers +1 to his POV as I have a similar experience, albeit with the iPad Air.    which says a lot about the iPad. But thinking out aloud, I'm wondering if this means that you need a really good amp like the Lyr and co. to take the 400i to the 'next' level.   

FWIW, I use the DC-1 with my Fidelio L1s and I am usually listening at the -20 to -40 setting on the DC-1 with absolutely no hissing whatsoever. The X2s should be even easier because according to Innerfidelity, at 35 Ohms, you need ~0.089 VRMS to reach 90 dB SPL on the X2, compared to the L1s...

Cheer for this.

True I agree and second your mythbuster request. I too dont understand how it changes sound except for the fact that they provide more voltage swing and lower (audible?) distortion.     Just thought I'd add a little more. IIRC, most (good) USB audio recording interfaces these...

Makes sense. I'm in PA so things are slightly colder. Maybe Emo should start adding the space heater/hand warmer on its DC-1 features list. 

Has anybody done a comparo between the Garage1217, Vali and Magni amps? Thanks in advance

@Sal1950 I had the same issue originally. In fact, I remember a mild panic when i could smell plastic burning when I bought it initially. IIRC, after reading some of Keith's posts over on the Emotiva forum, I realized that in fact, this is normal behaviour and one should be worried if it does...

+1 to that. I have been reading Keith's posts over in the DAC side of things as well and on Emotiva's own forum. Good stuff. Thank you. I hope you keep it up Keith. Patience is a virtue with these endeavours which is NEVER easy to come by, leave alone sustain.  I know I need clarity to see...

This is GOLD Keith. I am a grown man but I am not afraid to say this- I love Emotiva! I get gooey eyed when I see the DC-1 on my media center every morning and the proudest day of my audiohead life was when my 6-year old said this- "daddy, can I listen to some Lego Chima music on the DC-1 DAC"...

Hello folks. FYI, the E5 is on Massdrop for USD 149.99 (lowest join price). My dilemma- I'm torn between a straight up headphone amp like the Fiio E12 and a USB/DAC amp like the E5 to use with my phone on the go. I have an LG G3 which according to gsmarena has very good audio output already via...

In a sense... but then you learn to be optimistic. I just try and remember the days she actually put the connectors on and forget the rest :joy:

This may sound like overkill but recently I had a question and I eventually had to email Auralic's owner, Xuanqian Wang directly and he was great. Strangely, I couldn't find a thread for the amp on headfi

Cool thread. Sub'd
