Comment by 'macaddicted' in item 'Questyle M15i — Mobile Headphone Amp & DAC'
Got mine. I have an M3X, which I like a lot, but couldn’t find an android music app I was comfortable with, so it is largely unused. Yes, after 25 years, I’m fully enclosed in the Apple walled garden; four devices go off when I get a phone call. I wish I could give more of a full review, but I...- macaddicted

Shanling M3X Portable Player - Our smallest Android Player
No. The walled garden keeps us in. However… If you have playlists in Apple Music you can output the list as an m3u, take that to a text editor to change the file path for the m3x. Or you could download the Apple Music app to the M3x.- macaddicted

Yeah, it works great. Used it for my e-ink reader and was planning on putting some files on the player. Glad I don’t have to worry about it working.- macaddicted

Mid priced IEM cables thread.
FWIW xinhs is offering this graphene cable for $59.16 (link), and this graphene cable, which looks startling similar, for $110.95 (link). From what I can tell they’re just messing with me now.- macaddicted

I shall try. -if you’re using a single post connector you have the option of using one or both DACs. Using both is, IIRC, the default mode for balanced connectors. Using both DACs uses more power, so less battery time. -beyond me too… -I assume it’s coming through from Android. It’s illegal...- macaddicted

OK, a question based on my equipment: Shanling M3x, Penon GS849 cable w/3.5mm, Moondrop Blessing 2. Just got the M3x today and it’s like nothing I’ve ever heard before. It ain’t choir of angels, but its moving that way. I looked at KB Ear last night on aliexpress and picked out some cables to...- macaddicted

Oh my. Um, just, oh my. I’m not one for writing reviews, but I had to write a reaction. BTW: Shanling M3x, Moondrop Blessing 2 iem, Penon GS849 3.5mm cable. So obviously my M3x arrived today. Unfortunately we’re having work done on our house, and as the power was iffy my NAS is shut down...- macaddicted

Mid priced IEM cables thread.
Yeah, didn’t know there’s a difference. The DAP is a Shanling M3x with a 3.5mm “regular (?)” port and a 4.4mm balanced port. So it’s the 4.4mm port. And if you’ll excuse me I’m off to the library to do some learnin’.- macaddicted

See, then I bought my first “real (?)” non-iOS DAP with a balanced port. As I’ve found a cable I like, but doesn’t work with the balanced port, I’m in something of a quandary.- macaddicted

Geez, I’ve been trying to find this post. THANK YOU I saw this shortly after getting my Blessing 2. Found the cable on ‘bay. This setup is what I’ve been looking for. Thank you for the idea.- macaddicted

Moondrop in-ear monitors Impressions Thread
Somewhere there is a thread that says the Blessing 2 and a Penon GS849 is a great combo. As I can’t seem to figure out where I saw it I want to say: THANK YOU It really is the type of set-up I was looking for. And then I bought a DAP with a balanced port. Sigh. Any balanced cables, say from...- macaddicted

Shanling M3X Portable Player - Our smallest Android Player
So glad I found this thread. A day after I placed my order... I’m going to use this with my Blessing 2, for which I have a Penon GS849 cable. First question: Are there any issues I should look to take care of with the my IEM setup and the Shanling? Second: I’ve never had a balanced cable...- macaddicted

Westone W60 Impressions Thread
I can only speak to the change qualitatively. I had 4Rs until my dog found them on my night stand. The W60 is, well, more. More depth, more breadth, more clarity. It felt like listening to a great music system, taking the cotton out of your ears, and thinking "where'd that come from (and why was...- macaddicted
