iFi audio GO pod + IEMs = brilliant wireless sound on the GO!
To be fair, Go Pod not the only product on the market plagued by such issues. For any of those few tws models with ldac support, if you look around in user forums those are full of complaints. BT audio has its limits and YMMV.- toomasg

Astell&Kern new flagship A&Ultima SP2000
Would be better to use a 4.4mm female to 2.5mm 3.5mm male adapter (PW Audio, DDHifi, Effect Audio) with a 4.4mm-4.4mm cable. These use the 3.5mm connector for ground, not available via 2.5mm otherwise.- toomasg

I do notice the difference. If your iems are any good so should you. AAC from iPhone gets pretty close to LDAC 600/660, which is an achievement in itself. Its no match for 900/990.- toomasg

Here's the list of devices that support Snapdragon Sound https://www.aptx.com/product-listing?aptx_type=766. Probably incomplete as it's fairly safe to assume most devices running Snapdragon 8 have it. I'll save you the trouble, no daps in that category. Your best bet is a smartphone. Try...- toomasg

My findings - LDAC connection stability is much better indoors. Probably thanks to room walls acting as reflector for BT signal. Perhaps that's why some people are not noticing any issues in their usage scenarios. Outdoors connection stability dependent on obstacles between the source and the...- toomasg

Shanling M0 Pro - Ultra-Portable Hi-Fi Player, Now With Balanced Output!
Worth mentioning perhaps is that the M0 Pro own 3.5mm balanced output is designed in the way that it can be used with 3.5mm unbalanced cable. The 3.5-4.4 adapter is meant strictly for connecting to 4.4mm balanced cables.- toomasg

@RickInHouston how is LDAC HQ connection stability with Go Pod? Official claim is that the source requires Snapdragon Sound support for that to work.- toomasg

What I mean is, if it's a compatibility issue then switching to another unit might not help. Having said that I’ve never had any issues with my w11 laptop.- toomasg

I’d recommend trying with several sources first. (HiRes) connection stability is very source-dependent, Snapdragon Sound greatly improves it, or if missing try different quality settings.- toomasg

It means they haven’t paired with each other yet. Take them out of the box, put close to each other, eventually they’ll go into pairing mode themselves.- toomasg

I suggest to correct information on the product homepage, to avoid wrong expectations - it states "LDAC and LHDC (HWA) are both supported to their maximum”.- toomasg

There are no shortcuts,Ifi should pick one option out of three: 1. Provide a convenient (for consumer) way to fix issues when they are encountered. 2. Invest a whole lot more into QA prior to releasing the product and then preach about seamless UX. It will never work though, there are always...- toomasg

Not challenging the concept in the least bit, just - 1. The full set of even those basic settings is available on just one mobile platform out of the two mainstream ones. iOS users are limited to an app version released more than a year ago and by the looks of it not receiving any further...- toomasg

There’s nothing preventing Ifi giving current iteration at least a decent app support with controls configuration. All down to priorities and team capabilities.- toomasg

Hey, question to those who's had some experience with connecting Go Pods to LHDC One - how did you achieve consistency in pairing across different sources (aindroid, win)? For me it's been kind of a hit and miss - sometimes it connects with no issues, sometimes have to try several times, switch...- toomasg

You can just disconnect the pods first ( long press until short beep) and then connect from other device.- toomasg
