    iPhone/iPod/DAC/Apple Music/Sonos Help

    As noted in prior threads, I'm switching from Android/PC to Apple. I am a heavy Sonos user at home and mobile music using Shure SE846, Fioo M11 and Amazon Music HD. My Fiio M11 doesn't do Apple Music - and Amazon sucks with Sonos. But otherwise happy with prior setup. I like Apple Music so...

    Alternative to Fiio M11 for Apple Music?

    I've been pretty happy with my M11 playing FLAC and Amazon Music HD, using Shure SE 846 phones. But I'm considering converting from Amazon to Apple Music - -and the M11 won't do Apple Music. What do you recommend that will play well with Apple Music (streaming), takes SD cards, and - most...

    Qoboz vs Tidal -- radio/flow-type ability?

    I'm a long-time Deezer user and like the Flow function - for those not familiar, it purports to learn your likes/dislikes based on whether you thumbs up/down various songs and then creates a dynamic playlist from the results. Kind of like a personal radio station. I'm currently doing the...

    LG G2, iPhone 5s, Samsung S4, HTC one - best SQ for lossless straight to IEM

    Sorry if this has been discussed but I haven't found a thread addressing this directly.  I need a new phone and my only criteria is sound quality playing FLAC or ALAC directly into my Shure SE530.  I like clarity and often play at high volumes, listening mainly to rock, alt-folk/country...

    Portable USB DAC/AMP with RCA Out

    I'm looking for a unit that will primarily serve as the DAC for my home setup (laptop into DAC into arcam integrated) but can do double duty as a portable (either laptop or ipod into DAC to headphones). So, it needs USB in, line in (for ipod), headphone out and RCA out. Size and sound quality...
