Any idea on how the AD would sound with a Pico DAC/AMP? :)

Does anyone recommended these headphones for Trance and Vocal Trance?

MrSpeakers (Dan) Do you think that a Fiio e17 will drive the AD alright? I plan on upgrading to the Hifi-M8 in the future, but I want to know if the Fiio will be ok. Thanks!

I think I want to just buy my own adapter rather than making it myself. Links anyone?

I was looking for a cable that I can connect to my Hifi-M8 to my HTC One. Where can I find a USB A to Micro USB like in the picture with the Galaxy S4?

What is the difference between the 4-Pin XLR and the 1/4 inch cable? Is there a significant sound difference?

Well in that case it isn't the adapter if it is recognized. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 4

Alright well I don't think you need a custom kernel. You have it set on USB mode on the fiio correct? Keep trying or try doing research on Google. Maybe you could have a bad OTG adapter, that happened to me...:( Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 4

Try using StickMount by Chainfire on the Play Store. The free one should do just fine. If this doesn't work then let me know, you may need a custom kernal, which I can help you with.  All you need to do is give Super SU permission for the app. Then, plug in your OTG adapter with the mini usb...

Are you rooted? You must have root with a Custom Kernel that allows OTG adapter. Rooting isn't that difficult, just is a little different. Without a kernel that allows OTG adapter support, you can't do it.    Edit: On the S3 you could do this stock, but now I think Samsung has decided to not...

I love these headphones sooo much! My only gripe with them is the cable. I have no idea why they made the cord so flimsy.  I am going to be returning these for the Alpha Dogs by MrSpeakers soon. Overall I think that these are wonderful closed headphones that would appeal to almost everyone!

Warranty would be your best bet. Contact the place that you bought it from. Other than that, I don't know what to tell you. Fiio was a pain in the rectum for me to contact. Ask around here on the forums too. Never know, maybe someone knows how to repair it.

I have had nothing to say but great things with the splitter that I got from amazon. It has individual volume controls and its pretty reliable! I agree with Mad Max, don't buy the cheap ones, they will short out overtime. Cheers!   Here is the...

I am wondering how much power the alpha dogs really need. What are your opinions on a JDS Labs ODAC and C5 rig?  My source would be my phone which is a HTC One. Any better options? Cheers! 

I used my S3 with OTG adapter for a while with the E17 on USB mode. It was nice. Just make sure that your adapter wasn't made poorly... Mine was 

What are your first impressions on the Alpha Dogs?

I think I wanna stay in a price range of under $600 dollars. Don't really want a new source if I don't need one. I plan on using an OTG adapter to work with the DAC.

So I am looking for a good portable rig to drive these. Would a HTC One->JDS Labs Standalone ODAC->JDS Labs C5 be good? What would be a better portable rig?

I'm using the Fiio e17 with my Shure se535 and Sennheiser Momentum. Looking for a better amp because I have never really gotten into really high fidelity full sized headphones. Just needs to be somewhat portable. Not really wanting to be a sophomore in high school bringing a desktop amp with a...

What would you consider to be ballsy portable amp? I am looking for something that can really make these shine.

Just wondering, would a Fiio e17 or e12 be sufficient to power these?
