    iFi iDSD Micro DSD512 / PCM768 DAC and Headphone Amp. Impressions, Reviews and Comments.

    I just tried the XBass switch in the combination with the 3D switch while playing GTA V.   I'm not sure if those options are made for playing games but I think it sounded really good.

    Hey guys,   Is there any central "guide" to the iDSD?   - I'm on the latest driver and firmware. - USB Streaming Mode is set to "Minimum Latency" - "Default Format" in windows "Speakers Properties" is set to max   => The LED is now Yellow.   I mainly play FLAC files with mpd.exe, using...

    iFi iDSD Micro DSD512 / PCM768 DAC and Headphone Amp. Impressions, Reviews and Comments.

                FYI - I've sent in the iDSD to an hifi shop in The Netherlands (http://www.daluso-audio.nl) at ifi's request. It had problems recognizing digital formats and to be recoginized by a computer. They exchanged all boards by new ones and also checked the digital format...

    Using a different cable with the supplied adapter makes it show up in osx but only delivers silence or crackling noise. I installed windows8 and the device showed up once after driver install (no sound) tried to replug but now im back to getting nothing at all but a white LED

    AudioQuest NightHawk Impressions and Discussion Thread

      I have no idea what I'm talking about. My limited English makes it hard for me to describe sound. I think the EL-8 sounded a bit more dark, deep and warm.

      I managed to get to step 4 but when the audio skipped I rebooted and now its remaining undetected again.   EDIT: Did the entire loop again (Deinstall, Reboot, Install, Reboot, Replug, Reboot, Change BIOS settings*, boot)   * XHCI Mode and XHCI Hand-off is now switched to off. Should I...

    iFi iDSD Micro DSD512 / PCM768 DAC and Headphone Amp. Impressions, Reviews and Comments.

    So I just bought this 2 days ago and I still haven't been able to get this thing to work. It doesn't get recognized in my MBPr mid-2012 (it doesn't even show up as an output option), the LED is white.   With my windows 7 pc I have no clue whatsoever.  At first I tried to install the latest...

    AudioQuest NightHawk Impressions and Discussion Thread

      I compared it to the Audeze EL-8. I would call the NightHawk more comfy. However the sound of the EL-8 was much better. The NightHawk imho sounded a little too bright and flat.

    I had the pleasure to test these today for a few minutes.  They are very comfortable and they used some cool stuff in order to make it so.

    USB Mic and USB DAC fighting each other.

    I think this is your problem. It's like plugging in a headset while your speakers are playing, the speakers go silent.   You need to disable/remove the samson speakers.

      Sure I don't listen to 1TB of music every day but I don't know what I'm going to be listening to so I'd like to have the option. I'm using an ipod classic and looking at all the options right now, modding it with an SSD and better battery looks like the perfect player to me.   Also, I...

    Ipod classic - rockbox - its happening.

    I couldn't get it to work with my car radio either (iOS iPhone / non-rockbox ipod does work). Toggling the car adapter mode didn't work. I'm getting an amp soon. All that matters is if that amp works.

    Ipod classic - rockbox - its happening.

    Load to RAM loads the database into the RAM of the device, allows for faster navigation.   Is there a setting that toggles docking or external dac support? If I plug my iPod in it goes into USB mode. When I press the menu+select key while docking it doesn't go into usb mode but it doesn't...

    USB Mic and USB DAC fighting each other.

    What operating system are you using?   Is it possible that your OS is detecting the samson go mic as a device that can output audio (like headphones)?

    Ipod classic - rockbox - its happening.

    Is there a newer Consensus on a good rockbox version (for ipod classic 7g)? I downloaded the latest version from the rockbox website the other day and now:  - I don't have the "Load to RAM" option  - Playing in a docking station doesn't work   Now it seems as if they removed/broke these...

    $399 Apple iPod Touch 6G with 128GB storage and A8 chip

    I wish they had bigger models like a 512GB or 1TB edition...  You'd think the sizes would have evolved by now.   Do you guys use this with compressed music? Or is it for the streaming apps? Either way, I'm surprised that head-fi'rs are interested in this.

    Looking for an IEM for gaming

    I game with CIEMs sometimes (perform great in CSGO).   They isolate everything around you but of course never your own voice. It takes a while of getting used to though.
