[FiiO M17] Dual ES9038PRO, dual THXAAA-788+, dual power supplies, 9200mAh battery, 2 volume control modes
Nothing else from @FiiO This has been the worst customer support experience I can remember. I’ll be returning the Q7 I ordered to troubleshoot and will not consider FiiO for future purchases.- burkerg

[FiiO M17] Dual ES9038PRO, dual THXAAA-788+, dual power supplies, 9200mAh battery, 2 volume control modes
I didn't see any lint or anything, but I blasted the ports with compressed air and tried again. No luck. Appreciate the suggestion!- burkerg

[FiiO M17] Dual ES9038PRO, dual THXAAA-788+, dual power supplies, 9200mAh battery, 2 volume control modes
I’m using the USB-C port with the blue outline, though I’ve tried both. And I‘ve been following the USB DAC instructions from the video the whole time. I’ve just completed a reset with no change. I’ve tried on multiple PC’s, and neither the FiiO driver nor the update utility sees the M17. It’s...- burkerg

[FiiO M17] Dual ES9038PRO, dual THXAAA-788+, dual power supplies, 9200mAh battery, 2 volume control modes
I purchased one of the first M17 units that was available at Amazon upon release. I’ve never gotten DAC mode to work with any device. I’ve tried with a PC, two Macs, three iPhones, and four iPads. Nothing will establish a connection in USB DAC mode. Firmware is updated (1.0.6). I finally...- burkerg

Naim Audio Uniti Atom Headphone Edition
I’m also curious about how the Uniti Atom HE pairs with the Stealth, which I assume, would also translate to the new Expanse from Dan Clark.- burkerg

[FiiO M17] Dual ES9038PRO, dual THXAAA-788+, dual power supplies, 9200mAh battery, 2 volume control modes
Is there some way to use an iPhone or iPad with the M17 via USB DAC mode? I'm trying to use Roon and/or Apple Music on the iPhone or iPad and send the audio through the M17. For the life of me, I cannot get this to work. I've tried using a USB-C to USB-C cable, and I've tried the Apple USB-C to...- burkerg

Astell&Kern new flagship A&Ultima SP2000
Has anyone tried the Dan Clark Audio Stealth with the SP2000? Is the SP2000 able to properly drive the Stealth, or is that asking too much of a DAP? If it works, this seems like an awesome portable (not walking around, but travel) setup.- burkerg

Dan Clark Audio Stealth Review, Interview, Measurements
I’ve searched the thread and found little discussion of how these sound with the AK SP2000. Has anyone tried? Is the SP2000 powerful enough to do the Stealth justice? Thanks! Rob- burkerg

Astell&Kern new flagship A&Ultima SP2000
I’ve just received my SP2000. This is my first A&K (and Android) device, and I cannot for the life of me sort out how to exit the Roon screen to get back to the main interface. Can someone enlighten this humble idiot? How do I get back to my on-device library when I’m on the Roon screen…without...- burkerg

The Sony 40th Anniversary Walkman Thread
Oh sweet. I was planning to pick up a 512GB Samsung Evo card (Red one, though I’m not sure of the differences). Do you have any issues with lag when browsing your library, or is the card sufficiently fast to read a 512GB library without slowdown? Thank you both for your help!- burkerg

Beats Solo3 Wireless - Impressions Thread
Well, I exchanged for another pair, and the light on the left cup also doesn't light up. I don't mean the light in the power button. On the other cup, you'll see there's a small hole where the silver (or whatever color you got) plastic meets the white interior plastic. On the Solo 2, this...- burkerg

Beats Solo3 Wireless - Impressions Thread
Strange question... I have the Solo2 Wireless, and the light on the left ear cup illuminates all the time. The light on the left ear cup of my Solo3 hasn't illuminated once that I've noticed. Makes me worry there's some kind of short that might lead to problems down the road. For those who have...- burkerg

Beats Solo3 Wireless - Impressions Thread
I bought them to try out the new W1 chip. I'm literally on my second song with them, so not much to say about the sound. But man... The pairing was so easy on my iPhone, and the connection was almost immediately propagated to all my other Apple devices. Super cool and useful for folks deeply...- burkerg

Causal headphone to tame Loudness War casualties and streaming music?
Hi, all - So... I'm sure we all know a ton of new music (indie, pop, EDM, etc.) is mastered/mixed terribly. I currently have the HD800/HDVD800 comb, and while it makes well-mastered recordings sound hypnotic, it lays bare all the problems in casualties of the Loudness War. Not only does...- burkerg

Burson Conductor vs Sennheiser HDVD800: Amp/DAC for HD800
Thanks very much for the additional thoughts! I really want an all in one system, so I'm avoiding the DVA600. I read a review of the DVD800 from right around its release that mentioned the trouble with 24/192 files (I think the reviewer also mentioned 24/176), and I wondered if Senn had...- burkerg

Burson Conductor vs Sennheiser HDVD800: Amp/DAC for HD800
Thanks for the input! I am admittedly not nearly as far into the HDVD800 thread as the Conductor thread, but most of what I've seen has been pretty glowing, while a significant portion of the Conductor thread is devoted to discussing how to avoid using the USB input. I'm continuing to read...- burkerg

Burson Conductor vs Sennheiser HDVD800: Amp/DAC for HD800
Hi, guys... I've been a longtime reader of the forums, and I could now use a little advice. I'm about to replace my Burson 160D, and I've narrowed down the replacement to either the Conductor or the Sennheiser HDVD800. I will be using the amp/DAC connected to a Mac via USB to drive my HD800's...- burkerg

Senn HD800 Cable Replacement: Any Benefit from a New Single End Cable?
Thanks for all the advice, guys! I guess I'll begin doing my research on what amps mate well with the HD800's. One more question, if you'll oblige... Is there any reason I should not use my Denon 4311 as a pre-amp/DAC for whatever HPA I wind up with? I'd like to continue using it as a traffic...- burkerg

Senn HD800 Cable Replacement: Any Benefit from a New Single End Cable?
Hi, guys... I bought the HD800's this week, and I love them. However, I keep reading that for them to truly shine, you have to replace the cable. But most of these discussion revolve around going balanced. I don't have the funds to upgrade my amp at the moment, so I'll continue to drive them...- burkerg
