Qobuz Lossless Streaming Service Thread
Man, that is frustrating! If you subscribed to Qobuz by making an in-app purchase & unsubscribed thru Apple, but kept getting charged, you should be able to request a refund by contacting Apple using the Apple Support app in the iOS App Store. Once you download the app & log in, tap “Get... -
AudioQuest NightOwl - A closed-back NightHawk
Hello fellow NightBirders! I rarely post, but I wanted to share a strange experience I had recently. (I apologize in advance for the long post.) A little backstory: I’ve had the original wood NightHawks for a few years now & still love them. About a year ago, I was in need of closed-back...- HonkyTonk

AudioQuest NightHawk Impressions and Discussion Thread
I agree with mks100 & nwavesailor: The upper frequencies have an increased presence when using the boost/pleather pads.* Also, the L/R pattern is just print, nothing more. Take a look at (& maybe run your finger around) the interior ring/lining of the ear pads. Your boost pad lining should just...- HonkyTonk

AudioQuest NightHawk Impressions and Discussion Thread
I second this. The boost/protein leather pads I received do not have the cross pattern either (even though the markings are shown on the actual packaging, which made me laugh when I noticed the discrepancy). However, I could tell they were the boost pads because the inside ring that surrounds...- HonkyTonk

AudioQuest NightHawk Impressions and Discussion Thread
Hello everyone! Just wanted to pop in & say that my thick NightHawk cable started cutting out with the slightest movement of the 3.5mm end. I contacted AudioQuest (info@audioquest.com) & they replaced my defective cable with the new four foot black cable that is included with the NightOwl &...- HonkyTonk

LG G5, Possible DAC or Camera modules. Audiophiles enjoy ?
Unfortunately, it sounds like you might be having the issue mentioned by SeeSax back on page 56. Does the Hi-Fi icon on the top right disappear when it disconnects & then reappear shortly after? Are you located in the US?- HonkyTonk

LG G5, Possible DAC or Camera modules. Audiophiles enjoy ?
I'm glad to hear that you haven't had any disconnects, McCol. I'm in the US, so the issue may be related to what Collin mentioned previously. I really like the added functionality provided by Hiby Music as well as the app design - very clean & focused. I'm glad it was mentioned in this thread or...- HonkyTonk

LG G5, Possible DAC or Camera modules. Audiophiles enjoy ?
I completely understand if you return the Hi-Fi Plus because this issue is very frustrating. It still blows my mind how this potentially excellent product is hampered by so many drawbacks. It + the G5 is literally the solution I've been looking for, if only it would work properly. Despite my...- HonkyTonk

I think you guys are onto something with your FCC theory. Fortunately for me, I usually save Tidal HiFi music for offline listening using my home Wi-Fi connection, but I'm sure I will want to hear something I don't have saved sooner or later when I'm out & about. When that time comes, I will use...- HonkyTonk

My friend, you are not alone. The same thing happened to me several times last night - exactly as you described - while I was streaming using cellular data.

Seconded. esuhgb, thank you for the recommendation! It works very well for my stored music. At first, some of my songs sounded garbled, but it appears the issue was caused by playing different file formats in rapid succession.- HonkyTonk

I am fairly certain they are the same internally, but with different exterior styling & cables (Pro = coiled; Limited & Premium = straight).

Duncan, do you have any idea how many gain levels are built in & if there is a suggested impedance range? I think I've triggered two gain levels so far, one with your method of plugging the attachment into the Hi-Fi Plus & then plugging my headphones into it, & the second higher level when my...- HonkyTonk

Hi everybody! I just got my G5 & Hi-Fi Plus up & running. As mentioned by many, the Plus' auto gain function is definitely frustrating since none of my headphones have a high impedance. Luckily (& thanks to SeeSax's cable attachment suggestion), I remembered I had a Belkin Rockstar I had...- HonkyTonk
