I need some advice. As someone who doesn't use FLACs or files that differ in sample rates (I only use Spotify Premium), would it even be worth it to go with the Bifrost multibit or should I just get the regular 4490 version? I'm planning on getting a Jotunheim to go along with it, and pairing...

That's refreshing to hear! It's just, of the few impressions/comparisons I've read, people commented on a "full-bodied" low end. That was giving me the impression that the Mimby is warm, but I guess it could also mean the lows are just right where they should be?

What's the general consensus regarding the Mimby's sound signature? I've been looking at possible end game setups to pair with the ZMF Atticus, and I've been thinking about getting the Mimby to pair with the Jotunheim. The Atticus is a very warm headphone, so I want a DAC that isn't warm as...

If I were to buy a Modi 2 Multibit to pair with the Jotunheim, would I still be able to use the balanced output with my headphones? What is the point of the Jotunheim's DAC module having 2 DAC chips instead of the Multibit's 1? I'm guessing I just have to plug the Multibit into the Jotunheim's...

Did your Jot have the DAC unit inside?

Does anyone know how the Atticus pairs with the Jotunheim and it's AKM 4490 DAC? I'm looking for a DAC/amp combo that pairs well with the Atticus, but I don't want to spend more than 500 dollars on the DAC/amp combo. If anyone has recommendations, please let me know!

If it's underpowered, I can just feed my DFR into a separate amp. I'm just wondering if the DAC portion will pair well with the Atticus.

The black is definitely warmer than the red. Very curious about that pairing, because I've read reviews saying the Atticus is already a warm headphone.

Has anyone tried pairing the Atticus with the Dragonfly Red? Is the bright sound of the DFR a good pairing?

How do these compare to the Pinnacle P1? Is it worth $50 more?

Looking forward to read about how it pairs with the Dragonfly Red

Haven't checked this thread in a while... Do we know anything about the update, besides the fall release schedule?

The DFR can apparently drive HD600's too. Is the 701 really that much harder to drive? I don't think so...

It's okay! I just wanted to correct you because I was confused while reading your post.

I don't think anyone was comparing these with the 598's...

How heavy are the housing on these? Can anyone give me an estimate?

I have both the red and black. The black is definitely the warmer of the two. To me, the red makes the bass tighter and more refined.

Thank you for the response. It is quite interesting that you can't get it to fit correctly. None of the reviews I've read or watched had that big of an issue with the fit. I know everyone has different ears, but do you by chance have smaller ears than average? And have you tried other tips with...

I used to own the Shure SE215 but had to return it after one day because I couldn't get it to fit into my ears correctly. It felt like it could not go deep enough into my ears for a secure fit. I don't know this is because the tips were not angled enough or if the shape of the unit itself was...

I was using some comply T – 200 medium ear tips on these icons for quite a while now but they recently just cracked and pretty much disintegrated. Even though I did like the sound of those ear tips, I'm not a fan of the comply tips themselves in terms of quality control and durability. So now...

For the past year, every time I want to listen to music on my home theater setup I would just use the line out from my dragonfly connected to my computer and plug it into the AUX port on the front of my receiver. If I buy a 3.5 to RCA cable and use the audio in RCA ports on the back of the...

Marshmallow and N doesn't support OTG? 

I emailed this to AudioQuest. Here's their response:     Dear Sir,   Yes, you’re right.  Dragonfly Black’s analog volume control uses non-linear “steps” which are not consistent 1dB intervals.  Dragonfly Red uses all 1dB steps in its digital volume control.  It’s the fact that Dragonfly...

I am using Windows  and I have what seems to be the same problem. As I said in a previous post, the volume is REALLY loud on the black version, so loud that I have to turn down to about 4% compared to 20% on my red.

Player volume is set at maximum. I am referring to the DAC volume on my computer. I was not using a mobile phone while I was testing both of them out
