Cheers man good find. I just received mine, can also confirm it works (Galaxy Note 3 -> Fiio E07K)

A bit of clutter, but I do love my set up for what it is. New speakers will be probably be on my list when I have a better listening space... the acoustics are fairly poor where they stand now.   The Emotiva takes in from either the CD changer or my laptop, and out to the either the DRA-395 or...

I will do some tests when I get home, just to verify, but I will tell you this now - I can eliminate the static & distortion (for less than a second at a time, mind you) simply by playing around with the position of my interconnect cables. The left-channel rca jack spins left or right when I...

I will do that, thanks

The left channel rca jack doesn't stay tight. It spins freely when my cables move around even a little bit... eventually it completely detached itself from the solder on the inside of the amp, so I re-soldered and tightened the rca jack as much as I could. This worked great for a while, until...

What is the current LDI+ revision? I have a 2.0 from early 2010 that is starting to s--t the bed. Has anything of substance changed? Considering replacing my LDI+ with a new LDI+...

My portable set up is Galaxy Note III -> Fiio E07K -> HF5   My home set up is Windows 7 laptop -> Emotiva XDA-2 -> Denon amp / LDI+   My laptop is currently out of commission, awaiting a new heat-sink fan, so I tried to use my phone and its OTG cable to go into the XDA-2 but it does not work...

"Not really," to answer my own question. I've decided to buy an XDA-2 for home speaker / headphone use and a Fiio E07K for use with my phone.

I do not follow hi-fi audio so closely as I used to, but in three weeks both my iPod and DCM-280 have expired... I'm thinking it would be really nice to use the bitstream from my laptop's HDMI port -> DAC -> analog receiver / LDI+. Is this an option without spending many hundred dollars?

Cool thanks, that's pretty awesome. Enjoy them!

These speakers defy what admittedly little I know about cabinent desgin... how do they work!?   Quote:

Caffeine stimulates you and nothing else. You are not able to focus or reason better on caffeine for any reason other than no longer being tired.

OmniLemur I honestly do not think you should throw money at a DAC to fix an electrical problem in your TV/PC (whichever it may be.) Do you plug your headphones into the computer through on-board audio or a sound card? Edit: Quote: Originally Posted by OmniLemur Not so straight...
