Does it mean that the 3 Ohm output impedance isn’t amp impedance dependent? If it is so, why? And if we look the other way, what would be headphone impedance with EarBuddy connected?

I'm still not sure whether I understand correctly what EarBuddy does to the impedance of the amp and how to calculate it. Let's assume that I want to use 23 Ohm amplifier with 44 Ohm headphones. What will be the amplifier impedance after connecting EarBuddy to it? Where the numbers will be...

Could anyone confirm that KZ’s foam tips will fit S1D?

If I were to choose I’d probably go for Dragonfly just because of comfort of not having to care about the battery. Cobalt seems to have a good press recently.

Considering channel imbalance on low volumes NX4 may be not the perfect choice.

Does anyone in this thread can comment on the difference between S1 and S1D? Is hybrid worth it over dynamic, considering I really care about black color?

Hi, I'm about to order KZ S1D, could anyone comment on how are they compared to S1 hybrid? I can't stand that they decided not to give an option of black hybrid version, actually that's what makes me want to go dynamic. Or maybe I should look elsewhere for chi-fi TWS around 40$?

Sure, NX4 does not require CCK with any additional power.

hi, i’m using this combo and nx4 is the best portable and budget friendly solution you can come up with BUT i can’t really say much about how does it compare sonically to full size desktop amps

I’ve tried it for a couple of days and have to say that it wasn’t incredible, just ok. But when it comes to loudness and power in general it definitely lacks the headroom.

Would NX4 work directly from Tidal on Pixel 3a without UAPP in between? EDIT And what about apps that are not available in UAPP like YouTube???

Finally I had a chance to test almost all headphones I have mentioned. If I had to choose based purely on sound quality and signature definitely HD58X would be perfect for me. Comparing DT150 with Topping NX4 DSD and HD58X with Dragonfly Red, Sennheisers offered a little softer, more pleasant...

Okay, so I finally had a chance to compare both amps. It's a clear win for Topping, ifi didn't have such authority as NX4 for driving the bass but most importantly highs were too harsh on ifi. In general, even though I didn't test DT150 with full size desktop amp to compare I could recommend...

I know this is old thread but finally DT150 or SRH840?

Okay, I think that I found answer to this question myself. As far as I understand it the deafult USB-C power output is 5V and even though it is capable of outputting even 20V it should only do so if the external device will ask for it using Power Delivery protocol. Therefore I believe that it is...

Hi, what are your experiences and knowledge about charging NX4 DSD using USB-C cable? I've just plugged it in to my MacBook and it seems to be working, as charge indicator is red. But I'm a little afraid it could damage it somehow, because in the manual there is statement that only USB-A cable...

Sorry, I guess burning in is the term. Keep your WA11 safe :stuck_out_tongue:

This seems to be the perfect closed back setup. How is it after burning up?

Classics itself don't fit within my budget and the problem with Noir is the pads controversy. As I said before, I'm sure Dragonfly Red will fit well HD58X. But I'm not sure about DT150 source. And comparison between HD58X and DT150.

Has anyone tried NX4 DSD with Beyerdynamic DT150 and could share his opinion?

Yeah, I'm also sure that they're well worth the price but I'm wondering whether their sound quality can justify them not being closed in my case? Are they worth the sacrifice in context of DT150? Another option I was thinking about were Meze 99 Noir, but they would require me to have another...

Hi, I'm looking for new portable closed back setup for under 300$. I’ll be using it in 80% for listening and 20% for music production. I said closed back and that would be the best, but sound quality is priority for me, therefore I also consider some open back headphones, which could bring...

Maybe Topping NX4 DSD?

Does anyone know how do DT150 sound with ifi audio iDSD nano Black Label? Would it be a good match and give it enough power or maybe I could do better with other portable dac/amp in similar price range? I've read some opinions about ifi suggesting that it is pretty analog sounding, so I guess it...
