Hi all! I have been using original (first) Hip-Dac for more than one year and i'm pleased with it's sound (comfortable and lively). I prefer to use dac/amp at my office with PC.

Hi all! I'm looking for small, light and comfortable on-the-go "type-c dongle" with average power consumption. I prefer detailed, well-balanced, musical sound with good sense of space. My primary earphones are Oriveti OH500 (with very low impedance). I like them so much and after my Opus #1S...- tonymcross

iFi audio GO blu - Super small. Super light. Super Sound.
So, if I've got Hip-Dac with my IEM and used to using it with my IEMS there is no reason to change to Go Blu? And for full-size headphones Hip-Dac is more suitable?- tonymcross

iFi Hip-DAC Impressions Thread
If Hip-Dac had no problems with low-volume channel disbalance, it would be better than any other uber-features. MQA, huge power (totally unnecessary for small device), 4.4 balance... and channel disbalance. I can't use my Oriveti OH-500 with the usb-dac because of this problem. It's a strange...- tonymcross

I prefer natural and neutral type of sound with good sense of space. I don't like intimate soundstage, bloating mid-bass and sparky highs. My favourite music genre is progressive rock/metal (not extreme). I've got AKG K612 Pro. It's cheap and great sounding open cans with nearly my ideal...- tonymcross

Hello! Could anyone tell me, how OH500 plays prog-rock/-metal (Dream Theatre, Leprous, Haken,..)? Do they suit to this genre? My primary source - Opus #1S. I'm not a bass head.
