The EU volume limit only works with the built in Music app. If you're using s DragonFly you wouldn't want to use this because it it is limited to 16 / 48 where else a proper app can output 24 / 96 which is what the DragonFly supports. You'll also be using high definition FLAC and ALAC files...

Yes I believe it's the same because that's a standard iOS volume bar. The SE535 will sound great between 3 - 5 bars. Anything over would be too loud and could damage them. The Red's output is very powerful. By the way, this is a great DAC if you're looking for portability and convenience. If...

Hello,   Yes definitely. iPhones are really thin and compact thus the components are minimal in design. In any case, an external audiophile DAC will outperform any smartphone's built in DAC.   Even with the DragonFly, I still need to use the EQ to get reasonable bass. Without EQ the music...

*bump* does anyone happen to know this?   Thank you.

Hello all,   I am trying to figure out what the 3 digit numbers on my earphones are. Both sides have different numbers' They are on top and perpendicular to the sound output nozzle. Are these serial numbers?   Thanks.

Hello all,   Does anyone feel that the iPhone 6s' built in amp is rather weak? I have the Samsung version of the 6s (if it makes a difference). Anyway, I was previously using the Shure E4c and had to set the volume all the way up to max (with EU sound limit turned on in Options) and yet it...

The iPhone's built in amp tends to be weaker than those on Android devices though, which is why Apple wants to do away with the 3.5mm jack.

  Cool! Thanks again.

Thank you very much. Pardon my ignorance, who is Chris? The owner of that site?   Thanks again.

Thanks I'll check it out.

*bump* someone please chip in. Thanks.

P.S.: I've just read here that silver plated copper cables are best avoided as they reduce the bass. Argh I'm even more confused now. Please help! http://www.atlascables.com/conductor-types.html

Hello,   I have done some searching around this forum and reading several threads, but I am unable to find the answers to a few basic questions. I would appreciate any advice you experts could give me on these.   1) How can I tell whether the cable is soft or stiff from the description? Do...

Hi, Yes I have spent almost an entire day searching for 18v ones to no avail. To further complicate matters, I am not sure whether the Phono Box has a built in voltage regulator so I had to make sure the wall adaptor is regulated.   You've raised a good point about the AC line quality. I'll...

  Tomb,   Thank you for your patience and attention. I really appreciate it.   Here's the Phono Box:   http://www.project-audio.com/main.php?prod=phonobox&cat=boxes&lang=en   It has a Phono connection as input and Line-Out as output. That's it. It sits between the turntable and the...

Ahh OK thanks for clarifying that.   Sure, my setup isn't too fancy. Here goes.   1) Turntable = Pro-Ject Essential II (there is no electrical connection between the motor power unit and the tone arm in this model because it doesn't have a built in Pre-Amp). 2) Phono Pre-Amp = Pro-Ject...

  Ahh OK I wasn't aware that there is was another pre-pre-amp. In my case, the turntable is connected directly to a Phono Pre-Amp that supports both moving magnet and moving coil. The output of this is a RCA line-out that can be connected to any amplifier's Aux-in or line-in. The Phono Pre-Amp...

Hello,   The Phono amp IS the Pre-Amp. Here's the setup:   Turntable -> Pre-Amp -> Amp + Speaker   The turntable's tone arm is unpowered (because there no built in Pre-Amp)   The Pre-Amp is powered by AC -> DC Adaptor that isn't earthed. I've manually earthed the unit.   Amp + Speaker...

Yes it is indeed. I am trying to solve it :) There are ground loop suppressors but I couldn't find any that are made for 18v

Ahh ok! I've wasted £5 then

OK great. Thank you.   I can live with that. In the worse case, I'll buy a cheap 20+ volts power supply adaptor to power it.   The seller offers a Return policy so there's no risk trying it out anyway.   I'll go ahead and will let you know how I get on.   Cheers.

the one I listed has a potentiometer to adjust the output voltage too.   by the way, since these are only 'buck'; would they work with the same input and output voltage? i.e. 18v in and 18v out using the same power adaptor that came with the Pre-Amp?   Thanks again.

  Hi,   Thanks. I found some DC to DC (no AC input support) but these are available locally (United Kingdom) and are quite cheap. Would these work just as well or is there an advantage to using the one you have provided?   e,g,  ...

Thank you. I did see some of these.   Silly question, what do they do?   Thanks.
