Hey bud, have you tried the DAC+ with the classic overly sensitive IEMs, such as the Andromeda or the Katana?

@mvvRAZ - Actually, I did, but not Andromeda or Katana. There is a bit of hiss, with REALLY sensitive IEMs, if you really listen for it, but for most practical reasons, I treat it as mostly silent. Since I don't have the moest sensitive IEMs in particular, like Andromeda, I rely on slightly less sensitive IEMs to talk about this.

This device is supposed to support DSD256 but I could not get it to work with foobar2000.

@gimmeheadroom - Have you tried it with other software? There may be a glitch with F2K or the way addons are installed in your particualr setup, and this may be causing some issues. Usually, trying multiple software should reveal whether there is something you can do to fix it.

You are right, but since I have several other DACs playing DSD256 over f2k I am not sure what to think. Same setup with Oppo 205 and Chord Mojo works fine.

Did you try it?

@gimmeheadroom - Yes, I tried multiple setups, including running Brooklyn DAC+ from an Optical source and from USB. I also tried Mojo, and loved it. You can find out more here: https://www.audiophile-heaven.com/2019/04/the-majestic-one-chord-mojo-dacamp.html

I'm sorry. I meant, did you try playing DSD256 over the Brooklyn?

Does the DAC require a USB cable that passes power?

No, it uses a standard IEC plug and runs off an A/C outlet. See the pic George posted here: https://redirect.viglink.com/?forma...one Reviews and Discussion - Head-Fi.org&txt=
