Something I can put in my room that will give a good boom. Something I can connect my iphone to.

Is there any appreciable difference in the DACs used for line out on iPods and iPhones over the ages?  Currently I have all of these models:   iPod Nano 2G iPod 5G iPod Classic iPhone 4 iPhone 5s (no built in line out DAC but can use Apple 30p adapter with onboard DAC)   Just curious how...

Hey all, relatively new to this line out thing, if you got some time to spare, please answer my questions? So to get from my iPhone 5s to my amp ( FiiO E12 ) I do this : iPhone5s > lightning to 30pin > FiiO line out cable > amp This to get a signal which has not been processed from the...

Just had a bit of a shock after I burnt a compilation CD for my friend. To check it would work ok I put it in my Linn Ikemi CD player ( 12 years old) and pressed play Good grief the sound was so much better than via my Audiolab MDAC , (Dell XPS desktop i7 , 12 gig ram, win7 64) it just sounded...

Hi all,   Any recommendations for a clock radio that docks an iPhone 5S? My wife's old clock has the 30 pin connector. Been looking at the iHome ones at Amazon.

Hey All,   I've read through probably every thread on Head-Fi about the PHA-2 and the SE846, but, I'm still unsure if the SE846 would benefit from this amp/dac at all on an iPhone 5S..   Anyone have this combo?   Would it be a good enough increase to justify the cost?  Is there a different...

Anyone tried one of these out yet? http://www.native-instruments.com/en/products/traktor/dj-audio-interfaces/traktor-audio-2/?content=2610   I currently use a Native Instruments Audio Kontrol usb sound card/dac with my macbook/krk monitors and krk sub and i doubt i'd get much better for home...

Hey you guys does anyone know of a dock (lightning or 30 pin) that has AC power and a lightning/30 pin passthrough?   The goal of this would be to have a nice docked iPad set up that was always charging AND be able to connect a CCK to it!

Hey guys, I'm thinking of picking up an AudioQuest Dragonfly DAC and was curious if it works with idevices like the iPhone 5? Much thanks in advance.

Which iphone has the best audio quality?  I know iphone 4 often mentioned, and has minimal output impedance. What do you guys think?  I really did not like the newer iphones as it doesn't sound like it has a wide sound stage, but thin.

Will a portable amp/dac eg vmoda make a noticeable difference to listening to spotify on my iPhone 5 with kef portable headphones?

Good morning,   Im wondering if anyone could probably provide me some advice with regards to options I have available for Portable Amp/DAC combos for iDevices.   Current equipment includes - iPhone5 - iPad4 - iPod Touch (either 4th or 5th Gen) used with DreamEarz UAD-8X CIEM and also in the...

Currently listening to 320k quality music on iphone. I've been long waiting for the HiFi-M8 plus a set of Weston4R.   What do you guys think of that setup? Should I get a dedicated source instead? eg Astell&Kernell    Pls comment on the earphones as well. I have a pair of AudioFly...

Hello- I searched for anything close to this topic before starting a new thread; couldn't find anything on Head-Fi or elsewhere, so here goes.   I have a 2011 headless Mac Mini, running Audirvana Plus in the iTunes integrated mode.  I am running the latest iTunes, and the latest Mavericks OS...

Hi Everyone, I have returned my Denon AH-D600 Headphones and I need a decent portable amplifier to drive them and some new headphones. I will be listening mostly to dubstep, However I listen to everything from 70s, 80s, 90s, and Rap\Hip-hop for 2000-2013 so it’s a wide range. I would...

Hi,   I was wondering what is the preferred setting if I have 2 separate volume controls(portable player and cable attached control on UE 400vi)? Should I max out the volume on cable attached volume control and set the level on the player?

Right now I just upgraded my speakers, and I used to use an onkyo receiver, and. I used a 3.5mm to RCA cable to play from my phone. My receiver isn't powerful enough to really get my speakers going, so I want to upgrade to a 1800 watt rms amp, I mainly plan on using my phone to play music, so...

Try to open it and it just crashes immediately. Does the same on iPhone 5 and iPad 4. Anyone else having this same issue.

The successor to the TTVJ Slim is out, the new Apex Glacier   I just got mine and I'll update this post as people start getting theirs and put up reviews and comments.   From talking to Todd, the dac is a big step up from the old one in the Slim. While the amp is basically the same, it...

So I have confirmed what I thought was true. I had access to IOS 7 long before it was released last week. I work in QA and had access to an iPhone 5 device with IOS 7 installed. I was playing around with in the last few weeks and thought it sounded rather different than my own iPhone 5 with IOS...

For those who have one of these iPhones, how's the sound quality through the headphone out? Does it still have a lower volume output (like the 5) than the 4 or 4s?

Has anybody tried to connect an iPhone (running iOS7) to a DAC or USB/SPDIF device (with or without a powered hub) via the Apple Camera Connector Kit? The CCK did not work with the iPhone with iOS6 and there were rumors that it would with iOS7.

Hi All!   New blood here :)   I recently bought a pair of Sennheiser Momentum cans (which are great!) and I'm thinking of picking up a headphone amp to go with them.   I have been considering one of the Ray Samuels amps - either the P51 or the Shadow...   Mainly just running off...

Can't believe this hasn't been posted on head-fi yet...   Beyerdynamic has a new DAC / Amp out which can connect to android / iPhone / computers as an external DAC. It's got a Wolfson WM8740, 1.1ohm Output impedance and something like 11hrs (spec) of battery life.  ...
