Had to look that one up. That's one sweet looking headphone. Sadly, I can't really wear headphones that long. Glass wear that rotates between reading glasses and computer glasses often, not to mention hotspot behind my ear when wearing headphones. I even bought a pair of glasses that have super thin arms... bummer. But I still enjoy them from time to time for limited listening sessions.

My mobile setup a couple days ago:

Sorry to hear that, when I wear glasses, I often place the arms above the pads. It looks kind of silly, but as long as I stay at home. Alternatively, just take the glasses of, close your eyes and enjoy....

Many are designed to take this kind of beating for some time

But let me ask you why did you stress your cans this much? Was it curiosity ?

Because I don’t like the Beoplay and nobody was willing to buy it for more than 80 bucks. I just wanted to blow them off.

I just created a thread: https://www.head-fi.org/threads/lightning-to-headphone-jack-cable-for-b-o-beoplay-h6-gen-2.949172/

If anyone has a suggestion and can answer there, be my guest.

Apple has just released a Lightning to headphone jack cable: https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MR2C2AM/A/lightning-to-35mm-audio-cable-12m

If anyone is ordering one, let us know if it fits.

I'm looking around now, I finally returned to the iPhone flock and as the 12's don't come with an adaptor at all I will likely try to find a "decent" Lightning (DAC & AMP) to 3.5mm cable as I couldn't be bothered with:

https://www.hidizs.net/collections/...zs-s9-balanced-single-ended-mini-hifi-dac-amp - a bit too clunky for a pocket

or

The Fender looks ok https://www.hidizs.net/collections/...zs-s9-balanced-single-ended-mini-hifi-dac-amp but a bit pricey

Cables: three other options I've quickly found

V-Moda looks good https://www.v-moda.com/us/en/products/speakeasy-lightning-cable - a bit expensive though (would cost me about $200 AUD for a 5 year old set of $400 AUD headphones)

Moshi https://www.moshi.com/en/product/in...able-4-ft-1-2-m/titanium-gray?ref=category:22 the 3.5mm end looks a bit large to fit the B & O's 3.5mm port???

Belkin https://www.belkin.com/au/p/P-AV10172/ no detail on the DAC & AMP.. but cheap

+ Ebay has a bunch available for about $10 - $20 AUD - not sure how they would sound

Why not use a Bluetooth adapter?

Interesting!

Which Bluetooth adapter do you suggest?

I really like FIIO BTR3K: https://www.head-fi.org/showcase/fi...bluetooth-amp.24317/reviews#item-review-24719
Keep in mind, iPhone doesn't support advanced codes like APTX and LDAC, only supports SBC and AAC - so it will probably sound more compressed than with Android.

That doesn’t sound better than the lightning adapter from Apple. But the btr5 does

 

[BenF]

I have both BTR3K and BTR5, and prefer BTR3K.
H6 is veiled enough by itself, it doesn't need the extra veil of BTR5

 

[maserluv]

Interesting! Thanks for the Tips!

Does it sound soft via bluetooth connection as compare to wired?

[BenF]

BTR3K can be used as both a wired DAC and a Bluetooth adapter - it sounds the same regardless of connection type
That's with LDAC, which is not supported on iPhones.

Too expensive - the Bluetooth adapter would cost me about $100 (a cable would be under $50) and I was trying to avoid “extra” parts

FIIO BTR3K is only 70$ (66$ if you'll use the coupon in the first post of the Pro 82 thread https://www.head-fi.org/threads/tak...iew-impressions-and-discussion-thread.849965/)
From the options you posted:
Hidizs S9 is 109$
V-Moda cable is 101$
Cheaper Moshi and Belkin cables are for connecting to stereo systems, not headphones.

And none of them allow you true mobility on the go - you are tied to your phone by a wire, which will eventually get torn out by some door handle.
