ADI-2 DAC can make it go but Diana v2 dynamics really improve with more power in my opinion. I can technically get listenable quality with my phone but it sounds much better on an amp that can get it enough power.

Anyone know if the RME ADI-2 DAC FS is a good pairing with the Diana v2? Using both it's DAC and amplifier.
I had the Diana Phi's and the RME ADI-2 can power them but the sound coming them is not that great. They sound thin and not very involving. The RME as a DAC feeding a more powerful amp would be a better option.

I've owned an RME-ADI-2 - great DAC, but not sure if the headphone output would really do them justice. That said, you could try it and then add another amplifier as needed. The other advantage to the RME is the EQ, if that's your thing! :)

I hope they make a newer version with more power and a xlr output. I want a balanced all in one dac/amp with pre-amp function.

Hi everyone, I have a 4.4 mm Diana stock cable, and want to trade it for a stock 3.5mm/6.3mm cable. Please PM me if you are interested. Thanks!

I have a XLR stock cable if you're interested. I wouldn't mind trading for a 4.4mm.

Thanks
Thanks so much for your reply! Sorry that I think I made a mistake when posting it.. I want to use the Diana with single-ended AMPs so I should actually want either the 3.5mm or the 6.3mm cable, but not with the XLR cables.

Alternatively, do you by any chance know whether it would damage the AMP if I use a XLR to 3.5/6.3 adaptor? If it doesn’t I would be very happy to do the trade with you! :)

Any recommended EQ profiles for the Diana v2 with DMS pads?

Alternatively, are there frequency response measurement for the Diana v2 out there?
i've not seen any fr measurements for the v2 in the course of my interweb searches
