I should proof read less. We seriously posted at almost the exact same time but I made revisions.

I also got the links backwards. Only difference is the 2.5mm is clear but both DD HiFi.
Well, they do say that great minds think alike... :smirk::thinking:

If you are comparing the same pair of iems paired up with the same source (from the same SE or BAL output) while playing the same track at the same volume level, and hear a difference in loudness between different cables, the change is due to impedance difference between those cables. Perhaps, that silver cable has thicker wires or doubles the number of wires which going to decrease the impedance and raise the signal level.
Do you have a dx320 I was hoping for some impressions vs n8ii :)

Thanks.
Yep - cranked it out between family, work, the world sinking into some dystopian movie like reality and illness :)


Hope you enjoyed the read/ride… 🎶

How is dx320 as a usb dac/amp for pc? I have a dx160 and I'm thinking if I want an upgrade, a good USB dac/amp in the package is something I want too, to get more bang for the buck.
Dx160 as usb dac/amp often disconnects and doesn't sound as good as when using it as DAP. I wonder if dx320 has the same issue.

In Mango OS there is not a good way like there is in Mango android. I normally put all streaming downloaded stuff on internal, and local on the SD card. Then you can just have it scan the SD card rather than the internal memory (or both).

Edit: Or you COULD try and put a file called .nomedia in the folder with the stuff you DON'T want scanned. I don't know if this works in Mango OS, but I use it in android all the time.
can't store the library internally, not enough space. Plus i can't even locate where apple music actually stores the downloaded files in on my SD card, android/data folder is empty

Daps arent meant to be used as a stationary dacs. The battery suffers from it. Better get a good dongle for this.

I think because of the usb mode(asynchronous)on daps they will never be good for standalone dacs, or suffer from not having the ability to charge or pass through while in use

Question for the amp13 owners out there. Is it okay that the tube board has turned itself crooked?

Amp has about 100 hours on it and I took it out to swap back to standard one. It was not like that when new. Should I be concerned?


Thanks for the help!

Since it's under warranty I would get it fixed
But ask @Whitigir
He's the Magic man in these things

ah ok noted and thanks. The battery drain and not being able to charge in dac mode is a big no no for me =D. I will stick to a dongle then

There is no reason to worry about it

There are options to enable charging during DAC mode , and the Dx300/320 is amazing in Line out mode with Amp12. I don’t think any dongle would be outperforming it
