E1DA DACs Discussion Thread (PDV2, 9038S, 9038D, 9038X, HiFiToy, HPToy)

User @backtofuture has found another way to use Y-Splitter with iPhone, by using "Lightning to USB Camera Adapter".
An additional USB A male-to-USB C female adapter dongle is needed. Then, attach Y-spliiter as how the Android users are doing.
In his case, he used a USB A male-to-USB B male dongle to attach Y-spliiter to PDV2.
(Oh boy, if you check out the adapters for the headphone side, that is a wild party of adapters happening there! I am getting giddy looking at it....)

Well i tested it with nonstop running yesterday.
Started a timer on my phone, went shopping to ikea, and kept it running till it went out when eating ramen.

4hours 45 minutes :wink:
and it get just a bit warm but nothing more.
Volume was 55%.. thats loud enough for ikea saturday warzone

i used tin hifi P1 for that test and it was great to enter the ikea warzone with claude debussy running :wink:

Ikea on a Saturday isn't happening in my part of the world (too many weekend warriors), although it is comforting to know that my P1's can now leave home and provide the same sonic gold as they do at home

Well i actually had all the stuff with "pick and collect" ordered online.. that took just 5 minutes. but i wanted to check some furniture live.. puhhh everything thats cheap and made of wood is garbage and i went with the p1 and lovely classical music with swat team speed through, had printed out all the stuff i wanted to see and was still completly dead afterwards :wink:.. best way to fck up your saturday..

But really 4:45!!! thats pretty much all i need for a saturday shopping trip.
That small slope from the cable is super handy.. its like a ring that fits my small finger.. like from a revolver the ring around the trigger :wink:
also helps me find the right side for the buttons in my pocket! thats what i hated about the player until now..

so thats what i would call the "real hiby R3 Pro" now.. sound is awesome :wink:

Nice result for such small device. I belive that r3 has the biggest battery for small players 1600mah. Fiio m6(maybe it has Tidal offline support) has the same but r3 beats with the hiby os. Tempotec v1(the price is better then the price of items above) which is only transport device has 1200mah and also hiby os paired with e1da, could be killer thing if it could lasts 5hrs with is it...

Yes thats nearly 5 hours nonstop playing time.. i didnt turn the display on and off all the time and loud enough volume.
also whats something to look at are those usbc t like splitters that you can plug in the device do plug a powerbank also in it..so both works on the smallest scale possibly.. but for me thats enough now.
Also the p1 get enough juice to run good.

oh nice! I was thinking something this could work but don't have the USB A male-to-USB B male to test it, but going to pick one up now. the single camera adapter is also much better than any of the camera+power adapters for iPhone as far as size and secure connection go.

Have to say that this cable works with 9038s, but NO Volume control for the 9038s 2nd Gen and the IPHONE. 9038s called SPDIF in Control Center of the Iphone. only Kaisertone(APP) help me, cause it have a special GAIN control. also i hear hiss with my sensitive 8ohm Empire Ears Zeus XIV. Can not switch to the 4th IEM mode (no light). Landing everytime in the Normal Mode (constantly light)

Is it possible to use any of e1da with bt receiver? I want to stream LDAC from mobile phone(mostly from tidal) to some bt receiver and then to e1da device?

Maybe phone -> LDAC -> FIO BTR3 -> Type-C cable -> E1DA 9038S -> 2.5 headphones?

AliX customers feedback: Hidiz AP80 can be used as BT LDAC receiver with USB out.

If I understood your statement correctly, you meant the connector at the Y splitter-to-PDV2 junction. Any generic printer cable can work, it will just be longer. You are probably already using one if you are having PDV2.

so I've been using the powerdac v2 for a few days. Anyone else having an issue where after it heats up the left channel drops out?
I noticed that the powerdac v2 works just fine, then about 5 minutes in the left channel drops out. If I gently push on the top of the powerdac, the channel comes back.
Some kind of thermal expansion problem?
