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

Linsoul has finally (after 7 days) shipped my PDV2

Props to @Tyson for compiling the FAQ . But I do have a question:
Has anyone tried using a 2.5mm balanced to female, 4-pin XLR, for their full sized planars ?
I found this on Amazon, U.S.

Bruh, I think you just tagged another Head Fier. Yes I am using 2.5mm(m) to 4-pin XLR(f) adapter without any issues, besides the bulk, obviously.

Can someone share the E1DA EQ settings for the Tin Hifi P1?

How do you open those? I just want to see the settings, I don't have this DAC.

you can open them in a simple texteditor.
i added some more from the discord p1 to t4 and stuff

Yeah but the HPToy presets are going to give you bi-quad coefficients for the pEQ settings... which unless you're an engineer aren't going to mean much.

If you want EQ settings, almost all of us with the PDV2 are using presets originally found on reddit here: https://www.reddit.com/r/headphones/comments/92b08s/eq_settings_for_700_headphones/?limit=500

Yes of course but he mentioned that he has got not pdv2 yet. so its actually pretty.. not so usefull. And best thing is you have that dac :wink:
Some are based on those AutoEQ settings too.

I made a Sundara Preset with those and they work amazingly good!

nope..i lurk around there 12-16 hours a day... lets stick to 9038d first.. its sad that all the delays where because of the sad behavior of cirrus and other chip companies.. you can buy their stuff but they dondt gibe you the documentation, ignore you or an simple answer takes 3 weeks.. he could have been ready in weeks if that would not slow him down sadly ;(((
E1DA said for example" Realtek, Savitech, and even Cmedia very hard to go to disclose any simple things"

well thats really weird that you can buy the stuff but they wont tell you how to use it.. doesnt make sense to me..

Interested in 9038X if it has hw control. Also the Hifitoy for my modest speaker setup, can it be turned on/off remotely or do I have to go over and touch the bevel every time? Kinda important

We will see what will come with the 9038d ..
Hifitoy could be super interesting because of the same HPtoy EQ App used in PDV2.. Well he is a one man army and i hope he 9038d will be built soon because many people are hungry for it with unbalanced gear..

Since i started my Hifi journey into much better sound just some months ago, stumbled directly over E1DAs DACs and directly gotten my only 2,5balanced stuff or Headphones with removeable cables..
Music has become so much more enjoyable and amazing sounding since i got both of his dacs..
I am still amazed all the time what sound ill get on my sofa and on the go now :wink:)

Yep, I'm also hoping he goes with OPA1622 chips in it. Found transparency better with OPA1622 vs current chip on another
9038Q2M DAC.

Well he goes with the stuff the manufacture dondt disclose any info.. so sad ;(.. if he was a big company they would even send him the manual with some hookers :wink: .
But sad being ignored because they give a crap about small customers is sad.
