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

Can anyone see any issues with using the E1DA 9038D as a source for a discrete headphone amp? Am I missing anything here?

To explain, I'm headed back into the office in the new year and figure I might take my iFi Zen Dac in and make it a fixture. I'll leave the iFi Zen Can Amp at home but was wondering what source I'd run into it - there are some very sharp prices on the E1DA 9038D and I was wondering if I could just connect it to the PC and run it into the Can via 3.5mm single ended connection.

Sure, I could take the E1DA into the office but I just love those iFi analog controls, so if I can have them at work and at home that would be the best of both worlds.

Sure, you totally could use it that way.

Hello to all.

Is the E1DA 9038D compatible with my old Windows 7? I don't need to install Windows 10 because the old OS works perfectly with its hundreds of programs and drivers installed...xDDD.
Won't work without driver. Maybe someone here knows if there is a Win7/8 driver available ?

iOS users, a heads up:
This adapter works with the e1da sg3 with iphone 7, 8, x and 11. tested and right now enjoying it.

i thought it was that i modified the volume in the android app, but no. it works flawlessly, i was about to order the new dd hifi lightning to usb c, i dont know if it will work too, tbh i rather save my cash

enjoy

Does this allow full power draw from the iPhone? I'm looking for a lightning to USB-C for iOS14 that doesn't require an external battery.

Asking because some cable do work, but can only draw 2V from the usual 5V, seemingly influencing the sound. I don't give a crap about battery, my iPhone 11 is a monster in that regard.

yes, only from the iphone. no y cable needed. though i dont know how much voltage its delivering (i imagine the mentioned 2V) i mainly use iems, though i bet it can feed my full size cans although they are not so demanding
