Head-Fier
It is coming from inside the unit.Is it clicking noise from the unit? or sound inside headphone?
Regardless the cases, mine has no clicking noise at all.

@musickid Not exactly what you are asking since I am using Fiio FH5 IEMs but here are my findings: HTT2 is dead silent on IEMs (at least on low gain, never had to check high gain). The 3.5mm port isn't often mentioned since its design is flawed IMHO due to being recessed so far that you may have a problem with removing plugged in cable and depending on cable connector shape it may not even fit or fit only in a single position.Is anyone using high end iem's with tt2? Looking for some general advice or impressions here. Meze's Rai Penta has caught my interest due to its unique comfort and fit. The tt2 also has a dedicated 3.5mm port which hardly ever gets mentioned.
Something indirectly related. If the tt2 outputs around 2.5W into a 32 ohm load and you use a sensitive headphone of 32 ohms impedance but requires far less power but sounds just right with tt2 even at louder volumes how exactly does this work?
@No KNOTsense, do you use the original Chord SMPS to power your TT2?It is coming from inside the unit.
Thanks! I have bought cables from these guys b4 so will contact them!I use Forza Audioworks, bought from fellow forum member qboogie.
First with my HE1000SE, and just today with my new Susvara. No explosions thus far and increased drive power as expected, so presume they are wired correctly.

I've been using both UM Mest mk1 and mk2 with TT2. After trying various DAPs I ended up with Hugo2 and thought it's the final word of their sound, but the TT2 took them to an even higher level. There was an easily audible improvement in terms of bass control, imaging and separation, and a sense of depth. No hiss at all. Just have to be cautious when switching between gains not to blow your IEMs upIs anyone using high end iem's with tt2? Looking for some general advice or impressions here.

True, too true... I don't think this quality can be ever achieved in a portable player / DAC. Moreover, switching between various high-end DAPs and portable DACs was like focusing to find subtle differences, while I could tell it's a TT2 playing with closed eyes after a few seconds of listening (I even asked another person to help me with such a test lol)I sometimes use my iems with TT2, agreed on the easily audible improvements mentioned here. Brings new life to my iems, but then also kind of sad that portable solutions are sub-par now....
The 2.5W you state at 32Ohms is the TT2’s power output potential at max volume. How does this work with 32 Ohm and high sensitivity IEMs you ask? Don’t crank the volume to max!!!Is anyone using high end iem's with tt2? Looking for some general advice or impressions here.

If you check my sig, I use them all with TT2. The best pairing is 64Audio Fourte and EE Legend X. I use them 50/50 with headphones and leave on high gain.I'm trying to look forwards to imagine myself listening to a hi end iem thru mTT2 and I find myself fluctuating between yes it would be great to no I wouldn't be at ease with something in my ear. The problem is a 1000 pound investment would be irreversible with an iem due to dealers excluding them from returns due to hygiene issues.
HTT2 really needs upsampling and M Scaler should be included by default IMHO. However if you like Qutest sound, TT2 may not be the best path, especially with Niimbus or other transparent amp. In fact HTT2 can be run as AIO and it is still great dac.
