Ibasso 1 bit Discrete portable DAC with Resistors Array D16

There seems to be a lot of discussion about Coax versus USB.

If have solved the "USB" this way, and I am more than happy with the sound

Cool, can you describe the sound difference, with and without this device?

That is just an Isolator, which usually solves grounding issues. You shouldn't have these problems if you run it o battery without a power supply connected.
The processing of the USB sound signal is the same. Sorry.

Sorry, live to short for this kind of discussions

Thank you for the link. I also don't want to go into a discussion about that, but they just wrote what I said: " the noise on the USB ground can travel through the DAC and manifest itself as noise and ground loop."
If you have problems with grounding, it is a great unit (I use one myself when I have grounding issues).
But AFAIK the discussion was not about noise from the USB connection, but the processing of the USB signal through the USB chips.
BTW: I use the D16 with a USB connection to my MacBook Pro and I am very happy with the sound.

The info provided was about noise - just noise.

Amirm's USB clearly shows that his feed is not clean.

Back to my D16 and some great music

Anyone knows approximately when D17 will come out?

 

[Whitigir]

I would think that will take a while

Hello, Has anyone compared Ibasso D16 with Topping D90iii Discrete?

Best regards

What is difference between these two cables?

 

[Nightshifter]

The thicker one has an impedance of 75Ohm.

 

[Whitigir]

What is difference between these two cables?

One is audiophile constructed (braided). Thicker one is standard COAX 75 ohm impedances

What is difference between these two cables?

I find the braided cable to sound better in terms of spacial cues.

 

[Whitigir]

I find the braided cable to sound better in terms of spacial cues.

Flat cables sounds even better

 

[artkillen]

Flat cables sounds even better

I will not fall for your scheme to tempt me into buying a flat cable.

(I'll be looking for one tonight, let's be honest)

I measured both, could not see any difference in the signal...
