It is amazing to have the modular convenience of the dx300 isn’t it ? Swapping amp out as you like . Cant wait to see more amp modules. I don’t have desires for any up coming DAP, except Ibasso ... lol
You only have rca input , you need that amp11 and 3.5mm to rca outMay I ask what kind of cables do I need If I want to use DX300 as my source as well as DAC? I would like to connect it straight to my integrated amp via DX300 coaxial port. I'm using Rogue Audio Cronus II. Below attached with an image of the connectors available at the back of my Cronus Magnum II.
Is it coaxial to RCA cables? how does it look like though.
Is there such a thing as coaxial to rca out since there is a coaxial port on the dx300 or it doesn't work like that. Sorry, I'm not so good with this stuff.You only have rca input , you need that amp11 and 3.5mm to rca out
Coax is digital, you can’t use it that way.Is there such a thing as coaxial to rca out since there is a coaxial port on the dx300 or it doesn't work like that. Sorry, I'm not so good with this stuff.
If 3.5mm to rca out is the only option then I'll start hunting for the cable. If I were to order amp12, does it mean I have to buy 4.4mm to rca out?
absolutely. in my car system, i use the amp12 LO into a Jensen PO-2XR which takes balanced in (XLR) and provides unbalanced out (RCA).
i have it wired up in the car now, though i have not yet installed/hidden the extra hardware required to convert the balanced LO (see photo).
the balanced out LO is really much better sounding and worth the effort.
ok i get it now, looking at the connectors at the back of my amp, seems like I will need a 3.5mm to dual-rca out?Coax is digital, you can’t use it that way.
Amp12, you will need Ibasso dongle, and adapter, and extensions.....or you go with transformer balanced as @cat6man is doing
That is correctok i get it now, looking at the connectors at the back of my amp, seems like I will need a 3.5mm to dual-rca out?
First impressions, long story short: I'm in loveDo SE and BAL need separate burn-in?
I bought DX300 w/AMP11MK2 and currently it's slightly less resolving on 4.4 than my W2 though previous owner told me that he was listening only to SE.
Btw, any important initial setup suggestions?)
Definitely Isabellae.First impressions, long story short: I'm in love
It's interesting how different is the listening experience and pairings with DX311 compared to W2: my beloved modded 3DT doesn't sound that great with this DAP regardless of cabling/tips but ol' good and long forgotten Z5 suddenly shine with NOS and copper cable. These ugly boys are still overly warm but sound truly grand and at scale when fed with a proper current on high gain, especially with 90-00's pop: such a guilty pleasure
I'd be really grateful if you could recommend a great IEM pairing to DX311MK2 under $500 used which is both musical and revealing, having good natural timbre: currently considering Simphonio RX10 which are sold for just $400 at local classifieds. Isas, Volt or Land were my first thoughts though these are very rarely seen locally unfortunately.
Nope, and even if they did it would cost me well above $800 including postal and customs fees.Definitely Isabellae.
Musicteck does not send them to Russia?
Have you tried hifigo? I have bought them there and I have not paid customs or duties and for less than $ 500 at home.Nope, and even if they did it would cost me well above $800 including postal and customs fees.
