have you used high gain and NORMAL EQ setting ? It has more bass than W1 and it seems strange that you have this issue.
I realized though that with W2 you can challenge more with higher resolution Flac files - and maybe the settings of your source need updating ? from 16 bit to 24 bit sampling ?

I tried all, didn't help and I heard 2 other cases in this thread which had the same issue with their full size cans and W2.
Same issue with Paw S1 by the way which I anyway returned meanwhile.
But don't worry.
I got this dongle for my IEM only and here I have nothing I could wish for as it is great besides MQA support.

I also cannot play DSD on W2 with MAC/linux. I hope it's a firmware bug. I email customer service and nobody replied to me yet.

Hmm, I tested DSD before on my IPhone and it worked even up to DSD 256 if I was not mistaken using Neutron app

Just as an experiment I have ordered a used fully balanced Oriolus BA300S mobile tube amp from a Head Fi friend mainly to pair with my DX220 Max and my Full Size Cans but I will post how it will pair with W2.
This could be a really nice mobile combo and potentially solve eventual synergy issues with Full Size Cans and W2

Inspired by @twister6, I decided to try setting up my W2 like this...

iPhone 6s > W2 > XD-05 Plus

I don’t have any difficult to drive headphones, but listening on my Sendy Aiva’s it sounds quite good. I’ve upgraded the op amps to Burson so there is plenty of power here. Makes kind of a cool portable desktop little stack... if you’re into that kind of thing .

In term of sound signature and quality,Any comparison with the dap Shqnling M6/M6 pro or the Fiio M11 pro ???

I am hesitating between buy the W1/W2 dongle or to buy one of the mentioned dap above.

It wil be helpful

In that case Neutron is converting the DSD content to 32bit/352.8 PCM and the W2 plays that just fine. If you stream DOP to the W2 it does display DSD 2.4882/5644.8K correctly but no sound is coming out...

My W2 have made their way across the Atlantic and now in the UK - next stop Dublin! Probably would have landed with me tomorrow but St Patricks Day so DHL may not be working... I must say, yet again fantastic service from Musicteck, I only ordered on Sunday.

Could anyone describe if it is possible to leave the W2 signature warm, hot, with that body and weight in the bass and medium? Can the bass be booming, or are they too restrained even in the equalization? I'm interested, but I have brilliant IEMs like T800 and Tin p1, I don't know if the synergy would be good

Does anybody else have issues with the included cables? Seems like they fit pretty loose and I keep getting disconnect from my device.

Yes, especially the iPhone cable. The USB-C cable is a little more secure.

 

[Calfredo826]

Yeah that’s the one I’m having issues with. W2 sounds phenomenal by the way.

Thank you

Anybody having issues with the device being recognized? My surface laptop won’t recognize the W2

White cable doesn't look right with a black device. Besides, the cable does look a little cheap and on the flimsy side of thing.
