i am using igalvanic+micro iusb3.0 with notebook. i wonder if a single NimitraS can outperform them?

 

[iFi audio]

Thinking of buying the iusb micro. Is it ok to use it with a generic usb cable to the chord Mojo or i need a double usb to micro usb to mojo?

It'll work with a regular USB cable just fine and if youd like to push things even further, then you can try something better.

Wondering if i would hear a big difference between a nano iusb 3.0 and a micro iusb 3.0 if my setup goes like this

PC > chord mojo > schiit vali 2( to be upgraded to cayin iha6)

Should i buy a nano iusb 3 + gemini or a just a micro iusb3 then upgrade the usb to gemini on the future

Thanks

someone said the new ipurifier3 + old micro iUSB is better than micro iUSB 3.0 alone

Our micro iUSB3.0 and iGalvanic3.0 as a team provide the best and the most complex USB service we currently have. But the choice is all yours

Surface Laptop >>> male USB C to USB 3.0 adaper >>> iDefender w/iPower + iSilencer >>> male USB A/B cable >>> iGalvanic 3.0 >>> male USB A/B USB cable >>> iPurifier3 >>> Micro iDSD Black Label

that’s my set up right now, where would the Micro USB 3.0 fit and would I need any other cables? What are some good cables?

The reason as to why i’m using these in a chain in the USB C part is because my USB 3.0 slots on the left are affected by the magnets bc the Surface Book 2 and this cause a ton of static. Not sure if caused by Purifier or Gal. I keep it down, i don’t understand the switches can anyone explain it to me?

I know it’s not a USB port that’s broken because I tried it with other laptops, and also iPurifier3.0 and iGal works perfectly by itself but not when together.

Anyone can help me out? Where does the Micro USB 3.0 Go??

Best

Micro iUSB3.0 would go after iGalvanic3.0, before micro iDSD Black Label and instead of iPurifier3.0.

I see the iUSB have 2 USB outputs. Can I use the same iUSB3.0 to power my raspberry 3 and feed the raspberry usb output to the iUSB3.0 for processing? My DAC is self powered.

Yes, you can use the same micro iUSB3.0 to power your Raspberry machine and at the same time use it as a reclocking device before your DAC. Please take a look at the diagram.

I own both nano igalvanic 3.0 & micro iusb 3.0. They complement each other very well. For me the combo > micro iusb 3.0 >nano igalvanic 3.0. The difference is easily noticeable. I am using Hugo 2 & audeze lcd i4.
This has upgraded Hugo 2 sound to next level for me. There is zero EMI/RF/GROUND LOOPS/HUM in my system. These degrade the sound to a great extent imo. The pitch black background is unbelievable.

My chain is as follows :
iMac->Roon->ifi mercury 3.0->nano igalvanic 3.0->ifi mercury 3.0->micro iusb 3.0-> curious usb cable-> Hugo 2(ifi groundhog)--AQ water RCA -> Violectric v281-->balanced EA horus-->lcd i4.

ifi's total usb solution(micro iusb + nano galvanic) is far better than optical I own (wireworld supernova 7).

I wonder how the micro usb 3.0 + igalvanic compares to a dedicated streamer like SoTM 200 ultra.

I have no experience with SoTM.

It probably doesn't compare at all. Different products to begin with.

I mean in terms of the gain in SQ. I am trying to decide which direction to go, usb or source optimization.

ifi has updated their micro iusb3.0 and igalvanic to 2nd gen reclock regen rebalance (but they did not tell how to differentiate the old and new version). you should try
