  I've had the d-zero for quite some time now, but given that it is the first and only dac/amp that I've owned, I haven't experimented it with other equipment yet.
 
I'm planning on getting a Senn HD600, but I'm quite unsure if the amp section of the D-zero is capable enough. So my question is, given that the modes available are "OFF", "AMP" and "DAC+AMP", how will I make it that the D-Zero would only use the DAC part then pass on the amplification part to another amp, say an Obj2? 
 
Would using the "DAC+AMP" mode then linking to another amp via the aux in/out lead to double amping?

 
The D-Zero MK2 has no problem to drive your HD600 properly. There is absolute no need to use the O2 amp and the D-Zero MK2 only as DAC. The D-Zero MK2 has a real line-out not only a headphone out, there is no double amping.
 
This tiny thing drives my HD 800 without problems. Here my streaming setup a Samsung S4 + D-Zero MK2 + HD 800:

Guys, I'm in a bit of a conundrum here- I'm choosing between this and a JDS lab C5D. I can get a used c5d for $50 more than a brand new d0. You think I should get the c5d instead? Well be using it with a note 4/ s6 and hd 650/ re0. Appreciate your help!

some say c5d is better, but it's again your personal taste

For IEMs don't use the iBasso D-Zero MK2 because the hiss is too high for low impendance IEMs. For regular cans like your HD650 no problem.

With the S6 this dac does not work. The S6 blocked usb audio for most of the DACS.

Ah and I also have hd650 and the amp section of the ibasso ibasso is not powerful enough to drive them properly. At least is a good dac with line out to use with other amp.

 

[h1f1add1cted]

A HD650 needs more power as a H800? With the iBasso D-Zero MK2 it provides plenty of power to my HD800s, I'm really wondering why it should not work for the HD650s too.

 

[king conan]

The ibasso has not enough power to drive my HD650 properly. They sound dull compared to a more powerful amp. But if you are happy with the combination good for you!

Already bought the Ibasso d-zero mk2 at our local retailer and although it didnt work at the shop, i was able to make it work on my phone using Onkyo HF player free version. Paired with my fidue a a83, it made my smile reach my ears while listening to my music.

  Yes I have a lot RFI/EMI noise, see here my solution: http://www.head-fi.org/t/741541/new-ibasso-d-zero-mk2/240#post_11721090

 
Also tried this, altho i didnt put it inside the phone, i put the foil in between my phone and its casing and it seems to work. Ive noticed that my signal bar changed from zero to two or three bars and no RFI/EMI noise. Thanks for the tip.

Sorry if this was posted earlier, but I can't make it work with my Note 4. Is it compatible?

It works with my note 4, am only using Onkyo HF player free app atm. I believe it also works with UAPP and UARP apps.

Are you on Lollipop or Kit Kat Rom?

5.0.1, lollipop and unrooted. Got my ibasso from egghead. It didn't work at first when we tested my unit at the shop, when i got home, fiddled with the app and it worked, although the free app has a few limitiations vs the paid app.

Didi You try any of streaming apps? I'm using Tidal and it does not work for me. Also Onkyo doesn't work.
