As a future iPhone owner: has anyone allready tried the UHA-6 coupled directly with Lightning? I'm afraid Lightning will try to authenticate the Leckerton, but who knows right?

It probably doesn't do authentication. From what I've read the problem at the moment is that the Lightning connector identifies itself by purpose, and so the connector used to dock the iPhone as a device on your computer won't be the same connector used to connect a DAC as a device to the iPhone. So hypothetically it's probable that something will materialize but I'm not aware of any Lightning cables for iPhone->device connections yet.

Thanks mate. I'm getting a clearer picture about these digital connectors now.

8610 gives a slight hint of warmth and Op Amp 627AP also has an emphasis on its bass and mid-range.

I wanna buy best portable dac/amp combo unit , Which unit is the best today ?  Is it a good choice for iem ? I'll use with sm3 v2 

 

[lee730]

That is subjective and is entirely up to you. The UHA6 MKII has a very good amp section and a decent DAC included inside the amp. I already gave advice on the Op-Amps. At home I use a DACport LX with my UHA6 MKII.

i have the gr07 and the j3, would the uha-6s mkii audibly improve the sound? Anyone here own the leckerton gr07 and the j3?

 

[zachchen1996]

finally gave in and ordered one, so excited! hope it pairs well with the gr07

 

[lee730]

It's gonna be an absolute horrible pairing.... Joke . You should enjoy it. Did you get the stock Op-Amp?
 

 

[zachchen1996]

I have the UHA-4 with the 209 and it sounds fantastic with the GR07s. I can only imagine how much better the new amp will sound.

 

[zachchen1996]

oh, thats good to hear

Has anyone compared the Leckerton to ALO The National?  Would love to hear impressions
 

 

[lee730]

I think DanyBai has the ALO MKIII so I'd love to hear him chime in on how vast the differenes between these amps are. At least from what I've heard the UHA6 MKII isn't far from it at all, considering the ALO is more than double its price tag.
