Source : iPhone 4s mod
Dac / Amp : HI Fi M8 For i device With RSA balance version
Headphone : LCD 3
Cable : Lod to USB diy
Stefan AudioArt Endorphin cable With 6,3 mm Woody Connector
Modification : original Stock 6,3 mm Woody Connector , i have mod to balance 4 Pin male
My diy friend made 3 adaptor :
Female Balance 4 Pin to mini 3,5 mm connector
Female Balance 4 Pin to 6,3 mm connector
Remale Balance 4 Pin to RSA balance connector

Please try it , you will hear better sound quality than direct 6,3 mm connector
IMO

wow, Rudi.. what cable you used for those adapters?


I don't know exactly my diy friend made 3 adapters for me
You have your diy friend , he can change the stock 6,3 mm to balance 4 Pin and please make adapter to 6,3 mm or 3,5 mm or RSA
Please share your impression here
SQ is Better , I don't know why , but the SQ different is noticeable
IMO

M8 is excellent for 2 in 1 dac / amp for I Device

 
  nice pic!   M8 is really impressive  for a portable gear

 
It truly is.  It's the proverbial Swiss Army Knife of the portable audiophile world.
 
It has a few flaws, the low frequencies are a little dry and underwhelming.  It has a touch of grain and it could use some more decay as it can sound a tad sterile, but I am being HYPER-analytical here (which I feel obligated to do since it is a $700 portable device).  The charger is a little cumbersome and the battery like is OK, but I don't really travel much and I charge it daily so it's no big deal to me.
 
But it does have many great features.  The mids are very nice and slightly forward, instrument separation is very-very good.  The highs are light and airy and really make up for the lack of a significant low-end presence.  Then you have all of the sound customization and the ability to connect ANY set of headphones on the market to it.
 
I'm very-very pleased with this device.  It's a solid 9/10 for me.  If CEntrance would have tailored the sound to a slightly warmer signature with more decay I could excuse any other flaws and rank it a 10/10.

I like that I can plug in any of my phones , without adapter, and get lost in the music
Not having to sit to use these is a plus:)

Gave up learning terms to describe what I hear, sorry

Plugged 3 phones and driving them all fine without loss of any sound while adding phone
wonder how battery life will be affected, might be shorter but was just curious



From left t5p, IE800 and Th900
M8 is worth the wait:)
