I haven't seen a 3.5mm balanced connector before. It's always been either 2.5mm, 6.35mm or XLR.

Sorry I mean 2.5 to 2.5mm trrs, but yes there is also 3.5mm trrs

My trouble with big band is partly solved through noubsound NS-02E tube amp fed by Alientek D8.
However NS-02E tube amp generates noticeable noise around 600hz monotonic sound.
Anybody has similar problem with the tube amp?

Hi BenF, did you try Fiio Q1 ii with O2 amp?

Just a quick update: my 3rd of 4 units arrived yesterday. Shipped January 4, that was 12 calendar days in transit. Not too bad. This one was also hermetically sealed in bubble wrap and tape. A good thing too, since it sat in the snow most of the day.

No.

Well, I bought a 2.5mm to 3.5mm from Vention, hoping it to be decent, but totally not worth it. I suppose the cheap cables are off for me. Can anyone suggest a decent to good cable with 2.5mm to 3.5mm? Something that doesn't "robotize" the sound of the 82 Pro (yes, they were that terrible).

I bought one from vention also, the 2.5mm part can't go into the hole fully. Must cut the tip of the housing a bit to make it useable.

This one works just fine for me, I didn't hear any "robotization" effect with it, couldn't tell the diff between it and the stock cable, and it fits fine into the Pro 82 without any issue:

I noticed that I had to not insert the 2.5mm pole fully to even get sound on both sides, and if I got it all in, it would completely stop. How's the sound quality on yours after cutting the tip? Can you upload a pic of it?

Probably will buy this one then, or similar. Want something smaller than the current one though.

The only reason why I'm not buying this one, is because it's too similar to the original one, and my current cover doesn't allow me to properly insert the 3.5mm pole in the socket

So perhaps you need one with a low-profile L-plug? Like this...?

The 2.5mm housing is too wide, it doesn't fit to the indentation around the hole. When you plug it fully it actually doesn't plugged fully.

After I cut the tip like in the picture it works fine, can't hear the difference with the stock cable.

I use a handsaw to cut the tip. 5 minutes of work to not wasting money on that cable

 

[Miguelbazil]

Well, I don't actually have a handsaw, but I'll search around for a way to do it in here, I had totally forgotten about your post. Good to know it's possible, and that it's all explained
