I once saw a member with a Furutech XLR with a 4.4mm out....no cable. Totally cool.

Hey,

I am trying to find a splitter cable to split either 3.5 or 4.4mm female to 2 * 3.5mm male to connect to that output of the amp, but I'm not sure where to find this cable. Everywhere I look there are cables to split microphone and headphone from such headsets but nothing to split in to mono channels. Am I searching for it wrong?

What is the best way to connect Apple iPad Pro to the TA?

I use TIDAL HIFI on my iPad Pro.

It has a USB-C output.

Easier to do than you think.

You have one huh!

Can make one. The all in one 3.5 TRRS female to 4.4 mm male is more difficult to make.

The iPad is best used portable and wireless. You can try USB-C to USB-A cable, but you will soon tire of having the cable, and the driver in the Ipod may not recognise the TA either.

The TA has no wireless protocols built in only wires like Coax and optical. There's only Bluetooth left, if you can find an adapter with a digital out, something like this?

Other than that, the next step up is a computer with Roon, and using that USB out (with all its noise) into the TA.

Or if you're as crazy as I am, the next step is you get a Roon server, fed by ethernet to an Ultrarendu streaming to the TA. You can use the iPad to control the Roon app. Roon then sounds far better than from a laptop, as I discovered.

I use my TA with my 2018 iPad Pro just fine. Usb-C to USB-A cable (non-OTG / on-the-go connector). I use the setup with Qobuz/Tidal/Apple Music. It sounds fantastic, and works seamlessly.

Hi All
It takes a while to read through 133 pages of posts.

I currently have HD800S, Z7m2 and ier-M9 head/earphone and WM1A as the portable player and looking for the desktop amp/dac.

I have saw few posts here about comparing Zh1es with GS-X mini. I knew that GX-X mini didn't have DAC. If Zh1es got 100 mark, what is the mark for gs-x mini?

My senior audiophiles, I am taking interest on the TA. But before that, any quick name suggestions of other desktop DACs to compare with the TA ?

SMSL D1, iFi iDSD Pro, Hugo 2/Qutest, RME-ADI2.

You’d be hard pressed to find better competition.

This thing vs the Sennheiser HDV 820? Just for the pure sound quality as a DAC + headphone amp for music. Source would be Macbook Pro via USB. I've tried the Sennheiser and it sounds good and I like the simplicity. The Sony seems like a worthy comparison.

Both are very nice however I’d lay my vote on the Sony
