Anyone have tried the Centrance DACPort HD? It´s often offered by drop.com at 130USD. Seems to be a power monster. I'm interested to know how it compares with YinLuMei S2...

Hello everyone, I got the Meizu Hifi Pro DAC delivered today and I'm hearing hissing sound whenever a call or SMS arrives. I'm using it along with my OnePlus 7T and TRN BA5. Is this hissing common or have I received a faulty one because I didn't see anyone pointing this in their reviews.

Did you try it on a laptop to see it wasn't the phone itself?

Hola folks,
It's been so long since I've been in the iem game and I need your help. I recently purchased a Ray Samuels p51 Mustang for my daughter to use with some old school Triplefi 10. Lol.
I'm looking for a usb c dac dongle to run from a note 9 to the p51. Budget is $50 or less for best sq. Thanks in advance for the recommendations.

Do USB-C to 3.5mm DAC dongles + flagship Android phones like OnePlus8 Pro compare to LG V60/G8/G8X's Quad HiFi DAC? I'm wondering if it's an adequate replacement.
No.
3.5mm adapter/dongles mostly run on single chip.
If something adequate replacement would be something like DAC AMP. Plus depending what kind headphones you running on.

Probably go little up budgets for wireless like btr3 or shanling up2
For cable meizu, hidizs 1, jcally
Try using Hiby or UAPP. Enable Hardware Volume in the settings, listen to a song you like, set the volume to a comfortable level, exit the program, and now you should have to increase the regular Android volume to 100% to get normal volume. That should get rid of the hiss.

Thanks for the suggestions. I don't mind spending a little more if it's worth it. Can these dac dongles be used as a dac only? I know they're an amp as well and I don't want to get into double amping into the external amp I already have.

Yeah, I tried few combinations and below are my finding:
- Phone (mobile network) + DAC + TRN BA5 = Hissing sound
- Phone (VoWiFi) + DAC + TRN BA5 = No hissing
- Phone (mobile network/VoWiFi) + DAC + SoundMagic E10C = No hissing
- Laptop/Desktop + DAC + TRN BA5 = No hissing
Update: I have used BA5 along with TRN T1 cable since the day it arrived, switched back to stock cable and the noise is gone.

Hi, thanks for the suggestion, but this didn't help in my case. Please read my previous post for more details.

It's because the Meizu suffers from poor shielding. When anything involving the cellular network is triggered, you will hear EMI noise. This is the reason I always suggest the Tempotec Sonata HD Pro over the Meizu.
