Can you please try Tidal in Windows? Also USB-C connection to Android phone? Sometimes I hear this trange noise in one headphone, sometimes in another, sometimes in both. It is irritating.

Is mine unit faulty? AFF. Second buy from Xduoo, problems again. QC not good enough...

Btw, nothing is superior to OPM401SE, it is cheaper than Burson and just the best in world. This korean guy is killing it.


It comes with all kinds of adapters allowing connection of everything to everything. I wanted to sell mine before buying Xduoo, but now.. I think I will stick with it.
Unfortunately I dun have Windows where I reside now. Perhaps you can swap OTG cable to troubleshoot? I'm using my LG Android smartphones through DDhifi OTG cable connected to it with no disruption during track change.

I just noticed I could stick 5 ifi digital enhancers into this Dac amp🤣

Yeah, you can chain them to your heart's content :D

Anyway, the ifi ipurifier3 does not comes in USB C type, does it?

It doesn't, but there are adapters :L3000:

It looks fine !
I hope Aliexpress will sold it...
Hope for you too . Really like the color I picked, matches the OLED screen ( yellowish orange) and contrast with the red volume knob.

Had to return my XDuoo Basic due to a faulty volume pot and decided to upgrade to the Balanced.

Anyone have any experience with this amp and the Sundaras?

Also, only recently ordered and received a singled-ended Audiophile Ninja cable, which is awesome by the way, but now I will have to run the Balanced in SE mode. I don't expect there would be too much of a difference with the Sundaras, but still interested in feedback regarding the benefits of the balanced out as opposed to the SE.

Im glad to help you but both my Sundara and Xduoo Balanced are in different locations. According to spec on the xDuoo Bal, it will not be a different between 6.35mm and 4.4mm socket. It will make much different in opamps replacement though.

Well, coming from the Basic, I actually have 2 different op-amps. Do you know if there is any issue mixing them in the Balanced since it requires 2 op-amps?

Are they Basic using single or dual opamps? The bal requires dual opamps.
