now that there is a bit of attention on this thread can i just ask any V222 owners ........
have any of you compared to the Jot2?

this was mentioned way back in this thread but there were barely any opinions, only really about price.

I upgraded from a Jot 2 to the v222. I was worried that the v222 would have less of the slam the jot is known for. It has more

Also better resolution, width and depth, more forward mid-range, and smoother treble. An upgrade on all fronts in my mind.

On the pic of the V234, shouldn't the bottom RCA's be unbalanced out?

Yes they should. I guess that is a typo. This are not regular production units.

I upgrade from RME-ADI 2 to V-222, V-222 has a warmer sound, is it better? for me it was, but I wouldn't spend money on it if I didn't have them to spare, the difference in sound is just a matter of nuance, like all high-end equipment.

I LOVE my V220, but I really like the look of the V3X series. I don't get the dip switches though? Do they not adjust gain anymore or is the gain tied to the VU meters?

VU meters and the amp's gain settings are two different thing. So previously dip switches were for the gain, on the v322/324 is now in the front left corner.
Dip switches is for VU meters only (input signal and needle should be in normal range), it should not have affect on the volume.

Maybe if you get a higher level DAC with the V222 then it may change your perspective

the v226 is still being run in, every now and then I listen to some songs, I notice a certain harshness in the upper midrange, do you notice it too? I hope this harshness will ease over time

I love love the Vue meters And I am saving right now for one of the new models. Soon as I seen it I knew I had to add it to my collection. Even though I just bought a 590 V2, I will be buying this. No doubt. It totally fits my style of amps and dacs. I have no choice but to add this to my collection. I am building a new audio room for reviews and it's going to take some time. I have a huge collection of amps and high-end computers and monitors and tons of headphones and putting it all together in my little spare time is going to take a while but I figure give me a year and I will have a pretty impressive sound room with Violectric being front and center of the entire collection. I just have to be careful. I don't go over budget... Lol..... It was over budget a long time ago.

Only if it is in the recording or when using a harsh sounding source or headphone.

Had the same issue regarding Spotify. I switched the setting to 192kHz, 24 bit and the problem was solved. It was nothing wrong with the V226 (it was Spotify which did not "accept" a higher resolution).

 

[giuseppe75]

Ho avuto lo stesso problema con Spotify. Ho cambiato l'impostazione su 192kHz, 24 bit e il problema è stato risolto. Non c'era niente di sbagliato con il V226 (era Spotify a non "accettare" una risoluzione più alta).

Idon’t think this same problem, my iphone don’t see dac

 

[sprellemannen]

I think it is. Spotify "did not see" the DAC until i did what i described.

 

[giuseppe75]

Io penso che sia. Spotify "non ha visto" il DAC finché non ho fatto quello che ho descritto.

I use qobuz, however i try what you say

You are using the camera adapter or similar? Iphone with lightning port doesn't work directly external DACs without it unless the DAC maker pays royalties to apple.
