Dear Zek,
Thank you for answer,
But I planning to buy Galaxy S21.
So, which portable DAC is really good for Galaxy S21?
Why? There are many good options for 99$It connects to PC - yes. If that's what you're asking
I think you need to rethink your approach to this one.Why? There are many good options for 99$
You realize this "whistle" has been scrutinized/reviewed in the first original post? It looks absolutely fine, "no QC and no warranty", how so? What nonsense.Guys, you are discussing chinese whistle which has no QC and no warranty, just pay money and hope that someone puts right components and tune sound for you.

For 90$ you can buy refurbished Creative G6, for example.
I realized that you do not have many devices, but you have your opinion on each thread, but your opinion is based on the conclusion of the reviewer, however, I did not see a negative review here for a long time - each product in the recommendation and each thread has many pages with problems, strange - why the reviewer did not face these issue.You realize this "whistle" has been scrutinized/reviewed in the first original post?

I have Hidizs AP80, no support at all, I sent them letter one year ago, all firmware for player are old and they did not fix any issues, but release new product and pay money to reviewers.I see how it's easy to doubt in chinese QC, I am not sure how to conclude it has no QC, no warranty. How do you know that? I mean.. the warranty is easily to check factually: https://www.hidizs.net/pages/warranty

If I buy this product from a retailer in Europe, I get 2 year warranty by default and can e-mail about any technical issues as well and get easy hassle-free return if it simply doesn't work for me..I realized that you do not have many devices, but you have your opinion on each thread, but your opinion is based on the conclusion of the reviewer, however, I did not see a negative review here for a long time - each product in the recommendation and each thread has many pages with problems, strange - why the reviewer did not face these issue.
Even in this thread, many people faced BSOD on Windows and no reply from the manufacture, no warranty, and instructions, just share from google drive old version of drivers for solving issues.
Nice product, 5 stars, should be recommended, I am sure.

I already have Creative G6 for 2 years and it is good card, works with no issues. Do you have any other advice?@d13ma dont buy in future from those who aren't OEM's like Hidizs. There whose couple of splits regarding software stuck in Chinese portable audio device's; FiiO & Shanling made their own which is ironically worser than originally used HiBy (right now). That's the story with your AP80 along with bad manufacturer. The HiBy OSM products will Certainly get longer suport. Don't buy refabrished Creative for God sake or any only wiped up B one of anything. G6 is a great for what you get from it including Dolby decoding and nice amp among many other things. DAC is the same CS43131 chip. But you pay for it with bugy Creative drivers and that story goes for very, very long time. I have older TempoTec Sonata iDSD and they Windows drivers are like candy compared to Creative or Realtek MB one's. Small, efficient and it works. You get BSOD on Win for almost everything but never had any regarding audio card in my life. Last time Linus rized finger couple of days back regarding EEC RAM which alone (RAM corruption) account's for almost third of all BSODs. QC is a problem across the audio manufacturing industry and not related to Chinese ones alone. The best you can is pick a OEM with good history regarding both support and QC and hope for the best but unfortunately that applies to everything today not just audio products. In the end Sonata HD Pro went much better than it's competitor the Meizu HiFi DAC which is discontinued now for some time and never sow any support regarding software. Still it's not rather good but I think Cirrus Logic is more to blame for that than TempoTec considering what they did with their older ES products and those also had bad support from manufacturer.
In the end that's how things go in the real world. Best regards.
Are you using ASIO with their drivers? If so, try increasing the buffer size. Usually that fixes it.Been using the tempotec sonata HD pro for the last 7 months, permanently plugged into my desktop by USB. Happy to report other than the occasional stutter that occurs after hours of continuous playback, it's been performing well.
Speaking of which, any fix for the occasional stutter during music playback for the tempotec sonata HD pro?
No I haven't. Just installed it now. Is the device supposed to say "Not Available" and the state "Unload"?Are you using ASIO with their drivers? If so, try increasing the buffer size. Usually that fixes it.
