    On the Distortion of Cirrus Logic CS431xx-Based Devices: A Comparative Review

    KP Player 3 supports NOS I took the test and can confirm that in NOS mode the clicks on C-Maj at native 44k become inaudible, while they are clearly there cycling through all other 4 filters. Oddly, if i set Pipewire to resample at 192k instead of native rate, the file produces a couple of...

    Performing System Update

    Passkey error just like everyone, Chrome on Linux Mint. Anyway It was saved in my google account password manager, but trying to log in using it throws an error again. Well, at least they didn't take the same work time for answering... :rolleyes:

    On the Distortion of Cirrus Logic CS431xx-Based Devices: A Comparative Review

    Nice finding! I'll redo the C-maj test with Kuang Pai P3 since it's my only one CS dongle with switchable filters ;)

    Fosi K7 Gaming DAC and HP Amp Review

    I have a Sound Blaster X-Fi 5.1 Pro and it works perfectly under Windows 10, still use it in rare occasions for watching 5.1 movies, dvd, and blu-rays, it drives an ancient Creative Inspire 5100 set where i replaced front and center with units from another cheap HT kit, all from around 20 years...

    On the Distortion of Cirrus Logic CS431xx-Based Devices: A Comparative Review

    I agree, even though these are practically inaudible issues in most real music listening scenarios, they draw a veil on this CS chip that otherwise performs and sound so good, and put your mind at unease just for knowing they exist.

    7Hz x Crinacle Zero:2 IEM Review

    I used them for a long time as daily beater for home\work commuting, always listened to them without EQ and yes, absolutely "listenable" if you are not particularly sensible in the pinna gain region. For commuting they are now replaced by a more balanced and even cheaper KZ EDX Lite, but still...

    On the Distortion of Cirrus Logic CS431xx-Based Devices: A Comparative Review

    I can confirm tha audibility in specific conditions, like the C-Maj test mentioned by @jkim, with all my CS dongles: -Sonata BHD (non pro): from measurements it doesn't produce the mentioned "hump" but playing C-Maj at certain volume level I can hear three faint clicks at the beginning of each...

    Fosi K7 Gaming DAC and HP Amp Review

    He was probably referring to the fact that many TPA6120A2 implementations strictly follow TI guideline that say to keep output resistors not less than 10 ohms for stability. Topping showed us that it can be finely engineered to achieve fantastic performance with very low output impedance, so...

    Truthear IEMs

    just tried to quickly eq 7Hz Zero to Pure curve via Hangout squig, end the overall result is, as expected, too dark for my taste, especially when A\B with the Zero bright stock response, that i like so much. Surely suited for relaxed long listening sessions and for anyone extremely sensitive in...
