    Recommendation of USB c DAC for use with Sony MDR-1R

    @JohnBooty Well that certainly isn't constructive advice, especially given the fact that I already ordered a S3 Pro. But it still prompted me to look around a bit and I found there measurements at reference audio analyzer: https://reference-audio-analyzer.pro/en/report/hp/sony-1r.php#gsc.tab=0...

    Recommendation of USB c DAC for use with Sony MDR-1R

    Well the problem is that the DAC has a built-in micro-USB cable, which rules out switching cables. Thus the best I could do would be Phone -> USB-C to micro-USB -> Aqua -> Headphones.

Up until now I have used a Nexum Aqua from a Kickstarter campaign, but since it is micro-USB with 2 adapters in between it gets...
