Yes, absolutely, I did read that. That would not necessarily be a big issue for me for a relatively quiet (voice level of noise) office setting for example, and great comfort would be a huge plus. However, I haven't seen anything about what seems to be the potential (and crucial) consequence of...

Current lineup : Sennheiser HD 560S Sennheiser HD 599 Focal Celestee Used to have an ATX M50x and a small over ear AKG, both of which but especially the first that I remember enjoying a lot, but that was so many years ago I couldn't compare them to recent ones. Having a bit of a comfort/clamp...

That would probably work indeed. manudrz's solution might do the trick too : But both a) add another price tag to the deal - especially the PO100 (70€ for the pro version on audiophonics for example, that's not negligible imo) b) use the only optical entry of the Wiim, which I would personally...

Yes, I gathered that, I was just regretting that, unlike many dacs and dac-amps, it did not have that particular input since most computers do not have optical outputs.

Oh, alright. Thanks for the info. That indeed makes the Dx3pro+ (more than) useless before the WiiM then. And imo strange that the latter doesn't have a USB input that would work in this case but oh well, as said earlier, convertors exist.

Yeah but I'm good too if I can keep the headphones output of the Topping. Also I thought if I used RCA out from dac to RCA in in the Wiim it would not convert again ? Will gladly hear your first impressions if you get one before me :)

Hey guys, Considering the Wiim amp pro as it would include features my current setup (PC -> Dx3 Pro+ -> Sabaj A10A -> Focal 906) do not have : ability to play music from a home Nas and a programmable sleep mode on the amp, sub filtering. I have however a bunch of questions/quick check on its...

I really want to say I hold absolutely no contempt for what you are trying to explain. I do believe that it makes total sense and is essentialy right. I am still going to access it from outside, because of a large mixture of reasons (that's my usecase ; I don't want to have bought it for nothing...

I'll look into that then, ty. As well as the VPN setup, even if I fear I'd painfully struggle to make it work. Too bad, since it's the main (and not sole but almost) reason why I got one in the first place. It doesn't hold private documents or sensitive data, and most of what's on it is also...

I haven't ever been able to configure samba properly anyways, and I've tried writing and rewriting .conf files over several machines and linux distributions over the years to no success. I had already given the relevant access rights to these programs in DSM. I mean, it's the same case to...

Hey, just read through the thread, and have something to add/ask. Most of the concerns here are about playing files stored on the NAS locally, in your own intranet inside your own house through a streamer and/or usb dac. Tbh I don't even manage to really do that yet, but that's not my point. My...

Mixer bypassing works well for me if the right output is selected. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Has anyone managed to play music stored on a NAS with Strawberry ? I thought life would be simple, just put all music on...

I ordered it and sent it back soon after. Sound itself was absolutely fine but there were a couple of issues in my use case : - No pure dac mode with fixed output volume -> having to be careful when switching from dac to headphone amp to not blow your ears - loud click at every track beginning...

I've spent quite some time trying to understand what that advice meant in practice. Found some post going into details, so technical that about a third of it entered my mind and not much stayed. So I tried to look at it another way : I can't say that I found someone complaining online that their...

FX-Audio DR07, looks like a relatively cheap Dac & headphone amp combo, but still on the higher side of the Fx-audio line at 145€ : DAC chips 2x AKM AK4493 Bluetooth receiver Qualcomm QCC5125 USB receiver XMOS XU316 SNR 120dB Headphone output power 2x 1100mW @ 32Ω RCA output...

Tad off topic, but I wish this one, and this brand, were a bit more discussed here. Seems like a great box, features-wise. For example, there is a low-pass for sub, and a high-pass rca out, which seems an ideal combination, but also a full signal rca out, as well as XLR out. Sadly it is not...

On the same website, the Cambridge Audio AX-R85 at 425 bucks is very tempting.. If only for the simplicity factor of integrated w/ sub out vs a setup like dac (+ preamp) + hypex power amp. 2 x 85 W at (8 ohms) on products often pretty fine looks appetizing. If it works as well as expected, and...

I wouldn't know about the quality difference between Ncore and 3E Audio besides what I read here (which is : a lot of good about Ncore, not much about 3E), but it seems to me that there's a potential determining differences between the two : the Ncore AP-300 have both XLR and RCA in, which is an...

Im gonna agree with you, because I went through this thread, as well as this one as well as other websites where this issue was raised. And if I understood why DC could be dangerous for speakers, my total lack of engineering and electrical background still leaves me at a kind of loss in term of...

Update : Topping support sent me the V.012 firmware update. Was a bit of a struggle to flash, but it solved the problem.
