    WTB (UK): Creative SoundBlasterX G6 / X6 / Schiit Fulla 3

    Hey! Looking for a high quality usb interface with a good headphone amp and a good microphone input. Items in the title seem like the obvious choices, what have you got? I'm North London (Highbury), UK. Thanks! Tom.

    Schiit Hel or other Headset Compatible DAC/Amps

    Boom pro offers that same freedom (as long as the headphones have, or you are willing to mod them to have, a 3.5mm input); only a single cable to worry about is the biggest benefit, and it's a much neater solution. You are confined by your source though having a microphone input though which is...

    Review and Measurements of Sound BlasterX G6

    Can anyone find any serious reviews of the creative G3? Seems a relatively new product, and given the G6 has quite a good following it would be interesting to see how well (or otherwise) it stacks up!

    Schiit Hel or other Headset Compatible DAC/Amps

    Other option is the Creative SoundblasterX G6...despite Creative getting a bad rep, this particular item gets incredible reviews even by Amir.... https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/review-and-measurements-of-sound-blasterx-g6.7016/

    MEIZU Hifi Pro USB-C Phone Dongle DAC Review

    Thanks! It's saying 20-40 days for shipping, I feel thoroughly spoilt by Amazon, used to getting stuff in hours or days not months! Don't suppose you've tried a SoundblasterX G1 or G6 have you? Be interesting to see how comparable they are! Thanks,

    Schiit Hel or other Headset Compatible DAC/Amps

    This most likely won't work as you'll end up with ground loop issues, there's only a single ground on a 4-pole lead and if they're not on the same device you're gonna have a problem (source: I have tried exactly this, and I'm now trying to find the right USB device that has good headphone amp...

    MEIZU Hifi Pro USB-C Phone Dongle DAC Review

    Thanks for checking. how about when connected to a PC, does it show as an audio input device and work on that? That would rule out the apple incompatibility concern.

    MEIZU Hifi Pro USB-C Phone Dongle DAC Review

    Thanks Jimbo. Don't suppose you have a random headset lying around from perhaps a phone purchase that you could try this with? The Sonata HD supports microphone in and the Sonata HD Pro doesn't, wonder if that's where you're getting it from? EDIT...

    MEIZU Hifi Pro USB-C Phone Dongle DAC Review

    Everything i can find says it does support combined headphone/microphone headsets (ie 4-pole 3.5mm)? The product page has clunky wording around it not having its own microphone but supporting "supports most of wire -controlled earbud for calling", and the photo just above shows a 4-pole 3.5mm...

    MEIZU Hifi Pro USB-C Phone Dongle DAC Review

    Hi all, I'm considering getting this for a specific reason: my PC's onboard microphone input is terrible. I have a V-Moda Boom Pro, which is a microphone that also feeds the headphones (it has a 4 pole jack at one end, and then a stereo jack at the other). This is into a set of DT770 Pro 80ohms...
