    Possibly the worst DAC/amp. (yet)

    Saw this new review by @WolfX-700 and had to laugh a bit. This may have been the worst result I've ever seen. https://www.l7audiolab.com/f/yzaudio-usb-dac-hpamp/ Bad linearity, bad THD/N, worst multitone ever, likely audible amounts of jitter, odd frequency response, unstable output, odd phase...

    Humbling experience

    So I was working and listening to music on my PecanPi > Singxer SA-1 set-up all through the day. Somewhere after lunch, I had a problem with my mic and unplugged everything and continued this zoom/teams call I was in with the on-board I/O. Later through the day I kept thinking this Singxer SA-1...

    Digital Converter (DDC) interface with volume control?

    Was checking if this exists at an affordable price point. So far I found the Lake People DAT RS 05, but it's pretty pricy https://www.cma.audio/en/categories/digital-audio/format-converter/lake-people-dat-rs-05 For a moment I thought I found the perfect value contender in this Fiio, but the...

    Radial Engineering (Twin-ISO)

    Hey Guys. I was wondering if anyone here has some feedback on this brand? From what I gather, Radial acquired Jensen so their products should use high quality transformers. I can't read any negatives online either. I suppose one can't go wrong with this brand for this kind of product? This is...

    New Schiit Modius AK4493 DAC announced

    New DAC unveiled. 'Unison' USB, AKM AK4493. Modi's bigger brother. Measurements look "good". Only oddity is two separate output stages, one for balanced output (LME47924-based), one for single-ended output (OPA1662-based). SE one is performing better through the AP...

    Headphone amplifier with balanced pass-through?

    Just wondering if anyone knows of any... for example, the THX 789/887 have SE passthrough but not balanced. So far haven't found any that offer this. Thanks for any tips :)

    AK unveils new 'AK4498' DAC with dedicated D-S chip

    "AK4191EQ and AK4498EQ split the traditional DAC's digital filtering & delta sigma modulation and analog parts to reduce the interference between the digital and analog parts. The general idea is similar to removing the current-voltage conversion with the AK4499EQ. The more scattered the better...

    New: "Jotunheim R" for Raal headphones

    This just came out: https://www.schiit.com/products/jotunheim-r Includes AP testing from Schiit hence the thread. It says it can deliver up to 13A which seems insane. But, the distortion looks actually pretty bad at 1A already? I'm really puzzled by the AP report. Doesn't look very good at...

    Recommendations for DAC w/ AES/EBU?

    Sorry if this comes across a bit lazy but I'm looking for a DAC that supports AES digital in, and that will not break the bank. Would rather not spend a grand. Open to used deals. I just see mostly 'Pro' gear and more expensive products supporting AES/EBU. Would appreciate some extra input. Thanks

    [Sold] SMSL iDea (dac-amp dongle)

    For sale the SMSL IDEA. Had bought this to use with work computer. Not really needed anymore. As new, barely used. Sounds great, goes pretty loud for a dongle. It's really small which is convenient. Improves upon sh*tty audio of lower-end phones or computers (from my limited testing). This...

    Transformers adding some "iron" to the sound

    So I'm pretty flabbergasted how this is supposed to work, but many audio forums, gearslutz in specific seem to swear by transformers somewhere in the audio signal adding something fun/warm/vibrant/"iron". Transformers of note are Jensen, Cinemag and others. So I got to try some Jensen...
