Looking for suitable interface or probably solution, so that I could accommodate two headphone or IEM for listening music from 1 source at the same time. - Preferably in compact size and USB bus powered - EQ for each channel is a plus ___________________ SOURCE (LAPTOP) | | | ? ? ? | |...

Hey everyone, I recently bought a Topping E2X2 and noticed that it has two inputs on the back: one for power and another for USB-C. Currently, I have it connected to my PC via the USB-C port. I’m using it with my HD600 headphones and was wondering if I also need to connect the power input to...

Hello everyone, I’m new here and this seems the right place to look for help and/or info. I’d like to upgrade my home studio, I’ll buy a new pair of headphones and a new audio interface. I'm very interested in the HD600S, and this is where my doubt arises: are there any audio interfaces that...

Hi everyone, I am looking for a unified audio interface to drive my HD600 (requiring approximately 200mW at 300 Ohms / 8V RMS at 300 Ohms) and also be able to connect my electric guitar and speakers to it. I do not need microphone input. I was checking out the Topping DX5 and Schiit Magni but...

I'm looking for a 2x2 audio interface. A “2x2 audio interface” refers to an audio interface with two input channels and two output channels. This means it can handle two separate audio signals coming in (e.g., microphones or instruments) and send out two separate audio signals (e.g., to...

Hello, I am currently in the process of digitizing a lot of older (1950's & earlier) media to archive online. We are starting with vinyl (33 1/3 & 45) and 78s. We do not have any record players that are capable of playing 78s currently, so we were looking to buy a 3-speed turntable with a...

I have a USB audio interface, a beloved EMU0404 USB. It's a bit dated, and the specs are not exactly top of the line, compared to today's best, but it's acceptable, and should save me having to shell out more money, in the short term, for the latest greatest USB DAC. I've been following Julian...

Hi, I wanted to increase the quality of my pc sound so i bought active speakers. But i had a problem on source side. The problem is that: I watched some you tube reviews and according to their advices, i bought audio interfaces. But they made distortion in sound or occasional intermittent sound...

Hi all, I currently own a pair of Edifier MR4 studio monitors running through a Teyun-Q16 with TRS cables. They've served me well over the past year, however I've been looking to upgrade as it is hard to hear anything under 70hz or so. I understand I won't be able to hear much of any sub-bass...

Can a 2x2, 24/96 capable (UAC1) audio interface for a mere 65€ from Thomann's house brand be any good? Well, I just happened to need something to take care of an XLR condenser mic so I could finally liberate the Audient EVO 4 from my office PC and use it for portable measurements again, and I...

Hey all, I currently have a pair of XENNS Mangrid Tops and a Schiit Magni Unity (with DAC). Definitely overkill but they're so good. However, I am unable to use a Mic with this configuration, hence I am looking for an Audio Interface. I realised I could still use my Magni Unity if I connect...

DGNOG UM22C 32bit/768KHz $116 There are many mysteries surrounding the audio interface DGNOG UM22C. Although the price is low, the chip used seems to be AK5552VN. It seems that no one has measured DGNOG UM22C so far...

Hi, here is my very first review, of the audio interface. The device under test was interface RME Fireface UC and measures were conducted on Audio Precision APx525 analyzer. Based on the results I started to worry that something may be wrong with the measured interface. Other RME product...

Here are my measurements of the Behringer ADA8200 Ultragain we purchased for the studio 6 years ago. Current price I see on Thomann Germany is 220€. The unit is digitally fed by our RME Fireface UC and analog I/O consists of a Topping EX5 and a Cosmos ADC. Let's start with the DAC part...

I have a Focusrite Scarlett 4i4 4th gen. It's clean and has a fair amount of power but I want smoother mids to highs, wider soundstage and more full bass. I was thinking of connecting an amp to output 3-4 on my Scarlett. Any DX3 Pro+ users with a similar setup? Do I simply get 1/4 to coax...

Hi everyone, I am using a PC and fairly new to the audio world, still learning about how things work, though I have invested my money for some gear like a dynamic mic (maono pd400x), speakers (presonus eris 4.5), and planning to buy a decent IEM (Truthear Hexa) for gaming and listening to music...

Was thinking about the Audient ID4 MKII but seeing the thread here about it's quality, just want to pass. I'm currently using my Beyerdynamics with the MiniFuse 1. But want to upgrade [update] I'm not that happy with the sound quality on the headphone output. As my LG-V30 literally sounds a lot...
