phone

Hi! I'm interested in getting a phone for my music. I'll be having decent disposable income soon so I need to relive the nostalgia of downloaded music on my phone. What smartphones have good DACs? Also which of the new/recent phones with a touchscreen and a keypad have DACs? If you find...

Ever since my iPhone 11 battery exploded while using ddHifi's 4.4mm dac/amp dongle (ddHifi TC44B), I've been extremely cautious of portable DAC/AMPs that don't have their own battery source. Apple technicians had also assessed the damage and said it was due to third party accessory use. At...

Hello, new member here. I am looking for a USB-C splitter cable: 2 USB-C female inputs and 1 USB-C male output. Such that the USB-C male goes into the DAC device and the two USB-C female inputs are used for (1) 5v power (2) data from a USB-C output of a music player, phone, laptop. The current...

Hello, I'm new here, I've checked out some stuff here and there for a few years but I have a perplexing, genuine, audio issue right now and i trust that people here are knowledgeable enough to help I'm using a Moondrop X Crinacle DUSK, with the analog 3.5mm cable. I have a windows laptop and an...

My favourite device for listening to synth-based music is a Galaxy S10e as the sound is just so much better on it than anything else. The bass is much punchier, the soundstage is more immersive and less center-front oriented, and quieter elements of tracks seem to be brought up a bit. I don't...

I am trying to create a set up where I can play music from my desktop or from my phone via aux/BT. My main music library storage is on a external SSD attached to my PC (Windows 10 Education). I recently bought the Sony SSCS5-2 channel speakers. I've been doing research for the past week and have...

Not sure what is the best category to post this query. I have a Samsung Android phone, iPhone and laptop. I would like a mixer unit which could connect with all three units simultaneously via Bluetooth or wired connection for processing at least audio output from the three units, but...

I have looked and looked and cannot find a solid answer for my question. That's why I decided to finally make an account and ask rather than continue to lurk. I basically want to buy a topping D10s or an E30. I mostly use my phone as an input device because thats where I keep all my music...

Hello, as the title says I'm looking for IEMs under 100€ to only use with my phone and maybe sometime my laptop. I don't use a dac, just straight from the 3.5mm jack of my pixel 3a. I stream music from Tidal HiFi, I need these only when I'm going around outside (for the future since I'm stuck...

Somewhat technical in parts, but nicely summarized - I can't attest to the validity of their findings, though. From a personal, and purely subjective, perspective I don't find SBC, AAC, or aptX to be particularly bad sounding codecs when I occasionally stream via Bluetooth. No... they don't...

https://arstechnica.com/security/2017/05/theres-a-spike-in-android-apps-that-covertly-listen-for-inaudible-sounds-in-ads/ Clearly no audiophiles would be taken in by this. The 'inaudible' portion is the 18-20khz range that the article wrongly asserts is inaudible to most people. Maybe an...

When visiting on my iPhone 6 I've noticed that it's a little difficult to read in standard portrait orientation, for example: It looks better in landscape mode though. I mention this because one other XenForo site I visit has something configured differently which makes it much more...
