hi everyone,
I'm new to audio, and I just recently bought IFI DAC HIP. It works well and improves sound quality a lot on my android ( Xiaomi Mi 11).
But when I plug that DAC with my Macbook pro 16 inch - 2019, the sound quality is dropped to around 30% ( for the bass - based on my feeling ). Which means listen directly from 3.5 port on Macbook provide better sound.
That makes me confused now, isn't it external DAC supposed to improve sound regardless the source ?
Thanks for reading.
