Shanling often claim abysmal specs for their own devices.

Tbh the Apple dongle gives full dynamic range for CD quality for 10$. idk if anything can compete with that or if anyone is willing to pay more for a dongle.

For something you carry around and may be lost/torn over time, yeah you really can't beat it for the price

I mean the market is thriving. People evidently do pay more for a dongle lol.

And honestly, some of them even perform to a point you even question why even bother shelling out for much more if it perfectly fits your use case.

well you have to question yourself whether anything better than the Apple dongle has any audible consequences. (DAC wise)

for amplification prowess, it’s a different story. But again no one with a hungry high-end headphones would use a dongle for amplification.

 

[DosThou]

you can get substantially better, near top of the line dac performance for $30 though. but I guess if even that is too much you can just settle for $10 apple dongle yeah.

[QUOTE =“ DosThou，邮编：563674，会员：4001”]只是想更新一下我终于收到了MU3X，它看起来像是我想要的Type-C加密狗中的所有东西。0-100音量步长，5个增益级，5个可选滤波器，简单易用的界面，Type-C插座，可轻松连接到android和Windows，无需担心电池，永不发热，为IEM提供电源主观上听起来不错，没有嘶嘶声。价格昂贵，但我不介意卖掉我拥有的所有其他加密狗，希望以后不会出现任何怪异的作物。[/ QUOTE]

Asus has a USB-C dongle with built-in AI that removes noise from the microphone

I've been testing various AI solutions to kill the noise of my mechanical keyboard and screaming toddler on conference calls. In my observation it takes a fair bit of processing power to do this well so I'm a bit dubious on an economical piece of consumer hardware can do this well.

Well, according to the audio samples they provide, it takes the sound from "clear with missing lows and some audible background noises" to "no background noises but sounding like you're under water". Bleargh.
Did I mention that I hate overactive noise reduction? That "under water" sound is just the worst.

i'm guessing voice quality is probably not their main focus, but rather the removal of noise.
