Trying to get a decent USB DAC to replace it

2018-06-08 01:31:48 UTC

2018-06-08 01:31:56 UTC  

Think the solder joints have cracks.

2018-06-08 01:32:07 UTC

2018-06-08 01:33:12 UTC  

cheap enough, might order at end of month

2018-06-08 01:35:11 UTC  

Though, I found the output impedance for the Conexant SmartAudio HD 20672

2018-06-08 01:35:18 UTC  

It's something like, 50 Ohms

2018-06-08 01:35:24 UTC  

It's an absolute crapshoot.

2018-06-08 01:35:37 UTC  

No wonder why everything sounds like shit on it

2018-06-08 02:05:45 UTC

2018-06-08 02:06:06 UTC

2018-06-08 02:06:37 UTC  

May I point you to the fact that I'm using ZS6's right now

2018-06-08 02:06:46 UTC  

🀒 buying garbage to fix garbage

2018-06-08 02:06:47 UTC

i'm still a little impressed that windows knows its a usb-c device and not just a usb device

2018-06-08 05:26:07 UTC  

Probably hardcoded the port

2018-06-08 05:26:18 UTC  

drivers n shit

>Now we have a huge renascence in 2 channel audio of all types, Company's like Schiit, SVS, Emotiva etc... Make the old guard nervous.

The direct sales, and many of Schiit's products are very disruptive to high-end audio. Your bound to make some enemy's.

Don't worry we are winning 😎

>And as an avid headfi reader, I have to say that this post doesn't match your usual writing style. Were you provided copy by anyone?

jude literally pasting a schiit rebuttal as if it were his own

2018-06-08 06:03:24 UTC  

schill

2018-06-08 08:33:02 UTC  

Dunno how you can think schitt is truly challenging any of the old guard

2018-06-08 10:11:45 UTC  

And then this will die down, we will live in relative peace for another 18 months. Until some other a$$hat with measurement equipment who is either incompetent or has an agenda posts something crazy.

Seriously though with all that it takes to make good reliable measurement data, I'm not sure I will ever put stock in it.

2018-06-08 10:11:46 UTC  

LOL

2018-06-08 10:27:01 UTC  

I'd claim that the fx-audio/chink is the greatest challenger if ever, right now.
Sure you don't get super crispy crunchyness out of it, but it sounds very decent for the money imo.

2018-06-08 10:31:57 UTC  

nah topping is tbh

2018-06-08 10:32:04 UTC  

maybe fiio
