Raghav's handwriting 😂💀
Bro seen your vids for a long time, the attention to sound quality you give to a product is very impressive, thanks for covering such niche topic in Indian market
loving the new videos in these current production, i feel the blank background is nice as it is.
Thanks, that's good to know. :)
Thanks for this video we need this kind of videos keep doing.
Your reviews are informative and funny! Subscribed. 🙌🖖
:)
The kind of tech videos we need. Nice work. Veey rarely people touch the sound items.
I am planning to buy moto edge 50 pro and this product might be helpful.
Until now you have made only 1 video about your G-Shock. Could you please make more of it as I have seen you wearing quite a few different watches.
-A fellow G-Shock fan!
Thanks brother for making this video. But headphone zone team told me the issue with Samsung S23 that dac may not work.. 😢. So I am thinking whether to buy moondrop chu 2 or fiio jd1 or tangzu warner sg along with ddhifi dac.. Please suggest which one I should buy and shall I buy the dac also.
How about audiocular d07 dac it has same specs but half the price
will it be suitable for truthear hexa
Hey brother, I'm having samsung s22. The website say that it doesn't support s22, s23 and s24 . So I'm confused, will it work with my phone or not?
Hi Sid, How does it sound and how Is overall sound quality when compared with Apple dongle?
Will make a video comparing the Apple dongle and this.
Does it compatible with Samsung s21fe
Thank you for making me aware of this adapter.
I use Sennheiser bt 450. Will this make a significant difference in audio quality on my devices (laptop, mobile)?
No, it can only improve audio quality of wired audio gear, and the BT450 has drivers which are driven well enough by its inbuilt amps, so there's no improvement to be gained by connecting it in wired more, even to more expensive DACs.
@@TechReflex Thanks for your advice. Any recommendations for headphones around 10k? For music and occasionally gaming
@@gauravan6118 Can't beat HE400SE it's selling for 10K atm on HPZ
Should I get Apple's new type c earbuds or get this? I already own KZ ZSN Pro X. Which one would be more better option?
Will make a video comparing the Apple dongle and this. In your case, either will work well I guess.
how much difference does DAC make ? should i get expensive iem or this will improve audio quality of my truthear hexa
DACs do make a substantial difference, something like Hexa will benefit from this. The difference isn't always immediately noticeable, but you will keep finding instances where things sound cleaner than your phone/PC directly connected.
The difference won't make your Hexa sound like a higher end IEM tho, but for good IEMs, it is better to have a decent source.
Is it compatible with galaxy S20fe 5g???
kinsound vs this ?
How would you rate apple typc c to 3.5mm dongle?
Btw , nice video as always
Thanks, will make a video comparing the Apple dongle and this.
@@TechReflex 🙌
Will this make significant changes in my blon bl-03 audio quality?
It can only make a small difference when it comes to entry level audio gear, unless you have a bad source otherwise.
It will surely make a difference, but not day and night difference.
Kindly compare with apple type c to 3.5mm jack.
Will make a video comparing the Apple dongle and this.
My pc gives me static noise when I put in my earphones in one of the headphone ports directly. Will this dongle fix that since it works on digital signal?
Yes, this should help with that, you'll have to plug it in one of the USB ports obviously, and connect audio devices to this adapter.
I have kz edx pro, do I feel any difference after using it?
What's your opinion about those kz edx pro
If we do blind test with this DAC and without DAC, can difference is noticeable ??
I am using.. i am not able to tell that much
I will use it with my xm4 aux to aux connection will it increase my audio quality i will use hi res lossless audio on apple music...
Probably not, but you can try.
why not, any reason?
@@narenraj7268 those headphones already have a DAC good enough for their drivers, built into them. There's not much benefit to get by using it in wired mode.
The landing page still says it's not compatible with S22, 23, 24. I have a S22, will it work with the device if I manually enable otg?
It worked on my s23 ultra.Enable debugging change usb default configuration and reboot,It should work.Don't know if it will work next time. Also push the 3.5 pin all the way in to the DAC.
Didn't work on my s23 ultra.No idea why ..checked all the debugging options still coudnt find a way to get it work.
Edit: My bad It worked after reboot.( you can try changing the USB default configuration if it doesn't work I didn't change it though)
Also make sure the 3.5 connection is tight.Push it in all the way.
How is the sound quality? Is there any annoying noise while playing music or not playing music? Please let me know.
What case you using on s24 ultra?
ESR Magsafe. Had to remove the magnets from it as they interfered with S-Pen
Bro I have s23 Ultra and I want to try this but the website says that it is not supported. But your review says it words...Iam confused
It works. I talked to them, they did not know properly about this. Removed the warning from one place but it's still there on some other place.
Compare it with venture electronics abigail pro, both has the same dac chip,
Would both give the same quality, do i get anything extra by spending another thousand rupee for ddhifi x hz dac
Same DAC chip doesn't mean same quality.
Smart move, on paper should be same quality, same move I will do, half the price is big difference, also ddhifi x headphone zone one is rare
Will it work with realme phone? Recently bought a p1 whose sound quality is disappointing for the price. I have a bl03, will this amp be a good investment?
Yes
How's the fit on bl03?
@@mahesh-ox8rh not very comfortable with the stock one. But they've lasted me throughout the pandemic so if longevity is what you're looking for it's OK. After changing the wires, I've refrained from spending another 800-1k on tips till now, will probably have to in the next few months.
Sir, I purchased ifi audio go link .. but I wanna perchase ddhifi but lightning adapter is not in this box .. ifi provide lighting adopters.. it’s my good decision or bad , we use iphone ,, plz tell me
Other Lightning to USB C adapters will also work with ddHifi DAC, if that's what you wanna ask. As for it's sound quality, I don't think this DAC should be better than iFi go link.
today we use kz zsn pro x,
confuse which iem next for update. can you suggest to me which iem i buy? under 5000?- @@TechReflex
@@omshreegems6798 You can check out Simgot EA500LM I recently reviewed, it's an amazing VFM at its price, and even though it's around 7K, the jump in SQ will be more than worth it.
Are they compatible for Samsung s21fe?
Should be.
Brother can u tell me will this DAC work on samsung galaxy S22
Yes
@@TechReflex thanks
Does it drain the phones' battery?
Haven't tested that, but it shouldn't be an issue as it doesn't consume much power.
Bro will this work on my pixel 7?
Yes
Will it work on s23 ultra?
Yeah
Will it work with Motorola phones?
Yes it will
Bro will this work on samsung?
Yeah
@@TechReflex thanks
Me watching the review , while using the dac 😂
Me too bro.. how much diff do you find with these. I am personally using truthear hola and do not notice that much diff..
@@shishankagrawal668 I got a moon drop chu 2 and you can really notice the difference
Any dac irrespective of the price should sound the same. Because a dac is supposed to sound transparent, while more expensive dac may provide higher bit rates and sample frequencies, anything above 48 khz and 16 bit is honestly indistinguishable for the human ear.(That included the best of human ears).
Don't know about this specific dac but most chifi dacs are objectively worse than the usb c dongles provided by apple or samsung.
They colour the sound and have inferior signal to noise ratio, total harmonic distortion, and op impedences.
Ignorance can definitely save you a lot of money in this field. 🫡
@@TechReflex Quite the opposite really. Would've appreciated it if you had actually countered what I said instead of taking a short-cut and posting a rather snide response.
@@bablusonavne384 I have this dac, and Apple's dongle, this one is significantly better sounding. Also, you are totally wrong about the 'all DACs should sound same because they're supposed to sound transparent.' analogue signal that these DACs produce varies in quality.
@@TechReflex No, A DAC is supposed to convert the digital signal to an analogue without adding color to it and its quite necessary so it translates better across all headphones , if you really wanted to change the tuning of your headphone, just use an eq , don't even bother wasting money on a dac.
The biggest reason that this DAC may be perceived as better quality is loudness, it is definitely louder than the apple dongle, and generally a louder sound is perceived as better. It could also mean that the DAC when combined with your headphones fills in for the headphone inadequacies. Or that it is a better DAC than the apple (objectively) which is highly unlikely, considering most chifi dacs including the ones from good brands like moon drop aren't up to mark.
"analogue signal that these DACs produce varies in quality"
Can you define quality in this context ??
Bro It's Support Xiaomi 11i ?
Yes
Ios?
Works
Wht is use of that thing
Sold Out
Coming back in stock soon.
I want a Silver button on the background.
I have a 'gold button' ;)
@@TechReflex 😂😂
I would rather buy the Apple one which is good enough and also cheaper than this.
Will make a video comparing the Apple dongle and this.
Does it work with iphone 15 and will it make any difference?
ofc any dac will make difference compared to the stock one present in any phone
but in iPhone most of the dacs (even higher priced), don't support mic passthrough on iphones
so our phone microphone will be used in that case
does it work on S23?
Yes
