    USB-C to 3.5mm adapters (DAC) - Let's find the best

    After you have connected it in UAC 1.0, you should be able to select it in the sound settings.

    UAC 1.0 - like for every console, unfortunately.

    Campfire Audio Trifecta

    Trifecta OG: "It is more textural and timbral correct (non-colored) compared to Amber Radiance." https://www.head-fi.org/classifieds/campfire-audio-trifecta.68557/ I was not aware of any sound differences between the OG version and the new colors. That's certainly not right, is it?

    FIIO K19, the flagship desktop DAC and headphone amplifier

    No, it IS indeed quite precise and detailed. But for me personally, too lean/flat in the end, it lacks a bit of dynamics and musicality. The stage could be deeper, but it's comparatively very wide.

    I fully agree, what a shame! It should be valued much, much more.

    Great, thank you for your comment! The Holo Bliss is indeed in my radar, otherwise also Cayin's stack. I should be able to test both. I'll get round to it as soon as I find the time. I'm very curious.

    Come on, don't be so hard on me 🫢. I think the question is quite interesting, and I'm sure there are others who are interested in knowing what's going on. It was an issue for me until recently. The issue had died down until I read the posts today. I thought I already had the answer to my...

    Yes, a good idea in itself, but I'm probably too lazy to go there. It's more comfortable asking here 🫣 ... in fact, that's not the answer I expected. There must be something about this type of AMP that is different from what I know. Such improvements "sound" good. When I have the time and the...

    Yes ok, I knew that too. But that's why I'm wondering whether and to what extent desktop DAC/AMP stacks are suitable for IEMs. @Sajid Amit and @Simpeler wrote that the desktop equipment they tried was so great... if that means that the sound changes as I said, then I don't know...

    How good are desktop equipment for IEMs? With my N30, but also with other DAC/AMPs I have tested, I have found that I find low-gain better overall; otherwise the sound with high-gain and the like or more voltage is for me generally too clear, sharp / not musical enough, less black background...
