5.0 out of 5 stars Mobo mic in works 👍
I asked the question if this would work as a gaming DAC and output sound to my headphones and still have the ability to mic into the motherboard of my PC.I was told no but I can say that this setup configuration works without issues for me. (Runbing Windows 10, b550 motherboard, V-moda BoomPro mic, Philips shp9500, splitter cable).I was advised by a friend, researched throughly and came to the conclusion that this would be a good quality setup. The addition of this DAC has made it a perfect gaming setup for me and at a good overall cost.PROS:• this DAC played a part in delivering better performance than most gaming headsets.• I didn't think that bass and treble control would be very useful but I now find myself regularly tweaking them in various situations to optimise game sound and music to my taste.• Nice weight to the unit yet quite compact in size.• Control dials have a nice quality feel to them.• Noticeable cleaner sound when compared to motherboard output.• Good sound stage which is perfect for gaming.• I HAVE NO PROBLEMS WITH MIC INTO MOTHERBOARD WHILST USING USB TO DAC.CONS:• For convenience only, it would have been nice to have the mic pass through without having to split into mobo.CONCLUSION:I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a decent gaming sound experience at a good price point.
5.0 out of 5 stars Very impressive
I don't very often leave reviews but I felt this deserved one. I brought this in the hope I could take sound from my smart TV which at the time of purchase I never realised didn't have a 3.5mm headphone jack. I was completely baffled by this as I hadn't seen it before. So my only option was Bluetooth headphones, after months and months of crackles and sound dropping out and very bad audio/video sync issues I started looking into possible solutions and reasons why it was happening. I found many posts and pages claiming its the firestick or its the streaming service, possibly the TV, but then I came across posts about Bluetooth headphones and TVs, specifically about how it's a poor way to listen to audio? By this point I'd already brought a 2nd pair of headphones thinking mine were faulty. I started researching into ways of getting sound from TVs into headphones via amps and discovered these DAC amps.. I was skeptical about this purchase as its fairly expensive and some mixed reviews on here but the sound produced from this little amp (and I mean little) is extremely impressive. I've not tested it on any big over the top action movies but the sound is very clean and clear the bass and treble make a noticeable difference. Now onto music... Playing some bassy songs from YouTube and my headphones came to life and they boomed. Bass was hard and full, very clear mids and treble no distortion or crackling or white noise, I'm using some very old turtle beech headphones that I no longer use for my xbox, admittedly they were around £200 when released but nowhere near some of the headphones available today and the sound was awesome, volume turned up around 3/4 and you can take headphones off and hear the music and bass clearly without needing to put them on, I imagine a good action film with lots of explosions will also sound brilliant.If you've managed to read this far I apologise for the long review 😊 if your in the same boat as me and need to get sound from your TV then get this, it's highly rated Compared to others more expensive in its class, I got this on sale with a additional 15% off so cost around £56 and I would of been happy at full price. I can now watch TV without 1-2 seconds sync delay 👌👌BTW I'm using this via the optical cable which is supplied, and powered by USB from my TV, again this cable is supplied. I hope this helps people in the same position I was in.
4.0 out of 5 stars It falls well short for audiophile but it's £70....
For those looking for a really bassy powerful punch with high-quality sound look elsewhere. This Q4 is good but you get what you pay for in electronics and this kit delivers a £70 experience.If you want powerful, fully-bodied sound you're wanting a £200+ receiver/amp at full size or a streamer but if you can accept the cutting corners this kit gives for a modest price, it's a decent wee rig.
5.0 out of 5 stars Good beginner purchase
I bought Beyerdynamic headphones and these power them just fine. Design is sturdily built and the knobs have a tactile click. Great purchase.
5.0 out of 5 stars Playing with sound
So I bought a set of open backed headphones, Phillips fidellios x2. Excellent headphones but with the standard headphone socket from by gen 2 iPad Pro, were very bright and congested, then needed a bit of oomph.I search around, I wanted a dac that would both amplify and adjust treble and bass, and I stumbled on this little gem.Just to make my life a little more difficult I also decided to change the headphone cable as the Phillips are three meters long which just trips up the dog, so I also invested in some audioquest cable, but at£50 a bit pricy but do give a bit more clarity. Anyway this dac/amp is excellent, it gives far more oomph and bass/treble control, the result is more sound separation and the bass boost fills in a gap usually there with open backed headphones whilst the treble boost enhances the spatial quality of the music.At roughly a quarter turn for bass and treble you get a wider sound stage and a balanced treble and bass.I could now go on and buy a £150 dac but as the headphones only cost that it seems unbalanced expenditure so this is about right.The sound is really great particularly for classical performances, although even this set up is no substitute for the bass response from closed back headphones when listening to rock or dance music. But I still firmly believe there is no set up that works for everything, you mix and match depending on your preferences and if you like rock buy a different complimentary set up, any excuse to buy some more kit eh?
Calidad y mejora de audio en mini componente sony
Lo use para conectar la tv a un estéreo sony genezi fst-2000, la tv al fosi audio q4 lo conecte a través del cable óptico y luego del dac fosi q4 al estéreo sony genezi vía rca. El audio mejor notablemente y lo mejor fue que se se pudo ecualizar los agudos que es el motivo principal por el que adquirí este equipo ya que el sony fst-2000 daba un sonido de audio con graves muy fuertes, con este equipo solucione mi problema de los agudos y se escucha muy bien. Ya puedo ecualizar la música a mi gusto graves, agudos y volumen. Recomiendo este equipo si lo buscas para un propósito similar, su diseño es pequeño cabe en la palma de la mano es bueno porque no es voluminoso y cabe en cualquier lugar para instalarse, los materiales son robustos y de calidad. Como fuente de energía utilice la entrada usb de 500mA 5v de mi tv y levanto sin problema al equipo dac fosi q4.
Amazing Device! DAC & Preamp, Volume Adjustment! Works with SHIELD Pro 2019!
I bought this because I needed a way to watch my movies at night while the little one sleeps. Let me tell you about the rabbit hole of options that I had ventured into. I tried Avantree Dual BT options (range was brutal), I tried USBc DACs with basic 3.5mm only out(sound quality was not good). This was the best option... yes the wires are not ideal. But let me tell you its worth the sacrifice! You can buy little inline volume controls and have a silent movie night with up to 4 people. I understand these might not be a typical problem many have but sometimes the simplest problems bring the most complicated solutions.Packaging and weight of the device are awesome has bass and treble fine adjustments which is awesome for headphones. This thing is loud, even when split into two earbuds. I imagine you could easily do up to 4 without loss of line gain.I am using this with a SHIELD 2019 Pro and it picks it up and is plug and play. I imagine anything with android 11+ can pick it up as well. Switching between inputs is easy and well! I will update on the longevity of the device when I get to the 6 month mark. There is a 1.5 year warranty of the device not sure through who, but its a warm fuzzy feeling if warranties are your thing.BONUS: My 18 month old child unpackaged the box, so you could call it frustration free packaging ;)I am an audiophile with speakers in my whole home and used to install car audio equipment.This is an excellent device for anyone trying to solve the usb/opt out audio streams to multiple headphones. Or just trying to get a little more gain from your headphones for gaming.
Excelente!
Buen previo con controles excelentes de tonos.
Honest and good DAC
Very good product. Don’t expect a very deep bass or any sound profile on mediums and highs. It is a plain, neutral DAC. And for that, it does an excellent job.I liked the construction, the materials quality and the accessories that came with it.
Buonissima qualità del suono
Ho collegato il DAC ad un vecchio lettore DVD tramite cavo coassiale e ad un vecchio MacBook Air tramite USB. Funziona perfettamente e la qualità del suono è davvero ottima. La costruzione sembra di ottima fattura e la regolazione di bassi e alti funziona perfettamente. È anche carino sulla scrivania e adesso posso regolare il volume di entrambe la fonti dallo stesso punto. Rapporto qualità/prezzo eccezionale.
