I just ordered one to use iem on my pc as someone told me even good motherboards dont give the same audio as this apple dongle but im in the eu i didnt know the us one was different and the person who told me is us should i just send it back as its eu version is half power ?
@@kinemosstechI think he means headphones taking only input from usb-c or bluetooth. A few headphones dont come with 3.5mm input and i think he just wants to know if he can run usb-c through the adapter to add a 3.5mm input to the headphones
Apple dongle it a great dac amp dongle.. If you are in a tight budget & you are using only earphones & iems then this is a no brainer.. But if you are aiming for the best possible audio quality for the lossless hi-res music listening experience & you have highend iems & full sized high impedance hesdphones then that is when the more expensive self powered headphone dac amp is a must & it is way more better than the apple dongle.. but the negative side of self powered dac amo is the size & the weight of carrying it with your player or even a dedicated dap is a pain when you have to carry both you phone & a dap.. but if you always have a body bag then the problem is solved.. For me I carry 2 iphones & the old model is for my apple music only.. Together with it I stick a velcro to attach my mojo 2 to my iphone that is always in my body bag..
doesn't the apple dongle volume lower when used on android phones if I recall correctly????
You can by pass it through some apps
The answer is at 1:44
Yes, you can get USB Audio Player Pro app to allow the Apple DAC to operate at its best.
It's crazy this stupid thing has better audio than my motherboards audio
agree with you. it can drive IEMs easily but not many bigger headphone, particularly plannars
Good for an I pad and Audio Technica MX50X headphones?
Haven't personally tested it with those headphones, but should work fine!

would this work from my bluetooth headphones with type c port to my pc
No idea what you are trying to achieve :)

Hi can I use these with any iPhone like a iPhone 5/5s or there is a minumum I'm talking about lightning version.
You either need a Lightning or USB type C connector on your phone
@@kinemosstech So I can use it with a iPhone 5s since It’s using a lightning port.
@@erkamyasirsimsek2300you can use the lightning to 3.5mm adapter. They're the same price
@@erkamyasirsimsek2300 Pretty sure
Apple sells a lightning version and a USB-C version.
so if i use the Lighting to 3.5 and plug my IEM into it, that $10 thing acts as a DAC?
Yes. It is a tiny DAC/AMP
@ appreciate the reply🫡
Hello there, Do you know if this adapter can be used to boost the audio from a DT 990 pro to connected to a laptop ?
I'm new to headphones, I'm planning to use these to drive the HE400SE wdyt?
Excellent video. Will there be any downgrade compared to bluetooth mode on my Sony CH720N?
