@@psychstudy6687 you don't really need a DAC for Blon BL03. The difference is totally noticeable and it's an improvement for sure, but they don't need a DAC to drive them. If you have something like a Moondrop Chu, then i will definitely say get the DAC as the difference with that is VAST.
I dont think so. There are very few DACs that I know of that support pass through for microphones. The ddHiFi Hi-Res DAC being one of them, but it won't support pass through on iOS devices and isn't supported on the S22, S23 & S24 for now.
@@PaulsPOV i already have a Razer sound card which has mic passthrough, i wonder if getting the shanling would be absolutely worth it over the ddhifi since i vc with people alot so I might have to keep switching between the two dacs also the shanling is out of my budget, its 2k more than what I was willing to spend, if it's absolutely worth it il get it (i.e its substantially better for 2k more and no mic passthrough)
Don't expect it to be substantially better. It'll have its own coloring for sound. I recently did a comparison between the iFi Go Link and ddHiFi Hi-Res DACs, and they're both pretty good but have minor differences in the way they sound. Expect the same with the shanling.
Sadly, this has been discontinued. My two favorites are the iFi Go Link and the ddHiFi Hi-Res DAC. I've made a comparison video between them. Feel free to give it a look if you'd like to.
I haven't tested the UA1 Plus just yet, but I have done a comparison between the iFi Go Link and ddHiFi Hi-Res DAC. Minor differences between the two, I'd expect minor differences between the UA1 Plus and the iFi as well. Feel free to give that comparison of mine a look if you'd like to.
Hi Paul, Big Billion Days and Great Indian Festivals are upcoming, So can u make a video about the best deals for TWS in these sales(once its live oc) if u get the time. It would help a lot.
I haven't tested the Tempotec so wouldn't want to give you any wrong information. I'm sure the guys at HeadphoneZone will be able to guide you in the right direction between these two.
I havent tested any wired headphones in this price range but feel free to go through the IEMs I've tested it this series. All of them sound well over their price range.
I dont see why not Ankit. As long as it's connected to a Type C female it'll work. Unless you want to connect to a USB A port, for that, it does come with an adapter.
@@PaulsPOV actually sometimes apple doesn't allow that. Like Sonata hd Pro has type c for Android but doesn't work with iPad pro unless you buy their ios version which has mifi chip. If you have ipad pro with type c try to check. Otherwise I'll update here if find out this answer somewhere
Oh man. Apple just keeps on giving. I'll do a little digging around and see. Otherwise try speaking to the guys at HeadphoneZone. They'll be able to check and let you know as well. They're pretty helpful.
@@PaulsPOV thanks for you reply sir .... Please suggest me best dac which support earphone in line microphone under Rs 3500 . I have these earphones 1) 1 more quad driver earphone and 2 ) CCA CRA .... So please suggest me a proper dac to drive my earphones and hava a in line microphone support
Oh thats a tricky one for me. This is the only Dac I've reviewed in this price segment so wouldn't want to give you any wrong information. Try connecting with the guys at HeadphoneZone.in, I'm sure they'll be more than happy to point you in the right direction.
I havent heard the Fiio Dacs but I believe they make ones with lightning connectors. I've owned Fiio products for years and quite like them and they're still going strong 8yrs later. The guys at HeadphoneZone should have a portable one with lightning.

I was looking for a good DAC and this video popup in my feed, Thanks for the review
Hello Paul! I can confirm that the usage of an DAC like this provides really better sound. I have an iBasso DC02 and this DAC get also slightly warm.
I've heard good things about iBasso. Keen on trying out a few.
Hi. Which one is better this or ibasso?
Keep going PAUL! Amazing as always
You are such a genuine reviewer.
Is this enough for driving cca pla 13 planar iems?
I myself bought the UA1 Pro from headphone zone about 2 months ago. Pair them with the Blon BL03. They sound great!
Happy listening Harsh 😊
Bro, I am looking to buy this for Blon BL03. Could you explain your experience? Is it highly noticeable with and without this DAC?
Blon blo3 without dac vs with dac, how difference i can notice ?
@@akhilnj10did you got dac for blon?

this one or shanling ua1s is better sounding?
I haven't tested it yet, so I wouldn't want to give you any wrong information.
Hello sir which one is better between this and the ifi go link dac?

Can a full-size headphone such as sennheiser hd600 be powered by this??
It'll struggle a bit to drive the HD600, being a 300 Ohm set. This is best paired with lower impedance headphones or IEMs.
My device have type a port can I use it with type a to type c converter?
This comes with a Type A to Type C converter in the box.
Hey bro this one or tempotec sonata hd pro is better?
I haven't tested the Tempotec so wouldn't want to give you any wrong information. I'm sure the guys at HeadphoneZone will be able to guide you in the right direction between these two.
Can u pls tell me which is best wired headphone. Rate many be upto 6 k but tell me best
I havent tested any wired headphones in this price range but feel free to go through the IEMs I've tested it this series. All of them sound well over their price range.
Can I used in micro usb smartphone by OTG 🤔
I don't think that micro USB supports audio output.
@@akhilnj10 I also 🤔
Does this work with iPad Pro with type C. If you can find out that would be great

does it supports earphone microphone???
Sadly it does not support a microphone pass through and doesn't have a microphone of its own.

Fiio ka1 vs ka2 vs ka3 vs ua1 pro
Which is good
I've only tested the UA1 Pro so far and not the Fiio ones so wouldn't want to give you any wrong information.
@@PaulsPOV can I use in micro usb smartphone
This one comes with a USB C connector so I'm not too sure if it will work with an adaptor. Its not something I tried.
@@PaulsPOV 😏
Hey Paul! Can you suggest a DAC for iPhone? The Lightning Connector is a bit headache 🥲
