Reply to comment by StanGenchev in r/NoStupidQuestions: theoretically, could one access the Moondrop Quarks DSP's DSP code and edit it, changing its sound, in the manner of a "native EQ"? by Fernando1dois3
Agreed. If you enumerate the usb interfaces it exposes, often there's a serial endpoint for debugging and firmware update. Might be able to get the firmware that way, but after that you just have a binary blob.
Didn't know about pinebuds. Sounds neat.

Agreed. Also inserting cold metal into the ear isn't nice.

Some iems have vents that would allow moisture in.
Moondrop iems are also known to have a spongy filter that is a moisture magnet.
I'd get something really cheap for snow usage, the if the snow breaks them, no big deal. It would be a shame to ruin an expensive set of katos.
One of the £20 offerings like salnotes zero, trn mt3 etc.

I've had arias for a few years and I only have the slightest chipping. Makes we wonder how folks are managing to get them to do that!

I had the dragonfly black for a few days a while back. Ended up returning it because of the high-level noise floor.
So many better dongles for the price, even back then.

Source doesn't matter as long as it can do a decent BT codec.

Gotta admit, I'm pretty sceptical of all this "headphones give you a competitive advantage" stuff too.
Maybe fractionally. Maybe...

I couldn't detect any difference with balanced apart from volume.
I think balanced only makes sense over distance.

Don't worry about it. You are highly unlikely to hear a difference.

Can confirm, this is also an issue. Luckily I don't use EQ much, but I would have liked to have it as an option.

Reply to comment by Framed-Photo in Shanling M3 Ultra DAP by androidbrick
It's old enough that some apps are not available, but the main gripe for me is that shanling's attempt at backporting the gesture UI is not good.
It's far too easy to accidentally swipe back or to the homescreen, and that's very frustrating. I've given up and now use the floating ball UI.

Reply to comment by Lvnnyv in Say Goodbye to White Noise: My Impression of the iFi iEMatch by Owenwijaya89
I was curious too. I bought some impedance adapters from Ali express and the certainly do change Freq response.
I'd be interested for someone to do a proper measurement on the iematch.
