Similar devies just that the FiiO is likely more well known and includes MQA support
UP4 is slightly cheaper right now
$84 vs $110
haughty girder
Fiio is more well known the same way Sennheiser is more well known than hifiman
both UP4 and Qudelix 5k are better than the Fiio
MQA is also kinda useless
it's lossy - not really better than a high bitrate AAC - while being large because it uses the flac container

Looks like the 5k is the same price as the FiiO so the cheaper option is most likely the one I will go for. AKA the UP4. Need a Bluetooth Reciver for wired headphones

its not about supporting upper frequencies

lean grove
like, there's hundreds of cheaper alternatives. but cheaper on its own doesn't necessitate good. and if your budget is $120 then its not like you have slim pickings for options either.
and for the record, "good" is always considering price. a good headphone means that there aren't better options at the same price or less.
errant wharf
I dont disagree, but you could have just posted your recommendations before you jump to criticizing the one option I recommended

unless its edition xs

in that sense, it's a disposable product

Yea they have really cool neice ones, like f. E. Desktop Boards with mobile Chips and Such - but if you get a Bad one - it gets annoying.
But to be fair, the issue with the missing Audio driver is not exclusive to cheap Boards. The issue is just that they dont give you drivers, and its hard to find out what Hardware is actually on there.

headphones are the most apparent upgrade you can get and amplifier differences are generally marginal per 200$ you spend
despite this you want to stick to dt880 and instead purchase an amplifier
warm scarab
it isn't like amplifiers make your headphones a lot better with a few exceptions all which are planars and higher end dynamics
to spend 100$ to improve a 150$ amplifier is not a smart deed to do
not to mention you cannot get anything notably good for that much anyways, it will be marginally better than a well functioning motherboard in a critical listening session at best

Yes. It's an improvement over desktop audio.

you can’t dsp the smooth upper treble extension
An IEM that has smooth upper treble on a particular rig has an almost nonexistent chance of having a smooth extension in your ear
The reason measuring above 7-10khz or so is so iffy is because the shape of your ear changes the response there so drastically.
You'd have to have an ear that was EXACTLY the same as the rig upon which it was measured
The only way to get a smooth response in your ear would be to find an IEM that perfectly matches your own HRTF in that region and position it perfectly every single time.
For which the chances are near 0

I guess flipping the breaker. If that means the power cut and I had to flip the switch back to the on position
There was also a weird crackling that would happen whenever I plugged/unplugged it. I think it was building up a charge or something
lean grove
Weird.
But HDMI passthrough is only on expensive speakers.
And still rare
So if that's what you need you'd probably be better off with a sound bar.
But if you can use optical then try and find an edifier which accepts optical.

Should I try to get a subwoofer with it? Or would 2 bookshelf speakers be fine?
There’s also one that’s just 1 speaker and a subwoofer? Wouldn’t that throw off the balance? I’m not and audio expert (clearly) but I thought you needed one speaker on each side
lean grove
Should I try to get a subwoofer with it? Or would 2 bookshelf speakers be fine?
Subwoofers aren't cheap and they aren't as important as the speakers themselves. So in your budget if you got a sub, you'd be eating away at probably 70-80% of your budget for something responsible for like 5-10% of the sound.
So I would get the speakers now and then a sub in the future if you want to upgrade.

Many "studio" subs (or decent+ subs in general) have a crossover and volume which basically takes the audio signal that normally goes straight to the speakers and splits it
then they have a passthrough so it can connect to the speakers
and they can place a lowpass filter on the signal for its own use
If your receiver/amp supports it, the sub doesn't need it

most powered subs only have a subwoofer "crossover" (lowpass knob), and dont highpass the speakers

but I assume that at these "lower" prices
you set the lowpass to match with the rolloff of the main speakers

it's basically just analog room correction eq
Room correction and Room treatment solve different issues.
Room correction targets frequency response issues caused by room modes/comb filtering etc etc.
Room treatment whilst it can help with room modes is primarily targeting reflections and decay.
DSP cannot solve reflections/decay other than at lower frequencies and with some unorthodox tools.
And room treatment cannot solve FR issues in the same way DSP can
A top tier system would utilise both, but the idea that they are substitutes for one another or that you don't need room treatment if you use room correction is a myth

USB dongle like 2.4 ghz
FWIW, I use the SteelSeries Arctis 1.
It uses a USB-C dongle, but comes with a Type-A adapter cable (which you will need to use if using the headset on PC).
Razer Barracuda X is another option to consider.
Cloud ll is a solid choice though.

So I’m not sure if anyone can answer a question for me or not… I have my phone set to listen for “Siri” or “hey siri” but recently my HomePod mini had an update and its doing the same thing but when I changed it to only listen for “hey siri” it didn’t seem to change and and still listens for “Siri”
