Compared: Apple Lightning Adapter vs Venture Electronics Abigail

[@shreetherockstar]

Let me clarify one of the important point missed. The apple dongle type C variant is much different from the lightening variant in terms of power and overall output. To put in perspective with my DT770 80 ohms I have to put the volume level to 100% while using the apple lightening dongle whereas for the same level of sound I need to drive it to only 60% while using the apple USBC dongle. Even the soundstage & the bass response improves to the level which can easily compete to DACs costing nearly 5k. Also android do decrease the power of the usbC variant but you can use apps like UAPP to redirect the output from the DAC instead of android resampling engine.

[@headphone_zone]

Hey there, thank you for providing further insight into the comparison between the Apple dongle's Type C and Lightning variants in terms of power and overall output. It appears that the Type C variant offers notable advantages, particularly in driving headphones like the DT770 80 ohms. The significant difference in volume levels required for comparable sound, as well as improvements in soundstage and bass response, showcase the capabilities of the Apple USB-C dongle. Additionally, you mentioned the possibility of Android reducing the power of the USB-C variant but highlighted the use of apps like UAPP to redirect the output from the DAC, bypassing the Android resampling engine. It's valuable information for those seeking to optimize their audio experience. Thank you for sharing your observations and shedding light on this aspect.

FINALLY !!! HeadphoneZone agreeing that Apple dongle is the best budget dongle out there for IEMs. I had no problem with type C on my Android phone so far, I use AKG K361. I had VE Odyssey HD but apple beats it big time, only place it trumps is Power output.

[@headphone_zone]

Hey there, the Apple dongle has managed to win over even the toughest sceptics! Who would have thought? It's always impressive when a small dongle can make such an impact. As they say, size doesn't matter, it's all about the power output! Happy listening with your AKG K361 and your trusty Apple dongle

I used both of them personally, leaving all the jargon behind there are three simple difference.

More specifically my right side is working and my left side is completely mute. If I twist it at one point it will start cracking, one one point it sounds like voice is coming from far away (you barely hear it) and at one it sounds normal. But that point is when you twist it and bend it in an "S" shape which is absolutely concerning. That is for kz dac. Now for your hzXddhifi dac you have to bend it in a "C" shape sometimes and sometimes you have to try so many other angles to get the sound ( it is so annoying and heart breaking because I spent rs1999 for it). So please suggest me a durable dac.

A couple of things are different. The build quality and cable quality of he Headphone Zone X DDHIFI Hi-Res DAC is just at another level all together. But the power output is the biggest difference-65mW. The Headphone Zone X DDHIFI Hi-Res DAC has a dedicated amplifier in built, that the Abigail Pro doesn't. So you can really amp the Headphone Zone X DDHIFI Hi-Res DAC up, and the headphones and IEMs sound a lot fuller, and more effortless.

good measurements and good sound are often two different things. In the grand scheme of things the apple dongle is only slightly better than a regular phone output (sound).

Apple dongle is harsh and congested, while abigail pro is smooth organic and big sounding.

Hey I have the same device do have any update? Did you buy any dac

[@karthiksen8967]

@@cratongaming4208 I don't recommend you to buy these third party adapters for this device. I did went to the service center to check up my device, but it was good. They said it's the compatible issues with other adapters. It only supports the xiaomi orginal adapter and these centers don't sell them. They only come with new phones. I tested these third party adapters on other devices like samsung, realme and oneplus and works perfectly fine. So I decided to change my device now

How can I listen hi res music on iPhone?

[@shriyashsonar2369]

Get Apple Music, go to settings > music, change the audio quality to hi res lossless or the highest possible and plug in this dongle cuz wireless and phone speaker will never give you the best quality like this dongle with headphones/earphones/IEM’s will

So we can use #Apple Dac + #iem to #iPhone with few limitations …. 1. It only supports Lossless not high resolution lossless 2. It only supports normal iem not high power driven iem 3. Do not produce much volume with android devices…

Sure.. you could. Nothing wrong in starting there.

@@syedansar7908 If it's, X60 pro Plus, you absolutely don't need any external dac The phone actually uses a Cirrus Logic CS43131 DAC and has the Hi Res certification as well. This DAC offers support for headphones up to 600 ohms of impedance. *This is the same dac I am using in my Ibasso dc04 pro an audiophile grade dongle which cost 10k inr*

India and European Apple adapter is pretty weak conpared to US one.

[@headphone_zone]

Hey there, the performance and capabilities of Apple adapters can vary based on regional variations and regulations. While it's true that there may be differences in the power output or other specifications between adapters designed for different regions, it's important to note that Apple typically designs its adapters to meet the specific requirements and standards of each market. This ensures compliance with local regulations and optimal performance within the given region. Therefore, the perceived differences in performance between adapters from different regions may be due to specific design choices made by Apple to cater to the needs of each market.
