Product Description
On today’s smartphones and tablets, the headphone jack is heading out. Those with wired IEMs and headphones need a solution, and Alpha & Delta has delivered Read More
Its compatibility with the latest iPhones is flawless. Even works with inline controls across all my headphones which the apple dongle was actually struggling with. I haven't run into any hiccups or dropouts. The braided cable worries me a little since I've had problems in the past with other dongles, but so far so good!
The dongle says what it’s gonna do, and it sounds pretty good. To my ears, the USB C version beats Apple’s version. However, the braided wires aren’t hardy enough for every day use. They came detached from the USB end, exposing the bare copper wires. I used electrical tape to mend it, but it keeps cutting out and disconnecting at random. Going in a different direction now.
Great Sound Quality and Durability in a Compact DAC Adapter
The Alpha & Delta MK2 USB-C and Lightning DAC adapters are an excellent choice for those looking to improve audio quality on modern smartphones and tablets without a headphone jack. Featuring an upgraded Realtek chip for higher bit-depth and sampling rates, these adapters provide rich, clear sound. The durable braided silver-plated copper cable ensures long-lasting performance and optimal signal transmission. At a reasonable price, they offer great value for audiophiles who need a reliable solution for wired headphones.
At first, this adapter blew me away; I'd tried several others, most of which had decent audio quality but would frequently exhibit this metallic feedback that made extended listening or dead air particularly awkward; these did NONE of that. Crystal-clear, no dip in quality, a genuinely amazing experience all around...
...while it lasted. Last night, maybe two months in, it crapped out. Left side doesn't work, right side has that familiar feedback. Triple checked with other devices to make sure it wasn't my IEMs' cable. No sign of any physical damage. Huge bummer.
Great while they lasted, but at 35 bucks after tax, I expect a product that's gonna last more than two months of casual listening.
AxisAMPBlame Tim Crook and the greed at Apple for failing adapters as they took the audiojack out to make billions on music canceling and environment polluting ear butts. ALL dongle dacs will at one point fail. The nice to looking braided cable is the worst choice for durability as with handling your phone the wire has a lot twisting and tearing to endure. The longer the connector the more leverage on the lighting or usb-c connector and port.
The only brand that manages to produce long lasting and top performing lighting DAC’s is Jcally. Especially their choice of ESS chips based dacs sound clean with a well tuned audiophile sound handling up to 600 Ohm cans. Jcally JM35L is powering my collection of redesigned Koss headphones for over 18 months now without a glitch.
