Maktar Spectra X2 Portable DAC Headphone Amplifier | Lightning to 3.5mm Adapter | Hi-Res 32bit/384kHz ESS Sabre | MFi Certified | Lossless Audio for iPhone iPad

I have only had this device for a few days and have yet to take it through it’s paces with my tougher to drive headphones. So far, I’ve logged a lot of time on the Westone W80. These IEMs are really efficient and sound surprising acceptable connected to the basic iPhone DAC cable; they are absolutely stunning running through the X2. The design is simple, smaller than a fountain pen and built rock solid. I’ll spare you the audiophile jargon and simply say if you listen to Hi-Res audio through an iOS device you cannot go wrong with the Maktar Spectra X2. While the X2 is nearly perfect, my only grip is that a device with this form factor and at this price point should really have an app to dial in the EQ. That said, I am extremely pleased with my purchase. EDIT: I tried this device with my HD 650. These headphones are notoriously power hungry. While the sound was clean there just wasn’t enough power to drive them. If you are expecting to use the X2 to push 300Ω, you are going to have a bad time. The description says as much. Not the reason I purchased this. My 5 star rating still applies. EDIT 2: A month in, I love this more than ever. I bought a right angle lightning adapter as I was afraid the attached cable may eventually fray and wear out. There was no evidence that this was the case but it was giving me anxiety. I’ve output the X2 to my primary desktop headphone amp. Pure audible bliss with the HD 650. My greatest fear now is that Apple will replace the lightning port on their phones.

コンパクトかつ高音質で音楽を聴きたいと思いヘッドホンアンプを探していましたがこの商品を購入しましたが、音質が上がりました(どちらかと言うと低音から高音まで全部の音が良くなりました)ハイレゾ音源を聴く方におすすめです

人気があって品薄状態なのでしょうか。随分と待ちました。

以前Lightning版を購入していたのですがApple純正のタイプC変換コネクターを試したところiPhone16Proで使用できました。ケーブルがちょっと長くなりますが買い替えしないで使用できたので嬉しかったです。非純正の変換コネクターではダメでしたので純正が確実です。

再生音質はクリアで奥行きがあり透き通った中高音が出ます。 低音は少し物足りない。 音質としては個性として受け取れるけど曲間に結構大きめのポップノイズがあります。 この値段のDACでノイズ対策してないのか、という感じ。 素晴らしい音質の曲間に入る無粋なポップノイズ。どうにも気になって仕方なく音楽に集中できません。
