Музыка

Looking for a basic Dac/amp for gaming? I’ve got you covered. Here’s a look at the Schiit Fulla 4 and the Syba Sonic. I talk about overall sound quality, functionality, and also my experience trying to use each device on a computer and also with a PS5.

    I’ve been using the Syba Sonic for years and was thinking of upgrading to a Fulla e. This video was exactly what I needed!

    Great video man - D stands for Direct - not that it makes a difference! I'm very tempted by the fulla 4

    @@wmich1 Hi Will, No I ended up getting the Schiit Hel 2e a couple of months ago which is one step up from the Fulla. I ended up having issues with it repeatedly disconnecting and reconnecting. Unfortunately the things that everyone says about Schiit's QC issues are true 😥 In the end I decided to return it and I bought a Mayflower Arc Mk2 which sounds awesome and has tons of functionality. They come with 10 year warranties, and whenever I've emailed Mayflower the founder himself has replied to me directly. Can highly recommend Mayflower!

    I don't have the Denon receiver any more. Swapped it out for a Soncoz DAC and Fosi Amp. I did a couple of videos on that process. (and thank you)

    A MEMS microphone would have probably been the most appropriate, since that's what is mostly being used in headsets now days. Most run on 1.5V and are fairly efficient.

    Hi man! I hope to get a reply. I was wondering what happens if I plug my speakers to the 3.5mm of the Syba Sonic and my headphones on the quarter inch?

    Your comparison is not fair when comparing those to Dennon. It's like comparing a inexpensive stereo system to a true audiophile audio system. With all do respect.

    How can anyone use the Syba Sonic without any software or even a driver for Windows? When asked about software for it the company didn't even have any idea what I was talking about. The thing is a totally useless fraud! How did you get this to appear to work, was the whole video fake?

    Simple, the driver is already built into Windows and the device works great. Learn before you speak.
