I have dac 1 and dac 2, dac 1 is forward sounding and vocals is better. Dac 2 is airy and wider soundstage and more transparent. I like both. May buy dac 3 soon but won't sell anyone 😊
Just ordered for 235$ included tax and shipping. I hope it will suit my Fiio FT5 well. Many other cheaper alternatives. But so many good words about this one.
Owned the hip dac 2, gave the to my brother. Bought the hip dac 3 now, is it a good match with the Beyerdynamic DT1990 Pro? Any other recommendations in same price class as 1990? Great review
Thx, off course I didn’t test all headphones with Hip Dac 3, you should ask yourself self this question, do i need a neutral amplifier for my headphones? If yes than the Hip Dac 3 is not for you, is not neutral but much more neutral compared to Hip Dac 2!
Never tested the ru7 but what i can tell you is that the EarMen Colibri review is coming in January, so maybe you can wait a little bit.Btw you can't go wrong with the Hip-Dac3, is simply extraordinary!
I need advice I can either buy hd660s2 and buy this ifi hip dac 3 later or should I go with hd650 and buy this dac/amp now considering the fact that if I go with hd660s2 I gotta go without a dedicated dac/amp for a while.
I will go personally with HD650 plus Hip-Dac3, and when you are ready you can sell the HD650 and upgrade with a better headphones. This will give you time to Experiment first, have fun and appreciate more the HD660S2 later!

Nice review! I like your voice and pronunciation. I ordered hip dac 3 and now I can't wait!
Thank you for the review. I own Hip Dac 2, and didn't find any strong reason to switch to Hip Dac 3 =)) All these adjustments are so minor 😂
I use it with Sennheiser HD 660S2, and it's amazing ☺️
@@orangejam I have the Momentum 4…which I even love with Bluetooth only….so can not wait to test with dac2
Best review! Thanks a lot! 👍

Great review. Im thinking on buying this to use it with my sundara.
Thx, fantastic combo👍🏽
well made video thx 4 the graphs
My pleasure 🙏
Hi, Between a Focal Elegia + ifi hip dac 2 or 3 and Focal Elegia + hiby R4. Which set would do better on terms of sound quality. Great review btw.
Would you recommend the Hip dac 3 over the EarMan colibrì? Great review btw!
Thank you, please stay tuned!

Btw, Can you tell me your opinion on the difference between the Go Bar and the Hip dac 3?
Great review man. is this good for Sundara. or should I get a desktop DAC
Thx , perfect for Sundara!✌🏾
Nice review! Have you tired the hip dac 3 with Hifiman HE1000 stealth edition? If yes share your impression please. Thanks a lot!
Thx, not yet!
@@MadAudiofficial Thank you for your quick response! I will be the first to try:)

@@MadAudiofficial Thanks! I ordered one, let’s see!
I had the hip Dac 1 sold it and bought a go blu. Now have the hip Dac 3 on the way to compare. Does the HD3 have xspace as well or only x bass?
I'm about to make a tough decision. hipdac 3 or cayin ru7?

@@MadAudiofficial may I ask also can this hip dac 3 deliver enough power for hd650 from 3,5mm output?
@@zajko3113buy a 4.4 cable and use the balance output. The Hip Dac 3, will move the 650 with no problem
Hi,
Is the hip dac 3 a good match to my Aeon Noire? Can the hip dac drive it properly?
Please check Aeon Noire review on my channel!
Is this strong enough for the Arya?
More than enough if you don't listen at crazy high volume!
What about VS the Fiio BTR 7 ?
@@MadAudiofficial
@lololololololol444 Never tested unfortunatly, but looking specs the BTR is less powerful and have a smaller battery.
Does this provide more power than the hip dac 2?
No same power!
I own the Fiio K7 desktop dac amp, i'm looking for something smaller, is the HD3 just as powerful and a decent replacement?
Однозначно ДА, этот малыш прокачает все что можно
