iFi Diablo 2 Review - A Portable Powerhouse
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 лип 2024
- The iFi Diablo 2 packs a lot of power into a portable chassis. With battery life up to 12 hours and up to 2W of RMS power, the Diablo 2 allows you to connect any headphone you own, wherever you are. In this review I cover what's included, some specs, the impacts of various settings, and my opinion on sound quality.

thanks for mentioning the price at the beginning of the video .
you saved me some time
Thank you for this comprehensive review and introduction to this equipment. Rather, a pricey item, but for portable solutions, it may be an option for some. Take care, Sir, and all the best.
Yes, as another commenter mentioned, thanks for mentioning the freaking $1300 price from the very start. I just want a good but inexpensive DAC to go along with an IEM that I'm still deciding on. Leaning heavily toward the Antlion Kimura Duo. And also trying to find a decent DAC to go along with it so I can adjust volume or other settings without having to dive into software.
Can’t wait for that caldera closed video 🙂
It's going to be exciting to cover!!
Thanks for that great review.
We need more companies to do gaming amps. Outside of creative, there still aren't great options with low latency.
what's up brother can u do a sennheiser -hdv 820 with sennheiser hd800s on the ps5 and let us know if that is the best audio set up for the p5?
Have you had a chance to audition chord mojo 2? Love to hear what you think of it.
I don't what what it is... but I want one already. 😁
Please review the xDuoo XD05 pro dac amp. It seems to be getting hype.
Hi there. You have best videos about xbox headphones on youtube I found so far.
Excuse me to ask you not for the topic of this video. I heard on one of your videos that some headphones can connect via aux and bluetooth simultaneously, but I can't find any information on the topic. May you tell this feature name or explain how to find those headphones?
Cause for a poor choice of wireless headsets on consoles, I think on a side that to connect any bluetooth headphones via aux cable to controller and be able to use bluetooth for another device in the same time. Similar to "dual wireless" on original xbox headset. Is it even possible?
Thank you
Hey Joe, I believe you said you were going to Axpona. I know you have had some time with Alta Audio speakers at your home. I would be interested in hearing your thoughts (from memory) how you think they stack up to the Borresen X series if you listened to them at the show.
I went to the show, yes! I still have Alta at the house now, and also listened to the X1 at the show. The X1 has a tighter/lighter bass with much more treble energy. The Alta Alyssa has much deeper and more impactful bass. Vocals are more forward on the Alta, and they too have a little more treble energy than neutral but aren’t nearly as bright as the X1. Hope this helps!
@@GadgetryTech Thanks man for the quick response on this. Definitely helps. I am actually going to have the opportunity to try the Alyssa's in my room and pretty excited to try them.
Are you going to check out the ifi zen dac 3?
Perhaps down the road but I really need to catch up on other product reviews first, sadly. I have a lot of projects I'm working on at the moment but the Zen 3 looks great! As does their new Phono preamp
What would be the best audio/dac combo for everything all around gaming / music? I saw a couple but new to the pc space
There are a TON of them. ifi products get good reviews, you have focusrite scarlett series, UA has an affordable line called “Volt” as well.
@@nathangothan601 I’m currently looking at the
Sound Blaster ae-9 : Schiit Hel :Dx3 pro +
@@nathangothan601 yeah man right now I’m looking at the Soundblaster ae-9 , schiit hel 2 & the ifi zen dac 3
Really depends on how much money you are willing to spend :D the world of audiophile products is blasted with great stuff from like 200€/$ to thousands of yer coins xd ifi like mentioned before offer great stuff in the "lower" price Segment, also fiio has some too or topping DX5 or DX7pro are nice products aswell. it also depends on the needs of your connections. I for myself ran a fostex hpa4bl for years due to it being able to switch between speakers and headphones effortless and its really small formfactor :)
audiophool crap lol
Many prefer the iFi iDSD Signature Finale for that smooth sound many people crave which stands in contrast to the Diablo 2. It's also cheaper, also built very, very, well. and deserves the highest praise.
I hear great things about it! Thanks for sharing
