Old phones as streaming sources
I'm curious how many of you have converted old phones to streamers. I have found that when I remove the sim card and shut off blue tooth and wire the phone to a dac with an appropriate USB adapter cable, my old iphone 6s makes a pretty good streamer. Just wondering what others experiance has been. It is a really economical way to source digital to a 2nd or 3rd system. You can even cut electronic noise further by running on battery power when listening and shutting off the screen once the music is rolling. Going one step further would be to transfer local files to the phones memory and turn off wireless altogether. I have not done this but theoretically it should help. I usually just run the Qobuz app and stream from that to my Chord Mojo. What's your experiance?

@bruce19 Do tell, what other streamers have you compared to the iPhone? Frankly, with your self-professed very compromised hearing your credibility on this topic is pretty low from my perspective. |
Hey @soix unlike some others on this forum I don't hold myself out as a self-annointed expert. I am merely a thinking human who likes audio gear and music. That exactly why I share my limitations. Younger folks may hear things quite differently, but ironicaly from what I can tell, they mostly are happy with much more modest gear. How old are you and how is your hearing? As for streamers I own or have owned they would include a Pi, an Auralic Aries, a Yamaha WXC-50, and an OktoResearch Dac8 and of course a couple of computers and iphones. Think I mentioned some of these earlier in the thread.
