If you want to use the Dac of the Sony (dacs dont make any difference anyway IMO) then you need to connect to it with a lineout. Which is usually with a 3.5mm (male) ā 3.5mm (male) cable.

Yeah but these cheap Sonys donāt have it. Main reason I sold it and got M3X.
I think I have it. It should be in the box somewhere. Iāll go try it out!

It comes with Fiio, but Sony doesnt have a line out. At least 105 didnt have itā¦
It works! Not sure if it sounds worst or better. Still sounds as good and enjoyable!
Just that I can now use both the A55 volume and the Q3 volume knob for more volume control.

Thatās because itās not a Line outā¦ Itās a normal headphone outputā¦
You should use the USB one for better quality, else music will be processed twice.

Oh pfft! Then Iāll just stick to the usb one then 
HFGF Community,
A couple of flags happend in the BGGAR thread recently that the moderator team believes touches on matters that should be addressed more globally to minimize the risk of future trouble for HiFiGuides Forum at large. One flag expressed concern over using photos of children and another flag addressed the image used by Moondrop in an advertisement - although there is doubt as to if the image was meant to be used as an ad by Moondrop. Letās address each of these in turn.
Posting images of the likenesses of people, particularly children, gets into shaky legal territory that the forum would be better off avoiding entirely. Moving forward, the mod team will be on the lookout for any images of people, particularly minors, that are posted when clear consent cannot be established. If we see such images, we will first ask the poster to remove them. If the poster does not, one of the mods will take them down. This guidance does not apply to posting YouTube videos that have faces in them (like DMSā or Josh Valourās reviews) or sharing professional ads that have images of people wearing headphones, for example. Those are examples of cases where consent is clearly implied. What should be avoided are posting images taken in amateur settings of any adults - and again especially children - who are either not you or not a child under your legal guardianship. Even in cases where the poster knows consent to use childrenās images is explicit, it is still preferable to not post those images as it can be difficult for the Mod team to verify that consent. It should be standard practice to find a different way to express the point you wish to make.
As to the Moondrop ad image, it falls under a category of sexually exploitative. The mod team affirms that the discussion about the appropriateness of the image and its use in advertising an audio product were fair game for the Forum. We also affirm that the posting of the image to start that conversation is also appropriate for the Forum. However, we also believe the image should have been hidden behind a drop-down with a warning to readers that the image may be potentially offensive and not safe for work. The image is shared in this present post below as both an example of the kinds of content that should have an extra layer of being hidden and also as to how such images should be presented in the future.
WARNING: may be NSFW
We will ask that the original post that contained this image be edited to this format and will be on the lookout for future similar posts to be treated similarly. And to be clear, this new guidance applies forum-wide.
To be fair, it seems that Moondrop may have also been a victim of someone posting this image without their permission. Therefore, this new policy guidance should not be read as an indictment of Moondrop but simply as guidance for the posting of potentially offensive images.
Thank you to all the readers for reading this post and for helping to make HFGF a fun place for audiophiles to gather.
Sincerely,
HFGF Mod Team

I donāt see anything offensive in the image of the MoŠ¾ndrop girl. This is a matter of perspective. And I really didnāt see where the semen was on her ass. This is a reflection that is found elsewhere in the photo. I donāt understand why this makes a problem ?!
Images removed.

Please be careful with your wording.
DACs may not make a difference in your use case, but they absolutely may make a difference to someone else.

@hawaiibadboy did Fiio sended you FD7 or you purchased it for reviewing? I saw your post on YouTubeā¦
Mangird XENN UP or Thieaudio Clairvoyance? Go.
Can you elaborate at all on this? Some of us feel that if Moondrop are responsible for that image and its messaging that we will take our business elsewhere in addition to not discussing them or their products here. But if what you say about the company being a victim themselves is true, Iād think otherwise. I havenāt heard anything like an apology or anything from Moondrop directly. I would appreciate knowing because I have been a fan of their products.
Thanks.

Old school rock, rock, metal, alternative, old school rap, reggae, country and some classical as well as jazz. Lol. Apples, oranges makes a great fruit basket. A beautiful disaster.
Just caught up to this thread, tbh Iām glad to see a lot of people having good morals here. That moondrop post was awful and seems to be removed as of now.
Seeing @Resolution getting educated on weeb culture was cute too
