I would say they are similar in their sound, without getting into the nitty gritty as I don't personally have a Phantom, but have heard one many times, I do not think in terms of overall "iFi Sound" I think it's a safe bet that both are very similar. Perhaps folks can chime in that have both or...

At the moment I don't think (I will have to look) that there is any new firmware yet, this is not unusual, especially with a product we have been used to for a while, the firmware works as intended so there's no real need as of yet to have a new version, but I am sure some will come at some...

Thats awesome! Just love to see speakers in a setup like that still being put to use, makes me nostalgic! Cheers!!

No worries! I will have them take a look it as to be more clear of an explanation. Thanks, Cheers!!

Hello, No, you cannot do this, you could hook up two DACs using the coaxial and USB, only the lower port on the Zen is for USB DAC use, the top one is for connecting a SSD or thumb drive for direct music playback. Cheers!!

Yes once the beta testing is complete, it will be uploaded to the server for General, I am sure if it's not me someone will notice and post an update here. Cheers!!

I would guess it would be in the first part of June, nothing concrete but it's on pace for that. Cheers!!

Thanks for your patience, I personally appreciate it! And Thank you from iFi for your support we appreciate it! CHeers!!

People can make mistakes, and I have corrected it, but Thanks anyway! And I also said let me verify, as I did not know. Cheers!!

Here you go... From left... H= 3.5x1.35mm G= 4.0x1.7mm F= 4.8x1.7mm G= 5.5x2.1mm C= 5.5x2.5mm Reverse Polarity Plug White Cheers!!

Will do that, I did send him the pic you posted, I will update with any answer I get. Cheers!!

I will relay your post to him, in all honesty, I didn't know that's why I asked them. Sorry! Cheers!!

I asked one of our tech support folks, along with the picture and this is the answer I got... "That's the polarity adapter plug. Most things are center-pin negative. There are some things out there (guitar pedals and various other things) that use center-pin-positive" Hope that helps...

Apparently not, but then again sometimes it's never easy lol Cheers!!

If I remember correctly that is the last one on the list, "Polarity Plug (White)" but let me reach out and clarify this 100% for you. Cheers!!

I will certainly mention this as well in my communications over this issue, thanks for the thoughts. Cheers!!

Technically .9 would have been the "current" correct version, but as I said it was taken down from the server. I don't want to overcomplicate it, but you are on the "current available version" Some folks out there may be on the one that was 2.32.9 and was released last year. Again the newest...

All Good, Hopefully, the newest version will be out soon, and you can move up from where you are now. Cheers!!

Thanks for this, I will relay what you are experiencing to the tech folks as well! Cheers!!

As mentioned above, version 2.32.9 had dropped from the server, when it was reuploaded it had caused issues. This version has been out since last year so I am not sure why you would not have already had this version of firmware, however after the issue, it was decided (with the newer version...

When you are ready you can also post reviews in any of our showcase threads here... https://www.head-fi.org/showcase/ifi-audio-go-bar-kensei.27123/ Cheers!!

We look forward to hearing which way you went in the end! As an owner of the Pro range the Phantom intrigues me, but I do not know (although I have heard E-Stats) if I would ever go down that road myself, but that is the appeal (to me) of the Phantom is that ability. Along with a slightly...

I certainly hope so. The head-turning would lead me to a connection issue of some kind, but I am no tech. I have been trying to read a bunch about Android connection issues is where I am being pointed by these leads, just by reading I have come across numerous posts in foms about this setting...

Ah! That's good that you have figured it out, I probably wouldn't have thought of that myself! Cheers!!

I can chime in a little here,... While any piece of electronics can be prone to failure at any point, I can say that to my knowledge the Phantom has shown little to no issues in terms of needing support and/or repair. So if it was an instance of a part failure that is where the warranty comes...
