The Sonys use their own specific DPort connection in the device, and it terminates in a standard USB 2 Fitting. You can of course adapt that to mini, micro,. nano or USB C . The Dport is similar but not identical to the older Apple connectionThanks
was considering the A55 or A105
do these offer USB C connection ?
I am pretty sure that any of the Sony Wna35,45,55 will be better than any iPhone. I suspect ..based on my experience, that the Cyrus if fed from the iPhone with whatever adapter is necessary, will surpass the Sony. But there is a caveat... It will look naff, and , any of these inline DACs eat phone battery charge. I learned my lesson when the phone died after arriving at the airport terminal in the rain and having a two hour wait for a bus.Thanks fro the very informative reply.
I have the Cyrus Soundkey was using it with a Samsung Note 9,, Sold the Note now have an iPhone XS Max. I guess I could buy the apple adaptor which would then let me use the USB C connection.
I like the Sony Walkman's and believe the sound output would be better than the iPhone.
just bought a portable Dac Headphone amp off the Classifieds not sure what to do now.
Might put the Cyrus up for Sale which would take that out of the Chain.
Thanks
