Will it work with The airpods max?

Thanks for the question. The Spectra X2 requires a wired headphone connection so the airpods max will be unsuitable. TrueToSource Customer Care

Am i missing something? i plugged this into my iphone 12 pro using tidal hifi and it just sounds the same if not a little quieter.

I have been using this with TIDAL as well. I found the biggest boost came when using low impedance IEM’s (my Shures really sing and get a great bass boost, plus the soundstage opens up nicely). Larger headphones need more power than this thing will put out and Apple headphones wouldn’t be a good match either. It’s a great little AMP/DAC for travel.

Has anyone else had this stop working after upgrading to iOS 17? It’s no longer recognized now.

We're sorry to hear about the issue you're experiencing. The Spectra X2 should work just fine with iOS 17. If you find that it's not being recognized after the upgrade, please don't hesitate to contact us.
