FAQ
Do I need a dongle or DAC to use the EA500 DSP?
No. The USB-C cable has onboard DSP that handles digital-to-analog conversion, so it plugs directly into modern jack-less phones and laptops — no dongle or external DAC needed.
Should I get the EA500 DSP or the standard EA500?
Get the DSP version if your devices lack a headphone jack and you want plug-and-play USB-C plus a built-in mic for calls and gaming. Choose the standard analog EA500 if you already own a DAC or dongle you prefer.
Will it work with iPhones and game consoles?
It works with USB-C devices — modern iPhones (15 and later), Android phones, laptops, and consoles or controllers with USB-C audio support. Older Lightning iPhones and 3.5mm-only sources are not compatible, since it connects only over USB-C.
Yes. TonePier is an authorized retailer — every unit comes from the brand or its official distributor, carries a valid serial number and is covered by the full manufacturer warranty.
How long does shipping take?
SKUs stocked in our US warehouse ship within 1–2 business days. Items shipped direct from our China hub typically arrive in 8–15 days with full tracking. The product page tells you which applies before you order.
What if it isn't for me?
You get 45 days to decide. Keep the packaging, keep it in like-new condition, and send it back for a refund. Ear tips unsealed for hygiene reasons are fine — we expect you to actually listen.
