I was running music at a dance show tonight, it was someone else's iPhone through a lightning-3.5mm dongle into a sound mixer. somehow running the iPhone at full volume output caused the dongle to repeatedly disconnect, perhaps due to overheating? loving mortifying. so cool that a simple analog audio output has been hosed by Apple

To avoid further shame I would add one of these to your dj set bag

the lightning audio dongle is for casual listening not something you rely on.

The constant disconnect btw is not due to heat but for too much power drain. It was designed when the max output was higher so running it at 100% will have it break the new lower barrier.

yeah that's what i ended up doing but i had no idea what was going on at first. you expect these official apple dongles to be able to handle whatever the phone can throw out. to be clear none of this was my equipment, i was just asked to press button on phone at the right time

it’s a headphone jack not line out, the fact that that an impedance mismatch is even possible on the “standard” 3.5mm interface is a good reason to deprecate it

it means the dongle sucks and if they’re going to make the phone uneven in thickness to fit in more cameras most people will never use they could at least put the headphone jack back

airplay might be good though, it goes over wifi/ethernet and though i dont know whether the compression is lossless or high fidelity enough, its definitely much better than bluetooth, and the thing SlowBloke posted does it

depending on how many on-the-go changes you're making airplay has a built-in minimum buffer of 2 seconds (or did)

impedance matching isnt really a big concern any more. as long as your source has lower impedance than the load its fine

impedance matching is still something that doesn't click in my brain, which is going to be really annoying when I end up buying a proper tube amp head and need to match a cab for it

from this and your op it sounds like you might not be aware these things aren't passive devices? if you weren't, well, lightning is a digital-signal-only interface electrically based on usb. those "dongles" aren't just wire and connectors, they're USB dacs with integrated headphone amps

so my best guess is overload of the dongle's amp followed by self-reset, re-running usb enumeration, etc. while apple's dongles can drive more power than similar competitors:

https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/review-apple-vs-google-usb-c-headphone-adapters.5541/

there's only so much amp you can fit into that small a package
