Docking Case for OPPO HA-2 Headphone Amplifier and iPhone 6, 6S

I really wanted to like this product. It was exactly what I needed - I own the HA-2SE and an iPhone 7 - so I thought this would be a perfect solution for carrying around my phone and DAC. Wow, was I wrong. This thing disconnects ever minute or so, causing music to stop, or sometimes continue to play, but out of the phone's speakers. On my (rather short) walk to work I have to "reset" the phone and DAC least 7 - 8 times. Turning it on and off, plugging and unplugging it over and over again. Super frustrating! I thought this might be happening because I was moving around too much. Nope. It had the same problems when I used it on a desk. It fits the SE *super* snugly, as in you feel like you are going to break it when you connect or disconnect it. If this case actually kept the phone and DAC connected - I would gladly pay more for it! It feels and looks rather nice. I've used it way to long in this broken state, in the hopes it would just start working. No more. I am finally giving up and going back to cables and bands. Plus one star for the niche idea, 4 stars off for literally not working.

There are few people willing to buy an item as niche as this, as it requires an Oppo ha-2, and iphone 6/6S, and a pair of headphones that will benefit from such a powerful amp. So after using this product for a few days, I can tell you that:Pros:1. The case has a matte finish, which both looks and feels amazing. However, it's prone to picking up fingerprints, especially since you'll be touching the case a ton to change the song, etc.2. The iPhone and Amp are both very secure inside the case. Unless the case is broken, it's impossible for the iPhone to fall forwards out of the case. Additionally, both the iPhone and Amp will not slip out if the case is flipped outside down and vigorously shaken.3. You can access the iPhone home/power/volume buttons, as well as all the Amp switches and buttons while both are inside the case.4. The case itself does not add any significant width by itself. However, the thickness of the product is still the combined thickness of an iPhone plus the Amp, which is fairly bulky and heavy, especially in the pocket.5. Is MUCH more convenient than having a short lightning cable + a few silicone rubber bands.6. Looks and feels sexy.Cons:1. Neither device can be charged from an outside source while inside the case, so it's basically only useful when you're out or moving about.2. The iPhone won't fit if there's any case on it.3. Not entire sure if the ~$45 dollar price tag (shipping) is fully justified.

I actually 'would have loved it' - if only my Opponent HA-2SE would fit the USB plug... the Lightning socket for the iPhone 6 fits perfectly, but the USB socket for the HA-2SE is TOO BIG. I had hope to return this for an exchange but I already forgot, so I will have to 'suck-it-in' and keep it, unless you will still honour the return?
