Considering that music reproduction is second if not first major feature of any iPhone, I'm sure that Apple, backed by all its resources managed to develop decent DAC, probably outperforming most niche products for a fraction of a price. I would logically expect that to happen. I tried several...

Yeah thats straight from iphone. I wouldnt bother for anything else for an IEM. I have proper sr009&bhse set up for critical listening.

Finally received my universal Laylas today. Having rather big ears I didnt have any problems with fit, silicon tips gave me the best seal. The earphones sit very comfortably thanks to the light weight.  Comparing to my Shure 846 and Sennheiser IE800 what I immediately noticed is that I can...

I actually tried to call phone number listed on the website during business hours in Virginia, but it was never answered. So far my experience with Justin communications is very negative. The only times he replies really quick is when you discuss sending money to him :-( After money are sent he...

Hi guys, Do you know if everything is OK with Justin? Exchanged emails with him two weeks ago about final payment for the BHSE, confirmed everything and since I've sent the payment by bank wire I cant get in contact with him, he is not answering my emails and phone listed on the website is...

So, what is the price of the DAC ? :)

Quote: +1   But after all, we all have different hearing, some people have an ear for music.

Quote:   Well, this is not exactly how it is supposed to be under legislation. And it was matter of luck that nobody at customs wondered why expensive wooden box with headphones made of wood is zero value :)   This is what they expect you to do:   Before being exported for repair...

Quote:   According to manufacturers:  LAu: 9W@50 Ohms LG: 6W@50 Ohms Mjolnir: 5W@50 Ohms B22: 5.6W@32 Ohms (3.5W@50 Ohms) GS-X MKII: Output Power 1 Watt (single ended), 2 Watts (balanced), not mentioned at what impedance

Quote:   There is another issue other than shipping costs... When it comes back from US, customs office will ask you to clear it again(VAT + import taxes). In order to avoid it, you have to fill out a special form and submit it to customs officer before you send the headphones for repair...

Quote: Justin, exactly in the same manner how I ordered BHSE from you :) And I wonder how much fedex will charge me to send it back, if it requires warranty repair.

Whoah, fedex quoted me 200eur to send full package lcd-3 back to states

Chart print date is 4-11-2013 for me. I used mono records and sound level meter to check the imbalance. Comparing to other headphones also helps. Actually that was the day I received my new HD800 that I realized something is wrong with my LCD-3, I simply didnt pay much attention before...

I have one strange problem with Conductor: when upsampling 44100 files up to 172/196k, using players like Pure Music or Audirvana Plus, audible clicks appear in sound stream from time to time, and that makes upsampling to high rates quite useless with Conductor. x2 upsampling works fine though...

Regular bifrost connected to conductor's amp section was a lot worse(very bright) comparing to direct conductor connection on hd800
