OPPO HA-2 Portable Headphone Amplifier/DAC Discussion Thread
Been playing around with my OPPO HA-2SE for the past day now, and I have to send it back. The lack of proper EMI shielding in the housing is unforgivable. It cuts out and glitches too frequently when stacked with my iPhone 7 for it to be usable. A small add of EMI shielding in the housing...- Bossatiger

Review by 'Bossatiger' on item 'Noble Audio Kaiser 10'
I purchased a second-hand pair on Head-Fi and got them reshelled through the Noble "OWNERSHIP TRANSFER SERVICE (ACRYLIC)." I chose to add Wizard reprint of a beautiful pattern I really liked, and added my own little signature. As many other reviewers stated, the sound is extremely cohesive...- Bossatiger

New Audeze LCD3
Okay, I did about 20 hours of burn in (white noise, pink noise, brown noise, silence, sweep, etc. at listening volumes) For some reason now the imbalance is pretty much gone. I am thoroughly confused. Mono is dead center throughout the audio spectrum and with my spl phone app, both sides are...- Bossatiger

New Audeze LCD3
I swapped the cable connections and I'm getting the same issue. In mono, the left side is louder. I don't think it's a cable issue based on the results of my tests, but I might be wrong. I am using the stock 1/4 Audeze flat cable I received with the LCD3.- Bossatiger

New Audeze LCD3
Ordered an LCD3 on 1/16/14 directly from the Audeze site, just got it today. Channel imbalance issues, left ear has audibly louder bass response. Tested with 3 sources, all on mono, also used an SPL meter on my phone. Very disappointing. Hopefully Audeze customer service is quick and I don't...- Bossatiger

Audeze EL-8: The EL-8 is a must-hear at CES 2015
Maybe I'll finally be inclined to buy an Audeze. I've always enjoyed their sound signature, but the ergonomics have held me back.- Bossatiger

Powered Sub for A7x
Hey all, I'm looking for a powered subwoofer to pair with my Adam A7x powered monitors. I no longer actually use them to monitor or do critical listening for mixing and such (have invested in a totally separate setup in another studio) so they will sit in my living room desktop rig. I'm...- Bossatiger

$200 +/- headphones recommendations
Agreed, get the Beyer over the Grado and AKG for electronic. I have personally owned the AKG K701 and Beyers DT770, and a pair of 125 (somewhat similar to the 225), the Beyer is just more enjoyable for me.- Bossatiger

Norne Audio (Was: Norse Audio): Feedback & Impression Thread
I've been cycled through a few amps and headphones in the past year or so. I began with an HD600, went through amps including a Schiit Asgard 2, Schiit Valhalla 1 stock tubes, Woo Audio WA7 stock tubes, and a Fostex HP-A4. I sold the WA7 a month ago, the Valhalla 2 months ago (did NOT like the...- Bossatiger

Norne Audio (Was: Norse Audio): Feedback & Impression Thread
Just made a pre-order for the Draug V2 in Black/Brown 5-foot HD600/650, terminated in a Furutech FT-763 with a Makassar Ebony engraved black painted splitter. Very excited. Any idea on the wait time?- Bossatiger

DAC/Amp for T5P with RCA out for Monitors
Thanks for the suggestion! I didn't know Schiit came out with a new version of the Asgard with preamp outs. This thing is exactly what I need. What would be a good USB DAC for the rest of my budget? ($250) I have seen good reviews of the ODAC and Modi,- Bossatiger
