Just a quick observation: Once the DX90 has some hours on it, mid gain sounds amazing with the K10's. It really brings the vocals forward.- Headiest

Yeah, I wasn't convinced about burn-in benefits until I heard it for myself. Can't wait to hear how much it will continue to improve! Haha yes, I did. But I bought them knowing I was going to get a better DAP eventually. Now I'm really glad I started with TOTL CIEMS.- Headiest

I have an AK120 coming in about a week or so and I can't wait to compare the two. I'm really interested now.- Headiest

I just received my DX90 today. Luckily I had a micro SD card already loaded with Random Access Memories by Daft Punk and American Beauty by The Grateful Dead, so as soon as I got it, I popped my K10's in and took a listen. I wasn't impressed. It sounded a bit 2D and muffled. My Macbook Air...- Headiest

Well, just got a DX90 today (it has about 3 hours of playtime) and it took my K10's to a whole new level. I'm really beginning to appreciate the genius of these things. The iPhone didn't do them justice at all.- Headiest

Thanks, I just ordered the DX90! I figure I'll test it out and if I don't like it, I'll return it and go for the AK120 (although coming from an iPhone 6, I doubt that's possible).- Headiest

The replaceable (and cheap) battery is a huge bonus for the DX90 as well.- Headiest

Does the AK100 sound as good with the K10 as the DX-90 does? Also, in your opinion, is the cost of stepping up to the AK120 justified purely by SQ? I'm just concerned about how long the device will last. Some people here on Head-Fi have had issues with build quality consistency...- Headiest

I'm very close to pulling the trigger on a DX-90 to compliment my K10's due to the positive reviews and price. However, reliability concerns have me a bit hesitant. What do owners think in terms of reliability? Does the DX-90 seem like it will last a long time? Am I better off saving up and...- Headiest

iPhone 6 & 6 Plus Audio Quality
My impression on the 6 v. the 5 is that the 6 expands the sound stage in terms of width and depth with a little loss of control on the low end of the frequency range.- Headiest

iPhone 6 & 6 Plus Audio Quality
I haven't tried the 6+ yet, so I wouldn't know if there is a difference. Probably not. On the other hand, I'm either getting used to the base on the 6, or it's lost a little harshness through use. One thing is for certain- it does sound better than the 5 (non-s). The tuning is such that I...- Headiest

iPhone 6 & 6 Plus Audio Quality
I totally agree, although the bass is too strong in my opinion. It interferes with other frequency ranges slightly.- Headiest
