Rag2 medium gain is rounder, warmer and sweeter than low gain, while low gain is mostly cleaner, brighter, squarer. It really depends on the mood and headphone pairing, but personally I find myself going to low gain more often. I don’t find it lack drive (at least with my headphones I won’t go...

Hey I updated my post, turns out it might be a grounding issue for me. Buzz issue disappeared when plugged into another outlet in the house.

Mine also has a louder buzz in the right channel, interestingly only when balanced and only when set to 'headphone output only' The buzz goes away if i switch to 'speaker & headphone output'. It's noticeable on medium/high gain, but is unnoticeable on low gain (at least with my HD650, HD800S...

Can it also be used as a usb DAC/amp? 😀

Does the volume knob on AK HB1 control the system volume (on the phone / pc) or the device volume (HB1 itself)?

Just received the M12 apex module for my A12t, I think it's a really good pairing. The bass does get toned down a bit compared to M15, however it doesn't bother me much since I think M15 still has too much bass boost. (M20/M15 is fun at first when all the bass region is emphasized but for me it...

Hey, can you share where you get the fancy weight for cable management? Looks like a very neat solution for listening at the desk

one thing that i still can't wrap my mind around is why a 1-bit DSD digital signal requires 32 bit resistor to be converted to analog? How does the 32 bit resistor network work? Been searching online and encountered keywords like 'Serial to Parallel Shift Registers' or 'FIR moving average...

actually from sony's japanese website, the 'developer interview' mentioned it being aluminum alloy: https://www.sony.jp/feature/products/230411/?s_pid=jp_/headphone/_products/_MDR-MV1 There's a part under Point 3 about the lightness of the headphones. Google translated: The first thing that...

Just received an email from Drop addressing the driver plates error, seems like they will be shipping replacements to all customers from the first run. Very glad that Drop took action for this!

Thanks for trying this out and sharing the process, I assume I would also be do the same thing when mine arrives. One question I would like to ask is, have you also succeeded in reversing the white paper / mesh stuff below the plate? (highlighted parts in below pic) Looks like the paper mesh...

Sad to hear that they didn't fix the wrong plate assembly issue for MP units... I pointed this out waaaay back last november: post Generally I have a feeling that not even the Drop guys really cared for this product / cared to look into the already scarce community feedback :slight_frown...

and if you watch till 8:52, you'll notice that they might've installed the wrong plate on the right cup (the cut off portion's of the plate should be symmetrical on both sides, so that the sound enters the port angled slightly in front of either ears) they accidentally used the same plate for...

can't help but notice the DDF thingy (the black fin that helps create S-Logic 3 soundstage) in Z reviews unit has been placed in a wrong direction? looks different from the marketing shots. hope this gets fix in the mas prodoction units.

Does anyone know how to get ZX507 work with an external USB/DAC? I've been trying multiple cables and otg adapters but have so far unable to make ZX507 work with my Hugo 2. (In comparison I had a Android Redmi phone with type c around and worked with every cable connection I tried)
