I owned the Empy 2 and E3 at the same time and kept the E3. The Empy 2s bass is punchier than the E3, but it loses on everything else save soundstage. The E3 has a more pleasing FR and is every bit as detailed, if not more. The Empy 2 is a nice headphone, but I don’t think it’s worth the...

FWIW I had a Caldera and sold it to get a MR which I initially liked better, but after the honeymoon ended I sold it fairly quickly. I went through quite a few totl headphones, but just found myself missing the Calderas so I repurchased. Couldn’t be happier. I’m sure the DZ are amazing, but I...

Looking for a pair of Onkyo A800 headphones. I’m located in California. PM me with your offers!

Superb communication and no nonsense during the transaction. Extremely easy to work with. A+++ buyer!

Listing for feedback purposes. Cans are already sold.

I think I agree here. I’ve heard quite a few of high end headphones and I’ve moved down the price bracket to the 2kish range and found I’m not missing out on much. I used to own a Diana TC, which I loved, but the HE1000SE is arguably a better headphone at now less than half the price. I missed...

Selling the excellent Aful Performer 5 IEM. One of the best bang-for-your-buck IEMS out there with only a handful of hours on them. Includes all original accessories and a super supple HifiGo Kinera Leyding aftermarket cable. (It really is a wonderful looking/feeling cable) I can throw in a...

I’ll endeavor to do some comparisons this week!

Beautiful. These should sell in a millisecond.

Got some good listening ahead of my this weekend. Just got the two in the left in this week. Running on my modest Topping Stack (which I love). Never getting pulled into the amp game! Bring on the tunes!

Switched over to the Auteur hybrid pads today. Definitely think I prefer them to the Caldera pads. They sound a little more balanced to my ears.

Got my 10000SE in today. Better build than I expected. I was afraid they’d be too bright, but they weren’t…and relief washed over me in an awesome wave. 😂 I like to listen to new headphones for an hour or so when I first receive them to get acquainted with the sound. I’ll get some good listening...

Oh boy. I didn’t have the VC for very long so I think don’t think I can be useful here. Someone else might have to take this. lol

Took me a day to get accustomed to the sound. I’ve loved it ever since. 😎
