i bought the vioelectric to drive my first gen t1 (sweet) and Hd800 (pure copper upgrade; stock cable was a bit too forward in the highs for me) and it is fantastic. especially so for the Hd800 lots of control and finesse even at low volumes. recently acquired the utopias and the vioelectric...

same here. Long term quality - and possibly reliability (specs) - seems to be poor for very costly headphones. I should know i have both the Lcd2 and Lcd3! (and hesitating with and Lcd4 though i caved in and got the isines)

I am enjoying FM rradio with my Sangean 200x - so reviving this thread, any quality DAPs out there with inbuilt FM radio?

intending to use this as a soundcard for my PC.  what's the best way to switch between speakers and headphones ?

  http://aqreviews.com/samsung-galaxy-...chip-equipped/ according to this the s5 has a pretty good dac: So the new Samsung Galaxy S5 will be equipped with Wolfson WM5110 mobile 24-bit/192kHz DAC (Digital-to-Analog Converter) chip which is one of the most powerful DAC up to date. The...

new dac in the s5     but that direct USB out option from the Z2 is also very appealing. if this is software enabled someone might just find a workaround for the s5. 

looking at either of these phones as an upgrade.   they're both very similar for phone functions, samsung edges it for me for the camera and fingerprint sensor ....but sony has the bigger battery that is so promising . anyone has any details about hardware inside?

i'm using the mx2 in Singapore where its 220V/240V, 50 Hz without any issues.

+1 for the output selector switch for PC crowd who often toggle between speakers and headphones depending on the activity just like the audinst mx1 and 2

the price of the mx-1 was too good to pass off so i went along and got one of ebay, direct from audinst.   out cold of the box it was a poor first impression - crackly, light and tinny - but after three days it managed to "wake up" and I am driving on AC power with my d700, HD800, LCDs with...

...and then there's personal tastes at work too....

cool .... reeks of "very high end"....can't wait for the measurement details but already anticipate it to work with the LCDs and HE's, Hd800 and T1 etc...   but since you asked :) tell us more about your sound signature - I know every fine audio equipment purveyor claims "neutrality", when...

still going through the thread to get my head around the science behind this (and the dangers!) but keep going guys... really ground break stuff.   just one quick question - would you think that it would be possible to create a "magic box" that gives users control over some of the key...

not difficult to expect that...beating the hd800 at soundstage that is going to be a feat though.

nomax you crack me up!   keep it coming!
