    Review by 'Nap-Chiang' on item 'Audeze EL-8 Open-Back'

    Background and Expectation: I am fan of over-ear dynamic headphones. I have or had many dynamic headphones, but I have never own a planar dynamic before. I plan to buy the Audeze EL-8 as my first taste of planar dynamics. I choose EL-8 for 2 reason:  1. It is one of the newest planar dynamics...

    Review by 'Nap-Chiang' on item 'Sony MDR-Z7'

      I have to talk about my expectation on this Headphone first.  I am not a senior audiophile. 3 years ago, my first pair of AKG K601 lead me into this wonderful world of audiophile. This pair of AKG K601 showed me what is true sound of high fidelity, sequentially I bought some other AKGs...

    $500 desktop setup?

    You definitely need a DAC to feed analog signal to your amps, use a jack to rca cable will not work.  billybob_jcv's suggestion "Schiit Modi+Vali" is good. I also will suggest you buy a dac that has integrated amp; even through 300 ohm is a lot of imp, but both hd650 and dt880 are not power...

    Phonitor Mini

    I feel crossfeed function makes no significant differences to the sound. I like angle function, when you set angle at larger degree you can actually feel the sound stage is wider.  This amp is very neutral and well balanced. As an monitoring amp, phonitor mini is a all rounder; its highs, mids...

    Phonitor Mini

    I think phonitor mini is great little amp, very precise and balanced. It performed well with all the headphones that I have tried with (AKG K812, Philips Fidelio X1, Denon AH-D 600, NVX XPT100, Sennheiser Momentum, Beyerdynamic T5p; sorry all the headphones I have and I can borrow are low imp...

    Need Help!!! Choosing A Portable&Comfortable Headphone

    Thank you for suggestion.    The problem is that my local bestbuy only has momentum on ear version, some boses, and all the beats. I don't like any on ear headphones, Around Ear Headphones are my choice.

    Need Help!!! Choosing A Portable&Comfortable Headphone

    Thank you for replying.   I like the sound and look of Sennheiser Momentum. But some say the ear cup of Momentum is too small to be a around ear headphone, they may cause discomfort.

    AKG K812 Pro

    Wow, Audezes LCD-XC weights 650 g.  I suddenly feel the 390 g weight of K812 is very acceptable.

    AKG K812 Pro

    I love my AKG K812pro!!!!   Great headphone!! Only 2 points I want to complain about it: 1. Picky about sound sources. You will be able to hear all the details in your sound sources, even a slight imperfection ! As a reference headphone, it's good; but it's annoying when you found your...

    Headphone Help - Over Ear headphones

    I think Momentum is a great choice!!!   I like the sound of momentum very much, it sounds cheerful and vivid.    I will recommend Denon AH-D 600, too. Actually, I think Denon AH-D 600 is the best closed back over ear headphone under $600. The sound of AH-D 600 has higher clarity than Momentum...
