@FenderP I am looking forward to hearing your comparison between VK-1 and H8. I really love sound sig of my VK-1, but am also thinking about getting a pair of NC headphones. thanks.

I've just bought XPA-700 from e-earphone today. been comparing it side-by-side with VentureCraft Go-Dap TT grey version for almost 2 hours. At the end of the day I realised that I can't really go wrong with either, so I chose XPA-700 over Go-Dap TT. Below are my brief impressions. Paired with...

Thanks a lot starblue. I really do appreciate your advice! My ears are really sensitive to the highs. From my past experience, lots of ios DACs( Sony pha-1&2, Teac ha-p50, Cayin C6, Fostex HP-P1, Venturecraft Typhoon) are too bright for my taste. I've tried Pha-3 for like 30 mins and found that...

Thanks a lot! my headphones (recabled ESW10) have severe sibilance problems. The mids seem to be perceivably more recessed too. I hope HM650 can lessen the issue.

nice collection!

Would hm650 fare well with bright headphones?

Is it compatiable with iDevices?

looking forward to compare it with my esw10 :)
