I've been running some MEXT iems for a couple of weeks now, and I do have to say if you're a basshead and you want some IEMs, these are the most potent I've ever tried. I didn't know if they would be a bit of a gimmick, but man, they definitely have some bass. I also didn't know how well the...

Has anyone noticed a sensitivity to distortion on these? I am doing a little audition of them, going to put together some thoughts, but I have noticed a few times some strange distortion, I noted it today in some piano keystrokes listening to Tidal on my computer via a Fiio BTR5. It's around 2...

Tidal also works well through Plexamp, which is a great app if you also stream from a Plex server, as I do. It will search both your Plex library and Tidal together, allow you to play from your own collection or Tidal. Solid UI, too.

Have you tried anything? I have found that it's album dependent. Some won't play at all, and some will. It actually seems that most albums listed as "Master" quality will play, and those that are only "Normal" quality won't. I did do a clear data, but that didn't seem to resolve the issue. I...

God forbid Tidal wants to drop support for 7 year old API endpoints. Their minimum requirement for Android is 6, which is nearing 6 years old. Supporting manufacturers that pump out DAPs that can't support current at release versions of Android means that you're going to have this happen to you...

I had a different A&K DAP (AK300) about 4 years ago and reported that exact issue to them. They didn't care. They didn't fix it. EDIT: I misremembered. The issue wasn't that it did nothing, but rather that the bandwidth was extremely narrow...

Appears to have cleared customs, it just updated, I had refreshed it this morning, and it listed that it had arrived at the airport on November 5th. While it just updated today, it actually shows it as having cleared customs on the 5th as well. But I track my shipments pretty obsessively...

Ours are together, as mine was loaded at the same time. It's in Chicago now.

You assume they would try to do it well.

This particular convo is about USB cables, I believe. You're right that with headphone cables it would be tough.

See what I mean?

Howdy all, I asked this in the DX150 thread and never got a response. I own a DX160, but I was wondering about this UI, which is nowhere to be found on the newer player: I know that I have also seen it on DX200 screenshots, my question is basically, is that the music player in Android, or did...

Oh you sweet summer child.

I was once duped by head-fi, we're all human. We'd be better off if we could all admit that it happens. And you're absolutely right, I don't know he's amoral. But I definitely think he is. I think many people that sell to audiophiles know exactly what they're doing. You're right that I...

I think I'll quote the banned OP after this conversation and bloviate for a moment. Anyone in the current USB discussion, note I'm going to be tying this conversation back to the OP, and not actually directly addressing the current topic of conversation. You've been warned. This loop is...
