Hey jazzy, pls, share what connection you find better from A8 to TT2 ( no MScaler in chain). Do you find the clock of TT2 better?- Sharppain

64 Audio Introduces: Aspire 4 Professional Universal In-Ear Monitors
I am curious to hear about experience with it. So far, it looks like 'more of the same' just cheaper! What is difference from U4s in replay?- Sharppain

mmmm not sure, A6 dac is better than Hugo2. I find the Mojo2 dac equal to A6 in general (each is better in different things but not that much to point out) and the TT2 quite better than A6л- Sharppain

Reply to review by 'Sharppain' on item 'ZMFheadphones Eikon'
Hope you like it in the future. For me the surprise was big and unpleasant and the improvement (working well with OTL) was not enough to keep them. The bad service makes me stay away from that brand.- Sharppain

Eversolo DMP-A6 Network Streamer/DAC
Yep, this is quite a true statement but every one has to pay attention to "the difference is quite noticable with a decent dac". And here comes the deviation about what is 'a decent dac'. For some a decent dac is iFi Zen V2 but for me it is iFi iDSD Pro, for others it is an SMSL SU-Ultra or...- Sharppain

HiBy RS2: dual card slots, Darwin R2R, FIR, NOS, MQA 8x--news and impressions thread
How many R2R players are available at this price!? It has a line out so if you attach a decent external amp it gets very very good set-up. And some of the features are unique! I still love it, run it,... the only other dap I use is Moho2 - nothing else, mobile, below $1k is wotrth to me.- Sharppain

I think the RME is better for transport than the comp. In fact I would recommend you to take out the comp from your chain. I know that means quite an investment in sorce. USB is better than optical if your signal is clean. So no surprise from what I hear. About upsampling - not too much...- Sharppain

Great to hear! Get it a good source, a clean one (do not stream from 'noisy' phone). I use a Hiby R3 Pro Saber 2022 but the best is xDuoo X10T II Turntable Player, which is only transport (https://xduoo.net/product/xduoo-x10t-ii/). Cheers, 🍻- Sharppain

" I don't hear any decent stage in any iems so don't see much importance to comment on it, but it is quite similar on all 3." Hi, The ASR reviews are OK. I do not challenge the precision there. Second, it is a bad assumption of yours to think that I do not follow him and do not know about...- Sharppain

Yanec, I closed that topic with you by sending you a link to show you that an amp can have U-shaped reply. It looks like it took you time to find the two links for me. And you know - OOOOO my god, Space is so good, that is just close to RME ADI-2 and a step behind from Hugo TT2. Don't get...- Sharppain

THIEAUDIO Prestige Coming Soon
It is not making less noise! It's playing at lower dB since the power from the source is not good enough. dx300 has enough power to run any of the 3 iems but if someone wants to blow his ears and get fast deft that's another discussion.- Sharppain

THIEAUDIO Prestige Coming Soon
I do not get what is 'sound intensity is lower'. Sound intensity is normal - it is not a bass-head iem, nor has piercing highs; it's good for long sessions listening.- Sharppain

THIEAUDIO Prestige Coming Soon
Auch! These are 3 iems with very different replay. IE900 is a master v-shaped iem and has great technicalities but has some minuses like vocals are always distant, has proprietory cables and has to be used only with its stock tips; xelento 2 should also be used only with its stock tips and has...- Sharppain

Hi, very interesting set-up, esthetics as well - bravo! How would you describe the ef499. I am highly interested on its technicalities like resolution and soundstage width and depth. Would you be kind to share some comparison with smth popular or, let's say vs the A6 dac.- Sharppain

Yep, I have compared those. So, you wrong, again, with your assumptions. There is nothing wrong to like smth else more. But looks like you knowledfe for replay in general is lacking - DACs and AMPs cannot be U-shaped!!!! Case closed!- Sharppain

Starting from your last sentence 'seems....' - wrong, wrong,... I have both and extensively run them with Z1R, MMk2, Helios, UM Mest II, IE600, Oxygen..... I got the RS2 and Mojo2 very soon after their launch and have built very extensive impressions - I did a review of the RS2 long before...- Sharppain
