    Andro King was a 1 off for the infamous andro collector was it not? @Jaxz416 an Andromeda Gold is black 🤣

    LAiV Harmony R2R DAC Impression and Reviews

    Off board clocking has an application in-so far as you believe the DAC has a sub-standard on-board solution and you are using synchronous input. I only brought up phase shift because it's a funny thing clock enthusiasts worry about when it's only a consideration for metrologists & physicist...

    I burned a pair of Xelastecs like that 🤭 always gotta go a half size smaller than you think with them (just their sticky tips for whatever reason despite measurements) . Unfortunately for you there is a ML 🤣 hopefully M are good. Sometimes there's half packs 1xM 1xML (pairs) for in between on...

    I prefer the azla crystals with a half size down for the deep fit (detail on steroids). As someone stated above, a not so deep/flush fit gave them more "space". That's what I experienced with the size up in the M. Even though the M fits and holds better (the MS slips out after a while from ear...

    LAiV Harmony R2R DAC Impression and Reviews

    undefined You externally clocked it with what reference 10Mhz source? You know atomic clocks have phase shift 🤯 Why not use a Holo Red? Why second guess all clocks? You do know that musical clocking should be synchronous not so much "accurate", adding an external clock to a DDC slaving a DAC...

    Empire Ears - Discussion & Impressions (Formerly EarWerkz)

    I have average ears and the Evos are comically large next to the LX/andro/rn6. That being said, outside of some extra driver flex on bad days (me sucking at seating them) they're very snug and pretty comfy. I use AZLA crystals which are medium sticky vs the Xelastec (very sticky) and prefer...

    LAiV Harmony R2R DAC Impression and Reviews

    Multiple reviews were posted. 6moons bought his unit. Lachlan will have his soon but is doing the Schiit Yggy MIB video first. They will hit mainstream reviewers soon. I just dropped 8k moving cross country so I'll have to wait a little to acquire 😉

    It works for sure. No issues with solder or mmcx connectors. The issue is (having 2 super litz and 2 normal smoky), they get tangle-y unless wrapped in a very particular manor, every time.

    Introducing HIFIMAN Susvara Unveiled: Elevating Audio Excellence!

    Then it will die at its current price 🤭. The R&D is already done. They either move units and adapt or kill their own former flagship as it has been supplanted. If it falls. I'll heavily consider it. If it doesn't, I'll get a stabilized Caldera. I missed out on the color I wanted both previous...

    Introducing HIFIMAN Susvara Unveiled: Elevating Audio Excellence!

    Look at the HE1k family cost falling. It's better for everyone. If the Sus is re-bracketed outside of it's life cycle at 3.5k new then hell yeah. It's now SUPER competitive in it's second breath in that bracket.

    Ah okay. So only 48khz gets the treatment. But for ease of use you can change the "on top" (all to rate) to bypass the convolution?

    LX is all bass. Great, high-quality, huge bass. Kr5 is impactful lows with vocal forward presentation all around IEM's. For the time, the LX was a revolution. The IER-Z1R was(still is LOL) an illfitting subbass monster with spatial presence. You either wanted all of the bass or just the sub...

    Empire Ears - Discussion & Impressions (Formerly EarWerkz)

    I can hear up to 18.5khz without blasting volume. Tips are much more important than Cables. Even then, it's not the material it's the wire thickness (gage) which will influence impedance and ergonomics. The biggest difference you can hear is a 1-2dB difference in volume over the total Z...

    😫 are these standard plugins or all offboard? Also which color did you get? And do you find the stock case essential?

    Fir Audio Thread - Discussion and Impressions

    Sure, but isn't the room filters THE convolution? And if it's 48khz they won't be applied? So yeah, it has to be a typo or that it's much less of a load if you bring everything to 48khz prior to convolution rather than forcing the convolution plug in to resample at point of contact. I'm...

    No no. The flat cables are better. Trust me. Ergonomics and wrap are much better.

    Empire Ears - Discussion & Impressions (Formerly EarWerkz)

    Cables are not tone controls. They are either Prestige units, jewelery, built properly or not. You're trading Ergonomics for wire gage and build quality... buying a gold/rhodium/platinum/silver/graphene/ copper litz with a carbon core is just flexing your wallet not your common sense.

    Super cool, book marked. However! Maybe it's a typo? He says choose fixed 48khz '(can be toggled on or off, but *convolution will only work on sample rates other than 48khz with this on*)' Meaning... if you fix at 48khz convolution only works on 44.1/96/192 etc.? While 48khz is marked for "no...

    Why 48khz? It's resampling everything to "digital standard"? Why not native?

    You gotta try the FAudio Instrumental white tips! I adored them on the LX for the reasons you enjoy the Final E type. I forget if we compared these prior. I found them to be better E types.

    This. Tips are way more important for UIEM's than dropping 4 figures on some dubious prestige. That being said I hate the stock Evo cable 🤣. I'm still holding out between a C24 Ltd and a Fir coaxial clear/copper. Rolling cables is extremely expensive and very dubious. You could buy a whole...
