    Final Audio Design Impressions and Discussion Thread

    I recently picked up a set of the Final Audio Design Adagio III and here are my thoughts.   These have a very V shaped sound to me.  I've been using a set of Comply TSX-200 tips.  I've been listening to some DSD files on my Ibasso DX90 and Fiio X5 with a Fiio E12 amp.  The lows can hit very...

    Astrotec AX60 | Thoughts, Reviews, and Tour Impressions

    After listening to these for some time now I think they are pretty neutral sounding.  They could use a bit more resolution up top.  They sound better with softer music like pop or jazz.  They are not meant for heavy rock.  For that type of music I prefer the Ludacris SL99.  Those can really rock...

    Light Harmonic GEEK

    Thanks, I will check it out a little more.  I am only testing JRiver software for now.  I did spend about 1.5 hours configuring and trouble shooting Foobar 2000 and I got it to work with the 720.  The DSD lights up now.  Now I need to figure out how to install more skins...

    So if I change the settings to DSD like below I get an error.

    Light Harmonic GEEK

    So I have a Sony VAIO laptop and am using JRiver software.  Should this be able to play DSD files out to the 720 which I have.  So far it only shows 44.1k on the 720 while playing DSD files.

    Oh crap, that was it!  I can't get used to the headphone out on the bottom.

    iBasso DX90 Bug Thread - Post Any Firmware Bugs/Issues Here

    Now I'm having a problem with my DX90.  I just copied a couple of albums over and now I get a screechy high pitched tone and no music.  I did the following but it didn't help.   1. Took out the card to see if the noise would go away but it didn't. 2. Did a factory reset and that didn't...

    Astrotec AX60 | Thoughts, Reviews, and Tour Impressions

    I picked up a set of these and they sound excellent to me. They have more resolution than any other IEM I have. The bass can be a touch too much at times but I can deal with it. I hate the fit though with the over the ear rubber inserts not really working that well. The cable keeps falling out...

    Fiio X5 - Custom/Modded firmwares

    Who reads the user manual? LOL. I purchased the X5 because I wanted to listen to some DSD albums. The only one I have so far is Jimmy D. Lane with Double Trouble which sounds pretty good to me. I wanted to try Frampton Comes Alive but that was $50! So I got it from Amazon for $9.

    THE best female vocals? (your favorite female singers)

    I think Eva Cassidy had the best voice I ever heard. I just downloaded an Adele album about 2 weeks ago and that is awesome too. Whoever recorded the album did an amazing job.

    Fiio X5 - Custom/Modded firmwares

    Yes, am I not suppose to do that? Also, I noticed some static before some songs. Maybe for half a second. I notice this on a DSD album.

    Fiio X5 - Custom/Modded firmwares

    I have an X5 now and it has some weird stuff that happens from time to time. Sometimes when I hit the volume down button it will go back to the first song on the album. I can't go forward or back a song unless the screen is lit. Is this normal for this player? I think I have v2 of the firmware.

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    It's funny that you mention chairs. I work for a manufacturer of bus seats and instead of buying office chairs for employees they take a bus seat and attach a stand. It's very uncomfortable that's why I ordered my own office chair with my own money. It's a lot more comfortable than a bus seat.:D...

    Astrotec AX30, AX35 Hybrid IEMs Discussion Thread

    I don't detect much sibilance at all. Played some Eva Cassidy and didn't really hear any.

    Astrotec AX30, AX35 Hybrid IEMs Discussion Thread

    I finally received my set. I first tried them with the small foam tips that came with them and found them to have great clarity and separation but did lack some bass. I then tried with Comply TS400 tips and the difference was incredible. They now have great bass impact to go with the great high...

    The Audiophile Bass Lounge (Basshead club part II)

    I like the Soul by Ludacris SL99. To my ears these are awesome IEMs for the price. I purchased them for cheap when Newegg was blowing them out so now I have 2 sets.

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    The one and only thing I've learned while working is make sure you kiss your boss's ass! It doesn't matter if you're the worst employee ever as long as your boss likes you you're golden. I work with a lot of people that are so bad I can't see how they get dressed in the morning without help. And...

    Ear Gear Expo (EGX) at AXPONA show Chicago April 25-27

    I listened to this setup and it was amazing.  This gets my vote for best sound at the show.  It's an A&K Titan DAP and a Final Audio Design Pandora headphone.  I was listening to Patricia Barber and I never heard her sound so good and I've seen her live!

    Ear Gear Expo (EGX) at AXPONA show Chicago April 25-27

    Wow, good thing I was gone by then. After going to this year's Axpona I think last year's event was better. I'm not a big fan of the Westin hotel. I'm sure rooms are pretty expensive but I thought the inside of the hotel wasn't that great. At last year's event I was given a badge and moved from...

    Thanks, I just heard this headphone with an A&K Titan 120 and it was amazing. Best in show at Axpona.
