Also this. I feel that this kind of products with their versatility can be excellent products if we can use multiple EQ profiles, Use as a USB transport or DAC at home with headphones and on the go with IEM- sydofne

[FiiO KA17] Mini desktop-class amp, flagship dongle is officially released!
@FiiO when will we get line out output to connect to external amp from this kind of products? They seem to have good DAC implementations and would make them even more versatile- sydofne

IEMs vs full-size Closed-Back Headphones performance (in 2022)
While I didn't listen to many iems and that much of headphones. In my experience, 100 dollar below headphones are not that great, below that you can get some IEMs that are really good and even punch above their price tag. After I would say 150 dollar where open back headphones start to be good...- sydofne

Cayin RU6: R-2R USB Dongle DAC with Head-Amp
Exactly how I feel my N5iiS driving the Sundara on 2.5mm, enough volume but no authority. I was searching for a transportable solution for the Sundara. How do you feel the gryphon on its own? Many thx- sydofne

FlaresPro/FlaresGold by Flare Audio
Hi, actually i have the Pro's for like 2/3 years, but because i do not listen out of home much, they do not get much use. However i have a good DAP, and sometimes i use them, and i think they sound good. i tried to EQ, to reduce mid bass, and just get that nice sub bass it has and i try to EQ...- sydofne

Philips Fidelio X2?!
Well i have had the original X2's for years now. I have made a few coments in this thread. But it is funny how back in the day for 250 euro they were compared to hd650 and such, and now that they are much cheaper they are considered thrash by some people. I always believed the HR version was...- sydofne

Audeze LCD-1
I know there are different opinions but some start to say he is getting paid by audeze to give a good impression for the lcd-1 and when he says it may be the "hd650 killer" all the hate comes. Well it may not be better in all categories compared to the Senns, but what i gather from his opinions...- sydofne

Audeze LCD-1
I don't get all the hate or disbelief around metal571. He is one of the few reviewers i trust and agree with the description of the sound of the headphones. Sometimes i think we don't deserve people like him trying in this community.- sydofne

Philips Fidelio X2?!
My phone is plenty enough to give volume to the X2, however power is not all. The Sabaj Da2 has more than enough power to the X2, but the modi MB and vali 2 gives much better sound. The smsl m3 is not that great. It is good for the price but that is about it. People should not assume that...- sydofne

Philips Fidelio X2?!
I can easily tell apart the X2 being driven by a dac/amp combo like Sabaj Da2 and my modo MB/vali 2. The imagino is much better and the bass especialy is way more controled. So they might not scale as some HP's but there is a real difference between better sources and amps.- sydofne

Philips Fidelio X2?!
I have an early X2 pair. I use it with modi multibit and vali 2. They sound great. Bass has good extension, not bloated. Vocals are not recessed and there is no sharp peaks in treble. However they scale really really well with amps. If i use it from smartphone or even a Sabaj Da2 amp/dac i...- sydofne

Philips Fidelio X2?!
Hi from Portugal, also have the X2's for a few years now. Bought them from reading online. Was torn between these and Senn hd600 series. Blindly bought the X2's after having HD 598 as my first good headphone, these were ok but i felt that something was off and missing, they have good qualities...- sydofne
