    How do you know when you have reached TOTL?

    Which Hifiman HM60X will drive my IEMs?

    I have decided I want to try one of the HM60X series, but I want to make sure it will drive my IEMs cleanly. My IEM specs are 32ohm Impedance, Sensitivity 110dB @ 30Hz.   So which HM60X has enough power?   Thanks in advance.

    A noob is (might be) looking to upgrade his portable DAP

    I have been building a new portable system since my ER-4Ps broke a couple of weeks ago. I went with Future Sonics' MG5Pro as replacement CIEMs and have an Apex Glacier and a RSA Predator coming for DAC/amplification.   Now I am at the point where I am considering replacing my source. I...
