    Sennheiser HD 630VB Review - First Impressions

    Well, that s me! The HD630VB looks much nicer and neat. I spent few hours listening to it. I did not notice a change in the sound signature and the adjustable bass function is intact. Now those cans will fulfil their potential in a way that I will use them way more than before. I had found that...

    Hiby R6 vs LG G7

    Thank you, I always wondered about that Chord Mojo and would consider trying it. I had the dragonfly Red before and could not cope well with its brightness and it was also quite loud. I am sure the experience with the Mojo may be different.

    Hiby R6 vs LG G7

    Appreciated the reply as I thought I could not get any response here and wondered that there were no people here who did not have the chance to compare them.

    Dear Members I am leaning towards the iPhone X but still wonder that Samsung S8+ may offer better sound due to the fact that it comes with a better Music player with Equalizer (such as Poweramp) I have found a noticeable difference between using the Apple stock player and the Poweramp on the...

    IPhone poweramp alternative

    Dear members Apologise if this has been covered, but the reason why I use android is that sound reaches full potential with poweramp. Even AAC 256 Kbs sound better that the ones in tidal hifi (to my ears) When I first tried the S7 edge with Exynos chip, I was surprised and found that sound was...

    LG V10 vs Samsung S7 Edge sound quality

    I saw the reviews for each one but I dont know how to interpret them For the LG V10: "Audio output is nicely clean, but not very loud The LG V10 produced perfectly clear output when connected to an active external amplifier - there wasn't a single one of its readings to be anything other than...
