Don't use this anymore but working perfectly as far I can tell, shipping within Europe is preferred.

Did anyone else notice there were 64 people watching this thread a moment ago?... Edit: This screenshot I took shows 63 and then it quickly fell to 22, asking cuz this sorta weirds me out.. usually there's a pattern of how many users are lurking a given thread, makes more sense for a bigger...

I think the Intona's at like 300-500 thereabouts aren't worth it for me and at that point would rather just wait for new Qutest for desktop solution, Chord house sound has probably won me over, ethier that or I go a DIY route. Rob said I think that every new DAC is gonna have the DSP options of...

I've been using Mojo 2 outdoors more recently and I could care less if anyone thinks this is placebo, but I swear the clarity from the battery and direct 1m USB-C to phone (UAPP in bitperfect) is absolutely inherently better than desktop mode + straight into PC with no galvanic isolation. It's...

https://songwhip.com/nils-petter-molvaer/streamer2004 This is an album I use to test for bass detail and texture/pitch definition, the 404 I owned was great but the 1 micron Sig from '87 despite it having a less tactile response is just better in techs all around. In general it's a great estat...

There isn't outright bashing and I agree a one box solution that would meet all of a users preferences seems ideal.

You're allowed say it man, don't let yourself get gaslit by the direct drive diehards here who haven't experienced your custom trafo setup. :thumbsup:

Is it easy or tricky to use car batteries for audio? I've seen Rob mention it a few times now, wonder how you'd configure it and if it's potentially dangerous. If anyone here knows I'd love a reply or DM, links to resources appreciated too, I'll be doing my own research anyway.

It is peculiar how one day desktop mode will take just a few seconds to happen, other days around 20 or so minutes, wonder if other folk have experienced this. Ever since moving things around, in fact right now having it not go directly into a wall outlet but instead from an extension lead...

Oh you poor soul, man hasn't even seen a Macassar Ebony ZMF set, yeah they're stunning, maybe my favorite looking. I believe goldwerger here was actually the first to ever own a ZMF in that wood, might've been the AO or VC I forgot.

Is Quartet the same as the new rumored "Dave Scaler" or is that going to be a completely different and more expensive upscaler? :thinking:

You could try the trick I found from the HE-60 thread recently which was, on the side that has less volume, press it against your desk with pads facing down and kind of roll it both length ways and sideways with a bit of pressure (you'll hear it making a sucking type of sound), might seem...

Actually it was probably the Bokeh thread where I read that, makes more sense :thumbsup:

Interesting thanks, think I recall someone else here recently saying theirs was 405 grams, which would be super light indeed!

Hi, how much does your redwood AC weigh? And are Redwood & Redheart the two lightest ZMF woods now since their introduction :thinking:

Yeeeeeah it's alright found some info on the HE-60 thread about it. Back to your regularly scheduled programme.

Guys question - got an old lambda that for the most plays fine into the SRD7mk2 but eventually after a few minutes of audio play the left channel loses balance, why is this the case? For the record, I've checked every other variable in the chain but is it possible that since it plays in...

Speaking of driver thickness do we know what X9K thickness is in comparison to older models from both Omega & Lambda series? Would be very interested to know!

Okaaaay, relisted again. Trying to fund for DIY projects and that's essentially the reason for sale here. I wish I didn't have to let it go but it is what it is.

Out of curiosity do we know what the cause of the driver imbalance is for X9K? Is it a loosening/detachment of the metal mesh stators (hard to believe since they're thermally bonded to the chasis), or the diaphragm itself decreasing tension or something. Interested regardless.

Tbh I have a feeling the estat game will have changed quite a bit by 2038, but we shall see.

If I had to guess the stage depth is now backwards and perhaps a gap in the seal creates a mid bass bump, other than that I've no idea since I don't own one :smirk: It's the best built Stax they ever made though, I wonder what they're gonna do next.

I mean, not right now sorry :joy:

Sorry folks this ad is withdrawn again as I've changed my mind for the trillionth time :joy: TLDR this earphone is good. Until next time...

Pleasure working with ardilla for this transaction, he was very patient through some problems I faced and we both settled for a change of plan which now succeeded! Would happily do business again :thumbsup:
