    xDSD Gryphon: birth of a ‘head-fi’ legend

    I honestly find it to be very silent even with IEMs, never heard background noise. I like iFi’s design that with this trick ensures to drive even the most sensitive IEM without hiss :) still I find it to be very well built, a real quality product. I believe right now as we are speaking it...

    The discovery thread!

    I stupidly sold them when I had to replace the cable after 4-5 years I had them.. Because they were not the most comfortable thing to put in your ear. I thought that I could easily find a better replacement, that has not been the case. But now with zerored and eq I listen just as good as with...

    Avid classical listener here and classical musician. You want to go neutral with classical, to reproduce instrument’s timbre with fidelity. It’ll be like going to the opera :D my etymotic er4sr were the best thing I’ve ever had out of the box, perfect for classical. After a hour or so I needed...

    I prefer groups like rtings, however at the end of the day what I do is a quantitative thing: I listen to more reviews as possible from whoever and then I consider only the things that get repetead the most.

    Head/Hi-Fi home sickness

    I have always with me my Truthear Zero Red with my marvelous Fiio BTR7. But 4 months? Man, I’d bring my headphones with me also. I only have Audeze’s LCD-2C, super chunky.. Maybe it’d be time to buy myself a new pair? :) One of the best portables might be Dan Clark’s Expanse/Stealth, they fold...

    Fa9 is the most beautiful IEM I’ve ever had, very shiny and polished. A real pleasure to have in my hands as I look at the metallic plate :) *my treasssuure*

    xDSD Gryphon: birth of a ‘head-fi’ legend

    Yes the attenuation varies with the IEM, I am pretty sure of that. I suppose that when we talk of “db of attenuation” we are referring at a standard to make ourselves comprehensible.. So I suppose that when I put my IEMatch to 3.5 I get half of the attenuation on 4.4, that makes it 6 db (?)...

    Er4sr is the best piece of gear I ever bought, I regret selling it.. One day I’ll probably buy it again because it is that good even if it’s not that comfortable, I saw nowadays they have made custom eartips, maybe these’ll work?

    I use my Gryphon with LCD-2C and it sounds superb. It's my main rig and I really dig it :)

    Audeze LCD-2C Classic - Impressions Thread

    The original come at a steep price (106 EUR if I remember correctly), but you are sure not to get sound deterioration. And they are suoer comfortable. The Dekoni aftermarket come at something like 50 EUR but they say they are way less comfortable and I suspect you get a sound degradation. Pads...

    MMCX implemented in a similar fashion of etymotic would be the best IMHO, they don’t spin and never had issues with them. Pulled out the cable many times and reattached it, always like new.. In my experience this design, if well implemented (good qc), is the best. You really risk to break your 2...

    I believe MMCX is the best from a technical point of view. Unfortunately it's harder to find replacement cables to your desire.. So that's pro and cons. But in the future ideally MMCX should take over 2 pin, I feel it's just a better design :) Also very curious to see updates from Dusk, I think...

    xDSD Gryphon: birth of a ‘head-fi’ legend

    I noticed that if I put IEMatch on 3.5 also the 4.4 headphone out will sound at a lower volume, even though not as low as when I put it on 4.4. So now I am wondering how many decibels I am lowering in each headphones out at every IEMatch selection, thank you :)

    Reply to review by 'MrDAndy' on item 'TOPPING E50 DAC + L50 Headphone Amplifier Combo'

    I've just entered the neutral game with Fiio BTR7 portable dac/amp. The principal limiting factor is about 85 db of resolution at 50 mv. Apart from this it sounds really clean, transparent and resolving. To my ear it sounds transparent, but I don't have a fair confront I can make. Would you say...

    Review by 'MrDAndy' on item 'FiiO BTR7'

    There's nothing to say on sound other than it is transparent. Perfect. Pure bliss. Very silent and very distortion free. A true high fi piece of gear at an outstanding quality. The bad news is you need eq to make it sound good as with all neutral gear. You have now 3 slots for peq (parametric...
