Unfortunately I haven’t heard EM10.

I clipped the endings with a nail clipper and installed the OpAmps without any riser. It’s been a week and I did not notice any excess heating issues so far.

I would definitely recommend Elysian Pilgrim.

Nope. I used Z1R and Xelento 2nd gen with the 3.5mm jack and never had this issue. I did however use it always with NOS filter. I fiddled around with the rest extensively.

I do agree that wired is always better than wireless for SQ however for casual listening and convenience, wireless is definitely better. If your uncle really wants Bathys, I think it’s best to gift him what he wants. There is no other wireless HP that comes close at that price point.

It was W4_V1.0.1.6. Why don’t you try flashing the older firmware and see if it fixes the issue? https://shop.musicteck.com/pages/lp-firmware-upgrade

Meteor’s shell is big and is very uncomfortable for me. Sound wise, I would consider getting Top, Variations or Pilgrim.

I wouldn’t say Project M is an upgrade over EA1000. In terms of fit, you can try Eletech Baroque tips. They’re wonderful and I get a good seal with EA1000

Any review you see is mostly subjective even from the reputed sources. You can go through all the reviews, compare notes, find things that are common and make a decision.

Let some reviews come in and you can then decide. Looking at the FR graph should also give you little idea about how it might sound

Would definitely love to try the Explorer. @gadgetgod any review tour planned?

I did own W4 until last month and never had this issue. Did this issue start after recent firmware update or did it exist in the previous update as well?

Can you try using a different good quality type c cable and see if this is still happening?

I am currently using T71 and it definitely has neutral sound signature.

Are you using the stock type c cable?

Any impressions on how it compares to CMA15?

Qudelix T-71 is a better choice if you intend to use it with your laptop or PC. If you are using an Android phone too. Currently Qudelix has app support for T71 on PC and android but not for iOS. It has enough power for most of the HPs out there.

I opened the amp and did use WD40 contact cleaner on the volume pot while working it back and forth but it didn’t resolve this for me completely. Any idea which part of the volume pot I need to spray the contact cleaner?

Outstanding seller! Offered a great deal, kept in constant communication, and promptly dispatched the items. Looking forward to future transactions!

It terminates into 2.5mm at the amplifier end correct?

Purchased!!

LP6K, LPGT, LPGT Ti all have 4.4mm outputs. WM1A/1Z series of Sony have their own OS however WM1AM2/ZM2 run Android.
