$200

 

They are subsidizing the cost.

 We will still keep the same supply price to our distributor and sales agents, so the MSRP will not change even we spend more money to make it better. so the MSRP will still lest than $200 in U.S and some regions, of course it will be more expensive in UK and EU because the VAT is higher than other regions. X3 is our first DAP, we are not going to make a lots of money in this project, but hope it will be a great start to us because we will keep developing more models in the future.

 

 

It seems like it will launch mid April. Chinese sales first with some online American sales to 10-20 American/Europeans as fun like they did with Mont Blanc. Test it in China for 1 month, and then release Worldwide in May or June

LCD-2's treble has a very nice slope to it too, nothing like the K/Q 701.

Wow, That looks pretty good, you'd need only 2 filters to EQ it into a near-ruler-flat FR.

 

Thought I'd share this:

"Amorossia" by Ceui

Playing with the MH1C again. Damn but I forgot how hot the treble can get without EQ.

Panda, mind if I go to your house during spring break or are you going somewhere (or going to be busy)?

Painfully sharp treble spikes, in the MH1c's case, around 2.8kHz

The vocals are much better seperated and clearer with Q701's. While with LCD2.2's they are just creamed into there and lusciously delicious flowy.

 

The instruments on the LCD2.2's are just there with good seperation. On the Q701's. They are very clean and very well separated. Instruments are more pronounced on Q701's and sharper while they are more balanced on LCD2.2's

 

With Bass, The LCD2.2's deliver creamy bass every second while the Q701's deliver just enough.

 

The headphones are opposites of each other but both have a different form of neutrality that they are looking at.

 

Now that I have heard the LCD2.2's

 

I can say...that I probably don't need to buy them.

 

Glad that your thoughts match mine. You did alot better in wording it though :)

hopefully

 

many companies do

 

200 USD and 200 Euro and 200 Sterling which is really not fair as 200 Sterling is 300 USD

 

The dealers will be the ones to decide

 

so check your local fiio dealer and see what they are currently doing.

 

If they are taking the USD Price and adding VAT or something else

Hot treble? I guess it is treble prone but I wouldnt' say hot. Very active

This spring break? Sure. 

 

I won't have the LCD2.2's then'

I can definately see how the 

HD650 LCD2 Q701/K

 

Were rivals at one point. Never heard HD 650 but now that I have heard these two. I can say that....the chart on lower gains is so fricking true

 

And looking at it now. Paying $75 for my Q701's means I just robbed someone very hard.

Perfume? Check

Fleetwood Mac? Check

Rise Against? Check

Beethoven? Check

 

Bases loaded.

 

Listen to Mr. Self-destruct by Nine Inch Nails. :-)

I just need to get out of the house and do something. I could learn how to code since I can do that now and it would make the summer a bit less stressful for me. I'll probably learn how to do Python first and then move onto HTML and CSS. Arduino afterwards?

Python

 

I remember those days

 

Got myself a PRoxy Engine up and running with it.

 

Forgot where and how I hosted it so I can't even use it now though
