I was thinking it must do something smooth for you to be listening to so much metal on those Diana's haha
😁
I do love some brutal music.
The vegan ported pads on the V2 keep it less lethal but still detailed.
Cheers 🍻

For this I was listening with Sony hap-z1es-> Ferrum Hypsos Oor-> Abyss Diana V2.
How about the sound of the Sony hap-z1es, I have never tried it

How do you consider your listening combination for metal?

Hombre, ese es un transporte genial. Me hizo mirar los transportes de Sony ahora.

También me quedaré con ese álbum de Kanine. Eso es jodidamente maravilloso.
What dap do you use?

The Sony hap-z1es has been my only digital audio player so I can't comment on any others. It has built in dsd upgrading that smooths the sound a slight amount. It has kept me happy and not wanting something else.
There are a lot of daps available now but I haven't heard any of them.

I have several DAP's, but for desktop I use the Aune X5s. But it has no gapless, so eventually I'm looking at the Eversolo DMP-A6... or something else that takes SD cards. Nothing by Topping or SMSL though. Their players add crossfeed to the signal automatically, and undefeatable.

I really like Nightrage, "The Venomous" and "A New Disease Is Born" are up there among my favorite MDM albums, and I've enjoyed their later releases as well. However, the last two singles they released have really bothered me, I need a sanity check from other people. The singles "Euphoria Within Chaos" and "A Throne Of Melancholy" sound like crap to me, as in the production is terrible, to the point that I can't enjoy them fully. It reminds me of the low mp3 quality sound you got from bittorrenting back in the days. I don't know if they went for a more "raw" sound, but it didn't go well IMO. Vocals sound muffled and everything blends together into a porridge in the mix.

How does it sound to you?
