THE WATERCOOLER HEADPHONE EDITION – Headphones, Amps, DACs, and desktop/home audio related – a freewheeling discussion of gear, impressions, music, and musings.
Sonos has finally anounced their rumoured headphone Ace. Wonder how it compares to Hifi headphones. Especially considering the use cases they have presented it for.- hAbIrAbI

I heard both the Immanis and Aperio at Word of Headphones and IMHO the Aperio had better bass impact. At least within the context of the noisy surroundings and the equipment available there.- hAbIrAbI

Great impressions. Wish you had a chance to listen to the Aperio. Just as a comparison with the HE-1 and Immanis. I think they were located close to the Raal booth if I recall their booth number correctly.- hAbIrAbI

I read the proposal and that's not what it says. "Such as" should mean that these are only meant as examples not as the conclusive list of devices covered by the directive. https://data.consilium.europa.eu/doc/document/ST-10713-2022-INIT/x/pdf Update: Just finished reading the document and...- hAbIrAbI

You are correct. It only applies to radio equipment. The DAC is not radio equipment. But the 2Go is and therefore it will require an update next year.- hAbIrAbI

I would hope they would be working at least on a Mk2 since I think the EU regulation regarding charging ports would also apply to DACs and amps. https://www.dxomark.com/eu-device-charging-legislations/#:~:text=As%20a%20result%2C%20all%20new,keep%20using%20the%20old%20one.- hAbIrAbI

I don't use the Tsuranagi with headphones and I don't own any Meze headphones. Shouldn't be a problem with my He1000SE. Don't think it can drive my 1266.- hAbIrAbI

If there was I'm pretty sure there is a lot of people waiting for one to appear. As long as cost doesn't get ridiculous. I'd take one of the LEs for retail price right now if they weren't damaged. I think the latest from CJ SG was that they will try for a Q3 release but considering the delays...- hAbIrAbI

Lavricables - Impressions & Discussion Thread
Any opinions on the aestethical difference between Baltic grey and transparent? I have the choice to either get baltic grey now or wait a month for the transparent Grand line cable. My tendency is to wait for transparent but maybe the baltic grey version looks really great in person.- hAbIrAbI
