Official Sony WF-1000XM3 Thread - Noise Cancelling True Wireless Earphones
They were almost interesting. Not supporting apt-x and ldac at that price point (and size of unit) turns me off.- Cirkustanz

Massdrop x THX AAA™ 789 Linear Amplifier - Impressions Thread
To confirm, the message about the may purchases shipping in august was a mistake. They later corrected the message to that, since they are currently planned to ship in september.- Cirkustanz

Massdrop x THX AAA™ 789 Linear Amplifier - Impressions Thread
Right. To be clear, just because your estimated ship date on the massdrop site says August 30th, doesn't mean that is current. As I'm sure most people in this thread would agree, MD doesn't really make it very clear (other than the email) about the delay in shipment. Maybe I'm dumb. Maybe...- Cirkustanz

Massdrop x THX AAA™ 789 Linear Amplifier - Impressions Thread
Yeah, funny thing is...I have access to one right now. Someone I know bought one in a prior drop and a few weeks later they got relocated. He's borrowing some portable gear from me that he needs since he's in temporary housing for a while, and I'm borrowing his amp. Here's to hoping the...- Cirkustanz

Massdrop x THX AAA™ 789 Linear Amplifier - Impressions Thread
I'm so getting tired of waiting. I got in on the May drop, so waiting a month just to see the email that it will be delayed another month sucked. I'm expecting it to be delayed again, from what I read from previous posts. I really hate massdrop, and this will be the last purchase I make from...- Cirkustanz

Budget DAP vs modern smartphone?
Looks interesting. It's not for me though, my phone (a nexus 5x) is really getting old, and the usbc port is starting to wear out. Most of the time a cable plugged into it doesn't charge/connect. (have tried multiple cables, including the original cable that I have never used) My phone is on...- Cirkustanz

Minneapolis meet 2019
I have the same thought with a set of monoprice m1060's, revision 2 (with the better cables, etc). Never really liked them, but never got around to selling them when they were still hot. I have barely used them, maybe 10 hours of play at most excellent condition. I even have the insanely...- Cirkustanz

Schitt Jotunheim or other comparable options?
I decided to jump on the massdrop thx aaa 789 bandwagon and placed an order for one earlier today. It's a bit more than I was anticipating on spending, but I'm selling a bunch of gear that I have not used in a long time, which should cover a nice dac and probably even a new desk, which is long...- Cirkustanz

Schitt Jotunheim or other comparable options?
I'm kinda leaning towards joining the thousands of people waiting for massdrop to get the 789's back in stock...and shop for a DAC. It's going to sound crazy, but if I ever wanted to move the headphone station into the living room, I can do that more easily with a DAC that has an optical in...- Cirkustanz

Schitt Jotunheim or other comparable options?
Hello party people, I've been away from the headphone game for a while, but am jumping back into the world. Something I've been meaning to do but have not yet, is purchase a good dac/amp for home use. Currently my source is 100% my desktop PC. On the desk I have been using a monoprice 11567...- Cirkustanz

Hmm, this is tempting...and at the right time also, since I've decided to finally get around to shopping for a real dac/amp. Probably won't make it though, it's a bit of an awkward commute from uptown.- Cirkustanz

Minneapolis 2018 Summer meetup?
Hello party people... I'm curious if anyone would be interest in a Minneapolis meetup. Personally, I've been trying to find someone local who has a pair of Fiio FH1 or Ibasso IT01's to demo for me, without much luck!- Cirkustanz

Minneapolis Meet?
I missed the needle doctor day unfortunately! Does anyone live near uptown (We could meet up at spyhouse or somewhere) that would be willing to let me demo a nice dac/amp combo such as a Jotunheim or something comparable? I'd like to be able to listen to one for a bit to see if it is worth...- Cirkustanz

Monoprice Monolith M1060 and M560 Planar Headphones
I have the 11567 dac/amp, that I refer to as "The monoprice brick of blah" and it powers the m1060 just fine. I really don't want to play it any louder than with the knob at about the 9:00 position on low gain with most music...although maybe with really quiet stuff such as classical I would...- Cirkustanz

Monoprice Monolith M1060 and M560 Planar Headphones
With DT990's, I have the band set to as big as I can get and they are comfortable. I could probably click them one notch smaller and be fine. With the 1060's, I have them at the biggest I can get, and I feel like I want one more notch. It's fine though, not too bad. Your mileage may...- Cirkustanz

Guys, I seriously have to call shenanigans on the thought of an oil doing anything at all to mitigate the chance of the oil cracking.

Monoprice Monolith M1060 and M560 Planar Headphones

The 18th doesn't work for me as I have a tattoo removal appointment. The other two days work well but I would be more excited about the 11th. Supposed to receive some new cans on the 4th, lol!- Cirkustanz

Monoprice Monolith M1060 and M560 Planar Headphones
I'm no expert (especially since I don't have any of the products) but my opinion is that the Jotumheim is worth it. It seems like it's literally the last amp/dac a person would ever need. The magni/modi is great, and very well reviewed...but if you ever have upgrade-itis, you might be...- Cirkustanz
