I usually put a bit of tape on the end of my finger and lightly dab at the dent and pull. Works well for me.

If the Low-Latency DAC competes with traditional stand-alone DACs, that will be a game changer. Always been my issue with DAPs, laggy and janky when plugged in as a DAC.

That's kind of the base I'm working with too but I've make some changes with a custom rear cover and front baffle/pad mount. I am seriously impressed with the SQ. I've owned and listened to the standards of mid-fi to mid/high (HD650, HE560, LCD2.1 and 2.2, HD800S, Focal Clear) and these trade...

Here's what I'm working on the last few weeks: A closed pair using Fostex T50RP drivers. Been tricky to tune but getting it to a pretty decent place. And an open pair with the Peerless Tympany 50mm Driver. These sound surprising good after initial build. Finishing up a magnetic pad...

No one is going to have a patent on either a generic planar driver or a traditional round headphone design. Avoid styling the grills with the Audeze A shape and you'll be fine. There are plenty of companies selling "Audeze style" planars. Sash, Verum, Monoprice, Modhouse, etc. As long as you...

Any impression of the drivers you can give? I've got the Peerless 50mm right now going into a project but I'm thinking of grabbing some Aliexpress units over the 11.11 sale.

Well, lucky for you I had both of those back to back. To me, either is as good as the other one. They both have a magical quality. I'm not going to use general audio terms to describe them. I'm just going to say when Norah Jones sings the line "Funny how my favourite shirt smells more like you...

I had the MM's on tour a month or so ago. They were great. The big win over the Mk2 was in the vocals, they were magical..... But after going back to the MEST and "cleansing my palette" for a month I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything.

The Xbox Elite V2 is (IMO) the best feeling/handling controller available but my god is a giant piece of s***. I've replaced both sticks and a shoulder button. I had hoped they learned their lesson after the dumpster fire that was the Elite V1 but apparently not. I really like the weight and...

This Penon Impact is something. Kind of snuck up one me, wasn't on my radar at all and until @Rockwell75 told me how much he liked it I didn't even realize that Penon had a halo tier IEM. It's right there with the Diva and the MM for me.

Received the Campfire kit from @riverground

I've received the Penon Impact from @jdan1457

I'd separate out visual fidelity into two categories, art design and technical prowess. For art design, I think Elden Ring is tops at the moment. The level of detail in every object in the entire world is immaculate. For technical prowess, RE4 Remake is pretty impressive, especially with HDR on...

When mine seemed bricked (Completely black, no button inputs would do anything, USB would connect and disconnect but could not flash or control with ADB), had just about resolved myself that it was toast but I let it sit for a week unplugged and once the battery drained it reset and worked...

Anyone ever see any PW Audio style connectors for sale anywhere? Love the look of their 4.4mm connectors and splitters, wondering if there's a DIY part in the same style.
