Meze 99 Neo Pre-Launch Worldwide Review Tour - Registrations Closed
One thing to add: On Meze booth the phon3es were attached only to Ipads directly. I would not consider this too much of a letdown. Still I would like to try with my decent DACs. So no biggie especially when considering that I have experienced annoying flaws with other exhibitors (not working or...- HondoMUC

Meze 99 Neo Pre-Launch Worldwide Review Tour - Registrations Closed
I had a very brief listening session at Munich High End Show. I am pleased so far. But I would like to deep dive into it at home to get a better impression (a noisy crowdy place does not make a good listening experience). So I was wondering where the European Tour unit is right now? I'm on...- HondoMUC

Overwhelmed - Cheap IEM under $30 or so?
+1 for Soundmagic. Served me well for years. 100 $ < will do a lot better in SQ of course. Mine came without foam when I recall correctly.- HondoMUC

Bicycle-Fi!
You have to end up completely broke when your passions are audio and bike :o2smile: My bikes: BMC fourstroke (love it, brought me transalp), Giant Defy for the road and an old Peugeot Racer (singlespeed) for commuting in the city.- HondoMUC

What's wrong with this chain?
Thanks guys. It's def. the cables. I use some cordial and everything is fine. Maybe the Atlas are a tad better sonically, like silky, but totally fine now.- HondoMUC

What's wrong with this chain?
Thanks, I was somehow expecting that. It must have been a noob decision. I read about the cables being good and had them off ebay not knowing about the purpose :-) I will get some decent analogue RCAs. Still, with one rca cable I have lying around (low quality) the STAX isn't loud either.- HondoMUC

iFi iPurifier 2 - Reviews, Impressions and Discussion Thread
Hi all, also the iPurifier is rock-solid, I do not trust it beeing directly hooked to USB B port of my Fostex HP A4. It's in there a bit crooked and might push the connectors when moved. Is there a good, small USB B extension cable? The cable going in the iPurifier is a o,5m Supra USB B cable...- HondoMUC
