    Yes, I hope the same. I’ve done a number of kilobuck IEMs in the past but this is my first in the stratosphere. I can’t speak to how it compares to your Sony, but in a vacuum the Q15 is really impressing me. With IEMs it’s on par with my K9, if that tells you anything. For me it’s an upgrade...

    Starting off my 2024 with a big upgrade. Just picked up a universal pair of the Radon 6 and the new FiiO Q15. Loving them so far.

    FIIO Q15 DAC and Headphone Amplifier Discussion & Impressions Thread

    Anyone having issues connecting to an iPhone via USB? I’ve tried a number of cables, phone mode is on, and I’ve tried both USB modes. No luck. USB connection works to a Mac however.

    FIIO Q15 DAC and Headphone Amplifier Discussion & Impressions Thread

    FIIO Q15 DAC and Headphone Amplifier Discussion & Impressions Thread

    Audio is the realization that my preference isn’t exactly truthful/neutral. I like a good U shape. Non audio is making mental health a priority. Growing up that just wasn’t a thing. “Cheer up.”

    Just want to say hi for the first time to the Watercooler. I’ve been reading for a while now but never chimed in. My name is (not THE, but another) Jeff. Been in this hobby since before there were many options and I was into IEMs when I first started (very few options). Reading through this...

    Feeling lucky? A tour of our audiophile factory awaits

    Hey Sennheiser, thanks for the opportunity. I'm a USA resident. If I had to choose only one album, it would be the score to God of War Ragnarok, by Bear McCreary. I don't mean to get sappy, but it's a meaningful choice to me. I suffer from severe depression and for those who don't know its...
