    That would be awesome. I generally use my headphones after my family goes to bed, so I'd prefer closed headphones or ones that leaks very little.

    How are they in terms of sound leak?

    Reviews + impressions thread: Final Audio Design Pandora Hope VI (interesting dynamic + BA full size headphones)

    Sorry, it took me ages to actually read the thread and not just read the email digest.... I auditioned both IV and VI side to side for hours before I bought the VI. They have a similar tuning, but they don't sound the same. VI has a lot more grounded, full bodied sound. Sounds stage is slightly...

    Would you consider sending these to Australia? I'm interested.

    I don't think the "hollowness" is due to build quality, but more about the material. IV's main cup frame is made of plastic, where VI is solid stainless steel. The higher density serves to stabilise the sound better.

    Yulong Aquila III

    You can contact him on his website. Darko.audio then go to the FAQ page and scroll down to the bottom to find the inquiries. Leave a message about your intent and your contact details, and he will probably let you know if he's got the time for it or not? He's usually pretty good at responding to...

    How about Darko? He was pretty impressed with the Aquila 2.

    Yulong Aquila III

    I've been looking too, but it only seems to ever hit the same youtube one that only really talks about the DAC section.

    General YuLong Thread (DAART Aquila / DA10 etc...)

    Anyone had any experience with the Aquila III? Looks really good on paper and I generally like most DACs using AKM chips.

    Comment by 'KSB1978' in item 'YULONG Aquila III'

    I'd love to hear personal reviews of this piece of gear. I haven't really seen any yet. I do love the AKM DACs, and also Yulong's gears. Would be very keen to see how well this performs.

    Introducing HIFIMAN EF600--Desktop DAC/AMP Featuring HYMALAYA Pro Modules

    I was actually looking for a HPA that's reasonably priced, capable of both balanced and SE, with an AKM DAC, but the power output from this thing and my positive experience with EF400 in the past has me keeping my eyes open. Looking forward to some user reviews.

    YULONG DA10 Reference All-in-One

    I wanted a DA10 but you can't seem to get them any more... DA11 has ESS DAC. I like the AKM sound better. :(

    I really want a DA10 but it's hard to come by any more. The updated one has a ESS Sabre DAC chip and I don't like that...

    My "subjective" experience with AKM vs ESS DAC chip "sound signature".

    While many people absolutely believe in measurements, I believe humans are able to perceive some extremely subtle differences. We also don't know what exactly makes up things like "soundstage". There's been a heap of studies trying to get at the measurements and it's been linked that treble...

    Sennheiser history with images?

    Obviously very rare... Can't even find any info on them! Took me whole 2 days to find anything remotely like it! I think I bought mine in 1999. In Australia.
