The Hifiman RE2000 - a high end dynamic IEM
Yes, they are very good for 200$ if they are legit and not broken in any way. I still use mine from time to time, the material slowly degrade, I repaired them a few times and now one of the ear buds has a lower volume but I think I have to clean the nozzles. As a comparison, they should be one...- LightBlue77

Denon AH-D9200 - 2018 Flagship - Impressions Thread
i have TH909, don't think it's mk2, probably the same size tough and D9200 which i think it's has drivers a bit smaller in diameter.- LightBlue77

Final A8000 Beryllium Diaphragm Dynamic IEM Comments and Impressions
Of course it's subjective but different, balanced and more powerful doesn't mean better sound quality, even if in theory balanced should mean cleaner signal than single ended. In practice, there are too many things changing the result, the quality of all have too really match, not only on paper...- LightBlue77

Final A8000 Beryllium Diaphragm Dynamic IEM Comments and Impressions
Hi, about single ended vs balanced, i rarely, if ever heard any difference in terms of sound quality, of course balanced outputs are more powerful. it's kind of debatable if balanced output makes ay difference, there are too many variables in the audio chain, from recording to audio devices...- LightBlue77

FiiO M15 Audio Player | Dual AK4499EQ | 7490 mAh Battery | 64 GB ROM | $1299.99
Any hopes apple music will ever work with M15? It has some issues on my smartphone too, one plus 7 pro, if I choose high bit rates, it gives some errors. Edit: i take this back, one plus 7 pro is able to play hi res lossless tracks, i guess the latest updates fixed it. I'll try tomorrow to...- LightBlue77

Denon AH-D9200 - 2018 Flagship - Impressions Thread
What AMP do you use with the D9200? I am using a PC as a source (Asus Xonar D2X), would see benefits in adding a DAC? i use it with Fiio M15 and tried it with Topping A90, couldn't hear any difference in terms of quality even if the DAC is matrix x-sabre pro mqa which is obviously superior...- LightBlue77

Denon AH-D9200 - 2018 Flagship - Impressions Thread
Hi, recently both a pair of D9200. I like them, seems easy enough driven by fiio M15 and sounds very well. Not sure if it is suitable for portable use as it doesn't isolate in noisy environment. Has anyone compared it to audeze lcd-xc? Shouldn't be much different in terms of overall quality...- LightBlue77

The Hifiman RE2000 - a high end dynamic IEM
I'm also selling mine because I have final audio a8000. But not in a hurry because I did this recently: plugged re2000 into topping a90 connected to matrix x-sabre pro mqa. Then boom! The sound was something else! The iems are normally for portables, this combo took re2000 to a new level, i...- LightBlue77
