I have been using the CAL!2's for half a year now. I didn't like the sound out of the box too much: mids and highs seemingly absent/drowning in bass. I could only listen to it after EQ'ing. The cable upgrade seemed to have some small positive effects on the SQ, mostly the dynamics seemed...

  Thanks man! The stuff on the volume levels is really weird indeed, the graph that I posted in this thread previously clearly shows that the V10 has more than double the dB as opposed to the Galaxy s7. Its really not scientific the methods that they are using.   In terms of performance, all...

    I don't know about this data, I would be very much be interested in having a look at it. I am just assuming that they are doing their job properly, but if you provide evidence that they don't, I will change my opinion of course :)

I don't think gsmarena's methodology is faulty, just that most of the numbers they aquite dont say that much about audio quality. The OP3 and OP3T perform identical in their test btw

Well, to be quite frank, that video doesnt impress me that much. Some lower noise flour and less stereo crosstalk are just numbers that really dont say much about the actual sound of the system in my experience...unless those numbers would actually be audible. They might tell you something about...

    You must listen quite loud then, or you are using very inefficient transducers. I always felt the bass was quite clean on the OP3. How do you discriminate between the dac and amp section in how they effect the final outputted sound?   Just a friendly reminder that the OP3 is maybe not...

I just wanted to let you guys know that today I received my CAL!2. After some heavy equalizing (+10 dB @ 4 kHz) I have to say: these cans are f'ing awesome. 99 sgd well spend! I also ordered this cable...

The build quality, I have seen pictures of the CAL with a an entire ear cup snapped off.

By the way, anybody from Singapore that perhaps knows a place where these headphones could be purchased and auditioned? That would close the case obviously.

Hey guys,   I am in the middle of my exchange period here in Singapore, and the cable of my RHA 750's just tore. Naturally, I am looking for something to take their place for now, and I figured that a relatively nice pair of cans might even be fun in the future. Anyway, listened to the E-MU...

  At the moment I am abroad for an internship. Will be back in February for a comparison :).     Just to come back at the topic; after the hype, I feel that the OP3 is just an okay sounding device. For everyday use, I feel it just has a tad too much attack, making it that I do not enjoy...

Hey guys,   I have the OP3 A3003 for a few weeks now, coming from a samsung s4 i9505. Let me share my two cents, I use them with the RHA 750's.   Long story short, I am absolutely blown away by the sound quality of this device. At the beginning I thought there was something wrong with the...

Nope, bought the non-i version exactly for this reason, but it didnt matter

Guess what happend to me yesterday? After 2 months the right channel broke down. That's a record.

I got the ma750's since last week and I absolutely love them. At 20eu extra, these destroy the sony ex650's - which I had previously - completely. To my ears these things sound almost perfect. The sound signature seems to be almost flat exept for a tad of extra subbass and an aparent spike in...
