ER2XR seems great from what I've read but I'm looking for any other IEMs that would be "better" around that price tag, especially regarding soundstage which is said to be totally 2D for the Etys ER2. Any recommendation?

Could anyone say whether the E4000 would be a significant step up from a Visang R03 (Brainwavz M2)? I've got the latter since a while now and am pretty satisfied with it (considering the price tag) but I'm wondering if buying the E4000 would be really worth the price (3 times the R03). I'd be...

I'm interested in having the 2014 version for the DI V3 as I'm not using foobar and don't find a good wasapi plugin for my player.   I hope they are going to release their new driver "special DI V3" soon!

Apart from driver changes, what can be expected from firmware 7 VS previous firmware versions?   Regards   Quote:   Kingwa (or whoever who may know).

You have to ask for it when you place the order. You'll have the I2S output at the back of the DI, which you can use to connect the DI to your I2S input at the back of a Ref7.1 or something like that. Apparently, you can also have I2S input for the DI.

I didn't tried PSU vs no PSU on the V3, but it was a nice improvement for my V1, worth the upgrade considering the price.

  Are you using KS for playback? If yes, try to apply this procedure (go down to Driver V1.22 Install guide): http://www.audio-gd.com/Pro/dac/USB32/USB32EN.htm   ASIO4ALL + ASIO plugin for your media player should do the trick I suppose.

If I get ir right, the firmware #4 makes the DI-V3 run in asynch mode while the #5 doesn't? So #4 should be better as asynch is theoritically better, right?

Just as a piece of information, for any who wish to use it with Winamp like I do (I'm used to it, you can go bit perfect with it like foobar, and I never found any difference in ABX tests between foobar and winamp using wasapi on both):   adionSoft WASAPI plugin: doesn't work (V1 did)...

DI-V3S just received.     I switched connectors inside the DI to have current technolgy going through RCA instead of BNC. This was not that easy as Audio-gd put some glue on the connectors to prevent them from unplugging during transport, but I managed to switch them.   As far as I...

Quote:   That's pretty good news actually! Bang for the bucks again from audio-gd then.

Quote:   Indeed, you guys will have 5% off like SleepyOne and myself had.

I managed to place my order on time for the V3, before audio-gd closing for 2 weeks. I'll compare it to V1 and post commnents when I receive it.

Quote:   Ok, I didn't understand that you already have a V2. Let's wait some people who did the V2 -> V3 upgrade path give their opinion then.
