Review: Anedio D1 DAC - my new reference DAC
Okay, so I couldn't wait any longer...just sprung for a Bifrost as a stop gap measure. The plan now is to take a much more leisurely decision between the updated D1 and the forthcoming Schiit statement dac. @project86: I very much hope you get the opportunity to review both these...- paultel 2009

Review: Anedio D1 DAC - my new reference DAC
Quote: Couldn't agree more, I'd certainly be a customer. Re the FS board: I'm in the UK and I haven't seen a Euro version up for sale yet. Perhaps when the new version is released....- paultel 2009

Review: Anedio D1 DAC - my new reference DAC
@project86 Hi there. I would probably be able to wait more calmly for the updated Anedio D1 had I not finally made the decision to buy one on the very day that it sold out. As irony would have it, I had been putting off the purchase for some time - as it wasn't urgent and, I...- paultel 2009

Review: Anedio D1 DAC - my new reference DAC
Quote: You might want to look at the Wyred 4 Sound Dac1/Dac2. I've no experience of either, but having done lots of reading whilst trying my best to hang on for the Anedio Mark 2 it would seem a reasonable possibility.- paultel 2009

HifiMAN HE-6 Planar Magnetic Headphone
Quote: x2 on this. I have the sx750 and the sx1250 and don't believe either is a particularly good match with the HE-6 (though they are both better with LCD2 Rev.1). My Marantz 2275 definitely plays nicer than either pioneers, but I still think that there is better synergy to be...- paultel 2009

Review: Anedio D1 DAC - my new reference DAC
Quote: Thanks for the update. Not sure I read it quite as positively as you do. "About a month" could easily be 5-6 weeks. Plus that's just for a "more concrete announcement about the release plan" which doesn't sound like an actual product launch on that date. Still, hope I'm...- paultel 2009

Review: Unique Melody Miracle 6 driver custom IEM
Quote: For me, the Miracles pretty much provide "Goldilocks-style" frequency response. I find the balance that they strike between low, mids and highs to be just right. The bass quantity and quality is superior to the HE-6, to my ears. Any more, would probably be a distraction - so in...- paultel 2009

Review: Unique Melody Miracle 6 driver custom IEM
Quote: Absolutely. I am new to customs and received my miracles a couple of weeks ago. I was all for sending them back until I finally got them seated properly in the ear canal. They sounded just terrible, and I thought I had a dud pair on my hands. Having got them correctly...- paultel 2009

HifiMAN HE-6 Planar Magnetic Headphone
Quote: The HK930 is my preferred weapon of choice with the HE-6, or vice versa. (Much more so than with the LCD2.) Other than the power difference, I find the headphone out to be very much in the same sonic ballpark as using the speaker taps - and definitely more convenient. ...- paultel 2009
