Okay so now I'm running Viper4android, but have no idea how to use or get the best out of it, any tips / pointers? Hardware : Samsung s6 edge plus, SZ2000, oppo HA-2. Thanks! :)

Definitely not afraid to root! All my phones until my current one have been running custom roms so it's nothing new to me :) I'll check it out this weekend! I'm using a Samsung S6 edge +, first non HTC phone. The Battery is starting to get a bit poo so I may pick up an LG v10, or see what next...

This is from inside Spotify on Android? Poweramp @Startreker I purely use mine out and about, so I'll likely never use a hardware equalizer for mine .. My home listening setup is a $15,000 Paradigm speaker setup with a Yamaha amplifier and two Velodyne SPL1200 ultra subwoofers ;)

It's one hell of an amp!! I'm not too fussed about battery life as 8 hours is enough for me, and if I go on a long outing I take a 10,000mah quick charger for my phone and the amp :) I'm running Android, so should I look at installing Viper4android (rooting my phone isn't an issue)?

The amp is an Oppo ha-2,its a dac/amp.. Can a few people share their poweramp / Spotify EQ? I can't see a pre-amp volume in Spotify, maybe I'm missing something? Or is that just the phone volume level. I'm new to EQ'ing :o [/IMG][/IMG][/IMG]

I do, a pair of Yamaha Pro 500's which I can use .. but I don't have a spare amp to hook up for 200 hour burn-in however :-( I guess I will just have to use my Yamaha's without an amp for 10 days? :(

@olddude Thanks! I'm looking forward to being a member ;)   @Pharmaboy   Damn I did the pad swap already, managed to figure it out after watching youtube video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxYxgo_PMVs I don't think I'm going to bother putting back to stock just for the burn-in. Surely...

Any tips for replacing the headphone pads? Never done it before!

Christmas time everyone!!! Jvc SZ2000 Oppo HA-2 DAC/Amp HM5 replacement pads What's the best way to do a 30+ hour break in? :)

Gotta admit, I'm looking forward to EQing some vibrations to the skull :D

DAC/Amp.. Check! Brainwavz MH5 pads.. Check! Now to wait for my SZ2000`s, hopefully within the next week! :D

Is my Oppo HA-2 going to have the grunt to make the sz2000 play well? I sure hope so, it seems pretty grunty from what I can tell but I'm fairly new to dac/amp for headphones

  Thank you , I've ordered a pair of those with free shipping, gives me time to shop around and find the best place to buy the SZ2000's from. I'm already frothing in anticipation

holy **** LOL   A quick question regarding the HM5 pads, is there difference/advantage between these two ?   Angled ones - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Brainwavz-Angled-Memory-Foam-Earpad-Suitable-For-Large-Over-The-Ear-Headphones-/122061626967?hash=item1c6b709e57:g:-B0AAOSwARZXmMG4 Flat ones -...

Thank you!   I'll look into ordering a set, and it seems I'll benefit from replacement pads, the Brainwavz HM5 it seems!  Now, to try and find a place which sells both so  I don't have to fork out for two lots of shipping to New Zealand :-)
