How would this DAC fair against the Emotiva XDA-2?

Thanks John57.  Would a Adam a5x or a4x be a better choice due to the port being in the front.  Also, how do these fair against the focal cms50?

Is the Airmotiv 6 too overwhelming for desktop speakers?  Especially if I sit 6-10 inches away from it?  Would the Airmotiv 5 be a better choice?

Anyone compared the Airmotiv 5 to the Adam A5X since it is similar in size and design?

I just came back from Radio Shack after demo the V M-80.  Like the sound but too uncomfortable for me.   

I am in the same boat.  I tried different tips but don't like that signature at all.  Instead I got the R1 the 2 weeks ago and I been listening to that every since.   

I am newbie so it is kind of difficult for me to explain.  I guess, to me the DT990 sounds a little boring and lack of bass.  I wonder if it is because I don't have a desktop amp.  How is the bass on the HD598?  It is present, forward, or recess?

Any opinions on how the HD598 compares to the DT990 32ohms?  I just purchased the DT990 and it is a comfortable headphone but not too impress with the sound.  I have about 20 hours of burn in on it so maybe that is the case but was wondering if I should get the HD598 or not.

Thanks.  Let me know when it is my turn.

Is the H598 still available?

Did everyone on the list paid the deposit? Anyone dropped out ?

It is possible to update the list to see where I am at the waiting list?  I think there are two person ahead of me.

Quote: Darn, I just purchased a new one from ebay for $225.  Hmm, should have waited.

Hi,   I am interested in this.  Please put my name on the list.

Hi Everyone,   I was wondering what are your opinion between the two IEM?  I would like to have something with a little more bass.  I normally listen to J-POP musical so the detail of the female vocal is important to me.  Thanks in advance.
