VSonic GR07 Bass Edition Impressions
I use my BEs with my AK100 with all FLAC almost exclusively now that I have it. That said, before I had one I primarily listened from my Android phone using Poweramp with V0 MP3s. There is definitely a noticeable difference between the two, but I thoroughly enjoyed listening to my lossy...- shinwa

GR07 - Tips Thread
I ordered them from B&H here. I recently tried out the tips that came with a Samsung Galaxy S4's headphones on my GR07s and they are providing a much nicer sound than I was able to get with anything else so far. The Samsung tips have a much larger diameter opening at the end compared to the...- shinwa

GR07 - Tips Thread
Have you tried using any of the larger tips that were supplied? Outside of the stock tips that come with the headphones, I have found the Sony 'hybrids' to work the best for me. The rubber that makes up the outside tip is slightly thinner and therefore conforms to the shape of your ear canal...- shinwa

VSonic GR07 Bass Edition Impressions
There is a thread dedicated to people's reviews and experiences with various tips on the GR07s. There's a lot of good information in there. http://www.head-fi.org/t/579151/gr07-tips-thread- shinwa

It was really more of a preemptive request, in case LMUE came back stating that the colored tips were not included I would potentially already have the information needed to order what I wanted. I like being prepared. :)- shinwa

VSonic GR07 Bass Edition Impressions
Well that's unfortunate. I recently placed and order for them with LMUE as well, but didn't hear anything from them about the tips. I realize that the color of the tips isn't going to change the sound quality, but I really liked the way the colors looked. Anyone know of a place that...- shinwa

The New iRiver/Astell & Kern AK100: A High-End DAP
Thanks for that! Apparently the search function doesn't work very well over here. When searching for 'AK100' in the For Sale forums, it did not return this posting.- shinwa

The New iRiver/Astell & Kern AK100: A High-End DAP
Has anyone paired the AK100 MKI with the Vsonic GR07's? The impedance of them is 50ohm, so technically it should work well with the 22ohm output, but I've read that there is a recommendation that headphones should really be at least >70ohm when used with the AK100. Any good experiences...- shinwa
