[FiiO BTR15/BTR5 2021/BTR5]Bluetooth DAC and Headphone Amplifier Discussion & Impressions Thread
I have been using the BTR5 for about 2 years and its been great from the start. However a few days ago I noticed that the volume of sound differs depending on what device it is connected to. So for instance, if I connect the BTR5 to my Samsung tablet and play music at a given volume, it will be...- Sioban

Fostex TH900 Impressions & Discussion Thread
Forgot to update the thread regarding my experience: The deal on amazon.de which pops up now and again, is probably a scam. I tried to buy the headphones. After the order was placed, the sum of money was reserved on my credit card. However the purchase never went through. My money was refunded...- Sioban

Fostex TH900 Impressions & Discussion Thread
Went ahead and ordered a unit from Amazon for approx 500 EURO. Probably getting scammed... How much the headphone is made of plastic? Are the headphone sliders made of metal?- Sioban

Fostex TH900 Impressions & Discussion Thread
I might sound like a country cousin for even contemplating these deals on the TH900 from amazon: Is this legit? It is listed as used but says "brandneue produkte", "brandnew product"- Sioban

[FiiO BTR15/BTR5 2021/BTR5]Bluetooth DAC and Headphone Amplifier Discussion & Impressions Thread
Received my unit. My initial reaction is that the range is not great compared to cheap BT-earbuds from Anker or the Sony MDR-1000X. I live in a house with two floors. The BTR5 is paired to my Laptop which is placed on the second floor. The transmission of sound gets interrupted when I am in my...- Sioban

[FiiO BTR15/BTR5 2021/BTR5]Bluetooth DAC and Headphone Amplifier Discussion & Impressions Thread
Started to feel worried that I am going to ruin my 3,5 mm audio out on my new laptop by accidentally bumping my hand into the male connector from time to time. So I just bought the BTR5 from https://www.fiio.eu/ Do any of you guys know if that site is legit? Are there any better deals to be...- Sioban

Burson Conductor - DAC/amp successor to the HA-160D
I have now used the Conductor for a couple of weeks. Something that irritates me is that I often get static noise from time to time whenever I start to play music after having paused it for a while. Does anyone know why this keeps happening? Then there is this clicking noise when you...- Sioban

Best headphone/amp-dac setup for EDM. Budget: around US$4000
OK. Even though the Ultrasones are OK in the bass department and provides good highs, I want to go to the next step. I want the bass to be more present whilst being able to provide clarity. Keep in mind that I have only used the Ultrasones with the Matrix mini so they might not have...- Sioban

Best headphone/amp-dac setup for EDM. Budget: around US$4000
Hello At the moment I have a Matrix mini amp/dac connected to my laptop. I mainly use a pair of Ultrasone 900 headphones. I want to change my setup altogether or at least the amp-dac part. As far as the headphones concerns, I prefer closed cans. Most of the time I listen to EDM. ...- Sioban

Burson Conductor - DAC/amp successor to the HA-160D
Ok, so there is no standby button? It's just on/off through a main switch in the back? Would this risk the life of the amp? I am guessing that turning the amp on and off through a power switch puts more strain on the Conductor compared to a standby button? Am I wrong?- Sioban
