Reply to review by 'tvrboy' on item 'ZMFheadphones BOKEH'
Great review and photos! When can I subscribe to your glossy, art-house headphone magazine? Honestly, you're a better writer than most professional audio reviewers (not a difficult task).- tvrboy

HEDD Audio HEDDphone TWO - Now Available for Pre-Order with Special Pre-Order Bonus
That's a good question. I would say the lack of excitement is in large part due to Hedd's product design and marketing decisions. Just to set context, I own a HP2, pre-ordered from headphones.com as soon as it was released, and you can see my review earlier in the thread. I think that although...- tvrboy

HEDD Audio HEDDphone TWO - Now Available for Pre-Order with Special Pre-Order Bonus
Totally agree on both points. Since getting my HP2 I've had many hours-long listening sessions and found the headband to be very comfortable. It is a little heavy but the pressure is evenly distributed. The HP2 also has great build quality and comes with everything you need in terms of...- tvrboy

KZ Official Thread
Just ordered while co-workers discuss the weather in a virtual meeting. Looking forward to trying this out! I can't believe you can get a hybrid IEM for less than $20 now.- tvrboy

Impressions | aune AR5000 Full-Size Open Headphones with MLD Driver
Nice video and I'm glad to see companies introducing affordable headphones instead of $5000 flagships. A few questions: It was mentioned that the headband is patent pending. Can you go into more detail on the function of the headband and how it's different than off-the-shelf options? Composite...- tvrboy

DSP-enabled, MOONDROP MAY is dropped!
Just got my May ... unfortunately I have to say this is the first headphone I've ever bought that I need to return. The main reason being, the ear tips are so small I cannot get them onto the nozzle, even after trying some maneuvers with paper clips. They were clearly made for some other product...- tvrboy

Burson Soloist 3X GT Headphone amp - US Tour
Thank you very much to Burson Audio for allowing community members to experience this awesome product! Here are my impressions: Intro My interest in the Burson Soloist started off with a question: how much better can it get? How much better than a pile of Schiit, that is. During the last...- tvrboy

ZMF BOKEH - Closed Back (Semi-Portable)
Ordered for my office system! Time to make co-workers jealous. I'll say it's "limited edition 1/250" which is technically true.- tvrboy

Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up
I'm not using any EQ and crossfeed feature on the Burson is off. Although both DAC and amp are balanced I lack the interconnect cables so I'm just using single ended outputs / inputs.- tvrboy

Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up
I'd like to ask the Schiit experts in this thread for advice about a vexing issue with my Schiit: I have some sort of weird incompatibility between a new amplifier (Burson Soloist 3X GT) and my Gungnir multibit. Whenever I use the two together there is low-level bass distortion. The issue is...- tvrboy

ZMF Caldera - New Planar Magnetic from ZMF!
Haha the end game posts are truly annoying. Everyone thinks they reached endgame because they bought two $300 headphones and kept the one they liked better. It's like if someone test drove a Corolla and Civic, bought the Civic, and then posted on r/cars "hey bois I've found my car endgame, Civic...- tvrboy

Schiit Midgard - Impressions Thread
Sorry for the late reply, just like to close the loop if someone asks me a question. In terms of power only the Midgard may be "end game" in the sense that it can power any headphone except some super high end planars. In terms of sound quality, definitely not even close to what the best...- tvrboy

Schiit Midgard - Impressions Thread
Do you have an amplifier that you are satisfied with already? If yes, I'd stick with that. Without the Halo output, Midgard is just like a really really really good Magni in my opinion. Magni+++ if you prefer. If no, the Midgard would be the perfect starter amp using single-ended output. It's...- tvrboy
