Agreed. To me the best pop filters are easily poly-sinc-gauss-short and poly-sinc-xtr-short-mp. I swap between the two of them.

Fast shipping, truly excellent and safe packaging for transit. Item exactly as described and prompt communicator.

Anyone ever heard of this DSD converter? http://www.rtaudiodesign.com/w/products/dacs/pure-dsd-converter/ Seems to have been around since 2016 or so.

Qobuz is integrated into HQP Client so try that.

If anyone has a lead on a DSC2 DAC, please PM me. I'm very interested in acquiring one but have never seen one actually for sale. I'm not a DIYer so that's not an option.

Try a trial of the Accurate Sounds convolution filter if you use playback software that is compatible. I think it should solve your issues. https://accuratesound.ca/product/sennheiser-hd800-filterset/

I would also love to hear a DSC DAC but would need to commission one. Haven’t known of anyone to do them.

Is there a image of NAA 5 that works with Pi3? I had an old Audio Alchemy DMP-1 with massively overkill LPS sitting in a closet that works with Roon and I assumed was Pi based and finally decided to crack it open a few days ago and yup, Pi3b. No NAA image I tried worked but then I found...

I'd try the be2 suedes again with the solid mesh if you have it available.

I added a M.2 SSD and new PCI network card to my Linux HQP Embedded machine and it looks like my key reverted to trial. Does that change the fingerprint? I tried re-uploading my license file and still on trial. How can I get it updated?

An off the beaten path that I think hit the mark is a JAR600 or JAR650. These are modded Sennheiser headphones you'd have to find used for around $500-600 or commission one from JAR. Look for a B version as they sound far more open than the earlier A revision. They punch far beyond their...

I hate to break it to you, but Zach does have ACs made from Macassar Ebony. It's my favorite ZMF wood and have one (and an AO in the same wood) and it's glorious sounding. If you hate your wallet ask if he has one in the shop.

Is there a semi-perforated (solid inner wall, perforated outer) Bokeh pad? Or is that all Bokeh pads? And there doesn't seem to be a Lambskin version? Now I'm confused!

@zach915m Any thoughts on Be2 or Verite pads with the Caldera pad perforation pattern (solid inner walls)? I like what the solid Be2 lambskin pads did and I'm an overall adherent of thinnest pads on ZMFs, but there is a loss of space with them. I'm wondering what Verite pads with solid inner...

Try Gauss1 or TPDF dithers and cycle through a lot of the filters. I'd try poly-sinc-gauss-long, poly-sinc-ext2, poly-sinc-ext3, poly-sinc-gauss-xla, and sinc-MGa to start with. Then there are also shorter filters you should try, and if you listen to a lot of pop, rock, or EDM you should also...

I don't know how I have missed for years that HQP Embedded can be installed on Ubuntu? I've been using Desktop but having a upnp renderer would be great.

If you are going to spend 50k, please source an HE90, not a HE1.

I'm glad someone else has tried my favorite Atrium pads! I concur with your assessment that it is more reference tuning sounding and a smaller headstage and compressed layering (which I've never prioritized with headphones). But I'll also add the imaging and resolve is better and that's a...

For those who already like the Be2 pads, I HIGHLY suggest reaching out to Zach to see if he has anymore of the b-stock Verite lambskin ultra perforated pads. As far as I understand it was a production run error (or experiment) and he didn't really like the pads on any of the headphones. But I...

I know it's an "old" filter now, but I keep going back to poly-sinc-ext2 after experimenting with newer released filters. Maybe it's just a well worn in shoe but after being smitten by the NA sinc-medium for a bit I'm back to poly-sinc-ext2.

If we airplay from an iOS device, HI-Player only receives 256 AAC because of Airplay 2 restrictions, right? There's no way to feed HI-Player lossless airplay at the moment, right?

Excellent, trusted seller. Fast communication, packed item with care and concern and shipped quickly and as promised.

If I had a "complaint" about the CA-1a, it's that it can be prone to sounding a bit brittle or dry. It's not a major compliant as I thought with the filters it's the best headphone currently manufactured (but not better than some vintage headphones and the modded JAR800). Is there a noticeable...

Me too, with a little twist

Prompt and double packed shipment. Friendly and good communicator. Item as promised. Recommended seller.
