    Burson V6 Vivid and V6 Classic Discrete Audio Opamps Discussion and Reviews

    I use V5 and V5i in my headphone amplifiers, love both opamps. Curios with V6 especially the Classic "The V6 Classic deviates further from its V5 foundation. With an entirely different output stage design, it is intimate, exquisite and very engaging" regerds ~ron~

    500 to 1000 USD Portable headphones recommendation needed

    Beyerdynamic T51p if you like smooth sound Sennheiser Amperior, more open , slightly wider soundstage than T51p    I have booth, use for travelling only. But now I'm very happy with IEM Etymotic ER4SR, leave portable headphones at home. ER4SR better in sound quality, isolation, etc.   ~ron~

    iPhone 6s Sound Quality

      Yes, Install Flac player+ (or other flac players)  in your 6S, connect to your laptop and open iTunes. In iTunes , under Application you can find Flac player+ that you install, copy FLAC files from your computer drive to Flac player share drive.   I prefer stay in FLAC not ALAC
