I got mine yesterday. I've placed them in my Gustard H10 (vivid, 2 dual and 2 single). Even without burn-in they're amazing. So much better than the stock opamps. I've used the v5s before and (from memory) these are much livelier, smoother, with a larger soundstage.

I'm also a little fed up with MOG's browser app. I stumbled upon Sony music unlimited. It's bitrate is 320 AAC as of January, and it sounds AMAZING! Their prices are similar to MOG ($5 for desktop, $10 for desktop+mobile). They also seem to have an (slightly) bigger selection than MOG, but I...

I bought mine from Newark.com, just b/c I've bought from them before. Price is $30 each, but like I said before probably around $70 for both out the door.    Here's the link:  ...

Update:   I bought another pair of opa627 from newark.com. The chips were more expensive ($70 for two 8pin, out the door price).   After listening to both pairs, one purchased from ebay the other from the above dealer, I have to conclude that the ebay pair is a counterfeit.   While...

Quote: Sorry...Thanks for the clarification.

I just got my 627s in the mail yesterday. They sound WAY better than the 134. Better detail, imaging, attack and low end punch. It sounds like the 134 but with more resolution. The only thing I can say about the 134 is that it sounds a little deeper, but again I think that's a result of the...

I've been using MOG now for a year now using a high-end rig (msII+>rxmkII>jh13) and am very happy with the service.   I tried rhapsody, but their catalog at the time was not completely 320. Spotify uses OGG 320, which at that bitrate sounds horrendous compared to mp3 320. I couldn't stand...

Yes, I saw that thread but the information is very fragmented. The info is spread out over many posts. I was hoping we can have all the info in one place, and maybe compile it into a wiki.

Hi,   I couldn't find such a list anywhere so I wanted to create a resource for people to post android devices that can run USB DAC. So far, I was able to get Nexus 7 tablet to run my Practical Devices XM6, and a cheap-o USB audio plug-and-play device. To do this, I had to:   Buy an OTG...

Background:   The first amp I started out with was the cMoy amp. Connected to my Ipod LOD with a Fiio cable, it sounded pleasing and nonfatiguing, but couldn't get over the fact that it sounded a little more distorted than out of my Ipod headphone out jack. Thinking it was a limitation of my...

Quote: Get the right aftermarket cable and the "muddiness" is eliminated. With Chrishimself's recable, they sound pretty good. While lacking the accuracy of the SM3, I still prefer them - the forward midrange of the SM3s makes for an unnatural soundstage. The tf10s are definitely gives a...

Quote:   To my ears the TF10 sounds pretty flat with no deficit in the midrange. Very natural sounding

Quote: I've used the sm3 almost exclusively for almost a year now. A month ago I went back to the TF10s and found them to be much more to my liking. To me the SM3 mids were too forward, tf10 sounds more open. I'm also using this cable though, which helps open up the sound and clean up the...

Thank you! Very nice guide. I wish it was made earlier; it would've saved me a lot of trouble.

I just got my impressions for some JH13s. I've never been able to get a good seal with universal IEMs. I hope I don't experience the same problems.

Quote: Even though most people will tell you that it's madness, I did something similar. I took shure triple flanges and shoved them on the triple fi. Waste of time, and could have damaged my headphones. The triple flanges designed for it are much better.

I actually bought these cables a few months ago (http://www.ebay.com/itm/OFC-Ultimate-Ears-upgrade-cable-UE-triple-fi-10-SF-3-5-/260947400156?pt=UK_AudioVisualElectronics_HomeAudioHiFi_Headphones&hash=item3cc1ad55dc#ht_2382wt_1026). It created a drastic improvement in sound quality. Basically...

Where's ALO Rx MkII??

I completely agree with everything you said. Personally at $165 the triple fi's represent the best deal in headphones. The removable cable means that it could last you a lifetime. Quote:  

Hey you were right. I tried the comply tips that came with it and it definitely improved the soundstage. Treble sounds more natural as well. These cables aren't even completely burned in and they still sound so much better than the originals (a-b comparision). These are headphones have been...

I've had my SM3 v2s for almost a year now and i've never been completely happy with them. To me the sound was too "dark" and the soundstage was too close. While otherwise very impressive headphones they had such a quick attack speed that the notes never decayed naturally. In contrast the triple...

I've owned the M50 for a very long time and currently own the triple fi. Nothing beats the triplefi at its price range. In terms of sound quality and speed, <200 is a really good price for them. I've upgraded the cable for $35 from ebay and I've noticed an improvement in the treble and bass.  ...

I actually had the e11 for a while. They were very good, but were not neutral. They were too dark sounding, overemphasizing the lower midrange. Soundstage was lacking. Bass boost only emphasized the lower end of the spectrum and caused my M50s to rumble against my ears without making any extra...
