Hello there, I currently have a Pioneer XDP300r and I’ve been using it with a Sony WX1000 noise cancelling earphones as I take trains and planes a lot. I’ve been thinking of getting a decent pair of IEMs to utilize the balanced output and squeeze out more sound quality out of my player. The...

Hello there, I wanted to ask if AK70 mk2 is going to deliver a better sound quality thank Pioneer XDP300r? I like the Puoneer but I feel something is lacking there, especially when I listen to old classic rock music (Zeppelin, for instance) I’m also planning to get new IEM’s but that’s...

Hello all, I will split this post into two parts. One's got questions about some settings the function of which I'm not quite clear about; the other one has... well, some more general questions. I would be very appreciative of all help and each and every answer. Thanks Questions about the...

Hello there. On my last trip to Japan I picked up the Pioneer XDP300R and I'm just getting to know it... However, I'm in Shanghai right now and I noticed that there is a sale on Sony ZX300 (the player I was initially looking at) I know that the Sony supports LDAC, which is useful for wireless...

Howdy, I've searched and searched but Uncle Google couldn't answer the question. Would you say that noise-canceling (not noise-isolating) ear buds are worth buying over noise-cancelling headphones? All I can find online is the difference between noise-isolating earbuds and noise-cancelling...

Hello there, I'm just a newbie and I don't have a whole lot of experience with modern DAPs. I used to have a HiFiMan 603 and a Fiio X5 (which I really didn't like) Now I've come to a point where I'd like to invest some money into a good music player. Here are my options: 1) Second-hand Onkyo...

  Dear Users, I'm facing a bit of a dilemma here. I'd like to pick one of these headphones: Momentum 2.0, or PSB M4U 1S. One more possibility is Oppo PM3. Which one would you recommend? I know that PM3 are considered by many to be absolutely superb... PSBs have great reviews too. Your...

Dear Users,   Which of these two headphones would you choose and why?   1) Sennheiser Momentum 2.0 (around ear) 2) Oppo PM-3   Thanks!

Dear all,   I'm heading to Hong Kong tomorrow to buy some electronics. I'd like to buy new headphones for my Hifiman 603... Wich of the three would be the best choice for classic rock and blues/jazz/acoustic?   Thanks

Dear Users!   I'm looking for a new pair of headphones... I'm coming from Shure 440 (sold already) and I'll be using the new headphones with my HiFiman 603. I'm looking at Bose QC25 or Sony MDR-1A. While it's not a problem here to check the Bose, finding MDR-1A isn't that easy. Which one would...

Hello there, I own a HiFiMan603. Do you think getting Sony MDR-1A is a wise choice for that player? Thanks

Dear Users!   I've pulled the trigger on HiFiMan 603 and I have to say that after suffering from a major disappointment with FiiO X3ii I'm finally able to enjoy music without having a hole in my wallet.    I need your advice regarding a purchase of a decent pair of reasonably-priced...

Dear Users, I'd like to seek your advice on the choice of headphones for my HiFiman 603...   Right now I'm using Sound Magic earphones/buds(?) I was wondering if AKG 450/451/452 would be an upgrade. I was also considering getting something with noise cancellation system (Bose?) Not sure...

Dear Users,   Can someone tell me what's the difference between those two models? HiFiMan 601 and HiFiMan 603? I haven't been able to find much on those.   Thanks!

Dear Users,   So my Fiio X3 arrived and I had pretty big expectations about its sound quality... Moving from my iPod classic (which I really liked for its simplicity and interface) made me hungry for something that would bring new musical experience to my years... And yet... I feel that this...

Hello there, I was almost ready to get HiFiMan 603 but things got a bit complicated as I started reading more. Which of these would you say is the best choice? HiFiMan 603, Hidizs AP100, iBasso DX50 or Fiio X3? I'm selling my iPod Classic and moving to a better world. Any comments highly...

Dear Users! I'm about to pull the trigger on HiFiMan 603 but what bothers me a lot is that the specs say that the biggest card you can slide in is 32GB. Yet, one of the users here was kind enough to suggest that it is possible to format a 64GB card in such a way that 603 will be able to see it...

Dear Users, I've sold my Ipod Classic and I'd like to get a nice DAP that won't leave a big hole in my wallet. Right now I'm considering getting either Fiio X3 2nd gen. or HiFiMan 603. The latter is cheaper than the former. What I don't like about it is that it doesn't accommodate SD cards...

Howdy,   As far as I know, Grado SR60/80 are great headphones for blues and classic rock. The problem is that they are open cans... Could you recommend something that would sound great for that kind of music and be closed at the same time?   I'm leaning towards Audio-Technica M50.   Thanks

Hello again,   OK, I've narrowed down my choice (and I hope it's the right selection) to the following headphones:   Audio-Technica M30 Audio-Technica M40 Audio-Technica M50 Denon AH-NC800 Bayerdynamic Custom One Pro   1) My first question is - will they run well with my iPod Classic...

Dear All,   I use AKG K420 with my iPod Classic and I'd like to go for something better. I've been browsing the Internet and at first I was pretty much sure that the Audio Technica M50 would be the right choice but then I've found other opinions saying the M50 is not the best choice at all...

Dear All,   I'm a newbie here and I have to say I don't know much about portable devices. I'd like to buy a high-quality player and my primary concern is the sound quality. There are so many different Cowons on the market that I'm a bit perplexed which I should choose. I've been also...
