Took these old toys out of the drawer and OMG they still sound soo freakin' amazing !!!

It's only 10 mins away from where I live... so I might stop by :)

It gets funnier, for me the M2S is on the brighter side :beyersmile:. LPG needs at least 100 hrs to settle down indeed it was brighter before and now it is neutral slightly warm.

Likewise, I still have both. M2S DOES have somewhat air-er sound and seems to better compatibility with most IEMs or headphones out here. However, I am leaning towards Lotoo for its warmer sound Sig and I'm selling my M2S if anyone is interested.

Out of the box my LPG sounded very overwhelming it was a mess comparing to my Aune M2S. The soundstage was over crowded and barely any seperations between instruments. It was overly aggressive and fatiguing too and the ATE settings didnt make sense. However, it continues to improve day by day...

LPG sound quality is like no other DAP it is very accurate and it remains true to recording.

I have never been a huge fan of smartphones as a source but the S8 has improved a lot from their older models included the notes, tabs and laptop. The sound of S8 is cleaner and clearer and with much less harshness in the upper range and overall distortion- a little bit more doable. However...

I had them both too and I hear otherwise, the B+ is the better ones but yes the bass on the older ones has more punch. Single ended vs balance differences depends on what you're listening with. With full size cans ie. HD700 or LCD series the different is so worth it. It is one of the most...

Paw Gold is in da house :smile_phones:

My very first Audeze was LCD2.2 pre fazor and I loved it. I also had 2F, XC for a while and  now my current daily driver is LCD X 2016 along side with HD700 and sometimes 650.    The LCD Pro sounds a little different than any of the LCD family the tonality is stronger, more full body it (macro...

I too had a listen with LCD Pro along side with X and 4 at the CanJam SoCal a few weeks ago. I remember the set ups were Perfect Wave DAC to Phonitor E made by SPL on single ended mode and a seemingly looked like an upgraded cable.   First of all, the new Pro is super comfy and pretty...

I went to CanJam California just last weekend and got a change to audition both 10 and 20 (also LCD PRO) for the first time and I did this after I listened to the whole new series of Noble's newest IEM lines. I am not IEM guy and I like open back Senn and Audeze. All IEMs I have tried never...

I didn't get to listen to all of it but some had left me impressed:   Astell & Kern Kann vs Opus #2 When I entered the show I immediately went to AK booth and listened to their newest pre-order unit the Kann. I am not going into details about this new DAP other than what I think about their...

In my previous post here I had mentioned how Duet compared to Hugo and now I also have Yulong D200 with balance out.

Keep in mind that Duet's tonality is a little warm already pairing them with tube amp might make it really warm unless that's what you're looking for.

Yes, I'm running 1/4" headphone out to stereo RCA on my Liquid Carbon- get the best sounding cable you can find :) Running straight from Duet it's not bad at all but you're missing the the true capabilities of your headphone especially LCD and all Sennheiser HD. The other good thing about Duet...

When it comes to DAC, audition is a must ! This is where things go long way on your journey. Sensitive headphone like HD800 or 700 is excellent to detect if there's any harshness and discrepancies on all spectrum, turn it out loud as much as you can handle and listen for peakiness, distortions...

Hey guys,     I have the latest Duet and what is even better is using a dedicated balance amp for your Duet. I have Liquid Carbon and the improvements is significant ! The level of detail, depth and sound placements is on another level..The sound is so powerful with great impact. 

Just want to say HD700 is still one of my fav headphone to date alongside with LCD X and it's baby brother HD650. The choice of DAC and cable for this headphone is really critical if you want to get the most out of it. I make a killer cables for these headphones. In some cases HD700 could out...

  that's so funny my friend haha..

Pardon for sounding like a broken record but cables Do make a difference especially for high definition cans like Audeze and Senny, maybe not to a degree where you want it or the price you pay for but these headphones are Amazing. They scale with better equipments as well as the right cables...

Good for you. May I ask what kind/ brand of SD card are you using? I probably need to get a different one.

Hi I did the 5.84 mb. The one on top didn't work for me. I could have been just my card being formatted other than fat32 or could be the different brand. I might have to reformat all over again.
