Thanks!  I really like how the color scheme came out.   Just to add some points to Riktor's review.   My fit is top notch!  Westone did my impressions at CES with a bite block.  Whatever I do, I cannot get the seal to break.  They are also super comfortable. I've worn them for over an hour...

I finally received my AC20's after delay from Westone.  Haven't had much time to listen to them yet, but plan on doing so this weekend.    

I also have a set of AC20's being built.  Ordered them at CES and got impressions done Westone's booth.  I will post thoughts here once I receive them. 

Everyone was correct in saying that adding an amp to the stack with the DX50 makes a world of difference.  I've finally got around to listening to the rig with my C5 added.  All I can say is absolutely amazing! I couldn't be happier with the set up!

Hey Joe,    I'd love to audition/review the X5.     Headphones - Westone 4R, Westone UM2, SuperFreQ's, Senn HD555 DAPs - iBasso DX50, Clip Zip + Rockbox, iPhone 5S, Macbook Pro FiiO Products - Had and X3 but returned it. Reviews Posted - None Geographical Region - Akron, OH Language -...

Quick question.  Do you think that the C5 pairs better with the DX50 (Westone 4R) than an RSA Tomahawk?  With the Tomahawk and DX50, I honestly can't tell that much difference between the headphone out of the DX50 (other than the Tomahawk has no hiss).  I'm on the fence about ordering a C5 and...

I voted DX50. I had both the DX50 and X3 at the same time.  I returned the X3 as it was too dark with my Westone 4R's.  The DX50 had better instrument separation and a wider soundstage than what the X3 had.  DX50 also seemed to have better synergy with the 4R's. As the poster above noted, iBasso...

Love 1.2.6 except for the gapless.  This is the best synergy and sound sig with my Westone 4R since I've had the DX50 (1.2.2). The increased bass is just perfect for the 4R.

Love my 7th batch DX50!  I just sold my Fiio X3 and decided to keep the DX. I feel the DX has much better synergy with my W4R, better instrument separation and no bloated mid bass like I felt the X3 had. Now if iBasso can just get some more of the bugs worked out.......

Elluzion, My set also has over the ear cables for the orientation. Great idea for a thread!

Thanks for clearing things up Todd. It sure has been a pleasure working with you and have enjoyed our emails back and forth. One question though, have you made a final decision if you are going to upgrade the cables on the SuperFreQs?

Regarding the hiss. I have hiss out of everything that I plug them into except my RSA Tomahawk. They are dead silent with it. On a side note, they sound absolutely amazing with the Tomahawk. The clarity and detail is superb.
