    NEW HiBy R4

    Hi everyone! Got myself the R4 today. Loving the sound and performance of this DAP. I am wondering if anyone has faced a similar issue to me. When i use my Monarch Mk2 with the stock cable 4.4 balanced, there is intermittent cutting and audio popping in the left channel with even the...

    Focal Bathys Hi-Fi Bluetooth & ANC Headphones: Early Impressions

    Hi guys! I’m loving my Bathys a lot, and have tried using MiMi. Quick question, does it override the EQ? I currently have my EQ set at dynamic. Should i leave my EQ to flat when i run it with MiMi?

    Focal Bathys Hi-Fi Bluetooth & ANC Headphones: Early Impressions

    Thank you so much for the input everyone, i got myself a pair of Focal Bathys yesterday. I managed to demo it alongside the 5909, XM5, and PX8. In terms of sound, i prefer Bathys' offering. With ANC, its not that far off compared to XM5. As for the thudding sound during walking, i'm pleased to...

    Focal Bathys Hi-Fi Bluetooth & ANC Headphones: Early Impressions

    Hi everyone. I’m thinking of getting a pair of Focal Bathys, and would like to know if they’re useable with glasses on, and also, is the anc affected while walking / commuting. I had a pair of Master Dynamic MW65 and walking with those did something weird with the ANC.

    Campfire - Solaris

    Was thinking of getting these, until i got to try them. Build quality is amazing! Love the soundstage on these, much more than my solaris 2020. Low end is lacking definition, sounds light for my preference. Mids are okay, not a fan of the timbre. Highs are pretty bright, sounds metallic to me.

    ThieAudio Monarch MKII Experience

    Hi there, I have been using the Monarch mk2 with the iBasso DX300 for some time now. I am looking to get something more portable for listening on the go. I am deciding between the Questyle M15 and the iFi Hip Dac 2. Which would be a better option ?

    iBasso DX300 Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 Octa-core 6GB RAM ******NEW Firmware 2.00 Android 11******

    Oh i had this happen to me. Something to do with the files being read only. Need to make sure they aren’t read only on Windows. After i made sure it wasn’t read only i could install the image files provided.

    iBasso DX300 Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 Octa-core 6GB RAM ******NEW Firmware 2.00 Android 11******

    Anyone with Dx300 + Android 11 running into battery issues after factory reset? I’m wondering if i should just go back to the previous android version. Just updated to android 11 on my dx300 and the battery life is horrible. Unit heats up and both analog and digital battery is draining without...

    ThieAudio Monarch MKII Experience

    I’ve tried some tips on the monarch mk2. The W1 ended up being hit and miss for me. It fits well, has a good seal but at times it just doesn’t seal at all. I think it’s my ear canal + w1 rotating weirdly in my ear. Tried the Sedna earfit crystals, these were the most comfortable. Fit and seal...

    ThieAudio Monarch MKII Experience

    Just got myself a set of W1 spinfit tips as well, they work so well with the Monarch Mk2! On the stock tips i had to use Small for left side and Medium for right side. It would fit snugly but over time (30 minutes onwards) it sort of feels like it’s coming off. After using the W1 i can just...

    Qobuz Lossless Streaming Service Thread

    Are you running Qobuz on Android? I found the download speeds horrible after version 6 came out. I'm running on a version 5.20.0.1 apk and the downloads are way faster. Give that a try if you're on android.

    ThieAudio Signature Series Tribrid IEMs

    I’m still thinking about sending them back, but i am afraid of the shipping costs and time needed to sort everything out. I did get them through a local dealer, i’ll contact them to see what can be done.

    ThieAudio Signature Series Tribrid IEMs

    Ah okay. The reason i’m asking is because something weird is happening to my Monarch Mk2. Is it possible to reattach on my own ?

    Would this void the warranty on the Monarch Mk2 ?
