I can't imagine a bass lover taking the Monarch over a Mest. Monarch's bass is really "wet" (not articulated/bad compared to his price class)

Test and comparison of the Lime Ears Anima Introduction: It must be a very special earphone, which is able to wake me up from my self-chosen audiophile hibernation. Whereby, the term "special" could be an understatement in connection with the Lime Ears Anima. Briefly pre-empted: The...

Thiaudio Prestige has a bigger Soundstage than IER-Z1. Alot of air due to no roll off in the treble. https://www.audiophileon.com/news/thieaudio-prestige-review Confirms it while being a fan of the Sony.

Still selling the Baldr?

The Pioneer XDR100 has a toilet paper-holder. They know what ppl rly need.

Well too late. Any way to undo this horrendous mistake? No stock firmware download? No real customer support from Cowon? Thanks for any help in advance?

400GB SDCard works fine. No Complains. No donwsides. But I got another issue. I Downloaded and installed the current p2 (not mk2) firmware. So I would really love to downgrade to the last (and only) firmware of the mk2. Could anybody please copy his MK2 system files and send them to me? I would...
