Does such a thing exist on the market? I need an AKM DAC chip (or an R2R DAC), class A amp operation, and enough juice to drive the Hifiman HE6... Thanks in advance for any suggestions...

They've been out for a while now - so do the Mod House Tungsten slam as hard and are they as physical in the bass as the OG Hifiman HE6? Preferably, from someone who's managed to A/B both of them...? (Might be a bit of an ask given the rarity of the OG HE6) And would that refer to the SS or...

Hi thanks I am actually looking for pure ear defenders with no driver inside - only for sound reduction purposes

There are lots of in-ear hearing protection products that claim to attenuate the sound pressure level whilst preserving frequency response (for use at music venues, live music, drum practice...etc...), but are there any over-ear solutions that do the same? Not everyone can tolerate in-ear...

Is anyone aware of a protective travel case for the HD800s that does NOT require you to detach the headphone cables to store it? I don't want to detach the cable from the headphone every time I store it because of multiple reports of the cable connection point breaking when attempting to detach...

The Elex, Elear and Clear all use an aluminium driver. Aluminium (unlike steel or magnesium) does not have a 'fatigue limit' - meaning that it can only withstand a finite, limited number of deformation cycles before it fails completely and therefore deforms without returning to its original...

How is the dynamics, macro-contrast, slam, and impact (i.e. overall sense of physical tactility) on this headphone? Do kick drums hit with the force of the entire universe imploding? The Tungsten is meant to be the spiritual successor to the Hifiman HE6 - and by most accounts the most special...

Just digging up this thread because it reminds me of back in the day when everyone used to say that the LCDx had more 'slam' or 'punch' than the Hifiman HE6, but then Resolve from The Headphone Show started saying that no actually the HE6 has more slam than pretty much any headphone including...

How secure is the fit for using in a busy studio environment? Like, does it fall off your head forwards if you look down, or fall off your head backwards if you look up? Or does it stay securely in place? Please let me know if you have a big/medium/small head for reference...

Hey - is this still for sale? Would you ship internationally? (UK)

I was using the internal DAC of the multibit Jot 2. Using windows, and exclusive mode. Now have switched to Apple Music and no such popping is taking place...

It's strange though, because using a different DAC/amp (Topping DX5) with Qobuz, there are no clicks or pops - only the Jotunheim 2 + Qobuz combo produces the small pop noises. But do those pops send high voltage spikes to the headphones to fry the voice coils? They're pretty quiet - but I...

I'm not sure what's going on. In Qobuz, if I use one USB port plugged into the Jotunheim, I a get a tiny pop before playback of a track, if I use another USB port plugged into it I get a tiny pop after playback. If I use any other player (Spotify, Apple Music...etc...) there are no pops at all.

Update, the issue actually resolved when plugging in the Jotunheim to another USB port on my USB hub... Still, is it possible that the tiny popping noise I heard on stopping tracks when it was plugged into the other port could have damaged my headphones drivers?

Does anyone hear a tiny pop that is audible in the headphones about half a second after stopping playback of a track (but leaving the amp on - not switching it off)...? I hear that - does it mean the unit is defective? (Sounds good in all other ways). Only happens In Qobuz... Worse still, is...
