    Audeze Mobius Review / Preview - Head-Fi TV

    Just thought i'd jump in and give my thoughts. I received my unit on Wednesday but have only had the opportunity to try them out today. The big deal seems to be hiss. On my particular unit the hiss is definitely present. For those of you familiar with using sensitive iem's with balanced...

    HIBY R6 - DAP Dual DAC Balanced Out - Great Reviews and Over 500% Funded @ Indiegogo!

    Android transfer works well and is easy to use and free. When I added music to my SD card i just formatted the card on the Hiby then inserted the card directly in my mac. Drag and drop what you want on the disk and run scan when you insert it in the Hiby. Works perfectly for me.

    HIBY R6 - DAP Dual DAC Balanced Out - Great Reviews and Over 500% Funded @ Indiegogo!

    I just wanted to drop in and give a quick report here. I received my R6 a week ago. I ordered one from Amazon to be able to take advantage of the return policy if needed. After reading through the thread I was a bit leery about it. After testing it out and using it extensively I can say that...

    HiFiMan Susvara

    Not sure if this is directed at me. I was just stating that opinions of the MSB setup varies. And as far as the 009 goes, I don't even own one so that doesn't apply here either. I do have an 007MK1. I do however own an LCD-4 so I am interested in opinions of the Susvara. And that's why I...

    HiFiMan Susvara

    I wouldn't say its safe to say at all. There are plenty of well documented cases of high dollar stat amps that aren't selling anything more than a name. I've even seen impressions of the MSB Select compared to a BHSE and the BHSE has come out on top.

    The Stax Thread III

    Tried to search for this but can't find the info. Does anyone have any info on changing the pads on a 007MK1? I'm getting a new set in Monday. Thanks for any help!

    This is a complete misconception. Get yourself an 007 or 009 and a Carbon and come back and say that. My 007MK1 with a Carbon has better bass and tonality than my LCD-4 and V281 combo.

    Ayre Acoustics "Codex" DAC/Headphone Amp

    I just spent a fairly good amount of time switching between sampling rates. This included going between DSD and PCM multiple times. I even pushed the volume up to listen for anything. I can't hear anything. No popping or strangeness at all. Weird, why would some units show symptoms and others not?

    Ayre Acoustics "Codex" DAC/Headphone Amp

    Hmm, interesting. I'll have to do some critical listening to try to discern exactly what your talking about. I haven't specifically listened for it. But in the 3 months I've had the Codex I haven't noticed it.

    Ayre Acoustics "Codex" DAC/Headphone Amp

    Is the popping noise limited to when the dac is used as an amp? I use mine as a dac and haven't had any popping when changing sampling rates. And I go through tons of playlists on Roon that switch sampling rates nearly every song. Edit: just for clarity sake I'm running it MacBook running Roon...

    Ayre Acoustics "Codex" DAC/Headphone Amp

    Not sure of the brand. I will check when I get home Monday. But it's just a generic power cord. Nothing special. Same with the USB. The box on the one I got was sealed in plastic. Also, make sure yours came with the warranty card to send in. Sending in that card is the only way to get the full...
