It looks a lot like a full size can upgrade from Sony 1R....   Housing material is same-same I think.... 1R has vent on the top, this is at bottom.   Is Sony "improve" 1R and makes a big can for home music ? In that case, I think the street price will be under 1000$...um like from 600$ to...

  Oh...so If i tell you my ebud Sennheiser MX880 and iem UE900....i throw them to the washing machine....wash it...dry it...and they are still working without any change in term of sound. When i take ue900 out, i can see very clear water inside housing.   It is a true story and my family did...

^ Agree. The feeling of holing vinyl on your hand, putting on turntable, playing etc....is must better than you play with cd. That why vinyl or reel are special. And also, people who enjoy vinyl have collected a good-old-day vinyl records.   IMO :)

  I know some, their gears include th900, fitear, hd800, stax....they still enjoy music mp3 320 kbps.

If the meet is on Saturday I will be. :)   Gear can bring :   CAN AD2000x CD900ST   AMP Torpedo ...maybe some ss amp as well.

I want-need-love to listen AD2000x with Mainline badly :(

that is clear now anyway. that why i ask for providing the link....bad luck it is the "loud version" :)

Base on the youtube link...I try with HD650 / K601 / HD800 out from ODAC/O2, 2.5x gain, computer vol max, my room is very quiet and has a relax atmosphere :) . The music is playing nice with the volume knob around 9h30-11, at 11 is really loud for me. Let's just say i don't have any hearing...

Tube-rolling is a fun experience. But for the first amp i think you dont need to roll anything. you may think rolling and it sounds complete difference and u have a new amp everyday right ? Belive or not, it is just for fun in few day. After that u will end up listen to oneset tube because....u...

Schiit Modi or Vali...they are surprised cheap. After your ears have "a training" with the sound : from dac, from amp, and also from headphone, you can upgrade to better one later, without loss too much money :)

  could you please provide the link to this masterpiece...

I prefer music out of the hd5 > c5 than modern dap like ipod / sony etc... i dunno about "highend" dap like ibasso or ak so cannot comment. To my ears, sound signature is very nature - less digital feeling and almost flat. Very nice for the price i get it (very cheap) and look cool as well. :) ...

    Headphone out of HD5 is quite noisy for iem and ebud. That is the reason I upgrade C5 to use with the line out, sound is transparent and open a bit without any distortion / noise :) Before I used with ue900. But yesterday my brother in law throw my jean to the washing machine with the...
