I saw this pop up on my email feed today and I have to say, it looks pretty exciting.  I had not thought about the ability to build in a headphone amplifier to a speaker.  Does the speaker play while you are hooked up or does it automatically shut the speaker down?  Also, I see that they can be...

Sounds like a good news bad news. The good news is that the rebranding has been figured out, but the bad news is no updates. That is a shame because with the iPhone 7, I wanted to venture out to some stylish Bluetooth headphones. I was hoping these might be my choice when I saw the pop up at CES...

I probably should not have called it a review, it is more like a press release with a description of the product. Regardless, here it is : http://www.theverge.com/circuitbreaker/2016/9/8/12850268/astell-kerns-bluetooth-dac-headphones-wireless

gr8sound, thank you for starting this thread.  I saw the XB10 on a review today and immediately jumped over to Head-fi to get any impressions.  It looks pretty impressive for that price point and I am always looking for good portable gear for me son and I to trade.    I look forward to hearing...

Okay, I was about to pull the trigger on the NAD VISO HP50, but you have given me another good one to investigate. Thank you.

That is fantastic and will probably work for more than just Westone.

I have the Momentums and like them, are the Spirit Pros that much better? I probably have more IEMs than headphones, so I have been eying the Focal Sphear.

Did you keep the Evens or return them?

No problem, it is always good to hear comments from people who have actually sampled the gear instead of people who have "heard" from people who sampled it.  I think the marketing may be a bit gimmicky, but the idea of customizing a sound per your hearing is a pretty cool concept.  I think that...

Since I am in Florida and was no where near making this event, I appreciate the comments made by those who did attend. 

I saw this come up on one of my Google News feeds and spent some time reviewing their site.  They have a sound tuning app that resides on their site that is supposed to mimic what the earphones are supposed to do once you have it.      When you listen to it, it asks you to press a button when...

Is there technology limitation on electrostatic headphones using a 3.5MM jack or are you saying it is just not the standard way they are made?

Great review, in fact my college age son called me into his room to show me the post and offer to buy them (using my credit card, of course). Did you notice a huge difference after burn-in?
