Official Sony WF-1000XM3 Thread - Noise Cancelling True Wireless Earphones
I picked up a pair of Apple Airpod Pros today and first impressions are fantastic. I used them on the tube (London's noisy underground train system) and I found the ANC is actually better than what I get on the XM3. The Sony's are very good but for my personal situation where it's just for...- faran

Official Sony WF-1000XM3 Thread - Noise Cancelling True Wireless Earphones
I think it was nc8000, but whoever suggested the Final E LL silicone eartips was absolutely spot on. They have made the earbuds so much better with regards to isolation. I also ordered the Comply TRUEGRIP PRO from the US last week but am still waiting for them to be delivered. Let's see if they...- faran

Thank God I clicked “Add to Basket” rather than clicking “Buy Now” as I hadn’t even considered the Betron B25 that is similar according to Amazon...- faran

Chord Electronics ☆ Poly ☆ (wireless & microSD module for Mojo) ☆★►USEFUL INFO on 1st PAGE!!◄★☆
I wonder how non Head-Fi’ers are coping as they will probably not know that the server is down if they’re just following the instructions on the Chord website. There are no updates on their Twitter feed either. If it wasn’t for this forum I would have gone crazy trying to work out why I...- faran

I actually love that click. It gives me the impression that a thing of quality has been switched on and makes me feel that something great is about to begin and the click off tells me that the "trip/session" has now ended and normal service has resumed.- faran

Spiral Ears SE5 Ultimate Discussion/ Impressions thread
They look awesome. Grzegorz received my Reference pair today and I am upgrading to the Ultimate but unfortunately have to wait a few weeks due to his existing workload I guess. I have gone for the transparent blue colour, which I hope looks good when I get them back. It was so much easier to...- faran

It's great and mine was shipped from Canada on a Monday and I received it in the UK two days later on the Wednesday. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I was under the impression that the SysConcept cable would play files up to 192 kHz but the few DSD files that I have play fine too. Is...- faran
