    Questyle CMA600i first impressions thread

    Has anyone compared this with the V281? Would also like to know how the HE1000 sounds when plugged into the CMA600i. Also, I've been thinking of just getting a CMA600i instead of a desktop DAC. I would use the CMA600i as a multipurpose unit, using it as a DAC (Balanced out) for my V281 and...

    Violectric HPA V281 - Vorsprung durch Balanced (September 2023 Update: Limited Reissue Edition up for preorder!)

    I forgot to include that as much as possible, I would like a balanced DAC. Would an Emotiva DC-1 suffice as well?

    Violectric HPA V281 - Vorsprung durch Balanced (September 2023 Update: Limited Reissue Edition up for preorder!)

    Thank you for all of you inputs! My budget would most probably lie between $500 to $1500. Currently checking the Lake People DAC RS06, a used V850, and hopefully a used Mytek Brooklyn. I live in the Philippines so I do have a limited number of options here..

    Violectric HPA V281 - Vorsprung durch Balanced (September 2023 Update: Limited Reissue Edition up for preorder!)

    I'm looking for a decent DAC to pair up with my V281. I currently have the HE1000 and planning to get either an Elear or HD800. Been using Stoner Acoustics End Game DAC for now, quite satisfied with it but I would like to try new one. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Has anyone tried pairing the LC with the LP DAC RS-06? I currently have the Sony PCM D100 running through the LCs then the Ether. Would love some feeback regarding the aforementioned pairing. Thanks!

    Reply to review by 'freedom04' on item 'Xiaomi Pistons 2.0 MK301'

    After around 50 hours of burn in, the SQ has improved noticeably but only a little. IMO, the bass became a bit tighter (it was slightly muddy when I first tested it). Soundstage also improved a bit. Mids were still slightly recessed, though the treble became a bit rounder (for me it is good). I...

    Good looking, good sounding, good smelling earphones for only $25. Do you seriously need to think before you buy this? Buy and be amazed.

    NEW - Schiit Asgard 2

    Tube rolling maybe a problem. So I think I'll just have to stick with the Asgard then. I don't think my wallet's gonna stay fat for long if I go for the Valhalla due to the tubes. Haha!

    NEW - Schiit Asgard 2

    Actually.. I have no idea yet, but for now, I am interested in a Tube amp. So I guess I'll just go for a Valhalla 2/Modi combo then?

    Best amp and dac for HD600.

    Thanks for those feedbacks! Apparently, my friend recommended the iDSD to me because he said it would mostly eliminate my need for a separate desktop and portable amp, he said I only need the iDSD and the iUSB (for desktop use). It kinda makes sense to me. Anyway, I would appreciate more...

    NEW - Schiit Asgard 2

      Thanks! As much as possible I would really like to test them before I purchase, problem is that there is no distributor here in the Philippines so I'm pretty much dependent on user reviews. :)

    Best amp and dac for HD600.

    Good day everyone. I am new to the audiophile world and I would like some help on what to choose. So here's my situation, I currently have a Sennheiser HD600 (which I'm powering up with my old JDS C5, source is either my FiiO X3 [DAC function if I am using my laptop] or my MacBook Pro) and I am...
