Plugged the hd800s into the dx90 and was shocked how well the amp could drive them.

Yay mines arrived.

Played around with the 1.2.8 with 1.2.2 sound, have gone back to standard 1.2.8 as I prefer this one.

Nice looking studio V, I think mines the second edition but its impressive sounding. Have you had any experience of the device displaying a padlock and locking the controls? Its the one thing I don't like.

I think the glacier a excellent amp, but being a retailer he probably doesn't like to recommend stuff, Pete millet is the designer of the glacier and he designs some rather nice tube stuff as well.

I've got a few DAC/amps, the audio quest Dragonfly doesn't work with stock android on the Samsung s3 but does with USB recorder pro, I've got a ud110 on the way which as far as I've told the version 2  is fully s3 compatible, will confirm.

Picked up a Ibasso dx50 last week, pretty chuffed with it

Never really found the bass lacking on the 535's, picked up a RSA intruder which I havn't spent a lot of time with but seemed to give the shures some extra ommph low down.

Quote: Thats acrtually what Im talking about, neutron for android has parametric digital eq.

Equalisers introduce phase variations, unless their of the parametric type (I believe).

Im just going to stick with my trusty s3 for a while until they sort the s4 problems out, the google s4 edition look interesting has anyone confirmed DAC support, the only reason Im wondering this is my nexus 7 had googles latest release but didn't have DAC support so I had to put smoothrom on it.

I think if some people actually do some research to find shares RRP of this product they will find it is quite a bit more than $1000, its not something I wanted to mention due to the amount of fluff this threads collecting over the price and putting down of shares new flagship based on price...

The threads off topic most of the time, regarding the price of something which hasn't been released or extensively reviewed.

Well not completely true, apple designs and manufactures the new A6 or something the also bought out instrinsity who specialise in optimising ARM's holdings design. but Im going to shut up now.

Its pointless comparing costs of a 3gs and iphone 5 most the hardware inside is made by other manufacturers anyways, apples plant hasn't been running long. In fact samsung and intrinsity designed the cpu in the 3gs.
