RU6 + Monarch MKII combo is just amazing to my ears. Monarch MKII can be a bit spicy at the treble when paired with my Earstudio HUD100 (i listen to multiple genre music, i can listen to classical songs one day and modern pop songs on the next day lol). The RU6 noticeably smoothen out all the...

Just a short impression/review of the Monarch MKII after using them for a couple of weeks: 1) It's the first pair of headphones/iems that I owned where I did not have to EQ the treble down (because Im treble sensitive and trebly headphones/iems somehow causes my tinnitus to come more often than...

I have a pair of Monarch MKII iems preordered (should be arriving sometime next week). This will be my first foray into kilobuck IEM territory (was a headphone guy, with Hifiman Arya v1 & Acoustune HS1650CU the highest end headphones & IEM that I previously owned. Eventually sold both of them...

I have also received the replacement drivers a week ago and I can confirm that the high pitch squeal is gone. :D

Nothing can produce timbre as good as Hd650 unfortunately. Not even sennheiser’s own dynamic flagships

Just got my hands on these. initial impression: they sounded really good for the price. I have to agree with some others’ comment about the sound being almost like a planar but with estats highs. Decent bass reproduction (in estats world, they r great). As detailed as Stax L300 but with...

Traded my ZMF Aeolus for my friend's almost brand new stax 353x (with top up of course) to pair with RR1. sounds crazy to some of you, but I never had a love relationship with aeolus despite its universal glowing reviews. I liked it, but for warm/dark headphones, i liked HD650 more lol (sounds...

Im planning to buy this 2nd hand since the amp hasnt been up for sale on massdrop for about half a year. However, massdrop's warranty policy is that only the original purchaser/account owner can request for after service support for products sold on massdrop. Is there anyone that I can be in...

just bought a unit. hopefully will arrive in 1 week time. :) my intention is to use this as a transportable amp/dac without needing to carry power plug and not needing to worry about battery life. :)

Unlike HD600/650, HD58X does not scale well with better amps. Magni 3 is more than enough for the HD58X.

Got my ZMF Aeolus earlier this week. Pic side by side with my Hifiman Arya. Aeolus if I want warm, natural sound. Arya if I want neutral, bright-ish sound. :) Great build quality, surprisingly lightweight. Thanks to Mr. Zach and his wife who have been promptly responding to my emails during the...

nice. im currently no. 3 on the list. i did receive a reply from mr zach recently stating that my aeolus order will be posted before the end of the month. finger crossed :)

I am currently owning a pair of Hifiman Arya for about a month now, and have been listening to them extensively. This is a very linear sounding pair of headphones. This means that while nothing really stood out, everything in the frequency response feels very balanced. The build quality could...

Just got my Hifiman Arya. First impression: build quality somewhat better than expected. Still plastic, but maybe slightly more solid feeling than HD800S. Slightly more comfortable than HD800S, which was my most comfortable headphone that ive ever owned prior to the purchase of Arya, due to less...

As a guy that is sensitive to peaky treble and sibilance, I must say that Aiva has a very fun and addictive treble that I havent heard of in other headphones. Normally people would put those adjectives for bass but for aiva, its the treble. Very aggressive presentation on the treble to push...
