I have both R10 and Qualia 010. In comparison with Qualia,R10 sounds more warm and veiled. When I just got my Qualia,I still prefered R10. However,I like Qualia much more than R10 now, probably because of enough break-in.Or maybe I am get used to it? IMO,the sound of Qualia is neutral and...

After break-in for more than 500 hours,my Qualia sounds wonderful with luxman P1. Qualia with P1 sounds more warm and lush than with other amp I've heard(ATH HA2002,prehead,HR-2).I am interested in how Qualia sounds with singlepower supra or other tube amp. This is my equipment. Victor...

This is the amp for my Qualia. Luxman P-1

How about singlepower supra? I am considering a tube amp for my Qualia.

Qualia 010>>R10

The soundstage of Qualia is amazing!This can makes me feel as if I were listening music in a concert hall. This is the most detailed can I ever heard.

I just got my Q010-MDR1

Impressive setup!...accuphase dp-55..Maybe you should upgrade your source. Be sure take dp-75v in account!

Does anybody know where to buy HE90(without HEV90) at a reasonable price?...I am also think of selling my R10 and luxman P-1 to buy a HE90 if it is still obtainable. Thanks!

Hi, I use adapters just to reduce the wear of the amp's output jack and the plug of headphone by frequent plugging in/out.The 1/4->1/8 adapter is the accessory from Hd650 and the 1/8->1/4 adapter is PC-234HS made by Sony.(left in the picuture) For me,this setup doesn't reduce sound quality...
