    Google Nexus 5 + FiiO E18 or FiiO E12?

    Now I have the Focal Spirit Classic, do you think that the improvement with the E6 would be the same?

    Google Nexus 5 + FiiO E18 or FiiO E12?

    Thanks for the feedback. I haven't found infos about the Qualcomm Snapdragon (APQ8064) S4 Pro's DAC, but I think that it's the same WCD9320 used in the Qualcomm Snapdragon 800. Anyway, recently I sold my Sony MDR-1R and bought the Focal Spirit Classic, so do not worry about the tests. Thanks...

    Google Nexus 5 + FiiO E18 or FiiO E12?

    Thanks. If in the future I'll buy another kind of smartphone, for ex. an iPhone or a Windows Phone device, the FiiO E18 will be compatible?

    Google Nexus 5 + FiiO E18 or FiiO E12?

    Every time I look for some info in this forum the result is always the same: I lose a lot of hours (and a lot of money!) Currently I use a Nexus 5 as source along with the Sony MDR-1R headphones and I mainly listen EDM. At the beginning I was looking for an amp and after reading some...

    Best closed-headphone under $250 for EDM/dubstep with Nexus 5/no-amp?

    I think that for my tipical use the E11 might be too big. Reading the web people said that the Snapdragon 800 MSM8974 is a good source considering that it's a smartphone SoC, a better source comparing it to other high-end smartphone. So, now I'm in doubt to purchase the 80 ohms or 32 ohms...

    Best closed-headphone under $250 for EDM/dubstep with Nexus 5/no-amp?

    I'm not questioning UE6000 sound and build quality, but I already know that due to their design I'll feel embarassed for weraing them in public. And its the same for Vmoda (and Beats). I think that the design of all these products is too showy. Reading this forum a lot of users suggest to buy...

    And do you think that having a Nexus 5 as source will not impact on sound volume?

    Best closed-headphone under $250 for EDM/dubstep with Nexus 5/no-amp?

    Thanks man. The only problem is that they look like a Transformer, and I know that the specs are more important than design, but they really look like a toy.

    Best closed-headphone under $250 for EDM/dubstep with Nexus 5/no-amp?

    Hi to all,   this is my first post. For some time I'm documenting to buy a pair of headphones. I've read many posts in this section, in which was basically asked the same question, but I decided to open this thread simply because my needs are not exactly the same as other users. Below, my...
