I kept the Andromeda, for me it’s no contest. The sounds is just perfect across all frequencies. Xelento’s sub-bass is killing it, way to present. Andromeda’s are less congested and build quality is 200% better (not plasticky!)

I’m quite enjoying the L300 with the 252s, I have the L700 pad on it and I’m waiting for a KGSSHV mini amp to arrive. I am wondering if upgrading to the L700 could be a worthwhile decision. I like very much the presentation of the L300 (very present, fast and forward sounding). What will I...

Can you tell me more about this mod? I considered the 353x as my next option. Do running it balanced makes a huge difference vs the 252s?

Just got the SRS-3100 kit and I’m literally mesmerized by the sound quality. Never heard so much details in a song before! I listened today to my favorite album of all time that I know in and out since 25 years and I heard small details that I never new were there! Now I need to sell all my...

I’ve take the plunge and bought the Andromeda. I must ear them once and for all! I expect to like them better than the Xelento’s but who knows. To each his own.. Xelento are really special to me, easily one of the best DD on the market.

Thanks a lot! It was really helpful. Seems that they each have their own advantage. It’s true that bass and subbass on Xelento is really great, comfort too. Might keep them then but I really want too ear the Andromeda once and for all. I ear so much praise about them.

Hi fellow Headfiers, I need your help. I have the opportunity to buy the Campfire audio Andromeda for a good price and would like to know how much are they better than my Beyer Xelento’s at the moment. Will I gain anything? I listen mostly rock, metal, EDM. Thanks!

Have not heard the LCD2c but I have the Audeze Sine and Isine 10 and i’m quite happy with both too!

Dt1990 are great for everything. Clear, resolving, natural and soundstage is great (semi-open). For EDM/Pop I do prefer the planar sound though (He-560).

I have the DT1990 and the Xelento and I do love both. Xelento’s are a portable solution (commuting) of the Dt1990 IMO.

The Xelento are currently on sale on Amazon.ca at 1000$cad (760$us). Would it be a huge upgrade over my Sony Ex800st (MDR 7550)? I need your recommandations. Thanks!

Yeah, you’re right. I know it’s the 16gb version. But i’m saving over 450$Cad over the 64gb version. It’s a nice trade-off IMO.

MSRP is 799.99$Cad + tx here in Canada on Sony.ca so it’s more like 45% mark-down.

Yeah ZX300A on JoyBuy.com. Around 450$Cad with free shipping. Great deal!

That’s it! Order is done for the NW- ZX300! I’m pretty excited! It’s my first high end dap. I expect a big sound upgrade switching from the IPhone 7 plus. Now I need to find some good pentacon cables for my IEMs. Thanks everyone!
