    iBasso DX160 - The listening experience only gets better and better. ******NEW FW 1.09 - link 1st page.******

    Really great dap in a lot of areas, but it is almost deceptive to advertise this as having Bluetooth capabilities. How on earth could it have gotten out of QA is beyond me, other than them just not caring. Otherwise a very good player.

    The New AEON 2: It's The End Of MrSpeakers

    Yea, honestly I don't find the A2C (now the open may benefit more) very difficulty to drive. I've gone back and forth between a couple different amps, straight out of a portable player, tube/solid amps...the difference to my ears is very minor ( now I'm talking difference in sound, not potential...

    You should probably just do the "listen to music" burn in method :) I know..I know...

    Aeon 2 closed Impressions and Discussion

    So far I've tested my A2C with no inserts, and the thin black foam inserts. I'm kinda leaning to the black foam inserts...anyone else try out the thicker ones yet?

    The New AEON 2: It's The End Of MrSpeakers

    I just got my A2C , first impressions pretty darn good. There is certainly more bass, for those who thought the original Flows were lacking, you will be happier. Currently testing out with the thinnest black foam inserts.

    The New AEON 2: It's The End Of MrSpeakers

    I find this to be the exact opposite. Zeos just tells it as it is, from his perspective. 98% of "reviews" out there sound like they were written by AI, an algorithm of buzzwords. They are all biased for the most part, and offer nothing to the average consumer. You have people who plopped down a...

    The Official Sony MDR-Z1R Flagship Headphone Thread (Live From IFA 2016)

    Amazon.uk showing pre-order now, must be out of stock or holding orders. Think I'll wait for it to show in stock before pulling the trigger, give me time to see what the best price US distributors can give on it

    Grado GH-1 Discussion

    I agree, after listening to the G Cups for a long time, going back to L cups is like "huh....this is different".   Not sure which I like better, but there is a big difference in sound. L Cups definitely make me "feel" the sound more.   There is no denying G Cups are 110% more comfortable...

    Grado GH-1 Discussion

    Ah, well...guess I'll give it a go and hopefully won't get an unexpected "sorry, out of stock" email back from them. Might have my last chance to snag a new pair of these.

    Grado GH-1 Discussion

    So are they still chopping this tree down? One of the retailers linked from Grado's site show this as New - In Stock. Wondering if this is really returned product or if they are still making new phones over a year later.

    FiiO EM3 - Impression and Discussion

    I was actually looking at these the other day, was interested in something that might be a little bit of a step up from Earpods for on-the-go listening.

    Norne Audio (Was: Norse Audio): Feedback & Impression Thread

    I just received me Vanquish cable for Alpha Prime headphones. Looks amazing, great build quality, and from my initial listening the sound is excellent. Working with Trevor was great to get these made, and I will definitely do further business. Great products and customer experience.

    MrSpeakers Alpha PRIME: Impressions and Discussion Thread

      I have an HA-2. I can't say one way or the other if you think it will be good enough of an amp for the Primes, but they drive my Primes fine. Listening pretty loud out of an ipod touch 6gen with the HA-2 dial at 4.    I've never been a participant in Amp discussions because I don't...

    MrSpeakers Alpha PRIME: Impressions and Discussion Thread

    Just got my Primes delivered. Very happy with the impressions right out of the box. These do make me want to start upgrading my home amp/dac setup. Really nice closed headphone.
