Hifiman HE1000 Planar Dynamic Headphone
It's all about preference! I've had both and driven them both properly and I prefer he6 because it's a lot more musical than the hd800. But soundstage wise, no way is he6 going to beat the hd800.- knightboy140

Non-audiophile reactions to high-end headphones Part II
Anedio D2 --> kkmaster --> He-6. godlike sound if you don't wanna break your wallet COMPLETELY. My friend: I can't really hear the difference between your setup and my $25 earphones plugged into my phone playing 192kbps files. I then went on to roll my eyes and go ok.- knightboy140

The Beyerdynamic DT880 Discussion thread
I actually have both. And i just AB'ed it. My dt880 are modded to dual entry 4pin xlr so it might not be completely fair. From my own experience, the 4r are EXTREMELY easy to drive, so they sound pretty good out of almost anything. The dt880 however actually needs proper amping. So what I'm...- knightboy140

FiiO E18 Review
Quick question guys. I was wondering if the E18, unlike other protable dac/amps plugged into my phone before, has it's own power supply. Because I had an Ibasso d-zero before and after plugging it into my phone, the sound was GREAT, but it sucked the battery from my nexus 5 SO fast that i...- knightboy140
