EarMen- Angel EarMen- Angel INSTAGRAM LINK: Prelude: For those who already know me, it will probably be no secret that I mainly like mobile solutions. At least that was the case in the past, but recently it has been changing quite a bit thanks to manufacturers such as HIFIMAN or EarMen, reviewed today. Thanks to their hard work and constant striving to exceed the boundaries of perfection, they prove not only to me, but also to other skeptics that big can do more. What if we are looking for great sound without compromise and at the same time want to...

EarMen ST-AMP EarMen ST-AMP INSTAGRAM LINK: Prelude: There are companies that simply do not need to be introduced, one of such companies, despite their still young age in the pages of history, is EarMen, proving at every step that a small sea can be beautiful. By constantly breaking the barrier of technological limitations, it proves how important it is to approach each component in order to create and achieve success. Today we will take a look at their next creation, EarMen ST-AMP. Initially priced at USD 599, it is now available at an excellent...

EarMen-Tradutto EarMen-Tradutto INSTAGRAM LINK: Prelude: Tradutto is a reasonably priced DAC enriched with Bluetooth and fully sealed architecture. More insightful people are probably wondering how I can write that equipment that initially cost over USD 799 and is currently available for USD 499 is reasonably priced. It’s very simple, I don’t see it through the prism of price, but through the price-quality ratio. If you are curious about this ratio in the case of tradutto, see for yourself later in the article. Unboxing and execution: Unpacking...

HIFIMAN ANANDA NANO HIFIMAN ANANDA NANO: INSTAGRAM LINK: PRELUDE: Those of you who follow me and read my reviews probably know that there are brands that have become legendary. One of such manufacturers is undoubtedly HIFIMAN, whose philosophy and tuning have become a point of reference for many. While testing models of open headphones such as edition xs, sundara, HE400SE, or the slightly more expensive Arie organic, it was time to check out the latest version of one of the more popular models in the mid-price range, Ananda nano. So I invite you to...

MatAudiofile iBasso DC04PRO iBasso DC04PRO In my review i used flac files and my own tidal playlist. Prelude. iBasso is not idle, releasing new series of mobile DAC/AMP like new collections of clothes. And so, with the end of winter, the phenomenal DC06 left, and its place was taken by the improved DC04 with the pro note. Does pro mean better? By definition, it should be so, but as the world has shown more than once, it is not so obvious. Quite recently I wrote to you about a great metamorphosis, which was the unrivaled DAC/AMP DC03PRO at the...

MatAudiophiles HIFIMAN EF600 HIFIMAN EF600 INSTAGRAM:LINK Prelude: HIFIMAN needs no introduction, they have proven many times how much they can achieve and if I wrote that they fail, I would have to lie. After the great success of the EF400, they decided to present the EF600, a versatile DAC and AMP with several additional functions. The structure was built in such a way that it can also be used as a stand for headphones, which I really like. On board we have two DACs from the himalaya pro series on R2R and a solid amplifier with a power of 5.12...

MatAudiophiles Celest phoenixcall Celest phoenixcall instagram: LINK Prelude: Celest delights again, literally presenting something that I did not expect at all. Belonging to one of the best Asian brands in the field of IEM, the young Celest brand stands for innovative solutions and timeless elegant design. Initial models such as gumitcho and pandamoon were of great quality and very affordable prices. Finally, the celest brand managed to popularize their proprietary F.P.D. transducer. In the PHOENIXCALL model, however, it was decided to completely...

MatAudiophiles Hifiman audivina Audivin hifiman INSTAGRAM: LINK Prelude: Hifiman Audivina is another Hifiman approach to the topic of closed planar headphones. After a quite successful debut in the form of the Sundara closed back, Hifiman has not abandoned his plans to prove to us that he can surprise us with closed back headphones as much as, for example, with the open Sundara or Edition XS. This time the whole thing was created completely from scratch, practically everything in the Audivin model was redesigned, creating a completely autonomous...

MatAudiophiles HIFIMAN ARIA ORGANIC HIFIMAN ARIA ORGANIC INSTAGRAM: LINK Prelude: Is an additional insert in the name in the form of the word „organic” and a slight change in style the only changes from the legendary Aria model that the latest version of these headphones brings? These are definitely not the only changes introduced by the latest version of the legendary Aria model from hifiman. Priced at USD 1,299, the new Aria has something to be proud of. After reviewing the Deva pro, edition xs, sundara and other hifiman models, I am happy to...

MatAudiophiles HIFIMAN SVANAR HIFIMAN SVANAR INSTAGRAM: LINK Prelude: HIFIMAN is a company that hardly needs any introduction, they are one of the leading audio manufacturers on the market and constantly prove their position as a leader. They are constantly working to release better and better equipment and have a lot of their own technologies. Recently I had the pleasure of reviewing Svanar Vireless, the TWS from hell, which is a continuation of HIFIMAN’s vision in the field of uncompromising audio. The headphones costing USD 499 made a stunning...

Przeskocz do treści MatAudiophiles Quen of Audio Vesper 2 Quen of Audio Vesper 2 instagram: link Prelude: Unfortunately, I did not have the opportunity to listen to the previous model from QoA, i.e. the classic Vesper. However, the new generation of this fairly well-known model interested me primarily with the price and very nice design. We have a choice of a smooth orange color or a hand-decorated blue color. The configuration has undergone a slight modification. We still have 1DD and 1BA driver. This time, however, a very good knowles converter...

Prelude: There has always been a lot going on in the headphone market, but manufacturers of IEM headphones, i.e. universal in-ear monitors, are constantly competing with each other in interesting ideas. Letshouer is a brand known for impeccable workmanship, exemplary approach to its products and innovations. This time they served us a quite unusual design, because their latest DZ4 model consists of as many as three dynamic drivers with a diameter of 6mm and an additional passive radiator with a diameter of 6mm, which, thanks to the semi-open design...

MatAudiophiles Hifiman Svanar Wireless: Hifiman Svanar Wireless: INSTAGRAM: Prelude: Times change, generations of audiophiles too… We are constantly on the go and often we just don’t have time or opportunity to take our favorite equipment with us in the form of a heavy amplifier and headphones. That is why the TWS headphones market is constantly growing and is currently bursting at the seams with the release of new products. Manufacturers are trying different solutions to reach the audience. However, Hifiman went a different way, offering all its...

hifiman edition xs Hifiman edition xs: instagram: peludium: Edition XS is a tribute from the hifiman to audiophiles with a slightly smaller budget. Their pedigree goes back to the excellent he1000s. On the other hand, the price of USD 449 puts them lower than the much more expensive Ari. Recently, I tested, among others, sundare and its closed version, they made a very positive impression on me. It was similar in the case of devy pro or r9 and he400se. Thus, having an idea of the quality and class of the sound presented by hifiman, I could...

Hifiman sundara closed Hifiman sundara closed: Instagram: Prelude: On the market, planar headphones are still a solidly developing part of the market, while we have quite a lot of open headphones in this technology, if we want to combine them with a closed design, we have to make a lot of effort to find something interesting. Unfortunately, this is a kind of headphone niche and hifiman should be commended for taking the gloves and releasing a closed edition of one of the most appreciated headphones, which were sundars. Unboxing and ergonomics...

hifiman sundara: Hifiman sundara: instagram: Prelude: Hifiman does not cease to surprise me when it comes to value for money, taking into account the great price offer under which we can buy the original sundares of the 2022 edition for 299 USD on the official hifiman website, you can’t ignore its sonic value. The Sundars have had the opportunity to prove their extraordinary sonic value more than once, becoming the subject of many discussions in the audio industry. In my collection there are models such as HE400, deva pro with bluemini, R9, edition...

ddHifi BC150B ddHifi BC150B: instagram Prelude: There are many headphone cables on the market, ranging from a few to even several thousand dollars. They will certainly be more expensive. Manufacturers are constantly outdoing each other in providing us with better and often more expensive accessories. ddHifi, however, decided to go a completely different way, offering great quality and a decent price. The BC150B model, because that’s what I’m going to talk about in this review, is the latest headphone cable dedicated to large headphones from the...

MatAudiophiles hifiman deva pro DEVA PRO INSTAGRAM: Prelude: DEVA PRO is an interesting proposition from HIFIMAN because it is based on headphones with a large planar transducer and stealth magnets. They are open and practically protrude slightly from the head. However, what distinguishes them is that in addition to the possibility of a wired connection with a classic cable, a great bletooth adapter based on the R2R bluemini architecture with the original HIFIMAN chip is included. Does this approach to planar headphones make sense? I invite you to...

MatAudiophiles HIFIMAN HE-R9 Wired HIFIMAN HE-R9 Wired: INSTAGRAM: Prelude: Can being an alien be a musical revelation? This philosophical question will start my assessment of quite original and very unusual headphones from hifiman, i.e. the HE-R9 WIRED model costing 199 USD in the wired version on the day of writing this review. A strong aspect is the ability to connect a great bluetooth module with devy pro which is bluemini. Why did I start this article? Because these are very futuristic headphones, which is not accidental. Because the unusual...

Sivga oriole Sivga oriole: instagram: @mataudiophiles Prelude: I have known the sivga brand for a long time. After all, it is thanks to the great position of the v21 robin model. I will not get a better position for PLN 650, however, taking into account the specific character and tuning on the L plan with a boosted bass, I was happy to grab a slightly more expensive position, which is the oriole model. Promising foldable shells and greater sonic balance. At the same time, care was taken to preserve the timeless design and beautiful wooden housings...
