Yes I only used an example impedance of 33 Ohm purely for comparative purposes, as it was available on both ASR reviews. I think the DX7 Pro has an impedance output of 6 Ohm. This was also on my mind, but I've seen that impedance outputs of amplifiers should not affect planar drivers as they...

I'd like to reinforce the importance of amplication power needed for these headphones, by way of anecdotal evidence. I posted before about the A2C sounding compressed, shrill and "noisy", difficult to listen to at average to high volume. This was to the point of considering returning them, at a...

Anyone have tips for a good seal? When I first received my A2C, it didnt sound good. It sounded compressed and distant, and I thought that flarex guy had merit. I'm coming from an Oppo PM3 which was pretty good to my ears. Then, I tried many different positions of the headphone, I got a better...

That's really helpful, thanks for your opinion. It sounds like each have their strengths and weaknesses, and there's no huge gap in performance between them (considering the Z1R costs nearly 2x of the A2C new here in Aus). That's a good point about support as well, although the Z1R is sold...

Struggling to choose between these and Sony Z1R, which I can get around the same price (or cheaper) used. I'm a bit worried the bass of the Z1R which some people say is very good while others say its too much. I must say I do prefer analytical more than bass-heavy overall.

Quote: Although I would be hesitant to call you a troll, your incessant fanboy-ism permeating throughout the whole forum these days have put me off reading anything about the JH13/16s or the Protector, which is a shame. It's great you have these top equipment, maybe you can go and enjoy...

Hey guys, Anyone using the Arrow with a UM3X and/or Cowon D2? This is the combo I am using at the moment. Would there be a noticeable improvement in SQ even with the HPO of the D2? I'm specifically looking for some more sub-bass impact at the moment.

Thanks for the replies guys. I didn't have any earwax anywhere, and I've used both large olives and with normal comply's that were cut off 3/4 of the way. Tried normal comply's without any cutting off and found them to be still lacking (and the reason I moved away from them was they were too...

Hi guys, I've had the UM3X for about a month now and totally loving it. However I think I've noticed a drop in bass response recently for some reason in both ears. I knows its unlikely for both bass drivers to go out, but for piece of mind I'd like to perform some frequency tests to see if...

Hmm. Just got the UM3X last week; love it to death, but would have liked to have known of this news earlier. That being said, not sure if I would go for the detachable cable version anyway, considering my distaste for those memory wires and the pins breaking off my previous customs...

My replacement Freqs arrived yesterday, and I'm pretty damn happy. It is the colour combo I requested. The fit is much better than my previous pair; first I thought it may be too loose, but after a while it creates a nice suction Might put a single layer of nail polish in there though cos...
