MrSpeakers Ether CX - $899 from Massdrop
That sucks. I had great experience with a different design for the CX. https://a.aliexpress.com/_mKoyfEA I think that's easy repairable.- mjavate

MrSpeakers Ether CX - $899 from Massdrop
I also swapped the pads with a pair from AliExpress. https://a.aliexpress.com/_mPv0v0X I have not done any proper A/B so I can only chime in on the comfort. The stock pads felt stuffy to my large ears. I opted for this aftermarket one which was the closest I can get to something like the Voce...- mjavate

I understand AGD has been around for years, along with some history (both good and bad)... I'm super late as I first heard about them last year when I came across the Fun model.- mjavate

So many nice setups, inspires me to re-org my stack. It's conveniently set up with my WFH desk at the moment. AGD R2R-1 DAC & DFR -> AGD NFB-1AMP. NFB-1AMP -> pre-out-> EC ZDT Jr. This chain allows me to pipe audio from the 2 sources to the ZDT without recabling.- mjavate

Love this! One person's struggle and finding a solution to a problem that turned into a genius solution. You should thank your wife for this. 😂 And like all hobbies. Your cart could use some upgrades. I suggest new caster replacements with abec 5 rollerblade wheels.- mjavate

Did you end up buying a pair? While I like my CX, I'm not in love with them. You'll need a decent amp to power them as they are not efficient. To get where they sound to my liking, I have to EQ them. When I cycle to them in my rotation, from something like a 6XX-- my immediate first...- mjavate

What is a good DAC and Amp for the Sundara for about $800?
If I had a $800 budget for a dac/amp. I'd opt for the ifi Diablo. It has a lot of power. Balanced out and it's portable. Especially if you like to keep it simple.- mjavate

AudioQuest NightHawk Impressions and Discussion Thread
I have been avoiding EQ for sometime and try to enjoy my set for what they are and how they are tuned from the factory. Once you delve into it, there's no going back lol. Now your whole listening process needs a revamp....As is all things with hobbies like this. Which is the fun part.- mjavate

i've seen those cloth/knit covers on amazon/ebay, but I just opted for loose leather pieces for the sake of matching the design.- mjavate
