Last week I had to return my B&W PX7 due to a dead left ear cup, then my Sennheiser Momentum 4 right earbud also died. I owned them both less than a year. These Bluetooth headphones are not reliable at all. I suggest you all take out a long SquareTrade policy when you buy them.

Looks great. Would like to audition this with my AKG N5005.

To continue my AKG / Audeze comparison, it has been my observation after listening to both over-the-ear headsets that AKG has a much wider soundstage and Audeze narrower which, of course, will not show on any measurement equipment. Even the N5005 earbuds sound very open and wide, rivaling my...

Thanks! Looks like no need to switch or upgrade! I'm an AKG guy anyhow. BTW I'm really intrigued by the AKG audio in the new Escalade.

I wonder how it stacks up against my beloved AKG N5005, also $1300 when new.

I've also auditioned the 800S extensively and compared it with AKG K812 and HD600. For large-scale orchestral and choral works I prefer the 800s for the recessed and wide soundstage like I'm sitting in the mezzanine section of a large concert hall (as opposed to K812 and HD600 putting you in the...

AKG K812 or Replace stock HD600 cable with thicker HD650 cable, noticeable improvement!

Even the best Bluetooth audio (aptX HD) is less than 50% of lossless CD quality. See the list below -- For critical audiophile listening, I use my hi-res wired desktop setup. For listening and falling asleep in bed, I use my AKG N5005 buds (pillow friendly). For casual listening while...

The new iFi hip-dac portable DAC received glowing review on Techhive. - Burr-Brown DSD1793 - Dual-mono, balanced amp - 32bit/384kHz PCM - 12.3MHz DSD - MQA - $149 Retail

I'm selling my N5005, used only a few times. Original box with all accessories, etc. PM me with your best offer.

HF Player is great. Only thing I don't like is no auto-rotate of screen when I want to see the full title of a track. I use my V30 with AKG N5005. Amazing sound!

I think the new Dragonfly Cobalt would pair great with the N5005.

That's a shame. I'd love to audition Sony WM1Z and DMP-Z1. If only they put a killer dac in their phones like LG!

Normally I would not trust a product with a poorly written description (presumably from China)-- "Acoustune introducs AET07 and AET08 two, allegedly two eartipscan enhance the sound,... If the general random with the attached ear glue, as long as a change will be able to hear better The sound...

The Aurium adds noticeable warmth and ambiance that I enjoy from live concerts (I go to LA Phil at Walt Disney Concert Hall several times a month.) It's a great combo with the AKG K812's wide sound stage to replicate the fabulous acoustics of the Disney Hall. I didn't know anything about...
