    Smyth Research Realiser A16

    Hi, I've been a backer (#305) since I was 45 years old. Now I'm 51 years old, and I'm still waiting for it. Should I need to wait for more to get A24?

    Did you try the 32 bit version with Yeohng's VST Wrapper?

    Audeze LCD i4 TOTL In-Ear Monitor Discussion

    Sure why not! :relaxed: Dave is yet another masterpiece that has its own merit to tell. It takes whatever I throw at it to its max potentials. LCD-i4 is no exception, Dave drives it to the best level possible. For me, the striking characteristic of this combo lies in its ability to produce...

    Audeze LCD i4 TOTL In-Ear Monitor Discussion

    Sure, the sound I get from these little things is amazing and makes me wonder if it's worth it to keep my other full-size high-end HPs (except LCD-4 for its unique tonality). And yes, you should try it with Roon's DSP or use the impulse response files specifically made for lcd-i4 (provided by...

    Audeze iSINE 10 & iSINE 20: Audeze releases two new IEM planar magnetic earphones

    Thanks for the response file. It provides the the best effect on my isine 20 when used with Fiio DAP. I got these files work in my Fiio X5 III using Convolver plugin under ViPER Effect. For anyone with Fiio android based DAP, just change the extension of the wave file to *.irs and place it in...

    Audeze iSINE 10 & iSINE 20: Audeze releases two new IEM planar magnetic earphones

    Yes, isine20 is really at its best through Chord Dave + Roon :ok_hand:. But, my real use of it is in my quiet work office with portable DAC/DAP. Good stuff anyway.

    Audeze iSINE 10 & iSINE 20: Audeze releases two new IEM planar magnetic earphones

    The wave file gives similar tone as the Audeze presets embedded in Roon. I like what I get from this file! Just wondering if there is an android player that can handle convolution process natively!

    Audeze iSINE 10 & iSINE 20: Audeze releases two new IEM planar magnetic earphones

    I received iSINE 20 three days ago, and still experimenting. In general, I do not like to EQ my HP, as it simply destroys its intended sound signature. I like to play my music files unprocessed (bit-perfect) . But for iSINE 20, this isn't the case! This IEM really needs to be EQed to realize...

    Hifiman HE1000 Planar Dynamic Headphone

    I can easily second that! EF-6 is a good match for HE-1000; but I cannot say that for my other headphones. So, I use it exclusively with HE-1000

    Meze 99 Classics Discussion + Impressions Thread

    I have LCD-4, Utopia, HE-1000 V2, etc ...... and my Meze is a keeper! I use it exclusively in my office for portability. Do not expect world-class resolution, but fun and nice details with lovely and warm wave spectrum. Just be sure to get yours with the large earpad. I had ordered mine way...

    HifiMAN HE-6 Planar Magnetic Headphone

       Mods I've done for this damn good HP:   Hardwired it with the excellent cable Zeus Quad21 from Aphrodite Cu29. Robert did a marvelous work despite his family crises. Thanks Robert! Remove the cotton on the back of the driver Replace the stock pads with Alpha Pads.   Pair it with J2...

    Focal Utopia General Discussion

    WA2 surprisingly goes well with Utopia for warmer tone. Utopia's so efficient to drive and incredibly revealing the traits of the attached equipment.

    Hifiman Edition 6 Headphones

    After all, all boils down to the basics (Econ 101): Hifiman's just adventuring around such logic till locks on the elusive "equilibrium" :rolleyes:

    Focal Utopia General Discussion

      Thanks for sharing your experience, that's really reassuring.   I've just received it, hooked it up to my Master 11, and spent 3 quality-quiet hours with it. Yes, it has a comfortable fit with a marvelous performance, almost perfect. One thing that really stands out among other traits is...
