Sonic Satori - HRT Levels the Field with the MicroStreamer
Does the Droid Maxx have Lollippop? If so, it shouldn't be an issue. If not, you might have to use the USB Audio Player Pro app.- ocelot2500

OPPO PM-2 Is Available - Post Your Impressions Here
I tried some small mods, but part of the problem is the type of music I have been listening to lately, mostly punk/hardcore/emo stuff. A lot of it is treble heavy, and some of the recordings are not the best quality. I think the other part of the problem is that my ears are just drawn to the...- ocelot2500

OPPO PM-2 Is Available - Post Your Impressions Here
Thanks for the responses. Sounds like the oppos check another box for me. I like the HE-400s too, but the treble just kills me. Vocals also feel distant on it, and I really only use it for bass heavy stuff nowadays. With that said, I am looking for a different sound signature. The...- ocelot2500

OPPO PM-2 Is Available - Post Your Impressions Here
Hi all, I have been looking into a new set of headphones with laid-back treble and full mids, so the oppos popped up on my radar. I have a question though, how do these fit on smaller heads? For reference, I own the HE-400s and ATH-M50s. The M50s fit fine, but the HE-400s they are a...- ocelot2500

Sonic Satori - HRT Levels the Field with the MicroStreamer
Hey guys, I am feeding my microStreamer to a Vali to He-400 right now. I just listened to the most recent Caribou album, and it sounded great. The microStreamer adds something that was missing. This reminds me why I got into this hobby, to enjoy music. The microStreamer definitely...- ocelot2500

If you want an interconnect cable you can customize, try BTG-Audio. I ordered my cables from there, and it worked out great for me. The prices are reasonable as well, a three to six inch mini-mini cable will be less than $40.- ocelot2500

Sonic Satori - HRT Levels the Field with the MicroStreamer
Thanks for the response. I got a chance to try a few different media apps last night, and the one you suggested was the only one that worked. Also, their USB Audio Player Pro worked, it just took me a minute to realize you need to use the player's volume control to adjust the volume on the...- ocelot2500

Sonic Satori - HRT Levels the Field with the MicroStreamer
Thanks for the response. I haven't had a chance yet, but I was planning on trying different media players. I'll report back if I find something that works. It isn't that big of a deal anyways, since most of the time I feed the microStreamer into an amp.- ocelot2500

Sonic Satori - HRT Levels the Field with the MicroStreamer
Hello all, Let me start off by sating I have had the microStreamer for over a year now and it is great. It works really well as a compact DAC/Amp that I can use in the office with my IEMs. I just got a new phone (HTC M8) and would like to use it with the microStreamer. When I plug the...- ocelot2500

Sonic Satori - HRT Levels the Field with the MicroStreamer
Thanks for the response. Since the HE-400s are fairly efficient, I was thinking they should be good to go with the MicroStreamer. If not, I have a couple of amps I can use. Either way, I got the HE-400s and will report back on my experience if anybody is interested.- ocelot2500
