    great idea about the Jaybirds. I was simply hesitant ordering any new ones based on others' recommendations, as all of them were just crap. The cheap Tribit X1 is nice with the right tips, but way too bassheavy, I use smaller tips to get a worse seal this tames bass a little. But I will check...

    yes it's me, although I haven't been active for years, it's just yuriv's outstanding review here that made me jump in again, as I share all of his findings regarding the MH750, MH1 by 100%. I also ordered a Quadbeat 3 based on his recomenndation, but the one I got must also be some fake, it has...

    Moondrop Crescent, Aria and Kanas Pro sound similar but still somehow the MH1 remains one of the smoothest sounding if not the drawbacks. As a cheaper solution you can also check the Samsung S8 bundle (Samsung earphone tuned by AKG), I got mine for around 15€, sounds very nice too, not as nice...

    Shanling M1: An iPod Nano Competitor / DAP || USB DAC || USB Transport || Bluetooth 4.0 + aptX || DSD

    new firmware obviously also changed the behaviour of the EQ algorithm, although  not mentioned in the changelog anyhwere. now the gain goes down completely if an EQ-band is boosted. before the gain was already reduced slightly if one of the presets or user-EQ was selected, but afterwards gain...

    Shanling M1: An iPod Nano Competitor / DAP || USB DAC || USB Transport || Bluetooth 4.0 + aptX || DSD

    Any news on the upcoming firmware update? I am having some severe issues with Bluetooth with mine, many Bluetooth devices do not connect at all, sometimes the whole Bluetooth seems stuck and I cannot delete any paired devices, had to reset the M1 already several times because of this.   Also...

    Review: RIVA Turbo X High Performance Premium Mobile Bluetooth Speaker – Plus Headquarters Tour

    I am not quite sure what "loudness wars" have in common with compensation of equal loudness contours, which is what I was referring to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equal-loudness_contour   And no, I am not young, I am 40, but I have spared my hearing quite a bit and hardly visited any...

    Review: RIVA Turbo X High Performance Premium Mobile Bluetooth Speaker – Plus Headquarters Tour

      so you mean I should have simply omitted the frequency response measurements, because the human ear is such an objective unbiased hearing device and changes its frequency response with loudness level and gets quickly used to particular sound colorations without having a direct reference...

    Review: RIVA Turbo X High Performance Premium Mobile Bluetooth Speaker – Plus Headquarters Tour

    Here is another detailed review of the RIVA Turbo X from me:   http://oluvsgadgets.blogspot.com/2015/05/review-riva-turbo-x.html   I also prepared some binaural sound comparisons to several different portable speakers, which you can watch on Youtube.   While I think the Turbo X to be...

    BOSE Micro Music Monitor (M3)

    i also think that these tiny speakers have the biggest sound from anything comparable i have heard. i wonder why only M2 and not the M3 has been released to other countries except japan? i would buy the music monitors directly if they were battery driven and had the same sound on the go. but for...

    How to open DT770 pro?

    i finally found it! i was already desperate because i tried everything, stuffed some additional foam inside, but it was indeed a hair. it was already inside the driver, went through the paper-membrane but first i couldn't see it. then when i looked closer i discovered a little bit still...

    How to open DT770 pro?

    thanks all, i opened them yesterday. took every hair out what i could find. but it seems the problem remained. could it be that the wires of the driver start to vibrate with stronger bass and touch the inside of the enclosure? to me this sounds like a typical resonance sound, because when i...

    How to open DT770 pro?

    the left driver of my DT770 pro 80 Ohm started buzzing around. i assume some hair got inside between the foam-cover and the driver because the buzz changes with different pressure. i also had the same effect with my old koss porta pro. first i also thought the driver was broken, but then i found...

    Beyer Dynamic DT770pro/250ohm - Low bass even with amp?

    the dt770pro 80ohm has by far the deepest bass i have ever heard from a headphone. i mean it is not boomy, it just reaches deep and has lots of power. i like this sound, especially with old recordrings that are mastered a bit more neutral than todays masterings, which are often over the top...
