    Newcomer: Please recommend some "Upgrades to consider" and a starter Tube Amp to try?

    I love my Xduoo MH2 and use it with my Hifiman Deva pro, Sennheiser 598SR and KZ PR2 HBB and sounds great. I even like the sound of the original tubes.

    Gen 1 Sony WH-1000x sounds better than gen 3 ..?

    I still rate the WH1000XM2 very highly. Whilst they can't compete with my Hifiman Deva Pro when it comes to pure sound quality, they still sound pretty good overall and the battery life is truly excellent.

    Introducing the xDuoo MH-02 DAC & Tube Headphone Amplifier - Now Available on Apos Audio

    I have the same problem with one of my IEM's - I'm using a custom 4.4mm balanced cable with the KZ PR2HBB planar magnetic jobbies - the plug tends to pop out if you look at it funny. Thankfully I don't have this problem with the custom lead I use with my Hifiman Deva Pro's which work wonderfully...

    Reply to review by 'Peddler' on item 'Apos x Community Gremlin Tube Amp'

    Excellent review. I have the Xduoo MH-02 driving the Hifiman Deva Pro's via balanced cable (unnecessary with this amp I know) and I absolutely love the sound. I personally find it much more 'musical' than the Fiio K11 (non-R2R) that I had before. Yup - I'm a valve (tube) convert.

    Xduoo MH-02 - can I swap op amps for Burson op amps?

    Well it appears that the Burson Op Amps that I have are physically too big to fit in the Xduoo MH02 case so that's scuppered my plans. Ah well. As it is I'm really happy with the sound of the amp anyway so perhaps it's for the best. The supplied tubes sound pretty good to me so I'm hesitant to...

    Xduoo MH-02 - can I swap op amps for Burson op amps?

    Hi There I recently purchased the excellent Xduoo MH-02 DAC/Amp and am very impressed with its power and sound quality. I happen to have a couple of Burson Audio op amps and am wondering if these can be used with this amp and, if so, what improvements would they bring. Looking forward to your...

    Fiio FT1 PRO: a competitive neutral planar - Discussion

    These certainly look interesting. I recently purchased the excellent Hifiman Deva Pro headphones (with the bluetooth attachment) and am enjoying them a lot. I've found that getting a balanced cable and driving them with something with some power (the Fiio K11) the Deva's sound great. These...

    DEVA Pro with Bluemini R2R--Combining the Best of the HIFIMAN Latest Developments

    I recently purchased the Hifiman Deva Pro's and I have to say I'm very impressed with both the headphones and the Bluemini. I really can't tell the difference between the Bluemini and my Fiio BTR7 (wired) - except of course the additional volume steps you get from the Fiio. Review to come.

Needless to say that I know what...

    Reply to review by 'Peddler' on item 'KZ x HBB PR2'

    my findings with these headphones pretty much match yours. They were practically unlistenable out of the box but after swapping out the cable for an inexpensive balanced one and connecting them up to the excellent Fiio BTR7 amp - ANDDDDDDD most importantly letting them burn in for many hours...

    Advice needed re: Fiio BTR7/Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra - suitable software?

    Thanks for the reply Jim. The reason why I use YTM is that they offer continual 2 weeks free use with no strings attached for new users. I simply create a new Gmail account on my phone then sign in with it. I can't help being a tight arse. Looking forward to trying my new BTR7 out with both my...

    Advice needed re: Fiio BTR7/Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra - suitable software?

    Hi I'm currently awaiting delivery of a Fiio BTR7 portable DAC/AMP to go with my Note 20 Ultra and a balanced headphone cable for my Sennheiser HD598sr headphones. I need some advice on how to get the most out of this combination when using the amp in USB mode. I think I'm aware of the...

    Official Sony WF-1000XM3 Thread - Noise Cancelling True Wireless Earphones

    I'm using the silicone tips provided with the WF1000XM3's with my WF1000XM4's and they work great. For me, the perfect balance between fit, isolation and sound quality. I love the sound of the XM4's (although I also did really like the sound of the XM3's as well).
