    is the HM-601 supposed to play 24/192 ?

    You should also be aware of fact that the player can decode 24/96 files, but can only output at 44,1. Or so I heard. Despite of this, I like the sound very much... so no complains.

    No, it shouln't be able to do that. Hardware limitations. 96/24 is possible. If you really want to listen to that album, you'll have to down-convert it to 96/24. As far as I know... At least this is the case with my HM-602.

    Problems with Hifiman HM-801

    Hi,   generally it's agreed that HM-801 can play 24/96 without any problems, but when it comes to 24/88, results are mixed. Most of the time this doesn't work. I tried some 24/88 files and HM-801 coudn't play any of them.

    Hifiman HE-5 Orthodynamic Headphones

      Quote: Yes, I was at the point when I had a chance to cancel my order for HE-5 and get LE instead, but just because of LE's different sonic characteristic, I stayed with HE-5. Since I haven't heard LE version by now, I cannot say what the difference in fact is. Though...

    Hifiman HE-5 Orthodynamic Headphones

    I bought my HE-5 in February 2010. So far I haven't experienced any wood issues. I'm just surprised to see that HE-5 are still available. My impression was that those are not in production anymore and were replaced by HE-5LE exactly because of wood issues. Clearly, this is not the case.  ...

    HiFiMAN 602: Talk about your initial impressions and specs

    I'm digging my own grave here, but I always thought that HM-801 sounded better after some 20-30 minutes of playback. I'm not talking about HM-801 to EF5 set-up (so no tubes involved), just plain HM-801 to headphones. To me, the easiest explanation was that I had to get myself in the mood for...

    Quote: Main menu, scroll down to till you reach 'Setting', in submenu choose 'LCD timer' and then choose your preferred time.   BTW, why 'Setting' and not 'Settings'?

    Quote: Can't help you. Definitely works for me. Perhaps flashing with lower firmware and back to 0.19 would help.

    Review by 'petercak' on item 'HEAD-DIRECT RE0 In-ear Headphones'

    I have bought RE-0 when I was looking for some portable headphones, but didn't want anything bigger than in-ear ones. I have searched for more expensive ones when I came to RE-0. The price was 99 USD, which was less that I planned to pay. Reviews were highly positive.Since I don't travel much...
