    SE535 painful treble

    Ok, you may think im nuts, but I have the Fii0 m23, and I roll off the treble, narrowly, at about 2,000, a few DBs with the PEQ. I listened to them a couple of days ago for 2 hours, and the sibilance was mostly gone. If you have this capability, you might try it, worked for me.

    Stax

    did you actually say that Stax are LESS detailed? if so, I totally disagree. I have not found a more detailed can , in my life, ever. Perhaps they aren't set up right? Crappy amp? Not sure, but the reason I have mine (Lambda Pro) are FOR the incredible detail, and the ability to reproduce...

    Fiio M23 Equalizer Issue solved.

    Thought I would put this up, as im hoping that im not the only one who was struggling with this, where I can help out the community. I got the M23 a couple of days ago, and I was annoyed to find that the equalizer didn't seem to have any effect whatsoever. I played with everything, even reset...

    [FiiO BTR17/BTR7] True Lossless Bluetooth, Portable Bluetooth DAC and Headphone Amplifier BTR17 Is Officially Released!

    yeah no one has any idea why this is happening, and I haven't heard a word from FiiO, which is disappointing. I will send it back, and get a DAP at Can Jam next Month. its a shame, as it is a nice little unit, but this problem is annoying, and I expected more.

    Im very excited to hear the Cayin n3ultra at can jam, as if they do what I think, you can get tube sound in your pocket? I told my friend Steve I wanted something that would be "a real departure in sound" before I had ever even heard of Cayin. has anyone heard them? and if so, what are your...

    Fiio BTR17

    Well, it may be going back. On Bluetooth, it works fine, but in pc or phone the volume doesn’t get louder after 40. The forums on their site don’t work, so I could ask a question. I’ll see what happens when their holiday is over , or, ill Just send it back and get something else

    Fiio BTR17

    I just got my BTR17 yesterday, and with the help of Steve Surfaro, have been learning how to use it. Im finding precious little content for it, in the DSD realm, so if anyone knows of places to get .dsf content, please let me know. I did want to show something I was listening to using my...

    Guys, didnt you forget the Sennheiser IE-80s? When i was looking to upgrade everyone said they might be the best in ear headphones on the market, and as i have a few different ones, once i got the IE-80s, i dont use any of them any more.
