    I just noticed that the text is the same for the regular Phönix. But if I remember correctly, it comes with a 2.2mm cable and a 4.4mm adapter. Could it be that it is the same case here?

    Oh wow, I wasn't expecting such drastic improvements. I initially thought the LE = OG + more bass + cool faceplate. Good to know!

    9th Vienna Meet Impressions Thread

    Hi Sebastian,  this is really uncool, sorry to hear that.  On a different note, it was my first head-fi meeting and I had lots of fun. Thanks again for the organization.

    [TEASER] Massdrop x ??? - New Custom In-Ear Monitor available September

    Thanks! Just wondering whether a little bit of shrink tape at the connector's side could reinforce the structure and help with the issue. :)

    [TEASER] Massdrop x ??? - New Custom In-Ear Monitor available September

    New Cable For IE8?!! (called Red Angel)

    My nightstalker cable eventually got quite soft and flexible. But still no comparison to the stock IE8 cable, which is IMHO still the best.

    New Cable For IE8?!! (called Red Angel)

    I have the nightstalker cable made by them. It's made of silver plated copper wire. It gave the bass more punch but not bloated. The treble were clearer but not annoying. Some would say it lifted the veil a little bit. But I was really surprised by the sound-stage, which got even broader. The...

    Review: Entire Meier Audio Headphone Amp Line Compared

    Skylab...this is a really nice review! I almost bought a Cantate but now I´ve decided to save up for a Opera instead. But how does the Darkvoice 337 do compared with the Meier amps? Is it better ( or just different) from the Opera? Am I mistaken and it´s more in the Cantate level than the...
