    Xiaomi In-Ear Headphones Pro HD (2 +1 Hybrid)

    Up close and personal   IMHO, Pro HD is fine for listening at home but for daily bus commute, the bass is too weak and the isolation is not that good for my ears. The cable is nice. It doesn't get entangled easily.

      I  confirm that my Huawei P9 with USB type-C connector works fine with HA-2 using the adaptor.

    Right. AFAIK, they were officially made available yesterday on Mi China official website: http://www.mi.com/quantie/

      I really like the Jazz EQ of my L5.  Anyone tried it?

    Chief, I saw your review on Dunu 2000J and you mentioned they "can be bright and thin for some". When I read this, my Altone 200 came to  mind right away. *start whisper mode* Are 2000J as thin as Altone 200?  *end whisper mode*

    Thanks buddy, I'll definitely stop by from time to time, especially to check out Wokei's GIFs.   @Wokei I love that gif of Spock and the cat. Reminds me of Don Corleone and his cat.

    Peter, if you are worried about 4G/LTE compatibility, you might want to look at this Mi Note 5 http://www.mi.com/sg/minote/hifi/. Its 4G LTE should be compatible with both Telenor and Netcoms' LTE bands in Norway.

      Thanks for the shoutout, buddy. I am still alive and kicking but I am afraid I won't have enough money to spend on this hobby anymore as I am about to quit my job before Christmas. :)

    OPPO HA-2 Portable Headphone Amplifier/DAC Discussion Thread

    Good news.... Oppo R7f phone finally works with this Oppo HA-2 DAC thanks to the latest R7f firmware (ColorOS 2.1.0i Build Number R7fEX_11_150914). The charging doesn't work though.

    On a positive note, I found that L5 can outclass the SQ of my Oppo HA-2 DAC+Moto G combo.   L5 seems to have a better dynamic range and can reveal much more details in music. I know this may not be a fair comparison...  so just take it with a pinch of salt.

      Just FYI...   I ran into troubles updating to this 1.0.0.7. The update went well but as soon as I chose the option "Update Media Library", it went to show a progress bar and the L5 just froze. I could switch the L5 off by pressing and holding the power button but whenever I turned it back...

    Thanks John. I am sure you remember that I am one of those affected by the L5 screen cancer issue. Would I be qualified for the trade-in/upgrade? I am interested but I can only take the exchange offer if it happens before Oct 1 because I'll have to travel overseas between Oct 1 to Dec 1.

          Sure, @xuan87. If they are willing to extend the upgrade offer to me, I'll take it.   @JohnYang, any update?
