Review by 'SilverCans' on item 'Boltune BT-BH011 Noise Cancelling Headphones'
Excellent sounding headphone, best sub $100 I've ever heard. Clear, punchy, tight sound, with lovely mids, and detailed highs without any harshness Summary of main review: Without getting into too much details with respect to sound quality my preferences are as follows: Sony 100MX3 > Boltune...- SilverCans

Boltune BT-BH011 Noise Cancelling Headphones
Boltune BT-BH011 ANC Headphones As mentioned in my last review, noise cancelling headphones are becoming very popular. Arguably, the undisputed kings in noise cancelling arena are the Sony MX-1000X3 and the Bose QC35II; both of which I am intimately familiar with. While I found the...- SilverCans

Review by 'SilverCans' on item 'Boltune BH010 ANC Headphones'
TLDR: Let me cut to the chase, you often get what you pay for and with ANC headphones that's pretty true. Without getting into too much detail the H10 and Apollo 1 were terrible. 7Bs were good (really great ANC), and the Sony's, avg sounding (terrible ANC). For the cost, the Boltunes impressed...- SilverCans

Boltune BH010 ANC Headphones
Boltune BH010 ANC Headphones Lately ANC bluetooth headphones have become all the rage. Take a look at all the offerings on Amazon or reviews on Youtube and you will see what I'm talking about.

Yes Fred, you are one of the 3 owners and honestly the only main commenter on this item. It's been out 6 months. That says something when no reviews are flying off the news stand. You should not comment on Yaggi given your admission to never hearing one, this isn't an insult.- SilverCans

Audio-Gd Master 7 - Discrete Fully Balanced DAC (PCM1704)
HE was always A-GD's regenerative psu series. You could order their top dac as HE in the past, typically in a 2 box solution. Question is, how does it improve the Master 7 sound. Kingwa please tell us :)- SilverCans

Audio-Gd Master 7 - Discrete Fully Balanced DAC (PCM1704)
http://www.audio-gd.com/HE/HE-7/HE7CH.htm Looks interesting. Wonder how does it effect the sound? How does it effect the bass texture and detail. I asked Kingwa but just got a link. Also, what is currently being developed. I don't want to spend $3200 on the HE-7 only to find out that...- SilverCans

Audio-Gd Master 7 - Discrete Fully Balanced DAC (PCM1704)
Got ya. Thanks. Trying to read all 158 pages of this thread :/. M7 is a sizable purchase and debating between DirectStream or even the NFB7. If I go A-GD I may even go HE option (power generator from Kingwa if he still offers it) Quick question. JCAT or PPA into a OR5/6 worth it? If so which...- SilverCans
