That is my favorite IEM with Tera. I have been using that as my default on the go combo for years (with the following cable - no idea if this is still made or available): https://theheadphonelist.com/whiplash-twau-reference-gold-ciem-aftermarket-replacement-cable/

I'm also an engineer (software) with more than 30 years of work experience and with lifelong hobby in acquiring all kinds of gadgets that cost me tens of thousands of dollars over the years. Having said this Tera is without any doubt the most amazing electronic device I have ever owned (happily...

I purchased mine for around 800 Euros so I know what you are talking about. However, another way to look at it is as the greatest bargain in history of expensive DAP's at 3000 Euros given it was once also listed at 10,000 Euros. :ksc75smile:

Things got very heated and eventually the thread was locked (including they banned Tera creator Charles from this site). He went out in style however - if I remember correctly he basically told everyone who was on his case to f off by posting some german punk video. It would have been very funny...

This is true for sure. Let me point out that my iem+cable (Tralucent Ref1) cost was definitely not cheap. It was $2k between iem and cables when I purchased - so 10x the current price of Pico! And what surprised me is that this iem sounds pretty damn close as good on Pico as it does when paired...

I have had my new Pico for 2 days now and I like it a lot. So far I have been exclusively using it with my Tralucent Ref1 iem and the SQ of that combo is awesome. I don't think it lags Tera in SQ to be honest with you which I find suprising given how much I love Tera (which I also most often use...

Agreed. My old LPG is still awesome and I just applied another firmware update to it just yesterday. Also, I have been using 512GB card on it for a long time without any issues, so I'm sure they will sort things out on LPGT as well. By the way, I have also just ordered PAW Pico (as a backup for...

I have owned iPod's, including the shuffle (used those before I purchased Tera). They are not even close (not on the same planet) as far as SQ goes as Tera. The only 'portable' dap I have heard that has superior IQ to Tera is LPG. By the way, few years ago I have also tried few expensive AK...

I have been using Tralucent IEM's (plus5, ref1, and 1plus2) for years now. I find them perfect with both Tera and LPG - so much so that I'm not interested in trying anything else (I have stopped following this forum and am only subscribed to Tera, Tralucent, and LPG threads - have absolutely no...

Tera is still my all time favorite as well. While I actually think the SQ on my LPG which I also love is little bit better (more power so drives more headphones), the overall ergonomics of Tera more than make up for that for my use case scenario. Small and screenless with tactile buttons which I...

Thank you - that worked.

Thanks for the info but that link does not seem to work (I tried both Chrome and Firefox)?

I couldn't disagree more. Dedicated devices often do a better job at specific funtions than deviced that try to do it all. Even though smart phones can now take decent photos it does not mean they are better then DSLR's for photographers. Same as dedicated music players, and the unique thing...

No other player exists that has the ability to be fully operated without taking out of the pocket. Just dumping the files in one folder on the touch device and putting the device in pocket is not enough - not even close. You can't navigate the artists/albums/songs if the player only has touch...
