DX240 DAP. DAC ES9038PRO - NEW: AMP8MK2S .****** NEW Firmware! 2.01 *******
What in your opinion are the best headphows to compliment the DX240? I was interested in the iBasso SR3 but I see that they have a quality (paint peeling) problem so I don't think I want SR3 or SR2.- tokyodan

I got two sets of mid-level headphones, $200.00 to $300.00. And the ear pads and the headbands of both are peeling so badly that they leave pieces of the fake leather covering on my ears and in my hair. I know the earpads can be replaced. but not the headbands. Therefore... are there headphones...- tokyodan

Marantz HD-DAC1
FYI. I have the HD-DAC1. I love its sound. At the same I bought the Marantz I also bought a mobile player - the IBASSO DX-120, and let me tell you...it has that same Marantz sound. Some nights I will switch between the two and they sound so much alike that I can't tell any difference at all. So...- tokyodan

My DX120 shows firmware 2.4.56 but why don't I see that in the firmware downloads. I see 2.3.53 which came before and 2.4.59 which supposedly came after. Anyway....is it worth upgrading from my current 2.4.56 to the latest 2.5.68?- tokyodan

I got the DX-120 and I got the excellent Audio-Technica ATH-MSR7b that people are raving about. The DX-120 has a balanced output and my MSR7b has an extra balanced cable (with a 4.4mm male jack so I'd need a $40USD adaptor). Anyway i just wonder how much difference using this extra balanced...- tokyodan

Audio-Technica ATH-MSR7b Impressions & Discussion Thread
i just wonder how much difference these balanced cables really make. It is a real improvement that anyone can discern? Or is it a "I-think-I-can-hear-a-difference"... an imaginative, self-deception because you shelled out the money and want to believe the money wasn't wasted kind of difference?- tokyodan

Marantz HD-DAC1
It is stupid that Marantz doesn't sell the silver one in the USA. I hate it when companies make decisions like that. And I am surprised at the prices I've been seeing here. I paid 64,550 yen for it on Amazon Japan. That is about $603 USD. Wait... Look at this. I found a silver one (imported...- tokyodan
