    Fake Shure SE535 earphones

    TThanks for the answer. I do not care so much about the warranty, it is worth the risk, but getting fakes is a risk I cannot take! Maybe I just buy the SE 425 new from Amazon for the same money. I am not too sure I would tell the difference. Do you know?

    Fake Shure SE535 earphones

    Hi, do you think you can get fake SE535 special red edition in a box? Here in Spain I see a couple of guys selling those around 300 USD in their original unopened box. Unfortunately they are quite far away from me and I would have to pay before receiving and seeing the stuff. thanks Vlad

    Android phones and USB DACs

    I don't know, possibly not, but I don't believe in the ability to tell the difference. I am happy enough with CD quality of a good recording.

    Android phones and USB DACs

    I have bought a Motorola Moto g4 Play and it works perfectly with the Sony PHA-1A. Just plug it into the micro USB 0 of the DAC using the cable provided in the box and enjoy. I used to have a cheap phone before (Doogee) which worked fine with a TEAC but nothing else. The G4 Play is cheap...

    Hello, I just did the same (g4 play) and it worked immediately. Bye bye cheap phones. The g4 play is not that expensive and as I use it exclusively as music player (with Tidal and Deezer), it seems fine for me. Considering the time spent on getting the doogee to accept a DAC (apart from the...

    The fix I gave you failed to work tonight. It is clear that there is no pleasure with the pain it takes to make it work. I am going to return my DAC and get one that I know works with my Doogee. I hope the higher end android work better!

    Good online shop for cables in the US or retail in Manhattan?

    Hi friends,   I am travelling to the US in two weeks and I wondered if there is a good online shop to buy interconnect RCA cables that I could have delivered there before I arrive. I often have the impression that Hifi can be much cheaper in the US. I have no issue buying second hand. I am...
