    HD650 properly amped good?

    as @mitchb says, the 650's do scale nicely. There are limits to what they could ever do but they have more runway than a lot of people might expect. Long Story: I did the typical 650 + Schiit Jotunheim XLR test after Zeos went on and on about how it opens things up. Since then Ive built out a...

    Cheap true wireless iem

    It's not exactly neutral but Soundcore Liberty Neo is one of the best deals in tws i think, IF utility/practicality matter to you. Usually on sale for 35 or so on amazon, great battery life, ipx7, wont break your heart if you lose them. Not 'neutral' or 'reference' though, if thats what you're...

    i have Andro 2020s and am looking at the same shift to u12t. I basically am looking for "Andro 2020...but with good bass dynamics and sub-bass". Curious what you were looking for in the u12t, and if this tracks with what you've experienced!

    Advice: Andromeda 2020 but with BASSSSSSSS

    I recently purchased 2 kilobuck-ish (*ish) range iems: Andromeda 2020 and Thieaudio Clairvoyance. Clairvoiyance i was hoping would be a maybe slightly less technical but much punchier and 'fun' iem...they turned out to be shockingly disappointing in the bass end for me however. The most ba-ish...

    I've owned AFCs, now A2N, and love them dearly...a massive improvement over the AFC. That said, the feature in the Stealth I keep fixating on oddly is the elastic suspension strap mechanism, which seems like such a QoL improvement! I hope this doesn't trickle down into the rest of the Aeon...

    SR225 comfort dilemma...replace the pads, or replace the phones?

      Hi All, I'm a newcomer to this daunting obsession...already noticing the heart wrenching push/pull decisions with quality headphones and their equipment...so here's my issue:   The SR-225's, and their comfort (or discomfort, rather):   I purchased these after having realized that...

    Review by 'Zander024' on item 'Grado SR225i Headphones'

    I purchased these after having realized that I'm not a big fan of the Sennheiser soundstage. I was looking at he HD595's, but similarly to the 555's, I found them to be a little too broad of a sound for me, without picking up on detail. I heard Grado's prominent mids and respectable high's would...
