[FiiO FD7/FDX] 12mm dynamic driver with its diaphragm using pure beryllium, with an outer-magnet field, up to 1.5 Tesla magnetic flux.
Look forward to it and sharing the opinions on here. I believe the cable would have an affect but we will only know when we get together. Suggest a time via PM. Either yours or mine or a spot in between. Regards Sceptre- Sceptre

I believe the construction to be the same save for 24k coating and some external bling. I think they have a different cable though with copper silver and gold. I'd expect the cable to have an effect on sound, and I also believe in the effect of burn in from personal experience. Regards Sceptre- Sceptre

Sennheiser IE800 IEM's
I have both the IE800 and P7. They are very different and have different uses for me. The IE800 is the better product in my opinion but if you prefer a quieter performance or don't mind teh size and weight of the P7 then they are about half the price - for a reason. If I had to...- Sceptre

I'm impressed with you going to see Little Dragon at your age. I saw them this summer but am 10 years younger than you. Many thanks for your comments and update. I have P5 S1 and P7 and will now go and try the P5 S2 from you comments. Many thanks from my wallet. Regards Sceptre- Sceptre

JH Audio Sirens Series Roxanne Impressions Thread
After just receiving my CF Custom Roxannes today (BF order!) I can start to post on this thread. I've owned JH13's since 2009 and I can say I'm happy about the treble being more present than I feared from others reviews. Fit feels great and listening to another Siren on my DX90 to Hugo...- Sceptre

Ultrasone Edition 12 announced in Japan
Hi all, I know this is an Ed12 thread but I have to defend the Ed10 a little. When I bought them they did sound terrible. I can fully see why Tyll responded the way he did. They were that bad.This sound 'imbalance' improved over the first 100 hours but was still v bad. I let others hear...- Sceptre

[Review] Sennheiser IE800: Impressions, Frustration and a bunch of What-Ifs
Bad news on the RCA800 I'm afraid. Although I saw teh pre production version some 15 months ago - it is not in production! You can make the Amperior cable work with a Nokia adaptor, or use the RSA800 without any volume control. Other than that, your option is to continue 'naked' as in...- Sceptre

Just Audio AHA-120 Appreciation Thread
I haven't done the comparison but am happy driving my JH13s with the AHA120. I don't feel the need to experiment with balanced. I'm sure my soon to arrive (yeah right) Roxanne's will also match well. Very happy for people to try out my AHA120 at a meet or nearby. Regards Sceptre- Sceptre

Bowers & Wilkins P7 - over the ear headphones
P7 wins best over ear headphone over at Toms Hardware http://www.tomsguide.com/us/best-headphones,review-1988.html I'd say that there are better products but maybe out of production or for a much higher price. Well done B&W. Sceptre- Sceptre

New JH Audio flagship! "Siren Series Roxanne"
Noticed the 'non mirroring' of the flying girl. Also noticed the use of blue and red for the serial number and product name info. This allows for a recognition of left or right without having differing artwork to achieve. I know you can work out the left / right by looking at the shape but...- Sceptre
