HiFiMan Susvara
I am a bit baffled by this experience, because, while I have also received my Susvara back from repair at HFM recently in a box that looks exactly like the one pictured here, I was forewarned in advance by HFM *not* to return the original box nor any accompanying default accessories with the...- sahmen

Violectric V222 and V202
Does the V222 innately lack a wide or deep enough airy soundstage as suggested in some posts or is the question of soundstage size source- and/or chain-dependent. I am also counting on using the BiFrost 2/64 connected to the V222 in balanced mode, and all my hps connect to my amps in balanced mode.- sahmen

Schiit Yggdrasil Impressions thread
So I have the Yggy OG/A2 with Unison and the updated fully modular chassis. How might the MIB compare with it in sonic performance? I'm not planning on replacing it, although I am very curious about the MIB and how it might sound as compared with the OG/A2- sahmen

Violectric V222 and V202
In terms of performance, would someone speak to how the V222 might stack up against the Singxer S-A1, for example? I am considering the 222 for use in my study. I've used the V281 before, but it might be too "overkill" for my study. BTW, the V222 may be paired with a Schiit Bifrost 2/64.- sahmen

Hifiman HE1000-SE
The Abyss 1266 TC? (I'm tempted to say "definitely), and maybe the LCD-5, but I have to audition this with the HeKSE in order to be sure. I do not expect the differences to be too dramatic in either case, as far as detail retrieval goes. But out of these three, my preference is definitely the...- sahmen

Hifiman HE1000-SE
Did the tuning of this Headphone get tweaked or revised in any way in the course of the past three years? I repurchased it after three years of being without my first one, and whie I still love how it sounds, and what it does, I seem to remember that the earlier version I had used to sound more...- sahmen

Singxer SU-6
About USB cables : The need to connect one's source to the SU-6 with a USB cable would seem to suggest that it is wise to choose that cable with care, unless the SU-6 has the power to neutralize the flaws of any USB cable, which I doubt very much. With that said, is there some consensus on this...- sahmen

Cen.Grand 9i-906 "Silver Fox"
I have never messed with any of the settings on either amp, because the default stock settings seem to work very well for the headphones I have "as-is," and I am not into doing a lot of tweaking at the level of the amps as a rule. I could be missing something by following this...- sahmen

HiFiMan Susvara
Yep it did for me just earlier this week, although one usually have to be patient with it, because sometimes it seems automated to interface with other numbers and can act funny that way before someone eventually answers it, i.e. if they decide to, as opposed to letting it go to some dead-end...- sahmen

Cen.Grand 9i-906 "Silver Fox"
BTW, I have been listening to the Abyss 1266 TC too on the Big Silver Fox, and I must say, since not many folks seem to be mentioning it on this thread, that it sounds particularly spectacular to my ears for the types of acoustic and avant-garde jazz--not to mention the classical music--I...- sahmen

Pathos Inpol Ear Headphone Amplifier
I would like to know about the difference the HiDac card makes with the sound production of this amp.

Cen.Grand 9i-906 "Silver Fox"
These questions are quite narrowly targeted at a specific area of the Susvara's performance with the Fox, so it will require a correspondingly controlled session of auditioning in order to be addressed properly, which I cannot do because my Susvara is not with me at the moment, I should be able...- sahmen
