JM Audio Editions XTC Headphones
Gave another shot at a JM Audio review. John modded some Hifiman R7 with Beryllium drivers and other changes. Plastic cup XTC 1.5's more or less. moved to https://www.head-fi.org/showcase/hifiman-r7dx-jm-edition-mod.25920/reviews- eugene2

The Burson Soloist Voyager! The sexy new flagship Headphone Amp / Preamp - Pure Class-A, 10 Watts XLR
I decided to have a little fun while writing a comparison I made while auditioning an IFI ICan Phantom I almost purchased. My musings: In the realms of the audibly divine, where serendipity serenades the seekers of sonic sanctity, I found fortune smiling upon me not once, but twice, bestowing...- eugene2

JM Audio Editions XTC Headphones
100% agree with these comments. Music is an experience that is personal. No one can tell you what sounds good to you. You can be in a room with people clapping to music and see some folks clapping off beat or singing out of key. A musician can be playing sharp or flat and it can go...- eugene2

The Burson Soloist Voyager! The sexy new flagship Headphone Amp / Preamp - Pure Class-A, 10 Watts XLR
I wrote some impressions after comparing my Voyager to the IFI Phantom a person was trying to sell to me. As usual I went on and on in my notes. I'm trying to edit it down today. We used the Playback Designs Dac and the Gold Note DS 10 Plus and EVO power supply. Previously used the Sonnet...- eugene2

Burson Soloist 3X Grand Tourer Head Amp/Pre Amp w/Sub out - 10W XLR
I agree it is noiseless and really works well with my ZMF Atrium and Hifiman He1000Se. To be honest I've been switching out amps and Dacs like crazy over the past year and finally more than satisfied with my current system- eugene2

Hifiman HE1000-SE
The treble may be slightly smoother as stated by Zach on the perf lambskin, I have to listen more as I could not detect much difference. I ordered the Dekoni haven't received them yet, was told they come with a small plastic lever to remove the pads? Do not use any sharp tools as the wood may...- eugene2

Hifiman HE1000-SE
From my short listen last night, the comfort level is very good. Bass seems more prominent while mids take on greater clarity and may be slightly more forward. You have to make sure all clips are attached and there are no gaps. The only thing I don’t like is Dekoni gives you the proper...- eugene2

iFi audio iCAN Phantom - Vanish into the music!
We didn’t see that using the playback design Dac but if that’s what you heard with your ears super. Both are excellent amplifiers the IFi is much more versatile, but they’re both very clean and both have well defined bass. XBass helps with bass power, I find with upright bass it changes...- eugene2

iFi audio iCAN Phantom - Vanish into the music!
From a versatility standpoint or through specific testing and measurement with the Susvara? Especially versus the Voyager or is that speculation, the Voyager cannot be used with electrostatics but is an extremely good amplifier. I'm just wondering as I have the opportunity to purchase a Phantom.- eugene2

Hifiman HE1000-SE
Equipment should be a great consideration when discussing how headphones/speakers sound. For example peaks can be exacerbated by the equipment feeding the transducer. Tubes versus transisters, r2r dac versus delta sigma. I use a both with my Burson Voyager and Schiit Midgard. I think the...- eugene2
