Shanling UA5 - Next step in our portable USB DAC/AMPs
Hello, can you please clarify how the volume control behave in the USB DAC mode? Is it possible on Apple device (Macbook Pro with Mac OS) to use the system volume control? Or is the volume "hardcoded" to use the mechanical wheel on device only? Thank you!- John Culter

AKG's New Flagship IEM - N5005
Well this is quite old post and hard to recall the comparison details :) If I remember well, I sold AKG N5005 quickly. They were neutral with boosted bass, but the Prophile-8 were superior in every aspect (sound and ergonomics too), when being priced similarly. If I recall correctly I had a...- John Culter

Sony WF-1000XM4 Impressions Thread
Someone able to compare latency to Apple Airpods Pro please? They are still far behind competition, despite being quite old already. Especially used with Apple Macbooks. The delay is so small, you can actually use them for work in FinalCut / Logic.. are WF-1000Xm4 on par, or still worse?- John Culter

New Inear Prophile-8
PP8 should be more analytical and true.. technically exposing all possible (good or bad) details in the music, no matter the genre. Lot of actual research was put into their development and tuning. Two switches also does wonders and you can slightly adjust them to your liking.- John Culter

64 Audio A18 Tzar (TM) Impressions Thread (Impressions, Reviews, Tours)
It is the same tuning, but with the universals you have the option to switch the tips and slightly EQ the sound. To my findings, usage of the foam tips is very close to the custom version. With silicone tips you get that mentioned sibilance.- John Culter

New Inear Prophile-8
Original creator / founder of PP8 said (think its also here in the early pages of this thread), that cable changes are not recommended. PP8 reference tuning was done using this particular factory cable. Any sort of cable change will result in different impedance and unwanted results, so the...- John Culter

Ortofon silicone eartips works best for me with PP8S. They are super soft compared to other quite stiff tips (especially Symbio). https://www.ortofon.com/silicone-eartips-p-732- John Culter

New Inear Prophile-8
No reason to change cable at all. No 'improvement' will happen, just unwanted equalisation, which destroy intended signature. Any sort of silicone tips will do the job - from my experience, for long listening sessions the best in terms of comfort (very soft) are Ortofon siicone tips ...- John Culter

@RHA Team do you have available any sort of sound signature description / measurement?
