Tidal Connect > WiiM Pro Plus (Coax) > E70V > A90D > TGXear Tantalus Mids focused, highly resolving, excellent timbre - the Tantalus are excatly the right gear for an acoustic gem like this one, which i stumbled upon pretty much accidentally.- Uebelkraehe

ONIX Alpha XI1 - Smallest & Most Affordable ONIX DAC - High-Power Portable USB DAC/AMP
Got mine from Hifigo and first impressions are very positive. I'm just listening to "Painless" from Nilüfer Yanya, an album i love and know very well and this sounds not at all like it's just an emergency solution. Layering and especialy detail immediately stand out. I've read somewhere in this...- Uebelkraehe

For those of us with multiple headphones, which ones are you listening with now?
Tidal > E70V > A90D > Moondrop S8 Really shouldn't neglect the S8 so much, they still offer a finely balanced and highly detailed sound. Not the most "obviously fun" IEM, but rather honest to a fault. Good recordings are in exchange allowed to shine. Johnny Blue Skies - Passage Du Desir- Uebelkraehe

CanJam London 2024 (July 20-21, 2024)
Afaik Quick left DCS years ago. But let's not turn this into a witch hunt anyways, the important thing is to make clear to DCS and other companies that this kind of behaviour is unacceptable and bad for business.- Uebelkraehe

THE WATERCOOLER HEADPHONE EDITION – Headphones, Amps, DACs, and desktop/home audio related – a freewheeling discussion of gear, impressions, music, and musings.
Meh, a VP can be pretty much anything from glorified staffer to leading the company for all intents and purposes, but i'm not privy to DCS's formal and/or informal corporate structure, so you might be right. Anyways, extremely bad look from DCS and a very obvious stupid idea.- Uebelkraehe

That VP guy seems to be on a very ill advised personal crusade and DCS isn't better in supporting it.- Uebelkraehe

Tidal connect > WiiM Pro Plus (Coaxial) > E70V > A90D > Hifiman Edition XS Kind of funny, after some intial enthusiasm i couldn't really get into the Edition XS, some treble spicyness and timbre problems kept me from enjoying them so they were mostly lying around gathering dust.

Meze Audio ALBA - A Light in The Shape of Sound
So was there a recall or not? My dealer certainly made it seem like that was the reason he couldn't deliver despite of their website stating something else when i ordered. Anyways, seems like a giant f up for Meze, they'll probably lose a lot of sales as the Alba won't nearly be as hot anymore...- Uebelkraehe

Holo Audio Cyan 2 DAC
Not ideal, indeed. I'll think about this a bit more before i do anything, especially since i'm in principle quite happy with my chain right now, all my headphones seem to have gotten an upgrade with the addition of the WiiM (or probably rather the substraction of my PC...). But it always could...- Uebelkraehe

Holo Audio Cyan 2 DAC
Yes, less than optimal either way, especially since going to a dedicated streamer, even one as cheap as the WiiM, resulted in very audible improvement. Kind of unfortunate that coaxial and optical inputs on the Cyan 2 apparently aren't up to par with USB.- Uebelkraehe

Holo Audio Cyan 2 DAC
So, having been tempted to try R2R for some time now i'm very much attracted by the Cyan 2. However, i do already have a Burson Composer 3 Reference and a Topping E70 Velvet on hand. Realistically, with my primary amps being an A90 D and the amp of the C3R, can i expect a palable improvment or...- Uebelkraehe
