Tempted to get a 300B from Glenn. For those of you who has an Abyss Phi and the 300B, how is the pairing? I don’t mind giving up a bit of slam for sweeter mids- blackrain139

Best Stax for EDM/bass performance?
If you can get a good price on a KGSSHV Carbon or even a regular KGSSHV, go for it and don't look back. I've tried quite a large range of Stax amps in a local store and the KGSSHV smokes them all.- blackrain139

Best Stax for EDM/bass performance?
I'm running this setup for EDM listening on a Stax Dave -> KGSSHV Carbon -> 007 mk II It's surprising to me but I enjoy EDM on this setup just as much as the Abyss Phis- blackrain139

Chord Electronics - Hugo 2 - The Official Thread
I'm not sure if anyone has asked this before but I can't seem to get Hugo2 to enter into desktop mode From what I understand, if Hugo2 is charged non stop for 24 hours, it enters into desktop mode and the power button light should be purple. My Hugo2 is now at 48 hours of non-stop charge. When...- blackrain139

Headphone/Amp/Dac Recommendation for an EDM/Trance Listener (Mainly in Office)
For EDM/ Trance/Techo, these are my personal preferred cans 1. Abyss Phi 2. Focal Elears 3. JVC SZ2000/Fostex TH900 4. LCD2/3 I prioritize bass slam, dynamism for such genres. If your budget is under 500, you can try the JVCsz2000. It doesn't have the dynamism of the other cans in the list...- blackrain139

Tidal vs Spotify
I've always preferred Spotify's UI and music recommendations but I signed up for Tidal as well primary because of lossless playback. If Spotify does offer lossless in future, I would cancel Tidal in a heartbeat.- blackrain139

Confused about DAC
If you're tempted to get a DAC and avoid using the soundcard, instead of the Valhalla, you could also opt for the Magni/Modi stack. It doesn't cost a lot and it's a great entry level setup.- blackrain139

Why is a new DAP different and better than an IPOD?
New DAPs have better DAC implementation and with amp sections that provide more power. Depending on the IEMs you use, you will see marked SQ improvements.- blackrain139

Recently bought the 8 wire 18gauge Toxic Venom from a friend and I'm loving it. A full bodied sounding silver cable with excellent extension, improved clarity and soundstage. To top it off, it's light and flexible so it makes it a joy to handle.- blackrain139
