New listening impressions of Stax C32 prototype and Shipping SR-009
^ If you have the money, definitely grab a pair. After I heard the 007s, I wasn't too excited about the 009s - the 007s were more technical then orthos, but really not "king" of headphones overall. I could put down the 007s after an hour or a few songs and be much more than content moving on...- EphemeralHope

Monster Turbine Challenge - Reviewers Wanted!
A go-to portable IEM is very important to me. I've been looking for an IEM that I can grab over my customs when I need the isolation (quite frequently). I own the Monster Turbines(regular) + MDs. I've been looking to try out the COPPERS because I would prefer a more neutral sound than the MDs...- EphemeralHope

looking for 1000$ price range headphone recommendations
hey mate, I recommend picking up a used pair of Ultrasone edition 8s (these look legit imo). They are closed can design unlike the ones you mention which are open design..... these leak music through and through. There's pretty much no way to listen to these portably. The ED8s might run 1k-1.2k...- EphemeralHope

Recommend New DAC under 3k? (Reference 7 vs Weiss DAC2 vs WYR DAC2, etc etc)
Hey coolcat, could you describe the edition 10s to me in more detail? For retail price, they are the most expensive out of all the current top-end headphones. Even if the pad problem is fixed, is the performance truly better(in at least most) aspects to the competiton? The LCD-2s really seem to...- EphemeralHope

Recommend New DAC under 3k? (Reference 7 vs Weiss DAC2 vs WYR DAC2, etc etc)
Hm, there seems to be a lot to consider. Thanks Currawong, I'll try the new Weiss DAC202 for now since I've heard some good reviews about it! As for headphones, I haven't auditioned any of the latest generation (LCD2, HE6) so will definitely pick one up for some listening. More of a speaker...- EphemeralHope

Hi guys, so the time to to upgrade DACs has come again. Could anyone with experience of multiple DACs in the price range compare and contrast for me? Also, looking to buy an amp, so built in combos <4k can also be discussed. I'm very interested in how the previous standards such as the Weiss...- EphemeralHope

Alternatives to M2Tech?
Looking for something ranging from 200-300 that can act as a transport. I don't like the clock controversy going around with m2tech and evo is a bit out of my price range. I've already tried the musiland 02 and while it is pretty good, I was wondering if there was something better around my...- EphemeralHope

What's better than an ipod touch?
Itouch isn't made for SQ. Other devices don't have the useful features of an Itouch... Solution? Get an iphone 4 + hifiman. Each for their own purposes :). It all depends on how much you need your itouch. Though I plan to get the 4th gen Itouch + alrdy have an Ipad... I can see why...- EphemeralHope
