XDUoo XD05PRO
if the sound you want to hear is 100%, then the iems alone will make about 90% of this goal, while a source will give you probably the last 10% if anything. so usually it makes sense to invest the largest amount of the budget into the transducer and not so much into the source. at least thats...- sofastreamer

nah, i owned some of their players in the past and listened to even more and think ibasso has one of the most sophisticated architectures in their products and you hear it usually right from the start, its some special fidelity or refinement, that is hard to find elsewhere. probably also a...- sofastreamer

since you own the XD05 pro could you probably compare it to the dx180 regarding soundstage depth and layering please? I also got the xduoo and while i like its overall sound, it is massively lacking soundstage depth and layering compared to all my other gear, which is significantly cheaper (not...- sofastreamer

do i understand correctly, that you can use the mub1 as an usb dac connected to a pc and bypass loading the battery of the mub1? if so, will the battery not be used in this configuration or will it drown its own battery? Any known issues when used as an LDAC and/or APTX HD reciever? Stable...- sofastreamer

Audeze SINE Series
even tho i seem to be the only one who loves the Sine with its stock pads for comfort and sound, i have finally found a decent replacement in the aftermarket pads for the Beyerdynamic DT231. You might need to strech the rubber part that slips behind the mount, but it isnt a problem at all. the...- sofastreamer

awesome! I searched the thread and wonder why no one is freaking out by the crosstalk measurements. Even player that cost at least 2k or more struggle to reach those numbers. In fact most daps under 1k dont even reach the crosstalk of the dx180 single ended output on their balanced ones. Sure...- sofastreamer

would it be possible to replace the opas for the Sparkos ss3602 dual discretes? would be quite expensive as it takes four of them, but would they fit including closing the amp?- sofastreamer

Astell&Kern Launches KANN Ultra DAP and AK HB1 Bluetooth Amp/DAC
how does the Kann Ultra perform regarding soundstage? Specially depth and tallness as well as layering? Is it anywhere near sth like the XD05 pro, which even in stock has well percieved depth and displays the instruments/sounds also vertically well defined. Additionally it has very good layering...- sofastreamer

Reply to review by 'sofastreamer' on item 'FiiO M23'
sadly even the desktop k9 akm has a very mediocre soundstage at best because of the THX amps they use everywhere. Specially in depth and layering it falls noticebly short behind many class A or descrete opa output sections. So the m23 will only be "desktop level" when compared within Fiios own...- sofastreamer

Best portable Bluetooth Dac Amp 2024?
meanwhile the best money no issue portable bt dac amp is probably the Questyle CMA 18 portable. only thing that pulled me away from buying it is, that you cannot bypass the battery when connected to a power source. this way the built in battery would die too fast for the price of the unit, at...- sofastreamer

not to forget the ES100 mk2 came out years before the btr15, weighs almost half as much as the btr15 and it has a very good clip already built in, while you have to add the mediocre clip case to the weight of the fiio. all in all you get much longer battery runtime, a smaller and lighter...- sofastreamer

...lightest! this goes to the Radsone EarStudio ES100 MK2, which is 2,5 x 5,1 x 1,3 cm / 20 g , including a good clip, while you have to add the mediocre clipcase of the ifi to weight and size of the go blu! The ES100 also has much longer battery life and before you ask again, f*ck capital letters!- sofastreamer
