Schiit Midgard - Impressions Thread
I've been listening almost exclusively to the Midgard with HD650's for the last few days. I have a few other phones to try with it, but so far, the word I would use for the Midgard is "transparent" - the 650's sound fantastic with it on all genres I've listened to so far. I've been using the...- MrPanda

Schiit Midgard - Impressions Thread
I just received mine and in fifteen minutes of listening to HD650 over XLR, I'm impressed. More later after I get out a few more phones to try (Stellia, Clear MG, LCD-X, Atrium Open...)- MrPanda

How to contact Focal?
What's up with Focal service? I tried entering a ticket on their website, calling, writing to their US rep, no answer on anything. Very discouraging for any future purchases from them.- MrPanda

Your favorite sub-$1,000 closed-back headphones?
I think I'd see if there's a new or used ZMF in your price range to go with that Feliks... I really like Focal's, but they're not my first choice with an OTL...- MrPanda

Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]
I don't have a Cobalt, but I do have a DF Red, and either Mojo is better, but Mojo 2 will have terrific DSP functions like EQ and crossfeed, as well as a visible volume level. Mojo's also doesn't blast at 100% volume when the connection is dropped and reconnected, a problem that's prevented me...- MrPanda

Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]
I'm really enjoying the Mojo 2, which strikes me as just a little below Hugo 2 in resolution, but in some ways, better because of the easy to use DSP, which is remarkably transparent. The speed of the Mojo 2 makes it clean, fast, and articulate. It's my new office rig along with a DCA Aeon 2...- MrPanda

CanJam NYC 2022 Impressions Thread (February 26-27, 2022)
I was very impressed hearing the Dan Clark Stealth and Aeon Noire's with Centrance's powerhouse portables. I have a pair of the Aeon's myself and liked the lively presentation with the Centrance gear. I just got a Mojo 2 and like it with the Aeon Noir's also. The new Woo Fireflies were a...- MrPanda

LCD-X and XC Update
Hey Metal, I'm using the convolution eq under the Audeze presets in Roon DSP. There's another couple of options, one is for low latency, the other is a higher quality one - and I noted quite a difference between the two. The convolution seems fairly gentle, and I really haven't noticed...- MrPanda

LCD-X and XC Update
I just got the LCD-X 2021 and applied the Audeze supplied EQ to it in Roon. Jeepers, it strikes me as pretty close to the ideal as far as frequence balance. Anyone else tried this? I wonder what is in that preset....- MrPanda

Reply to review by 'MrPanda' on item 'HIFIMAN Arya'
Great review! I'm a fan of the baroque too. Would the Stealth Arya be a good "listening" headphone for detail? Better than say, something from the Audeze line of planars? I'm really interested in soundstage and detail, since I have other dynamics for genres that need some "slam". Thanks- MrPanda
