whilst I have not heard the A90 but if it's anything like the thx amps then sibilance and flat sounding seem to be the right words describing the amp. 6xx is one of the warmer headphones and I've personally not had issues with it on even the harsher more clinical amps. I'd suggest keeping the...

same, no matter how much AC I turn on, leather pads are a no go for me

I have and reported it, it kind of went away when I switched it off n left it off for 30 mins. It hasn’t happened again so far

Actually I was told the auteur ltd was coming out in a mth or so back in March and given the last bath of stabilised wood were sold they should be releasing it soon. I couldn’t wait and went for the ambrosia maple tho with steel rods. Part of the excitement is you don’t know exactly what you are...

I have both on my desk currently, and tbh we are not really comparing apples to apples. since one is OTL tube amp and the other SS amp with a small SMPS. Having said that, ACP+ does have that euphoric almost tube like sound signature and its much cheaper and easier to build (the resistor...

May I ask if those are stock tubes? cos they look different to the website ones. I will be recieving mine on Thursday, cant wait.

Yea I doubt there's a cause of the issue, I did switch the amp off and turn the volume knob all the way a few times and turn it back on again it seems to work fine again. Having said that its somewhat discomforting they arent using the components as advertised on the website, but I wouldnt think...

TBH the SE out works perfect and sounds good as well, but I kind of got the FA-12 for the Bal output, I have emailed them , lets hope vitality come back with a fix for it.

you are kidding right....? a month!? i waited for 2 mths, and only used it for 3 days ... i dont wanna wait another month... :(

received the FA-12 for a few days , and left channel on the Bal output suddenly gone. I have contacted Flux, has anyone else experienced this? fwiw, the sound of the amp is phenomenal before one channel went dead, SE output still works im enjoying that for now...

I literally asked Zach directly this question of similar nature, I hope he doesn't mind me sharing "I have watched your video recommending the Mohawk penthouse and in Hong Kong I have reached out to distributor here they don’t have that and only have the Mohawk Bristol cream polish M810-2004...

I noticed ZMF is these DIY Cable packs, and as a ZMF fan I jumped on to ordering one without built a cable before... I have done a few DIY head amp projects and have all the tools to assemble one I believe, but has anyone purchased and built one of these and can shed some light? zmf did...

Sure i'll definitely come back on it once I receive the FA-12. But just specs wise FA-12 is more powerful and its balanced, I think comparing FA-12S with Whammy is more apple to apple, and there the Whammy uses OP amp vs FA's discrete. I do love the Whammy but unless you are very confident on...

Great, I just received shipping notification of FA-12, and heres a new version. :(

Congrats, I emailed up Vitality last week and he said mine should be shipped end of this week. Needless to say im checking my emails on an hourly basis.... painful

Respect, do u eq your lcd hps?

does the EQed old LCD X sound that good you got the new X as well? if you have both around would love to hear your impressions of OLD no eq vs NEW no eq and old eq vs new no eq.

Im pretty happy they finally came out with sth which is not "EQ required but EQ optional" quoting Resolve. But I hope they've learnt their lesson from the feedback here in terms of better communication with customers ...

Fellow Arya owners, I asked this ques earlier in the thread but think it fell through the cracks, so sorry have to ask again if anyone can help. Arya stock cable 3.5mm TRS. are there any issues to use 3.5mm TS (one ring on the plug instead of two) just like the Focal connectors. I have tried...

Not sure why you would backdate tell people there's a huge revision. I'd understand if u do a silent revision or tell u in advance, just doesn't make logical sense

Ha! A mounted Hugo 2! Nice one. With the FA-10, kind of makes the 887 redundant?

Thanks @mikecheck95 , yea i understand BF2 is not a MQA decoder, but I think if not on exclusive mode, it can only spit out 44.1k and with exclusive mode on it can get to 88.2K. good to know roon is a workaround, but i basically use tidal only and I dont really have a flac library to justify...

I am always curious about audeze HP's but have never owned one. Whilst i'd like to try EQ, my main setup is PC , tidal , BF2, and amp, and i realised that PC doesnt spit out the higher res or MQA unless on "exclusive mode" on the Tidal app, which means it bypasses equaliser APO. Is there anyway...

Let us know what you think on the auteur. Personally I didn't like my VC with it for some reason I'm not really sure why. I do have an Auteur coming my way so hopefully it's good with the crack

I own both. At first I thought the treble was a bit too bright and almost sibilant with certain recordings, but idk if it's my brain burnt in or the headphones burnt in. It sort of became a bit more tame and honestly I love it. For me I think they are good compliments of each other, given the...
