FREE SHIPPING IN AUSTRALIA The TT2 probably needs no introduction here. It's one of the very best DACs on the market at any price. In fact, the only DAC I've found so far that can best it is the Chord DAVE and that's the reason I'm selling the TT2 - to buy a DAVE. HUGO TT 2 – SPECIFICATIONS...

Thank you. I think I read elsewhere that it was SPC and hadn't checked (or I mis-remembered what I read)

I'm writing up my review notes for the CODE 24 / CODE 24C video and it's doing my head in! I've done all listening tests with the FiR Audio Radon 6 CIEM and I really like both cables, but the CODE 24C is the one I keep coming back to as my favourite, even with the Fusion 1 in the mix. The...

It's high on clarity and I personally find that makes cables less enjoyable for longer term listening. To my ears, it makes most IEMs, that aren't a darker initial tuning, too fatiguing. That said, it does work well on something like my old OG Noble Kaiser 10s.

I've just received the CODE 24 & CODE 24C today for review (thank you @JordonEA ) I'm almost always a pure copper guy with the exception being the Fusion 1, but the CODE 24 is really impressing with its ability to bring some extra clarity without getting harsh or fatiguing like most SPC cables...

Great to deal with. Prompt communication and decision making. Recommended trading partner :)

They're VERY close in performance. The M17 has a bit more attack and texture to its sound, but it's fairly subtle. The Mojo 2 has a more natural tonal quality and an easier (not richer) delivery across the board, but has a slightly lower sense of resolution due to the M17 characteristics...

The FiiO M17 is an absolute beast of a device in every way. I traded for this one to give it a listen , but it was a bit impulsive of me in some ways because I really don't need a device of this type given that I don't commute regularly and already have the Mojo 2 & Poly for around the house...

Nicely explained! I completely agree. The imaging and separation from the Ares S X Cadmus is fantastic

I've got the Christmas cable here for review and will drop a video on the same day it's released for sale, but here are some early impressions: It's a beautiful looking and feeling cable (as we're used to from EA). The copper/silver combination always looks wonderful. The influence it brings is...

This is an epic headphone amp able to produce 20W into a 30 ohm load, but it has a brilliant volume control that can keep all that power in hand for more sensitive headphones. Sound is generally smooth, but detailed, agile/articulate and with excellent presence and authority. There's a great...

I reviewed this one a while back now and it's a brilliant device that performs as well as the EverSolo DMP-A6 in many ways, but also offers the ability to act as a digital-to-digital converter, runs all outputs concurrently so you can run multiple DACs from it without switching the outputs all...

I adore these IEMs! They are the very best IEM I have owned and the only reason for the sale is that I no longer commute and I need to fund another purchase to create a specific content piece for my YouTube channel. All components (energiser, IEMs, case) are in excellent condition. They don't...

Thanks for double-checking. Hadn't thought about Parallel being truncated. It looked like Active G took up the same amount of space, but maybe it's a character limit rather than a space limit as such

Thanks for this. That's actually a really good point. Now that you mention it, I've got similarly spec'ed IEMs where some hiss and some don't too.

@project86 I've been struggling overnight to come to terms with your experience of not hearing hiss when connecting your U18ts to the Silver Fox. I've got a pair of Soundz Avant IEMs in for review and they have similar sensitivity and higher impedance, but they sound like you're standing next to...

Thank you for saying this. I'm forever pushing back on this and also the more general belief that planars need more power because they're planars when it's often dynamic driver headphones with high impedance swings that present more difficult loads than a moderately sensitive planar with it's...

Brilliant - thanks for the info

I just picked up a Silver Fox secondhand and I'm very impressed! Here are some thoughts I just typed out for the original owner while we were chatting about the amp: I am a huge fan of the Enleum AMP-23R - it has a sound that I find engaging and enjoyable, but the Silver Fox, to my ears, goes...

Yeah - definitely strange given that it happened across two different other amps connected downstream (Enleum AMP-23R and SPL Phonitor XE)

I removed the HM-1 entirely from my desk last night for some B-roll footage and have re-inserted it this morning with no such problems as previously. I can only assume that I had a loose interconnect or poor contact somewhere that was enough to cause problems when the input impedance reduced...

Part 1 is correct. I'll have to check the pre-amp toggle

Running TT2 in DAC mode so 2V via RCA IIRC. No issues with the DAC connected directly to the HM-1 only and not using pass through. The distortion occurs on both amps once the HM-1 is in the chain, but either amp on its own is fine (i.e. with no splitting or pass through of the cables) Gain on...
