Official Sony WF-1000XM3 Thread - Noise Cancelling True Wireless Earphones
So let me get this right, if these are not good enough for a plane ride, they suck? Well, I just got mine and comparing them to my full size Sonys, the ANC is not as good, but I wasn’t expecting it to be. Having said that, they are more than good enough for my daily subway commute. They probably...- oopsydaisy

So far so good. You definitely need to try different headband settings to get the right fit- oopsydaisy

Sony 1000x mark ii - huzzah!
Just picked up a pair of these. Initial impressions after 1 way of my daily commute are pretty good. I tweaked an EQ @jasonb posted earlier in thread and mostly satisfied with it. I’m using mine with iPhone 7 AAC with mostly AAC files. At first, comfort wasn’t great, but I loosened headband a...- oopsydaisy

Sony 1000x mark ii - huzzah!
Here is the EQ I've been using. I'm curious, what app is this? Interesting that it has an Atmos mode. Would assume it might be helpful when watching movies.- oopsydaisy

FiiO Q5, Flagship DAC/Amp, an Dual DAC, USB/Optical/Coaxial/Line in, share the same amp module with X7.
Excuse my ignorance and sorry if this has been discussed before. If I wanted to go fully wireless with say my iPhone, the Q5 and Sennheiser HD1s, is this possible? Or could I stack the iPhone and Q5 and connect wirelessly to the Q5 with the HD1s?- oopsydaisy

This is unacceptable in 2018. While there are still way more windows users out there, there are many Mac users as well. Not to mention, this device is meant to work with Apple devices, wouldn’t it make sense to be able to upgrade from Apple’s desktop/laptop OS? You guys need to hire an Apple...- oopsydaisy

FiiO Q5, Flagship DAC/Amp, an Dual DAC, USB/Optical/Coaxial/Line in, share the same amp module with X7.
I’ve had my Q5 for about a week now and just wanted to give my impressions so far. I tried it with my SE535s (Red), Edition 8, and LCD-2 (Rev 2). I’ve tried both Bluetooth and wired to my iPhone 7 with lightning cable. Both connections sound pretty similar, IMO. I’m playing mostly ALAC files, so...- oopsydaisy

I have my Q5 connected via BT and don’t see a Q5 option in settings in Fiio app. Am I missing something? BTW, it seems this app is not compatible with iPad? Fix this please. I often edit photos on my iPad and it would be nice to have same settings available without my phone.- oopsydaisy

Warm mFi Dac/Amp?
Hey, guys. It's been a long time since I've posted. I've been checking out this section for a while, looking for a slightly warm dac/amp for use with iOS devices that has decent power single ended and has mFi certification so I don't have to mess around with messy dongles. I've tried the Mojo...- oopsydaisy

Audeze iSINE 10 & iSINE 20: Audeze releases two new IEM planar magnetic earphones
Has anyone tried Shure rubber tips with the 20s? I use the medium ones with my SE535s and get a good seal. Would they fit the 20s? Thanks in advance- oopsydaisy

PONO - Neil Youngs portable hi-res music player
I just received my LE Foo Fighters Pono this week. So far I've tried it with my Shure SE535LTDs and my Ultrasone Edition 8s. I find the treble a bit harsh, but I'm hoping with time that it will smooth out some. Prior to the Pono, I had been using an iPod classic with a TTVJ Slim amp/dac with the...- oopsydaisy

Universal IEM for best midrange(vocals) w/removable cables budget $600
I've used my TTVJ Slim with many headphones and haven't heard any hiss, so I'd guess it's the F111s. Whoever gets that Slim will be very happy indeed. Good luck on the sale. Since I'm not getting rid of my Slim anytime soon, I'll have to cross the F111s off my list. Thanks for the...- oopsydaisy

Thanks for the info. Email out to Aurisonics as well. Since I have a few weeks or so before I place an order, I can wait for info via email. Right now, lead choices are ASG-2, V6 and Heir 5.0.

Thanks for your reply. I'll look into some of your recommendations. So far, the RE600s are out because they don't have replaceable cables and I just can't deal with that anymore. I've seen many people with Westones on this site, so I'll give them a close look although I'm not sure if they have...- oopsydaisy
