Blon in ear monitors impressions thread
Well with my setup I'm not getting a narrow soundstage. Maybe that's using balanced and a very clean dap. What I get is engagement with the composition. That gives me good communication so I'm able to enjoy and respond to what the musicians are doing as a whole. Every part of the song comes...- dan

Blon in ear monitors impressions thread
I want to through out a source suggestion for the 03 I've been happy with. See the thorn twist in your side The Fiio BTR5 with a 2.5 balanced cable. It's another component that is hitting well above its pricepoint, although repeating out of stock popularity has caused sellers to pump the price...- dan

[FiiO BTR15/BTR5 2021/BTR5]Bluetooth DAC and Headphone Amplifier Discussion & Impressions Thread
I think not. This is more likely retailers responding to demand that has been repeatedly running through their stock. I was able to get my seller to match the 109. I paid for mine at the beginning of the year on a reorder for 2 more as gifts. 139 on Aliexpress.- dan

Blon in ear monitors impressions thread
Cables at this level of iem(BL-03) may be a choice with limited positive enhancement. I use a 16 core silver plated cable this Tripowin Zonie for $16. I'm using it with the 2.5 balanced end. This gets me more output power from the BTR5 DAC then when using a 3.5 unbalanced cable. I like how that...- dan

I'm agreeing with those using the BTR5 with a 2.5 balanced cable. $16 for the Tripowin Zonie I'm using. Foams until I find better. I watched the world float to the dark side of the moon. The soundstage is wide. I ain't blind and I don't think I like the things I see. Instruments distinct. I...- dan

[FiiO BTR15/BTR5 2021/BTR5]Bluetooth DAC and Headphone Amplifier Discussion & Impressions Thread
Has he lost his mind? Can he see or is he blind? The BTR5 makes BLON BL-03s fun when using balanced 2.5. They respond to the added output on low and the widened soundstage. Keeping them. Golden slumbers fill your eyes. Good bass emphasis. I look at you all, see the love that's there sleeping...- dan

[FiiO BTR15/BTR5 2021/BTR5]Bluetooth DAC and Headphone Amplifier Discussion & Impressions Thread
Now that I'm home things should be much better. I'm fully enjoying the BTR5 with 2.5 Tripowin cables for my TRMS 4 Pros. Super wide sound stage. Like I'm with the guys on stage. Zonie 16 Core. Waiting for the break of day. Very good separation. Tired of lying in the sunshine.- dan

Comply vs Spiral Dot vs SpinFit
I'm having a good fit and better sound than Spinfits from a mod of Starlines developed by Slater at audioreviews.org. https://www.audioreviews.org/reversing-starlines/ Many thanks to Slater. Very soft and the wider bore doesn't muddy the highs like Spinfit 145 and 155 do for me. I haven't...- dan
