What's the best online store to buy a Wiim device in Europe?

Sanders ESL Amp mkII, $4500 new. http://sanderssoundsystems.com/products/amplifiers/esl-mark-ii-amplifier

Audio Hungary Qualiton A20i

OK, here are my suggestions: Edit: If you need speaker crossfeed / stereo / headphone crossfeed symbols, just use the drawing for the speaker crossfeed, a couple of unconnected ears for stereo and for headphones put the outline of a head between the ears so it's in-head crossfeed.

Yes, they said Hugo2 will get a streamer companion before. I hope they add DSP / Room correction to that, there's no excuse to have a high end digital only product without it in 2020.

I prefer the symbols. But I think you can improve the reverb/bass enhancer symbols. You should invert the color scheme and make it matte white with black writing. There's a trend towards white things right now, and it also looks better when you have a lot of writing on the case like you do...

A price drop would be a bad idea. Launch a much better product and increase the price a bit, to keep your premium status. People will pay if the ownership experience is excellent. I'm guessing Qutest was a bigger sales success than 2qute, despite the price increase.

Consumers with a heart of gold, place your capital ! :) The rate each streaming service pays for a listen and how many plays an artist needs to make the US minimum wage (updated for early 2019), taken from Digital Music News.

Sounds like you need the Fluance Ai40 https://www.fluance.com/powered-2-0-bluetooth-active-5-inch-bookshelf-speakers-bamboo

If you care about how much money reaches the artist, Napster pays by far the best rate per stream.

I don't see Chord making a balanced Mojo2. They don't like balanced in principle and even Hugo2 doesn't have it. I don't see Mojo2 becoming a player either. Unlike hardware, software is hard for a small company.

I trust Chord to have the sound quality covered. What they are weak on is ergonomics/usability. I'd like to see: - field replaceable battery - well sorted USB-C fast charging - separate volume control for each output - input signal detect with auto-switch Bonus: - latest Bluetooth - desktop...

When USB4 hits and manufacturers can make higher power USB devices, this type of headphone amp will become so good it will make solid state desktop headphone amplifiers obsolete.

As I see it, there are two ways to do eq: 1. You make the device easy to use for the non-technical people (as in knobs for rumble, thump, punch, fullness, honk, whack, crunch, sibilance, definition, air etc. - each implemented to the best of your knowledge / dsp resources). Then you add global...

DX3 pro, it's AKM and it has a good headphone out and a remote. But the DX3 pro is on a much higher level than you Audioengine speakers, it deserves speakers like these: https://www.trustedreviews.com/reviews/acoustic-energy-ae1-active

RME gives you EQ to make your nasty superior device into an enjoyable inferior device. :D

Yes, it's 1W per channel on the DX3 pro. It's pretty powerful for a cheap all-in-one. You can connect almost anything to it (even your phone/tablet with bluetooth aptx hd) and switch between them with the remote (sadly no USB HID transport controls or direct access keys for each input on the...

1. The cheapest that comes to mind is the Topping DX3 pro for a bit over 200$. It also has a headphone amp that will probably make the Atom superfluous. :) 2. Buying noname / cheap is a false economy, when resale is taken into account you end up spending more money in the end. There are cheaper...

Options: 1. Replace your DAC with something that has a remote and digital volume control and use that when away from the headphone amp. 2. Insert a remote controlled preamp between the DAC and the headphone amp (Schiit Saga comes to mind, adds roll-able tube buffer for extra sound flavor).

My advice. Happy husband happy life

Wrong. Just the FPGA chip in the Qutest costs over twice as much as the whole Modi.

The RME is a much better buy but an all-in-one isn't what you asked for in this thread. And I still think the Qutest is a little better in pure SQ than the RME. As for the cringe factor, I understand. Owning a singlepower tube amp would make me cringe as well ... :D

The Qutest is just a small black box though. Nothing weird about it.

If you just want a simple, single ended high quality DAC, just get the Chord Qutest.

Good players like the Sony NW-A55 have nothing to worry about from phones. Phones have crappy battery life today as it is. As for phones like LG, try to use a high end full size headphone with it and the battery dies pronto. If a manufacturer was serious about making a phone into a workable...
