Looking forward to your impressions

Can anyone comment on the sound quality of the Hiby W3 relative to the Fiio BTR3K? I tried out a Fiio BTR3K and the Qudelix with my UERM IEMs and found that the BTR3K sounded too warm, congested, and muffled for my liking (using 3.5mm single ended connection). I didn't like that sound signature...

  Thank you, sir. I am much obliged.

Does anyone have the contact information of the DMV Focal dealer mentioned at this meet? I have a friend who is considering the Sony flagship (MDRZ1R), and he would like to ask if that dealer offers any sort of discount on that headphone. Thanks in advance.

Has anyone used the V2 with an LG G4 smartphone?   My V2 doesn't even power on when connected to the G4. The V2 has no problems with a friend's Samsung Note 5 or my cheapo ZTE Zmax smartphone.

I'm a bit confused on whether or not the SRM-1/MK2 pictured below comes with any PRO bias outputs?     I've seen versions of the SRM-1/MK2 on the web that come in different colors, with and without PRO bias outputs labeled on the front faceplate. I'm a bit confused and would appreciate any...

Thanks for all the replies. I hope to hear the HD800 one day.   Brooko, I look forward to your comparison between the HD600 and HD800.

Thanks for all the replies!

Hi,   I wasn't sure which subforum to ask this, but I've wondered if the increased treble response of the HD800 would compensate for my diminished hearing towards the upper frequencies? A frequent criticism of the HD800 is that its treble can be relatively overly bright, but considering that...

I was wondering if it was just me, but does anyone else NOT SEE an "Add to Cart" button on the HD800 page for BuySonic? Thanks.

So if I previously purchased a cheap pair of HD800 from Buysonic, does that exclude me from getting another pair this time? Because I don't see the "Add to Cart" button when I clicked on the HD800.

Any chance Buysonic will have the discounted price on the HD800 again in the future? Do these deals come back from time to time, or are they a one time, you-snooze-you-lose thing? As tempting as the price is, I am broke right now. :(

Hi,   I have had the Cambridge Soundworks Microworks computer speakers for nearly 8 years now. It's a 2.1 system that was decent back during its day, but now, no sound comes out of the right channel. I have swapped the satellite speakers and the cables around to isolate the problem, and the...

 I am interested in this too. I already have Ety ER4Ps and Ultimate Ears TF10. I don't want to give them up, and I don't want to have to spend loads of money to get the headset version of either.

Has anyone been able to compare the Touch as a transport versus the M2Tech hiFace? I am on the fence as whether to go the hiFace/netbook/USB hard drive or the Touch/USB hard drive.

I've been thinking about using a netbook as my transport too. Does anyone know if using both a USB hard drive and a USB-S/PDIF converter will cause dropouts or otherwise negatively impact sound quality? Thanks.

I know my volume encoder was not 1:1. Sometimes, it would take several clicks of the volume knob before a volume change was indicated by the LED display. (The remote volume control was 1:1 though.) I only had one source, so I didn't change it much. From what I recall, the source encoder was 1:1...

What the heck? The Phoenix just stopped working again while in the middle of being used! This time, its failure extends to its Preamp abilities for my speakers too.

Has any Phoenix owner experienced the following: I left my Phoenix on today for 8-9 hours without playing anything. When I finally played something through it, no sound came out of it. Neither singled ended or balanced via the XLR 4-pin amp outputs. The LED display works. The remote works...

peanuthead, Please post your impressions between the two when you get the chance. Thanks. Quote: Originally Posted by peanuthead Just bit the bullet and purchased Stage 4 Cullen Mod DLIII. Will see how this compares to my current Benchmark DAC1 USB.
