    Hi. Up for sale is my personal iBasso DX300 purchased around last year. Nothing is wrong with the player. It has been in a case the entire time and there is a glass screen protector on. I also have the additional AMP13 Korg Nutube module installed. Sale will include the iBasso player, original...

    Bay Area "HiFiCon" July 29, 2023 Impressions Thread

    Here are notes on DSHA-3FN: simply the best solid-state amp I have heard ever by a very significant margin. At the meet, there were Modi Multibit and Yggdrasil LIM (I think?) and I could very easily pick out which DAC is which with the amp. If I was not careful, I would have attributed the sound...

    Bay Area "HiFiCon" July 29, 2023 Impressions Thread

    And this should be the last of the photos. I think we had a very wide variety of gears at the meet, and personally, I would have preferred for the meet to go on a bit longer to give myself some time to try out more gears. There were very interesting setups that I wanted to try but couldn't...

    This is one of the biggest Bay Area meets I have been to for such a long time. Thanks, @DeviousEnigma for organizing! Here are some of my notes from what little listening I got to do at the meet. Campfire Audio table: (please note I used Fiio KA5 as source here) Andromeda Emerald Sea: warm...

    For sale is my iBasso DX300. There is nothing wrong with the DAP. I thought I was going to keep this for my IEMs but I have decided to dabble into speakers, so this one will have to go. It's way overkill for IEMs and can in fact drive even my HE6SE to reasonable volume. Will come with an extra...

    It was a pleasure to converse with him and the transaction went as smoothly as possible. I would definitely do business with him again,

    Well, I kept telling you I cannot afford to ship internationally, especially with current pricing. It's still the same way. Even if I were to give these to you at this price at that time, the total would still be over $1000 for you due to international shipping and insurance.

    Oh yeah, I just dropped the price. It was $1000 prior but I figure I might as well try to price it lower to see if someone will have it. I have been too busy with work to really enjoy it, and it's just a waste to let the headphone wither away in the closet.

    DROP + HIFIMAN HE-R7DX CLOSED-BACK HEADPHONES

    So... it really bothered me how the headband just couldn't clamp right on my head. I took the screws off, took the cups out, and bent just the headband part by itself. Now that that's done, I can confirm that: 1. The headband can bend pretty far... 2. It is not possible to swap any of the other...

    DROP + HIFIMAN HE-R7DX CLOSED-BACK HEADPHONES

    I don't have Drop x DCA Ether CX anymore to directly compare but... I do happen to have measurements. Here you go: From memory, I would say... they are not too far off from one another.

    DROP + HIFIMAN HE-R7DX CLOSED-BACK HEADPHONES

    Yeah, thanks! I tried to give as much information as possible... and I really tried to not let my personal preference get in the way. This is basically the opposite direction of what I generally like. But then again, I don't think people realize just how bass-light the original Sony MDR-R10 was...

    DROP + HIFIMAN HE-R7DX CLOSED-BACK HEADPHONES

    Oh... thanks for creating the thread! I was going to create one myself. Drop reached out and loaned me one. I received it about 3 days ago and have listened to it for a while. I also just wrote up a review on it: https://drop.com/buy/drop-hifiman-he-r7dx-closed-back-headphones/talk/2870866 If...

    Added frequency response graph measured using MiniDSP EARS and also more photos showing close-ups of both yoke rods and the cups. Personally, I think the yoke rods show the most wear in use. Other than that, the cups look just as they do in the photo. It is very hard to see scratches on the cups...

    Hi! Yeah, I can consider it but it may not make sense given the weight of the whole package (headphone + carrying case) plus international shipping costs these days. With insurance and Paypal fees, it can be close to an extra $100 or more. If you are okay with that, please feel free to message...

    Hello. Up for sale is a Padauk ZMF Eikon. I just recently got this from a Head-fier. It's a great headphone! I'm just not able to get used to the weight overall. Plus I'm needing some extra cash for a new project. My asking price includes shipping cost and Paypal fees to anywhere in the US...

    Selling my SP1000 Copper. I've had this DAP for about a year. Originally, I got this from another Head-fier last year. There's nothing wrong with the DAP. It's fully functional. I'm just finding it very cumbersome having to use an adapter to connect to the DAP with my new M1 MacBook...

    Sennheiser HD820

    Yeah, to be more precise (and fair), it's not so much that it's closed in, but that maybe I'm used to HD800/S and I was expecting the 820 to somewhat match that. HD820 still had a "normal" soundstage compared to most other closed-back headphones that I can remember, and at least it wasn't as...

    Sennheiser HD820

    Yeah. I know I'm a polarizing person, too. I like HD600. HD650 is a bit too... bassy but I like the refined treble (but dislike the lack of it). HD660S to me was also pretty bad (too closed-in sounding), so that's that. Just that I think that at the price point of the HD820, Senn should be held...

    Sennheiser HD820

    Well, I'm one of those who were unimpressed by this headphone. Not sure if it was my impressions that you read, but I stand by those impressions, and I still do own an HD800 that I use daily with my EC Zana Deux. I even brought my HD800 along to compare to the HD820, and even used my own source...

    March 25th 2018, South Bay Area meet in San Jose

    So, first off, I'd like to thank the very awesome @donkeywalker for organizing this meetup today. It was nice to get to make new friends just as I came back for to the Bay Area for Spring Break. The meet was a great success, I think, and for the first time, I did not feel the need to walk...

    Fostex T-X0 Massdrop edition

    Don't take my words for it, but I got someone else to listen to this headphone today. He said it sounded more neutral than its measurements would imply, and I'd agree. This against T50RP Mk.III? Easily this. Maybe T50RP Mk.III just doesn't fit my tastes but the T-X0 sounds much better and more...
