Audeze Mobius Review / Preview - Head-Fi TV
Quick question on the 5.1/7.1 USB connection on the PC. Does the Mobius accept Dolby Digital or DTS packed encoding or does the signals have to be unpacked / decoded for the surround sound to work properly?- steveting99

Audeze iSINE 10 & iSINE 20: Audeze releases two new IEM planar magnetic earphones
Would like to check with those using the Cipher cable - version 2. Is it a worthwhile upgrade compared to version 1? I'm currently using version 1 with the groovy tips and happy with the sound so far.- steveting99

Audeze iSINE 10 & iSINE 20: Audeze releases two new IEM planar magnetic earphones
Has anyone noticed this issue with their iSine20? Using V1 cypher cable on iPhone and Onkyo HF player. When switching between apps, the volume goes to almost maximum level and blasts my ear drums. Had to quickly pull the iSine20 out of the ears to prevent damage. This has now happened twice on...- steveting99

Brainwavz Audio B400 4-Way Quad Driver 3D Printed IEM
Would like to give a big shout out to Brainwavz for taking care of my order, where mistakenly I had forgotten to include the HEADFI code to get 10% upon completion of ordering the B400 and headphone stand. Sent an email asking if I had to cancel the order and do it over again, but customer...- steveting99

Brainwavz Audio B400 4-Way Quad Driver 3D Printed IEM
I'm about to join the owner's club for B400. Just placed an order Brainwavz online website as I'm living in Hong Kong. Didn't even know they were local to me and haven't even heard of the brand until lately. Need a replacement for the failing Philips Fidelio S2. I like smooth warm sound...- steveting99

Audeze iSINE 10 & iSINE 20: Audeze releases two new IEM planar magnetic earphones
Note that the cypher cable has the mic so it needs to be in close proximity to the head so it can pick up one's voice during phone calls.- steveting99

Bose QC35 Wireless Noise-Cancelling Headphones

Audeze iSINE 10 & iSINE 20: Audeze releases two new IEM planar magnetic earphones
I'm using the current iOS version 10.3.1 on both the iPhone 6+ and iPad mini 2. The Audeze app is the latest as reported in the app store. What am I doing wrong? [Edit]: The Audeze app info says version 0.0.2 dated 7-Dec-2016. Maybe Audeze needs to up-date their app in Apple's app store?- steveting99

Audeze iSINE 10 & iSINE 20: Audeze releases two new IEM planar magnetic earphones
Just did a firmware up-date for the cypher cable and says version 0.3.9. Is this the correct and latest version? I'm finding the volume levels way too high and don't go above the first click. Even the first click it a bit too loud for me and would like to have more granular volume control for...- steveting99

Audeze iSINE 10 & iSINE 20: Audeze releases two new IEM planar magnetic earphones
Well that was fast. Placed an order directly with Audeze on 14-Apr and five days later it now says shipping! Anyone overseas who can't get their iSINE locally (or is not in stock) might want to try the direct order from Audeze themselves.- steveting99

Audeze iSINE 10 & iSINE 20: Audeze releases two new IEM planar magnetic earphones
Since there's no iSINE20 in stock here in Hong Kong, have placed an order for the iSINE20 directly from Audeze USA. Wondering how will it compare to the the Philips Fidelio S2 which has a semi-open back design? The S2 has a pleasant sound signature and been serving me well for years. Been...- steveting99

Audeze iSINE 10 & iSINE 20: Audeze releases two new IEM planar magnetic earphones
Sorry, asked this question sometime back ago and probably forgotten with all the subsequent posts. Thanks for letting me know that the left and right drivers (of both iSINE10/20) are individually matched and the differences are negligible. Can I ask by what amount does Audeze consider to be...- steveting99

Audeze iSINE 10 & iSINE 20: Audeze releases two new IEM planar magnetic earphones
Brian, Can you help answer this question? Are the iSINE20 have a better manufacturing tolerance compared to the iSINE10? I.e. are the left/right imbalance less on the iSINE20 compared to the iSINE10? As a retailer of Audeze products, believe they (Audeze) are more willing to answer than...- steveting99

Audeze iSINE 10 & iSINE 20: Audeze releases two new IEM planar magnetic earphones
Question for Audeze on the manufacturing tolerances between the iSINE10 and iSINE20. Is there a tighter manufacturing tolerance for the higher priced iSINE20? I.e. in particular the left/right imbalance. What is it for the iSINE0 vs. iSINE20?- steveting99

Bose QC35 Wireless Noise-Cancelling Headphones
I'm wondering if Bose will ever offer owners the opportunity to swap the pleather pads for something that's a little bit more breathable and less prone to heat build up around the ears. I.e. Alcantara pads. Not sure if the DSP has to be re-tuned. Living in a semi-tropical climate, the...- steveting99
