Also curious what other tubes have you used (particularly wondering if you have heard the Psvane UK 6SN7)? I recently got an Elex, and am burning in a Psvane UK 6SN7 (which as of now I like more than both stock tubes) right now in my Lyr 3.

Hi all, recently got a Lyr 3 and am starting to try out some tube rolling. Currently have both the stock (russian NOS and Tung-Sol) tubes (early impressions have me preferring the russian NOS for my Elex), and a PSvane UK 6SN7 is on the way. I was wondering if anyone could give me any insight on...

Hi there, so I am finally looking into upgrading my desktop amp/dac section (currently an original modi and a magni 2 uber). My current headphones include: Empire Ears Legend X, Fostex TH-X00, and a Beyerdynamic DT880 600ohm (I am also considering a Fostex TH-900 mk2 as a future purchase), and I...

First pic of my new Legend-X customs. Just love the blue burl finish (picture doesn't do the depth and contrast of the blues justice). First impressions of the sound are very positive...and that is with them only being driven by a phone.

For me it was down to the Bravado or Legend X. I had mentioned previously on this thread that I enjoy my Fostex TH-X00 over ears a lot (the extra low end over my DT-880s is addicting and really adds a lot of enjoyment for me), and was recommended the Bravado or Legend X for a similar sound. As...

Placed the order for my custom Legend X yesterday so super pumped...now the waiting begins.

Hi all, about to order a custom Legend X and was wondering what people's recommendations are for portable dac/amps (I want to be able to connect it to my LG G6 android phone). I am considering options up to $1000 CAD (~$750 USD). As of now, the Fiio Q5 and Chord Mojo are two that I have been...

Wow, thanks for the increadibly detailed response! Working to narrow down the decision between bravado, vantage, and legend-x. All sound suited to my taste based on your reviews, just need to figure out what I am comfortable shelling out haha. Looking forward to experiencing the empire ears...

Hi all, finally looking to get a set of custom IEMs again now that it is more financially viable for me (my earwerkz supras were stolen a few years back and have missed them so much, especially since universals have always been too big for my ears). As such, I am looking to get people's thoughts...

Any opinions on how the mids and highs on these compare to those of say, the Fostex TH-X00?

The ebay seller (who bought them off of somebody else) ended up refunding the buyer.

UPDATE: I was fortunate enough to have my headphones returned to me by someone who bought them on ebay. If anybody else ever finds themselves in the situation I was just in (having headphones like these stolen), I would suggest posting immediately on websites with prominent reviews of the...

They get a VIP section as they also took custom IEMs.

Hey all, I recently had my TH-X00's stolen (serial #0997), so if any of you are in the southwestern Ontario area (particularly around the GTA) and you see somebody trying to sell this pair I would appreciate if you could message me to let me know. Thanks.

Came close to meeting that request...997 here.

RJ58   Would love to see more headphone stands (also Sennheiser 650s or Beyerdynamic T1s).

The X5 is on for $274.00 CAD right now on canadacomputers.com for those interested.

canadacomputers.com has a great deal going on the Fiio X5 at $274.00 CAD right now.

Got my Magni 2 Uber today as well and I echo this sentiment (after about an hour of listening).

Once these start shipping, it would be great to see a Magni/Modi vs. Vali/Modi comparison for the 600ohm dt880s (maybe see how it compares relative to Asgard 2/Valhalla/Lyr as well).

Just bought a Magni/Modi stack last week (need to pick them up) for my (also recently purchased) Beyerdynamic DT880s (600ohm), and now this comes along...

I'm in a similar boat myself, just ordered some DT880 600ohms and a magni/modi combo...cannot wait to try them out when they arrive.

Love how this happens after I pull the trigger on a $250 pair, but I see that Canada Computers is applying a $116 discount to the dt880 600ohm model if you use online shipping (bringing the price to $233 CDN before shipping and tax...$272 after I believe). Just thought I would let any potential...

  Agreed, read these threads and couldn't resist (that, and I was able to get the 600ohm premiums for $250 new...would have probably had to drop $400 for a new pair of any else comparable)

  Thank you for your suggestions, will give this stuff a listen (too bad I can't get Spotify in Canada ). In regards to soundtrack music, I have the Two Steps from Hell "Invincible" album, so that could definitely be a fun (and probably intense) listen with the Beyers. Thank you very much...
