    Is an amp like the Hornet worth it with 192k Mp3s?

    Im ready to be flamed for this but in my experience, now that the shiny newness has worn off all of my toys and I'm much more capable of identifying what sounds good, I would say that bit rate is not as important as original recording quality. A really well recorded album will sound great at...

    I cancelled my order 10 days ago by emailing Xin. He didnt reply so i followed it up with a second email last Saturday. At the same time I ordered a Hornet from Ray. To date Xin hasnt replied, but i do know Ray has shipped my amp. It will be interesting to see if Ray can ship an amp...

    Thank you

    Welcome and enjoy your headphones. What music player are you using ? By the way, that curiosity is what will kill your wallet. The answer to your question about what a really good set of headphones sounds like is almost certainly, better, but not by much. If you have the E4c's you have...

    Are XIN fans less secure than Hornet fans?

    I think the big difference is the lead times from ordering. I think it's pretty natural for most people to start thinking "did i do the right thing?" as soon as they have ordered a product. With Ray that lasts about 5 days until you get the amp, then you get to listen to it and in most cases...

    Best sub100$ amp Xenos 0HA-REP? (with option of opamp rolling?)

    Kaushama, Xenos said that they would CONSIDER making it possible to roll op-amps NOT that they would do it. Once they have considered it, they may say no. Don't get your hopes up unneccesarily. I'm not shooting you down - i think it was great that you mailed them, but i think you read...

    AKG k701 amp/dac?

    Well the total bithead will do what you want, but i havent heard the 2006 version with the k701's so I cant comment on sound quality. I have the 2005 tbh and that sounds great with my k701's and I hear that the 2006 model is a signficant step up in sound quality and with switchable gain. I doubt...

    I just cancelled my order. I ordered my SMIV on July 11 when the website promised delivery within 2- 3 weeks. I heard nothing about my amp being shipped. In August Dr Xin said he had finished tweaking and that the amps would ship in 1 - 2 days. I still heard nothing about my amp...
