Audeze Mobius Review / Preview - Head-Fi TV
Man. These seem pretty incredible but I'm yet another in the disappointed boat at the lack of native console support. Well not just that, we'll say lack of couch support, lol. These are marketed as a surround experience for movies and gaming, but how many people are actually enjoying their...- twibmassa

MEE Audio Pinnacle P1 - $199 Dynamic Driver Flagship *Reviews 2nd Post*
Thank you, that echoes what I remember reading in the past, just wasn't sure if that was still the general consensus.(that the P1 is still the flagship) I agree $150 is a steal, just didn't want to finally pull the trigger on these if a new flagship was coming out soon. I haven't bought an IEM...- twibmassa

MEE Audio Pinnacle P1 - $199 Dynamic Driver Flagship *Reviews 2nd Post*
I'm was seriously about to pull the trigger on these after the post about the new $149 price tag but the only thing holding me back.....the P2's! Has there been anymore information on what the P2 actually is that I have missed, or when it will come out? Is this lower price of the P1 a sign of a...- twibmassa

Schiit Mani
Schitt sys is ok, I have it. But the JDS OL switcher has 2 inputs and 2 outputs. I found I needed this because I run a cd player and a TT to a headphone amp and my powered monitors. There are also "simple volume control knobs with one in and 1 out such as the TC level pilot and the Emotiva...- twibmassa

Shanling M5 Impressions & Discussion Thread
Nice, but the only thing I really wanted was the ability to change the volume by increments of 5 or 10 instead of just 1. When i switch iems/phones or using as dac or dap, It takes forever to scroll to a much different volume. Hopefully this gets added eventually.- twibmassa

Massdrop x Noble X Universal IEMs Review / Preview
Still no comparison to the CA Nova? I was really hoping to get someones opinion on this. I can't be the only one who jumped on the Nova drop who is also eyeing these. Two dual BA driver iems in the mid-fi space.... Also, do the Noble iems present any difficulty for small eared gentleman such as...- twibmassa

Massdrop x Noble X Universal IEMs Review / Preview
Man, I love massdrop collaborations...I was wondering if anyone had anything to offer for my current situation. I own many IEM's but my most high-end would be the mass-drop early adopted Campfire audio Nova's. These are also a 2 BA iem. Is the Noble X an upgrade/downgrade/sidegrade compared to...- twibmassa

Shanling M5 Impressions & Discussion Thread
Hmmm. This doesn't seem normal...updating my music library from the card only takes a minute or two....hard to tell if this is a card issue, a format issue, or a reset of the device is needed? or firmware update....or possibly just a faulty device? Does it hang up like this prior to updating...- twibmassa

Shanling M5 Impressions & Discussion Thread
I'm not sure if anyone has confirmed this already or not, but the Shanling M5 DAC does work with a smartphone via an otg cable. At least in my case it does (Nexus 6p). This probably become possible AFTER the latest firmware update but I'm not sure because I never tried it prior to upgrading...- twibmassa

After doing a basic drag and drop of my music I've found much of it doesn't have the album artwork attached to it....what do you guys use to attach artwork to your files so the m5 displays them?- twibmassa

Yeah so I figured out my problem. I didnt have a program to unzip a .rar file. Windows 10 extracts .zip files on its own with no extra software but not .rar files. I was just putting the unzipped file on a card and trying to get my M5 to read it. My fault...didnt know it needed extracted since...- twibmassa

Campfire Audio - Introducing 2 new models Hello Andromeda and Nova
I also use spinfits. I've heard people have mixed reviews on the effect they have on the sound quality but they simply seal the best and are the most comfortable. I ALSO usually use the smallest size possible when it comes to tips but I find myself going up and up in size with this combo...- twibmassa

Hmmm. Seller on eBay has M5 for $399 but $30 in shipping. I suppose if I get desperate I can try that....at least I would be protected by eBay and PayPal. I still am not sure why aliexpress hates me, shy of providing my birth certificate and social I'm not sure what else I could have done!- twibmassa
