    Beyerdynamic Xelento!

    That's great news, thank you. I will be on the look out for that cable. On first glance i could only find Reference 8 and Gold 16 in germany. Still love my Xelentos though. It's ironic: I mainly bought them because i wanted something small and easy to drive with my smartphone. Now i like...

    Beyerdynamic Xelento!

    Thanks, that is very helpful. Especially the stiffness of the cable is an excellent point. I usually don't mind a stiff cable but with these IEMs it probably would bother me. iirc the T8ie come with the smaller case of the first series wired Xelento. Does your Silver Litz cable fit inside that...

    Beyerdynamic Xelento!

    Hello everyone, i picked up a pair of Xelento Wireless this week. First of all: OMG are they comfortable. It's like day and night compared to my Nobles (and the reason i didn't even try CA). I'm usually a speakers kind of guy, and i only wear earphons when i'm outside but these i could see...

    Pictures of Your Portable Rig (part XVI)

      Beautiful stuff. It looks like the SuperBax has less memory than the Bax. This is, to me, the only downside of the Bax compared to Noble's stock cable.     I'd say enjoy your rig, but i'm sure you're already doing just that

    Pictures of Your Portable Rig (part XVI)

    Thanks guys, i meant nothing special in terms of SQ (the Berry, not the Nobles. Those i'm already in love with )   I really like the design of the phone too, but i would like it even better without the big ol' "Porsche Design" writing on the front. Number one selling point to me was the build...

    Pictures of Your Portable Rig (part XVI)

    Nothing too special compared to the beautiful rigs in this thread: Blackberry 9981 > Linum BaX > Noble 4. Got the Nobles on Friday and couldn't be happier.   Thinking about adding a small amp to furhter enhance the performance. I'm still undecided whether i want a DAP or not. It might be too...

    Noble 4 Impressions Thread

    Went back to the Noble 4/Blackberry 9981 combo after spending the weekend mostly using them with iPad 1 and iPhone 4, this time using Linum BaX instead of the stock cable.   So "horrible" was somewhat of an exageration, now it seems pleasing enough, though not as good as with the Apple...

    Noble 4 Impressions Thread

    I got my Noble 4 on Friday. They are the first quality IEMs i own so i can't really compare them to anything but my speakers at home, or perhaps my friends K701 and ATH 50. I am very happy with them, all the "research" before buying them here on the forums (thanks again Luis) seems to have paid...

    Pictures of Your Portable Rig (part XVI)

      Thanks very much. I'll read up on it. I'm really lovin' getting to know all this knew stuff. Doesn't happen very often anymore where home audio is concerned but this portable thing really seems to have a lot more to offer than i initially thought. And here i thought the big spending was...

    Pictures of Your Portable Rig (part XVI)

      I've been an audiophile for about 6 years now (musiclover much longer) but portable fidelity is something that's new to me so please forgive my ignorance: what type of player is this? It looks quite nice, almost as nice as the hardwood floor

    Wallet - Fi

    I used to use a money clip for a while because i thought it was cool (still do) but i found it too impractical for my needs. I need some place to stash my plastic as well as my cash.   I use a Louis Vuitton Multiple in Damier Canvas which has been my trusty companion for about 7 years now. It...

    Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens HD trailer

    Can't wait for the new movie. I really like the Star Trek movies by JJ Abrams. Actually i like most, if not all, of his movies. Combine this with the fact that i am one of those people who enjoyed episodes 1, 2, 3 as much as i did 4, 5, 6 and you will understand (or not ) how psyched i am about...

    Brady or Manning?

    Nice terminology. I also find your reasoning quite compelling. Just not enough, still gonna go with Brady

    Rate The Last Movie You Watched

    Last movie i watched? Interstellar. Wow, i really don't watch as many movies as i used to. I would rate it as 9.5/10.   I also really enjoyed the Soundtrack. Perhaps Hans Zimmers best work, imho of course. I'm usually much more of a John Williams guy.

    The Official Echobox Explorer Thread

    Looks interesting. Guess i could make 64GB work, although expandable memory would be very nice to have. Definitely something to consider at this price point.   Also i love the look of this thing. I just hope i won't try to plug my earphones into my flask when i'm a little toasty

    New Member Introductions thread

    Hello all,   i've been reading here now and again and recently decided to join.   I've been doing the home audio thing for a couple of years now and i still love. Now i want to see if i can enjoy my music as much while i'm out and about, so i'm looking for some nice IEMs. Might even start a...
