I find the 300max to have slightly aggressive HF, not the mids. I used to have the SP2000Cu as well, that‘s a tad warmer than either 300max or M17.

Yes battery powered so far

So far I have ran through 5 batteries with my M17 so far and just to share my experience so far. Before the M17, the 300max has been my go to player and I also have DX300, R01, E01, E02 and A02 with C9. I have to say as good as the 300max already is, I am very impressed with the M17 so far, the...

Moon audio black dragon...

Tried with AK380 + amp, Sony 1Z and ibasso DX200

Maybe coz I was comparing it with the Encore, 1 word to describe Encore, piercing.

Today finally got the chance to listen to the PP8, was trying to decide between the PP8 vs Noble's new encore. Well I picked the PP8 at the end, the sound of the PP8 to me is more musical, natural and slightly warm in signature. I don't think it is dead neutral, but the sound is lush yet...

Just got my Roxanne performance series, am surprised the sound tuning is vastly different between the 2, the performance series got lusher mids, slightly richer and closer vocals, highs r better controlled. Bass seems tighter but probably lower in quantity when compared at the same settings...

Hi Trevor, would u pls look at order 4171, sent u a few emails and awaiting reply, thanx

I just tried the Vega and Lyra 2 with the spanking new DX200, great match...

Finally got the Sony Kimber dual 3.5 to 4.4 cable to use my 1Z with Technics T700 cans, all I can say is, its a great system...

Haha perhaps Trump wont let Campfire to build them in China anymore! Yay!

The Vega might not suit ur taste thats fine, but the Kaede or Saukra + ( which I happen to own ), I can name more than a few serious flaws abt them, unreasonably low efficiency for an iem, peaky treble thats full of sibilant even when using comply foam. Hollow and sucked out midrange, the bass...

I just tried using an external battery, the same it reboots...

I think the same no matter what the power source is....

BTW for current 1Z users, are you able to turn the unit completely off while charging? Seems like the unit will always restart when plugged in...

Well after running in the unit for close to 24hours, the bass seems to be a bit more punchy than I would like with the Vega, but have to run pass the 100 hours to see...

How do you like it so far?

I wouldnt say so yet..... Just got pleasantly surprised by the Lyra 2 after listening to it for less than half an hour...

Just picked up my 1Z a few hours ago, so far a lovely piece of gold brick, using drive the Campfire Vega and Lyra 2, the Sony seems to have have ample power to drive them really well. Looking forward to use it to drive more iems. Interface speed wise, I hope the scrolling speed can be improved...

Yes I do for a week, well as always the law of diminishing returns will kick in at some point. I do love the sound of the Vega v much, and actually quite happy to find the Lyra 2 to be initially quite comparable to the Vega, but ofcourse too early to draw conclusions.

Just picked up the Lyra 2, right out of the box, it seems to offer a lot of SQ for half the price of the Vega....

Yup will win with the boomy bass

Less than a week I shld be able to receive this golden beauty....
