    Getting EQ to work properly on my iBasso DX320

    Hi, Friends, I have never messed with creating an EQ profile before now, so I am unfamiliar with how to do this. But now that I have purchased my Audeze LCDi4 planar magnetic IEM's, which require EQ to sound right, I need to sort this out. I figured I would start by creating the proper EQ...

    Arya Organic tonality?

    I have both the organic and the stealth in house right now, trying to decide between the two of them. The sound staging and imaging of the organic is amazing, as many have said. But I am finding the tonality a bit “hot,“ as in kind of bright in the high end. Whereas the stealth hits just right...

    Good headphone match for iBasso DX320?

    Hi, I'm looking for recommendations for a great headphone match for the iBasso DX320. I have a pair of Dan Clark Aeon 2 Closed Back cans that sound nice with the DX320, but I'd love to hear from DX320 owners who are very happy with a different set of cans. I'm looking for something closed back...

    How to install Google Play Store on iBasso DX240 with Android 11?

    I've got a DX240, which I adore, with the latest firmware running Android 11. Lately, the APK Pure app is choking on downloading certain apps, specifically, the latest Tidal app update. It just won't download at all no matter how I clean app storage or reboot. Can anyone here confirm that the...

    Campfire Holocene vs. Andromeda

    Hi, folks, I have a pair of the campfire Holocene IEM‘s that I adore. For those of you have have heard both the Andromeda and the Holocene, would you be so kind as to comment on how much of an upgrade the Andromeda is over the Holocene? I am sorely tempted… Thank you so much in advance!

    Fragility of Campfire Audio finishes?

    Hi, Folks, About six months ago, I purchased a pair of Campfire Holocene IEM's and I absolutely love the balanced, airy, resolving sound. My sole disappointment is the fragility of the painted, brownish colored finish. The paint has rubbed off the metal on nearly every one of the corners of the...

    Desktop amp/DAC recommendations for Dan Clark Aeon 2 Closed

    Greetings, I am using these cans with a Chord Mojo for desktop and semi portable, on the go music, and they sound very nice, but I am looking for a desktop unit that might better the Mojo when I’m not going anywhere. Budget is US$500 or less. Eager to hear your thoughts. Many thanks, Steve

    LSA Headphones

    Hi, Gang, The LSA (Living Sounds Audio) Group has been in the high-end home audio business for quite a long time, but I just stumbled upon the fact that they're now in the headphone market. I have no idea what these sound like, but I thought y'all might find this interesting. Link here.

    Chord Mojo - in 2020?

    Bloom Audio is currently running a sale on the Chord Mojo for around $385. Given the advances in portable audio since the Mojo was originally released, would any of you buy the Mojo today over what’s available now at a similar price? Really eager for your opinions on this! :dt880smile:

    Does a balanced cable adapter like this exist?

    Hi, My Hifiman RE 600 IEM‘s have a 3.5 mm balanced jack, and I would like to know if there is an adapter that will take them to a 2.5 mm balanced jack, so that I can use them in balanced mode with my Radsone ES100. I poked around on the websites of the usual suppliers, but can’t seem to find...

    Amazing Bargain Currently on the KEF M200

    Just a heads up that currently, on the USA segment of the KEF.com website, there is a tremendous holiday sale going on on the absolutely wonderful KEF M200 IEM's.   I truly adore these earphones and for the sale price of $69, I can't imagine anything that could possibly touch them. Heck, they...

    Earphones and toxic materials?

    Hi, Gang, I raised this question in the "Chinese/Asian" thread and got a small response so I thought I'd break it out into a separate thread to hear your thoughts. The European Union has a complex set of consumer product guidelines called ROHS, which I believe stands for Restriction Of...

    Looking for a mid-tier DAP on par or better than the DX80...

    Hi,   I love my iBasso DX80. It sounds great, is well built, has a good line out and DAC functionality and does native DSD very nicely.   The only downside for me is that there are a couple of annoying (but not show-stopping) firmware bugs that iBasso has yet to squash.   Anyone have...

    Aurisonics Rockets vs. Etymotic ER-4P

    Got the Ety's now, thinking of picking up used Rockets. Worth it? I like the Ety sound a lot. Thanks!

    IEM Search: Neutral with accurate, non-peaky top end, palpable but non-exaggerated bass

    Hi, Guys, I'm on a search for a pair of IEM's to pair with my iBasso DX80. I come from a home audiophile background; I value accuracy to the source. I don't mind a little bass boost to heighten impact, so long as it doesn't mask the mids. I like an airy, spacious sound. The one thing I'm very...

    MEE Pinnacle P1 or ATH-IM03?

    Hi, Folks! Weighing these two IEM's. Currently I have RE-600's. Love the sound (smooth, detailed, neutral) but wouldn't mind a smidgen more low end, plus the cable developed a short. :-/ Soundstage and neutrality are a plus. So, used ATH-IM03 (used) or P1 (new)? Thanks!!

    Do balanced Armature based IEM's tend to have brightness issues?

    It may look from the title of this thread like I am trolling, here, but I am not. :-) I am a veteran two channel audiophile dipping my big toe into the world of portable audio. I suppose you could say I like a classic "audiophile" sound – pretty neutral top to bottom. Maybe a little midbass...

    Need advice from owners: excessive sibilance brightness with new DUNU DN-2000J's?

    Hi,   I am looking for a good IEM match for my iBasso DX80. I've been using a pair of Hifiman RE-600's, which should by now be pretty well broken in. They sound very good, but I had the itch to try something "better."     After scouting around here, reading threads and asking for...

    Looking for great portable headphone or IEM match for iBasso DX80!

    Hi, Gang, I have a new iBasso DX80 DAP and I'm looking for a great match in a reasonably portable headphone or IEM. I value neutrality and a spacious soundstage, and the street price needs to be well under $500. Any ideas? Right now I'm using a pair of Hifiman RE-600 IEM's. They sound nice...

    Standalone DAP or iPhone 6 with DAC/amp?

    Hi, I recently bought a pair of Hifiman RE-600 IEM's which I like quite a bit. I am now toying with the idea of getting a portable rig that will play the high-res and lossless tracks I've purchased and played on my laptop and home stereo rig. I could go with something like the new CEntrance...

    Newbie here

    Hi, Gang,   This is my first post on Head-Fi,  although I've long been active in the "outside your head" audio scene on Audiogon.com and elsewhere. I recently picked up my first new pair of IEM's in a long time (my Etymotic's ER4P's finally died after many years) and ended up with Hifiman...
