    Stax SR-X9000

    Just to chime in, i heard both the Sus and CRBN at last year's CanJam and i preferred the latter (was off the Woo Audio WES). The Sus was driven by the fabled MassKobo 465 and honestly it didnt resonate as much with me as the CRBN did nor the Abyss Phi TC driven by the XIAUDIO amp. The Sus was...

    Introducing the HIFIMAN EF400 Balanced Desktop DAC/Amplifier!

    I tried the EF400 with the HD600 and Susvaras as well (the latter just for kicks and to see how the ef400 drives them). Using the ifi pro iCan sig as a brief comparison, I preferred the HD600 out of the EF400 . The iCan pro Sig sounded more refined with better imaging and separation on a...

    Empire Ears - Discussion & Impressions (Formerly EarWerkz)

    Hi Rob (if i can call you that), i only listened to LegendX, EVR, ESR and ofcourse the Phantom out of EE's new line up. Personally, i thought both the EVR & ESR were decent. Didn't really pay much attention to both and the only thing that resonated with me was that both models seemed airy and...

    Empire Ears - Discussion & Impressions (Formerly EarWerkz)

    I cannot but agree with you wholeheartedly on this @Rei87 ... The over positive impressions here on this particular thread is a huge contrast to the Singapore Canjam Impressions thread where EE 's latest line-up was barely mentioned. Even the Pola electret IEM garnered more interest ... I...

    Review: Spiral Ear SE 5-way Reference - A new level of resolution? (Review posted 5/15/12)

    Ah right..... i too encountered some serious delay with FedEx when i shipped over my impressions. Believe it or not, mine were stuck in Polish customs for a week! Other than that debacle, Grzegorz was uber fast. If not for that particular delay in customs, SE's turnaround time would prob rival...
