I have been very tempted in the past to try Sennheisers. I have demoed them but never owned them. Maybe 58X is the perfect excuse at this price point to give them a try.

Thank you, yes that is my question, which is the right volume to use for the least distortion/best result.

@iFi audio to use the gryphon as a dac using line out balanced or single ended in the page it says to put the volume for less distortion in 0 to -3db. However the gryphon now is 0-106 scale not in db anymore. So what is the right setting? “A: On the 3.5mm HP output, use at a setting between 0dB...

Ok so now I have questions 😂. So I am interested in both Cayin RU6 and RU7. Not only for this but also as an everyday carry on. Which one will you say it pairs better with the IHa6. I am more inclined to the ru6.

What would be a decent DAC to pair the IHA 6 with? I have a Mojo2, IFI gryphon , zen dac v2 and an old maverick audio that I like because it has tube pre out. But since this will be a new setup I am not sure if anything that I have pairs well with the cayin. I was looking into the JDS Labs Atom...

I went for the blue one. I really like it.

I just order mine 🙃

Ooooo cool ordering one now

So long story short, I have never owned a Audeze. At CanJam NY a couple of weeks ago I tried all types of audezes from the "inexpensive" ones to the super expensive. I really liked it. So I am buying one from the entry level models for now. I can get LCD-2C or LCD-2 Closed for the same price...

I just bought it. Today it came on drop, I had some credits from previous purchases so I couldn’t resist jaja.

i know that ZMF uses this for all expos I even tested it in CanJam NY a couple of weeks ago because I am planing on buying it. So this noise issue maybe existed maybe happened in some units but what more test than a manufacturer using the unit over and over again to demo headphones. People...

Been looking for one without success. I think I eventually will try to change the socket to a 3.5.

Bed side setup, changing homes in the upcoming weeks so all of this will go. New setup under development, trip to Ikea coming soon 😁

Damn, it’s a shame they used this 2.5 angles cable. I will need to live with that. Thanks guys

Here you guys. They were selling them at CanJam. I have not yet decided if I fully like the sound or not. This are the velour.

I agree with these. In my notes from yesterday demo I wrote down to myself “consumer type tuning”. I’m 99% sure that if I put this headphones to my wife which does not care for audiophile type stuff she will prefer those over many others. In my opinion it was not bad, absolutely not bad , it...

X2 same exact opinion. I heard them today also at CanJam. I asked the guy there the launch, he said they will go on preorder by the end of the month.

Not entirely new … but I tried the Diablo 2 in their stand, I tried some Abyss headphones in turbo mode, no problem driving them. They also had it with some iems for the xmems technology. Interesting , I cannot say for sure if I like it or not, instrument separation was very “extreme”. Like a...

Someone has any suggestions for a cable replacement on the 5050. I quite dislike the cable plus I want a direct 4.4 not the 2.5. Any suggestion on a decent not that expensive one?

I will try to explain when I get back to the hotel from dinner, but again CanJam was full so this demos are under quite a lot of noise. So might actually be off. But I personally liked more the Liric 1 .

I just bought today at CanJam the suade pads brand new from Dekoni. I quite like the improved comfort and the sound signature. Y demoed them there with some Bathys they had but now in the hotel I am using mines and quite good. They also had some new sheepskin, I was not able to demoed does but...

I had the chance to try today at CanJam both the liric 1 and 2 at the same time. I liked more the liric 1 . The reason is I like more forward mids. And to me the liric 2 sounds more recessed. Not bad in any way but I will go for the 1. Meze confirmed that to me, if demoed by themselves it might...

Just got today to NYC , see you guys tomorrow quite excited!

I had the opportunity to try the Líric 2 at 46 audio in NY today. I did not have any portable dac/amp with me so they gave me a questyle dongle directly from my iPhone so not super amped or anything. To my surprise quite good. Very clear and good strong bass. I had them for 5 minutes on my head...

Abyss Diana V2 in my case. My first high end headphone and one that I really enjoy using. The other one is a Grado Sr 125 I bought 20 years ago in Houston by mistake when I knew nothing about headphones. I do not use it that much but is a special headphone for me because it started the hobby.
