Wow, ok. So, just looked this up. Do you know of any US distributors? Their website states one sole distributor out of Singapore. Do you happen to own this one? The build seems really really nice, but I've been burned a few times buying directly from Singapore, Seoul, and Hong Kong. If you...

Thanks Howdy. Although, I may still sell the Oppo as it's being used as a desktop DAC. I could use the money towards the Bifrost purchase or some new cans. I really wish I knew if I could tell the difference between the Oppo and the Bifrost Multibit, Or, if I would hear No difference. The HA2...

Hey everybody! Question. I love my Oppo HA 2 SE amp/dac. A few months ago, I purchased a Schiit Valhalla 2 amp. I absolutely love it, so now I am using the Oppo as my DAC. My question is, does anyone else use this combo, but real question is: Is it worth getting the Bifrost Multibit DAC? I...

Hi everyone, I am looking for this for my Schiit Valhalla 2. Just for cooling capability and looks. Only thing similar are these from the link at 25 bucks each, that's a hundred for all four of my tubes, not gonna pay that. Anyone else purchased this or some other tube risers similar...

Hi All. I have the HD 700's and got my Schiit Valhalla 2 in a week ago today. It is a remarkable amp and paired with the HD 700 is awesome combo. There is more than enough headroom and it drives these cans like crazy. I like my music clean and loud. I only have to turn the volume to 50% or...

Yeah, I get it. But it's a pure Class A, always like a stalking tiger, ready to leap into your face at full throttle. They are supposed to "run" this way. No tiger pun intended.

Thanks Rick. I know it would have much more headroom. I've just been curious if I could save 100 bucks and almost have something similar. I have an email into Schiit asking the same. I'm in an area at the coast of South Carolina and I would half to travel 4 to 5 hours one way to get to the...

I too am still looking for an answer to the original question that was posted:  "Schiit Magni 2 uber vs Asgard 2 for Sennheiser HD700 "   I see many comments and some from folks who have owned both, but no actual reply has been given that I can find. (I see answers about the Vahalla,  tube...

Based on everything I have read, the answer is a definite yes.  Bob Katz did an excellent article quite a while back describing his experience with the PM-3 and the Oppo HA-2, before the SE version came out.  If you are not familiar with Bob, he is one of the best recording engineers on the...

My understanding is the exact opposite. Turn Spotify, iTunes, whatever to max volume, then adjust output from computer for a bit perfect audio from the dragonfly.

Here is the link for the sub base along with another sample recording:   Sub base:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRfmAG1FoCs&t=1033s   Surprising mix showing 700's ability of all frequencies: https://youtu.be/RLisZ2kcpE0https://youtu.be/RLisZ2kcpE0   Thanks again for the response. 

Greetings from the coast of SC and thanks for getting back to me! I've had my 700's for a little over a week. I keep hearing more things I like about them each day. Kind of like you in a way, I got these cheap, 424 and free shipping. I wanted to stay about 600 or less to keep my bride happy...

I completely agree on the battery powered when using a iPhone or android. That is the reason I sold one of my dragonflies and went with the Oppo HA 2SE which powers my HD 650s and my new HD 700s without issue versus the dragonfly black. Even though the red may have a slight bit more power, the...

Totally agree, as far as I'm concerned the SE version has a black noise floor compared to the original with my Westone's and other cheaper IEM's..  The HA-2SE is the best 300.00 decision I've made in audio in a long time.  It's a great PC dac/amp and works just fine with my portable rig with an...

I agree the black will do the trick. I've had both. Not sure of your highest ohm on a few of these cans, I'm not sure about, but the Red DF drove my HD 650's almost without an issue even at 300 ohms. But as you know, more power does not suck like less power. DAC wise, on a USB stick DAC, I could...

I believe you will enjoy as I owned one myself.  The DAC works well and plenty of power in the amp section.  I returned mine not for the sound, but having to use the lightning to usb dongle constantly lost signal on my I phone 6.  I ended up with the Oppo HA-2A SE for my portable rig.

hi @Jon-LF, Do you still have your HD-700's?  I ask as mine will be here tomorrow or Tuesday.  I live at the coast of SC and with the exception of higher-end audio-visual installation/showrooms for home automation, there are no audio stores here at all.  And, those installation stores will sell...

Agreed  But everything was started-stating using my HA-2SE. 

Thank you again for your input.  I want these to work with my Ha-2SE so badly cause their so dang dynamic!  I'll let you know.

Well that's interesting.  You would think a relatively new R&D/Headphone company would react the exact opposite, and want all feedback especially quality issues.  I'm going to try writing or calling them again next week.  I'll let you know the response I get. I just purchased a set of the...

I'm not sure how old this thread is but I am excited like a seven year old on Christmas morning who just received his first (shoot your eye out) BB gun.  My 700's will be here on Monday the week of Christmas.  I currently own an Oppo HA-2SE amp.  1. Does anyone else use this combo, the 700's and...
