    Denon AH-D9200 - 2018 Flagship - Impressions Thread

    @rosci Can you describe the difference between the D9200 and the LCD-4? I own the D9200 also and agree that it is a TOTL closed can BUT I would also like to buy an "endgame" TOTL open can. I have chosen the LCD-4 for various reasons but I would like to know if there is substantial...

    Opinion on these closed backs Sony v Fostex v Focal.

    If you can stretch your budget a bit or find a good deal then also check out the Denon AH-D9200. Should be considerably better better than the ones you are considering and easily compete with the Focal Stellia which is almost double the price. More info in this thread...

    @raypin I am really interested in your opinion on the AH-D9200 vs the HD820 which from reading your posts I think you consider it the current "best" closed back HP?

    Denon AH-D9200 - 2018 Flagship - Impressions Thread

    Bowers & Wilkins P7 Wireless - Impressions Thread

    I have asked this before but I got no straight answer from anyone that has tried this: can the p7w connect wireless to a tv for late night viewing? It seems the latest model tvs have bluetooth but: 1) can they output audio through the bluetooth connection? 2) can the p7w connect succesfuly to...

    Why We'll Soon Be Living In A Class D World

    Personally I love Class D in terms from an installation perspective. Not much heat, small size and not heavy really makes sense for any sensible audiophile.

    Why We'll Soon Be Living In A Class D World

    We are many many years away I think but things are getting better. I have experience with Classe's Sigma series and they have proved to me that Class D can sound excellent. But even though they have done the bold step with the sigma being Class D their new top series Delta will be A/B

    Iphone 7+ vs Macbook Air Headphone Output

    For those we have tested it is the headphone just on the iphone 6 better than the 7 with the stock adapter?

    Iphone 7+ vs Macbook Air Headphone Output

    I think somehow through the conversation we might have confused things a bit. The P9s are very well driven by the iphone 7+ and they sound very very good. They sound better though and clearer when driven by the mac air and this is why I started the thread since I expexted the 2 year old pc to be...

    Iphone 7+ vs Macbook Air Headphone Output

    The general consensus is that the apple adapter contains a tiny DAC since the lighting connector from everything I read is an all digital connection. One of the articles below speculates that it is a Cirrus Logic similar to the apple earphones'.  ...

    Iphone 7+ vs Macbook Air Headphone Output

    Good info, thank you. I think the ports are almost equally powerful, I even think the iphone 7+ can go louder. But clarity, separation and in general audio quality are quite different which was a surprise.

    I will try to do some testing as well vs physical CDs to see if there is a difference to my ears

    Tidal Is Not 100% lossless?

    I am guessing you checked the settings already but it was the only thing I could have suggested.

    Tidal Is Not 100% lossless?

    I was surprised to find out that even though you pay for hifi streaming you have to manually setup some of the options in settings. Are you using a pc, mac, android or ios? This is from ios:

    Has anybody compared the Dialogue Premium HP'S headphone amp to a similarly priced dedicated headphone amp?   Or maybe more reviews specifically about the Dialogue Premium HP's headphone performance?

    Iphone 7+ vs Macbook Air Headphone Output

    It seems to me when listening through the macbook air (2014 model) the audio quality in general is much better than my iphone 7+?   This is with B&W P9 headphones driven directly by the 2 devices - using the stock adapter for the iphone. Source is Tidal Hi-Fi (uncompressed) on both.   Is...

    Bowers&Wilkins new flagship the P9!

    Trying to break in my pair - I am still at around 20-30 hours and things are improving a lot. I think there is quite a big +ve difference to the P7 - which are my work headphones at the moment.      A few points:   1) These require quality audio and recordings. There is notable difference...

    This is from both chrome and Tapatalk. It does work if I am logged out. Maybe this is because I am a new member and not all my options are enabled?

    Splitting signal to 2 hphones from dragonfly or iphone

    Thank you. From what I see though the Mojo has twin headphone outputs so it means that there is a built in electronic splitter inside the box.
