Astell & Kern SR15: A&norma Impressions & Reviews
I always power off my phone while playing tidal. One day it corrupted my whole tidal open app... I couldn't play anything and all my offline files were gone. I restarted a few times and still it didn't work. I did a reset playlist restarted again and it worked.- gunwale

Acoustune HS1501 AL / HS1551 CU

Plussound Audio Thread
Hi plussound. I had great expectation for tri copper based on online reviews. Recently i just auditioned the exco tri copper at a local audio shop. The build is good but they sounded rather thin and underwhelming. I had to crank the volume way up (20 steps) to get better details and...- gunwale

Effect Audio cables thread
I just got my eros ii 8w from eric. I didnt know that upgrade bespoke actually means a new cable with a new box!!! I got my eros ii 8w and it sounded horrible out of the box.. :) So far i had never once believe in burning in. Only after two hours of letting it burn in on its own and...- gunwale

Hyla Audio TE-5B & TE-5T Impressions Thread
Can we do a control test with like the same cables? I think most of us will probably not use ce5 with the stock. I think the new pw cable affects the signature of te5b and te5t. I will probably go and retest all them again with the same cable. I actually felt te5b to be faster with the new...- gunwale

I had the exact same experience as you. I too swapped back to stock ofc cable and everything became more articulated. I think sr15 loves copper more than silvers.- gunwale

Astell & Kern SR15: A&norma Impressions & Reviews
I am starting to prefer the sound from SE compared to balance for iem. I think the balance goes loud too quickly while the volume of SE can be fine tuned.- gunwale

Oriolus Hybrid IEM
I found another cable company that has quite alot of high end cables. http://www.labkable-headfi.com/productlist.php I think the blue horizon is somewhere between ares ii 4w and ares ii 8w.- gunwale

Effect Audio cables thread
Hey eric, CK here. I think this is a good idea. Sometimes it is not about the price, material or number of wires. Personally i think it is all depends on the listener preference and audio setup. My first aftermarket cable is that thor ii but i have never really tried copper wire because i...- gunwale

Audio Genetic Cables
Anyone tried these before? https://m.facebook.com/audiogenetichk/photos I tried their qc24 around 200+ usd and they have very fine tuned bass and treble peak. (60hz to 4khz) It adds alot of energy and details.- gunwale

HYLA Audio Nerva X & CE-05 Impression thread
Personally i dont think sound stage and fuller vocals comes in pair. I think an open sounding signature will always have pushed back and thinner mids. Only intimate sounding signature will have fuller vocals. Although an intimate sounding signature doesnt sounds wide but it can be very...- gunwale

Canjam singapore is end of march. I tested them at music sanctuary so I guess they will be one of the representative. Singapore is very small. Even if they don't sell it at canjam you can always take a 20min train ride to their shop.- gunwale

Focal Elegia - what do you think?
Totally agree with you but also depends on the usage. Elegia is still portable enough to use on the go without looking stupid.- gunwale

Astell & Kern SR15: A&norma Impressions & Reviews
It really depends on your current setup. I tried the sr15 with a couple of audezes. They dont sound particularly good or bad. They definitely will not sound like tube amps or dedicated desktop amps. I like them better than mojo though. I only tested the SE output.- gunwale

Hyla Audio TE-5B & TE-5T Impressions Thread
I listened to the 009 and the 5000 before but not the 900s and i which amp did you use at zep for them? I have a kingsound electrostatic at home i dont think the te5t has highs any where as sweet as electrostatic. Their treble and high does not sound very organic. I have not tried pola maybe...- gunwale

I like it the most with all the switches down. The mid and high switches are not as noticable as the bass switch.- gunwale

Oriolus Hybrid IEM
I just tried lion heart 8w, eros 8w, thor 8w and ares 8w. I only tested it with left side oriolus and right side early. (it has similar sound to hyla ce5) Comparing ares 4w and 8w is like day and night. The ares 4w sounds open and wide with good bass attack. Ares 8w is dark.. Too dark for...- gunwale

HYLA Audio Nerva X & CE-05 Impression thread
I have just tested the 3 hylas. The hyla ce 5 is still the better one. The blue version has more agile bass but not as full as ce 5. The blue also has a more pushed back vocal. The green version is even weirder. Female vocal sounds like vocaloid... Both the blue and green still have very...- gunwale
