Dear Head-Fi community, I am constantly upgrading, downgrading and even completely removing my portable HiFi gear. Currently I only use Bluetooth sources Android mobile phone, Fiio BTR7 streaming to Beyerdynamic Xelento 2gen, Focal Bathys and Custom Art Fibae7u. I would like to get a streaming...

I recieved IE100Pro wireless today and I am blown away! Guys, I had IE900, Sony Z1R and other expensive high end IEMs. Now I am asking myself why? I guess IE900 had that additional 10-15% improvement (from memory, which I shouldn't even write without comparing side by side), but was it worth...

I am on a mission to find good sounding and compact headphones with microphone or good 3rd party microphone cable. Main use-case would be for longer calls using my Sony Xperia Pro-I (and soon Xperia 1iv) and music when on the go. I already have Sony WH-1000XM4 and WF-1000XM4 but they do bot...

https://www.highendsociety.de/high-end-44.html Is anybody going? I will probably go on Sunday 22nd.

Just got the LinkBuds in addition to WF-1000XM4 for a more casual fit. I am really impressed with the magic Sony did here. Best sounding in-ears without isolation I have heard so far. Nothing for hifi purists for sure but I will be thinking twice before I make a decision between ANC in-ears and...

Hi guys, I would like to upgrade from Fiio M11Pro. I would like to get a bit more OS stability and battery life. Tidal streaming is a must. Soundwise I am very happy with it. New DAP should drive Focal Clear and ThieAudio Monarch via 4.4mm. What should I look at? Cayin, L&P? Thanks for any...

I am spending a lot of time in calls and would like to have good sound and mic quality for my wired headset. Wireless is no go, i don't want to be dependent on yet another device that needs to be charged and as of now I did not find wireless headset that would provide stable connection and good...

I am still evaluating Roon SW for the management and playback of my music collection and I have to say that I like it a lot. Probably not enough ti pay full lifetime license but enough to pay for 1 year... I have been testing multiple endpoints and this resulted a decision to cancel my Google...

Preparing for the official announcement and based on the recent leaks here what Samsung states for Note9: - AKG tuned stereo speakers - AKG tuned headphones Looks like they are just replicating the S9/+ audio setup. And this is really disappointing. Why would not they introduce solid DAC/Amp...

Hi all, I will receive my Beyerdynamic Aventho Wireless headphones tomorrow and look for best source to drive them. I currently use Note 8 with Exynos CPU which seems to support only AptX. I expect it to support AptX HD after Android 8 upgrade. As a temporary solution I would like to buy used...

I am interested in a detailed explanation what is the real difference between the mobile amps available (or amps integrated into the DAC chips like ESS 9028) and standalone "big" amplifiers? I am a little bit confused why would I need such a big dedicated device if even a small chip can drive my...

Hi all, I have Sennheiser HD600 and Momentum Wireless for my music needs (no professional use). I really love HD600 but can not use it in the office with open space. Momentum Wireless is also a good versatile headset with bluetooth, built-in DAC and cabled use, but it's not as comfortable as...
