I ordered and received mine on 11/27/20. It is a very fun headphone. I seem to ignore any critical listening and just enjoy the music. I use both HD800S and Audio Technical AWAS as main cans. The bass is a big step up from either of those. Still waiting for burn in or brain burn but I feel these...

I would add the Audio Technica ATH-AWAS to the list. Amazing closed back headphone for $1400.00. Sennheiser HD800S is another great choice.

Thanks for all of your help. The curious is one that I have been looking at. I have heard almost all good. I did hear that it may be a tad bright. Do you have any experience with it? Curious, Oyaide, a few of those, starlight 8, and AudioQuest carbon are at the top of my list. I don’t have the...

I am still in the lust stage for this dac. Switching to balanced cables from the dac to my V280 amp made a big difference for me. The highs lost all harshness I heard. I am very sensitive to treble. I gained a blacker background and lost the only thing I didn’t like about this dac. I know it...

I received my Sabre pro MQA last Friday. It is the first stand alone dac that I have ever had. I am using my laptop as a source and the Violectric V280 amp with HD800S headphones. I am blown away by how good this sounds. Wide, deep and tall soundstage. Crystal clear sound without being harsh at...

I use a Violecteic V280. Great amp. Tons of power, deep soundstage. Worth a look in this price range. Good luck and I hope you find what you are lookin for.

I use the campfire Vega with the dx200ti with amp8 and amp1ti. I know they are a bit different but the Vega sounds great. I think the Vega compliments the dx200 very well. One is a a bit warmer and the other is what I would consider close to neutral. I listen almost everyday as much as I can...

I use high gain. I put my amps volume at 12 o’clock and then raise the volume on my dap until I get the loudness I want. With HD800S it is around 85-100. The reason for 12 o’clock is to make sure the sound is balanced. Sometimes at a lower volume one side will be louder than the other.

I use my DX200Ti with a Violectric 280 amp. I use balanced out of amp8 or amp1Ti and get amazing sound. I mainly listen with my Campfire Audio Vega or HD800S. Amazing control, wide and deep soundstage, just amazing sound. I love it.

I have a jr. and sometimes pair it with an Oriolus oak 10 tube amp. I use Sennheiser HD800S and Campfire Audio Vega, sounds greatI love my ak jr. For an upgrade I recommend the Ibasso dx200. It is around $850. You can’t beat the sound for the price. The amps are interchangeable also. Great dac.

I finally tried out purist rom. To me it seems to tame the highs. Highs are smoother and more enjoyable. All the info is there but better. The mids seem to have a touch more warmth than before. Lows seem the same to me. I am not sure if depth is a tad deeper, to me it seems that way. I love it...

I can’t wait to see your review. I love cowon and have a P2. Interested how it compares with dx200.

I use my dx200ti with an amp all of the time. I use high gain and set my amp volume at 12 o’clock. Turn the volume up on the dx200 until the sound is as loud as you would like, I set mine at 100. Then I use the volume on my amp to fine tune. This way imbalanced left and right should not affect...

I am not sure why there is so much hate for @WindowsX here. I use @Lurker0 on my dx200 and love it. I also can appreciate someone else trying to make my player better. If it is not the sound you like, ok, change to something else. I for one couldn’t even begin to understand how they are coding...

I use vega and HD800S with my DX200 &Ti. The DX208 can drive the HD800S very well. I love the combo! I love Sennheiser headphones. Huge, open soundstage, high to lows are beautiful! Listen if you can and make up your own opinion. Others can lead you there but it’s up to you to drink the water

I ordered mine directly from oriolus. Great dealing with them! Listening to it right now. I decided to listen to my AKjr with the oak and Vega. Great combo!

You are so lucky to have both! I would love to hear the 1Z. Can you compare the two and let us know which you prefer and why please? Thank you!

I have the Vega and the DX200 and DX200Ti. The Vega is very, very, very good with both. When I am listening to the Ti and Vega I don’t miss my HD800S. That speaks volumes for how good it sounds to me. From highs to lows to soundstage to detail to separation it is really good. The lows are not...

I have the P2 and the DX200. They are real close. DX200 with amp8 puts it ahead in my opinion. P2 still is fantastic though. If those are your choices I would try to listen to the DX150 with amp 8. I think the P2 may still be better. You can do so much with the sound of P2 to make it fit your...

Soon!

I have listened to my Ti for about 2 hours now. I am using the amp1Ti. The clarity and detail is crazy! I’m hearing things in my music that I have not heard before. The highs are clear without being harsh in any way. The mids are full and lush. Vocals seem to pop out of nowhere, from a black...

I have been on vacation, but I have a new toy waiting for me when I get back. I was fortunate enough to get the Ti. Really looking forward to hearing it when I get back on Thursday. I will post my impressions after some burn in. Listening to the Dx200 with amp8 I can’t imagine it getting much...

I have the V280 which is said to sound just like the V281. The sound with the HD800S is awesome. I can’t ask for more from an amp. It drives those phones effortlessly. It does have just a touch of warmth to me which is preferred. Listen if you can. A new amp is coming out soon from lake people...

While I love the AMP4S I can’t help but hear the sound as a bit diffused. Amp4 and my Plenue2 are not so. This is with Campfire Audio Vega. Definitely not hating on this amp, I really like the sound. Listening to Sinatra as I am writing this, love it! Just a different sound. Maybe that is why...

I asked Arthur if I didn’t need a preamp what amp should I get. He said the 280 without hesitation. He said they sound the same. The 280 has less power but if all you are using is the HD800S, you would not know. The 280 has a firm grip on the HD800S, that is my headphone of choice too. Plenty of...
