    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    Yes, those are the ones. The seal isn't good for my problem ears, and the accessories for fit look identical to MW07. I bought them for Mrs. DeepSouth for xmas.

    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    2017 info is outdated. I don't mean to be rude, and before I bought he SP1000 is did read the entire 2000 page megathread. The problem with 2000 page megathreads are while they are a perfect snapshot in time, they're outdated with (now) false information. The SP1000 is no longer the best, the...

    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    Good to know. I like JHA Layla and A18t. I like CF andromeda but it's a little too fatiguing, and I like the sure se846. The flimsy silicone eartips have fit issues. I have a wide yet flat/narrow ear canal. Foam tips do ok, not great. Bose's quiet comfort 15 or whatever the 3.5 plug in...

    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    Is there a TOTL wireless model yet? I'm using apple earpod pro, and they're ok. I don't get the best seal, I'll pass the test, then fail the test, then wiggle them deeper and pass again. I'm not going to read through all 2051 pages, hoping for cliff notes. I tried Louis Vuitton's version, I...

    ?? Blue Collar Prices At The Summit??

    Schiit YGGDRASIL at $2500 is often compared to a $10,000 Dave by Chord and other TOTL DACs like Esoteric. I'm not saying I agree with yggy being better than dave, I've never heard them both at the same sitting. But they're compared a lot. I've heard of Rogue audio to be as good as Audio...

    TOTL disappointments

    Diana V2 is a disappointment, at least for the money. I still like it, but it is not very good for the money. It does some things very well like clarity and bass detail, but lacks bass and has a thin tonal balance. It isn't easy to drive headphone, and the bass does improve from terrible to ok...

    Diana: the second release by Abyss Headphones!

    Diana V1 has the thinner pads. Diana Phi has bigger pads, which carried over into Diana V2 (allegedly).

    Diana: the second release by Abyss Headphones!

    I just kept it in a drawer. There is a spot where I tried to put better cables in, and the extended piece isn't deep enough to fit the proprietary hole. That's worn off too, but that doesn't explain the rest. My V2 paint defect looks a lot like the phi in this listing...

    Diana: the second release by Abyss Headphones!

    The paint on my diana v2 lasted a couple listening sessions, hardly for a lifetime. A Diana phi with 40 hours on it is for sale in this forum, also with bad paint. I think it's pretty awesome that Abyss even upgrades old models into a new model, I'm disappointed to learn that Abyss doesn't...

    Astell&Kern new flagship A&Ultima SP2000

    I have the sp1000 and contemplating upgrading to a sp2000...... or a fiio m15 until AK allows me to remove the useless swipey volume adjustment. Ibasso DX220 has a useless swipey volume too, but at least its perpendicular to album swiping making it nearly impossible to swipe to adjust volume...

    Benchmark HPA4 Headphone / Line Amplifier Impressions

    @ phthora Does your house have dimmer switches? I had a humming Mcintosh amp, I went through great lengths to cure it. Most power filters don't remove DC power from the line. Some do, but most don't. You could get a low cost single purpose DC filter too. You can have an electrician to see if DC...

    Meze EMPYREAN - the First Isodynamic Hybrid Array Headphone

    Monoprice THX amp and I'm using a DX220 dap right now. It's my temporary setup. My AK sp1000 is in the shop. I'm comparing this to the Diana v2, which does somethings amazing. It's bassline is super tight using the same setup. I'd get the diana v2, but it's lack of bass is a turn off. Diana V2...

    Meze EMPYREAN - the First Isodynamic Hybrid Array Headphone

    Empryean owners with an upgraded cable, I need your advice. I'm demoing the empryean and diana v2 right now. What I don't like about the Empyrean is the bass is out of focus, and the bass line isn't clear. Also, the sound is a little veiled. Otherwise it has great tonality and comfort, and...

    SONY NW-WM1Z / WM1A

    I'm planning on jumping from AK over to SONY when they make the next TOTL player. When AK is using the next generation of DAC chips and Sony is still using an old one, it's hard to justify the price of a TOTL player anticipating that Sony will have an update around the corner.

    Astell&Kern new flagship A&Ultima SP2000

    When Sony makes a new TOTL DAP with the newest DAC to compete with sp2000 I'm considering jumping too. I'm holding my breath for a new TOTL sony replacement or Fiio M15 or whichever was announced recently. Cayin has no plans on a refresh to the N8. AK is a dangerous product over the volume...
