Hi Guys, I am still a quite new owner of HUGO2 and I am really confused on how the desktop mode works, it seems that when I use desktop mode (after 24hr plugged in) the battery would not be consumed, however everytime I am done with desktop mode (normally 1-2 hr but longer on the weekends), when...

adx5k defo has more bass quantity than HD800S, I haven't heard the Ethear 2 nor the LCD2C, what would be an accurate bass reproduction for you? And how the 3 headphones you mention compare to ADX5K in bass quality? You deem them more accurate or?

Hmmm i think the bass quality in adx5k is quite good, and enough quantity. To what are you comparing?

Haven't really A/B them but from what I remember from my listening sessions (amping with ZH1ES & HUGO from Macbook): Detail retrival: ADX5K Bass accuracy: slightly more accurate in ADX5K Bass quantity: K812 wins Soundstage: K812 wins Mids: Similar though adx5k has closer vocals Highs: ADX5K...

Nice combo in low to mid level volumes, very clean sounding and magical in high frequencies, though i think HUGO2 is a bit short in terms of pushing them to their perfect performance. I am getting a tube amp to see if they sound better.

Hey guys, I am actually just rediscovering my headphone collection as I really did not have time to listen to them all. The surprise when I get to listen to GS2000e (which is the first Grado I own and have been sitting in my room for 2 years....) is how natural they sounded, not massive details...

Oh nothing like that! was just curious to check it out and was surprised that no information was given.

Hey guys, does anyone know what is the maximum power the utopias can take? can't seem to find it anywhere........

Hey guys, just a stupid question, can you plug two headphones at the same time to HUGO2? Since it has 2 outputs?

Just got mine today and i am loving them. Also asking if anyone use them with tube, recommendations?

Well am i the only one who thinks the IER-Z1R are no scratch resistant at all with normal use? I have two very noticeable scratches in each ear piece, i dont even know how i got them. They are in the case most of the time lmao.

I stopped believing in them when my first victory started to have a creaky sound and I sent their customer service an email, they literally told me to add some OIL to make the creaking go away lmao. Send it back to amazon and asked for a new pair. Never bought from them again.... but i was 3...

Do you have any recommendations on any case to use for KSE1200 AMP? Can't seem to find anything relevant.

Was passing through airport security and had to put everything down for security, I put them in my bag where i had keys....

Oh thanks for the info! Thats pretty much what i read everywhere, I don't think there is any IEM out there that can beat KSE1200/1500 in terms of resolution/transparency/detail retrival at this moment, however I would have preferred a bigger sound stage. That's when Z1R comes in with amazing...

wow lucky! I am still waiting for my amazon delivery........ really can't wait to try them. How do they compare to KSE1200? Do they complete each other?

Can't wait to get my hands on them!! I am told that they are out of stock currently from my local dealer and will update me ASAP.........

Wow, what an amazing review! I second of what you say about the Z7s, they are the cool kid that doesn't care about rules, they just wanna play and have fun! Thanks again for this thorough review! I hope people on the net who is looking for Sony top end can find this gem easily.

Hmmm I do not own the Z7M2s nor MDR-Z1Rs, but from my audition, Z7 version one is closer to Z1R sound. Z7M2 doesn't have as much bass, though the sound have a bit more detail. Soundstage remains unchanged (big & impressive for closed back!) I think overall Z7M2's sound signature is different...

Yeah i know, but no time, was in HK last week but wasn't even aware of their existence lol. Tried PP8, Custom Art 8.2 and a bunch of high end stuff. Too late now. I think it should be a good buy though. thanks for the advises!

No, blind buy, But i like how they look lol (also nice reviews). They should arrive pretty soon!

U killed my fire

Hmmm i'll try. BTW You still have ALL THAT GEAR? WOW! (checked your gear list, it's impressive!)

WOW, please share impressions when you get them! should i reenter the chi fi game? all the IEM looks so frickin' good on pictures I can't even......

They look amazing! if they sound bad you ll have a nice pair of earrings :D
