    SONY NW-WM1Z M2 / WM1A M2

    Sure. With low impedance headphones. But be ready to fork out $ to get yourself a proper amp and inline your walkman to it for high impedance ones.

    High end (IEM) cable thread: impressions, pics, comparisons and reviews.

    Interesting that Triton is not mainstream but still popular and nobody puts up a review (Not saying I don't believe you. It will help a ton for somebody to shed light for any potential buyers). They do look light and thin from the pictures. Good to know that they perform more favorably to...

    Low end. Cheap. Generic. Otherwise bang for buck cable thread!

    This is great advice! Will do. Will read up on the kinds of jacks to understand the differences on sound for balanced output vs. single-end output. This is textbook level of detail. Thank you for taking the time to dive deep into this! Will take some time to fully digest this and come back...

    Thanks Tim! Will find some time to sit down and digest this material.

    High end (IEM) cable thread: impressions, pics, comparisons and reviews.

    Would you happen to have a review on these Triton cables you can link to? Would like to compare the details of their sound to others mentioned here to make an informed decision... What makes you say that? I'm curious. I briefly compared the basic specs between the M5 and the BTR5 - Besides...

    Thanks! So that's what AWG means. Good to know that insulation and how it's braided should be considered. The GPC has aluminum Y splitters. Hope that reduces weight. (I'm like that myself when I run. Everything has to be in place and order before I start. :smile_phones:) It would be great if...

    Thanks a bunch for this quick comparison! Will definitely consider the Scorpion as I have a pair of rather bright IEMs. Want to get the low end and low-mid emphasized like you said. This topic on copper also prompts another question out of curiosity if you don't mind - What's your experience on...

    Anybody have any ideas on how the BTR5 compares to the M5? Are they similar in specs?

    High end (IEM) cable thread: impressions, pics, comparisons and reviews.

    This is great. Thanks! I'm willing to sacrifice a bit of flexibility, lightness, and convenience for better sound. I was leaning on the Satin Audio Griffin until you've mentioned FiR Audio and PlusSound. So I look forward to your review! I see you pick FiR's SPC to compare instead of the pure...

    Thanks for the rec! Good to know the difference between teflon and TPU. I'm waiting for the BTR5. Would it be wise to get that first than to buy a cable to know which connection type being used? (Sorry. Very newb to this)

    Low end. Cheap. Generic. Otherwise bang for buck cable thread!

    I'm a bigger newb about this. Where do you read up on info about the different kinds of termination type? Single Ended vs. TRS vs. TRRS balanced. This gets my head spinning... I'm waiting for the BTR5. Should I buy a new cable only after I get the BTR5, so I know which termination type to get?

    Low end. Cheap. Generic. Otherwise bang for buck cable thread!

    Newbie question here - Does 8 wire usually has a wider sound stage than 4 wire? Picks up better vocal and instrument placement ranges? (Paraphasing from another poster in the high end cable thread) I see @hakuzen rec the 171 over the 170, which got me curious to learn why.

    Thank you for the rec's. Love your review on the Satin Audio Griffin and Chimera. Very informative and really liked the comparisons with EA Ares II. Learned quite a bit as a newbie. I think they are pretty light and thin too based on your review? Curious about your thoughts on Satin Audio ones...

    Would anyone know if there's a distributor that can take custom orders on PW Audio's cables? Want to shorten the length to less than 50cm for running and working out. If not, any other companies to rec? Looking for an OCC copper cable that is very light, thin, and short for under $300

    Low end. Cheap. Generic. Otherwise bang for buck cable thread!

    Would anyone be able to rec an OCC copper cable that is very light, thin, and short (Less than 50cm)? Need to connect a BTR3 and do not want a long and heavy cable that can get inconvenient really fast when running or working out. Really dig Hakuzen's rec'd copper cable, but it's too long...

    BEST SUB-500$ DAP (Digital Audio Player)-Reviews, Impressions, Reference List

    My phone can send out APTX HD and LDAC. The BTX2 doesn't receive LDAC or APTX HD. I think I now understand how DAC/AMP works. So I will now instead finda BT adapter, like Radsone and looking forward to the BTR5. Just need a short and light cable. Any recommendations on cable?

    I find the bass is weak straight from the phone and feel the sound quality can be 'stronger'. This is while plugged in by cables

    That's really cool that you make your own cable. Eyeing the BTR5. It seems most here are quite hyped up about it

    Thanks! This is very informative but straight to the point. Saved me a lot of time from mindless wandering for such a fantasy device without understand ing the basics. It seems the best way to go is to get a BT adapter and plug to my IEMs. Glad my phone has LDAC. Any suggestions on a short and...

    Appreciate it ClieOS! Thanks for putting up with my illogical, doomed quest on badgering other people for this fantasy device. Got way too hung up on this idea and thought anything is possible in 2019. Without doing some googling on the fundamentals first! LOL Now I think it's a pretty good...

    FiiO BTR3-The World' First Bluetooth Headphone Amplifier, SBC/AAC/aptX/aptX LL/aptX HD/LDAC/HWA (LHDC)

    You just saved me a lot of time and $$$. What cable do you use? I want something similar to the girl from the promo pics featuring the BTR3 from FiiO. LOL I'm always on the go. Keeping everything ultra portable and light is very important to me. Don't want my ear buds and the BT receiver get...

    The Hi-Fi + Hi-Res Audiophiles' Bluetooth Headphone Adapter Thread - [17.Oct.21] iFi GO Blu impression added

    So the DAC/AMP always outputs an analog signal? Hence, renders the point moot for connecting to BT headphones? Understand that the BT receiver converts the digital signal to analog for the IEMs. But what if the DAC/AMP outputs a decent digital signal via a superior codec like LDAC and the BT...
