HI All, Just saw on the Soekris WWW the new dac2541 is launched, looks exactly like the outgoing 1541, thought this was going to be a major revision but cannot be sure what the changes are? Amp section has the same specs as the old model. Anyone have further information?

I was measuring hearing thresholds. This is a complicated topic, thank you for your thoughts. I will definitely spend more time on this and post. Hearing should be a far more discussed topic especially when there is so much subjectivity on our forum. If you consider how differently we all hear...

I just spent a couple of hours taking a hearing test and plotting the results. The test was conducted from 20hz to 16,000khz using Logic X as the test tone oscillator feeding into an Apogee DAC and monitoring using Focal Elegia Closed headphones. Last year I had a hearing test done a local...

I stopped counting, it’s not a good look. Many people here give them a pass but i think Modhouse is lame.

16 weeks and counting...........

I tried this EQ and I can say its very weird. I typically would only use shelf EQ's as the first or last band of an EQ never in the middle which is the way all three shelfs are used. Eventually I can get this eq to sound exactly like Andrews Park EQ but I feel uneasy about artifacts from all of...

I’m 14 weeks in and counting.

In response to: I finally decided to sell my FLUX FA-12 and HEDDphone. FA-12 is two days old. I've placed an order on May 24th and received it on Monday, July 7th. Cost me, with shipping and PayPal fees, $890. Selling for $950. The only reason I'm selling amp and headphones are financial...

New product from Audio-gd looks good to me for the price. I'm interested; having considered all other Class A amps from Rebel, Flux Labs to Wells Audio Milo and others, this is a good power vs price option. Preliminary details @ http://www.audio-gd.com/Pro/Headphoneamp/A2/A2EN.htm

Interesting that the single ended FA-10s has balanced in and an XLR out? How do you think that works?

What Amps and DACs are you using?

FA-12S is the direct competitor for the Rebel Amp but we do not know much about that yet, but to be honest the Rebel is really interesting as well and its great to see products coming out that have strong character.

Nothing like like a balanced Class A amp, so its got to be the FA-12, I love tubes too but I grew up in a recording studio surrounded by Class A gear and it was always my favorite with the exception of mixed Class A and Tube. I don't care about distortion whatsoever, so perhaps I am not a true...

I'm in, FA-12 ordering within this month.

That was a joke, guess its not very funny.

In chatting with Flux Labs they seemed confident that FA-12 was powerful enough for Argons and they were definitely pushing me towards the FA-12. Thinking we need quantify the difference between these two amps. It's clear the FA-10 is more transparent (more power) while the FA-12 is pleasantly...

I have been listening to the Elegia's non stop since receiving them two weeks ago and I am completely not inclined to EQ them, I have played around with various EQ's and each time return to using them flat. I just think that music sounds the way it's intended and I am ok with that. Music with...

I am thinking of the FA-12 for Elegia, Modhouse Argons and various Hifiman phones.

I am thinking about this: https://fluxlab-acoustics.com/product/fa-12/ Looks really promising

I do not think the project boxes would have enough power for the Argons

So, how many people here actually own a Flux Labs FA-10 or 12?

I think both the Burson and the Mini are more than I want to spend on an amp, I know it’s Hifi, but seem supremely overpriced.

How easy is to swap pads on the Elegia, the pads seems pretty tightly affixed?

Seems like to 429$ sale is gone. Price is back to 650$

ok, that’s a super fun song and I do see why I might use EQ on that, but then again that’s why I ordered Modhouse Aragon’s as co-conspires with the Elegia.
