    Feliks Audio ENVY

    Hello, Lukasz Feliks was kind enough to provide me with a pre-production copy of the new Feliks Envy 25th Anniversary Edition for an exclusive presentation on Musicalhead, which nevertheless corresponds technically and sonically to the final version. And already in the first listening test...

    HiFiMan Susvara

    In my experience, the dynamic qualities of the Susvara are primarily dependent on the power actually supplied by the headphone amplifier. The Hifiman really comes alive only beyond a supply of at least 2 x 10 watts per channel - also gladly at corresponding speaker outputs. As a result, I...

    Meze Audio LIRIC - The portable isodynamic hybrid array headphone

    Hello, the range of balanced cables for the Liric is fortunately quite large, since the headphones are wired via 2 common 3.5 mm mono jacks. However, the silver-coated copper cable from Meze itself (Meze 99 Classics, Meze 99 Neo) is already well suited - it just doesn't quite fit in terms of...

    NEW Planar-Magnetic Flagship — Sendy Audio Peacock

    Hello, the Peacock may not necessarily correspond to my design ideas from the visual aspect, but from a purely sonic point of view, the small Chinese manufacture has undoubtedly succeeded in creating a musical bull's eye. Especially in this price range. The Peacock‘s unique way of sensitively...

    T+A Solitaire P planar magnetostatic

    T+A is offering two new headphone cable sets for the SOLITAIRE P-SE in a mobile-friendly length of 1.25 m. While the unbalanced connection has been fitted with a practical 3.5 mm jack plug, the German manufacturer has opted for a state-of-the-art 4.4 mm PentaConn connection from NDIC for the...

    T+A Solitaire P planar magnetostatic

    Incidentally, I can partly understand @Nomax statements regarding his qualitative impression, especially if you have the opportunity to compare both headphones (P+SE) directly on site... I see the actual problem less in the general craftsmanship of the SE, but rather in the somewhat uninspired...

    T+A Solitaire P planar magnetostatic

    Hello, the general workmanship of my SOLITAIRE P-SE test sample was impeccable, although I liked the P model much better in terms of value and feel. By the way, I also mentioned this in my review. But I can not confirm the pictures posted by @Nomax. Cause the red fabric is only visible when...

    HiFiMan Susvara

    ...have your posting unfortunately just discovered. My congratulations on your really excellent comparison! From my point of view, there is nothing to add, especially since I often fluctuate myself, which of the two headphones I should give preference on the respective listening evening. Many...

    T+A Solitaire P planar magnetostatic

    Both headphone amplifiers operate the two T+A of course with ease, whereby the HA200 again plays a bit more transparent and controlled than the CMA12. I would also invest in any case in the surcharge for the master version, which sounds IMO much better than the basic version. However, even the...

    T+A Solitaire P planar magnetostatic

    ...unfortunately not. But I also strongly doubt that the power reserves of the QPM would be sufficient to operate the P-SE. From my point of view, DAPs of the caliber of an R8, a DX220 Max or an M15 are more likely to be needed. Greetings Fidelio

    T+A Solitaire P planar magnetostatic

    Hello, I should not have had to post excerpts of my listening impressions of the Solitaire P-SE here at all, since all interested readers can read the listening reports on my blog anyway. But since there were obviously problems with the English translation, I finally took the trouble to...

    T+A Solitaire P planar magnetostatic

    Hello, below you will find my sonic impressions of the new T+A Solitaire P-SE. I hope that I have succeeded in the translation to some extent. Cause unfortunately the Google translator is completely unusable...and as you know, I am not a native speaker... :wink: In order to make it easier for...

    T+A Solitaire P planar magnetostatic

    @ThanatosVI @DarginMahkum Your comments hit the nail on the head. Personally, I'm basically not at all interested in recommending only headphones that have the most neutral sound signature possible or that absolutely have to satisfy any frequency curves. Because that has never interested me...

    T+A Solitaire P planar magnetostatic

    And I noticed that some people just can't imagine that there are actually people on this planet who do an activity voluntarily and without financial interests. Fortunately, my professional activity, which by the way has nothing to do with the HIFI industry, allows me to run my blog Musicalhead...

    T+A Solitaire P planar magnetostatic

    I spoke yesterday with Mr. Amft, the CEO of T+A, by phone and gave him your suggestion. So new cables for the P-SE regarding mobile use in approx. 1.50 m length will most likely be included in their accessories program as early as January 2021... :wink: Greetings Fidelio

    T+A Solitaire P planar magnetostatic

    Hello, unfortunately, I may publish my review of the SOLITAIRE P-SE on my blog Musicalhead at the beginning of the new year, because the brand new T+A headphones will be officially available in German stores only from January 25. But as you see, the "Trio Infernale" is already standing by...

    Of course I will be able to compare the SE with both its bigger brother and the similarly priced EMPYREAN on HA200... :wink: Greetings and Merry Christmas Fidelio

    T+A Solitaire P planar magnetostatic

    Hello, just in time for Christmas, the new SOLITAIRE P-SE actually arrived this morning! Fresh from first production, as Mr. Amft from T+A told me by phone, so I have to play it of course a few hours before he can give his musical debut. And for sure you will find the detailed review of the...

    Raal Ribbon Headphones - SRH1A

    Hello, the new HSA1b is now also in my personal possession for some time. :) In the picture I'm still using it unbalanced via RCA with the Bakoon DAC21 at my desk. In the meantime, however, the new Raal headphone amplifier has changed location and is now powered via an Auralic duo consisting...

    Raal Ribbon Headphones - SRH1A

    Hello, just recently I had a very interesting experience regarding the RAAL REQUISITE SR1a which I would like to share with you. Please forgive my not so perfect English, but I am not a native speaker. Some time ago I made an extensive review of the SR1a on Musicalhead for you. Although the...

    Hi Thanatos VI, at the moment I still have some test devices in the pipeline until Christmas. But maybe I will write to Jack for a WA33 in the next months. And btw, I already have contact to Cayin, too...😉 Greetings Wolfgang

    Trafomatic Primavera Initial Impressions

    Hi Jonathan, unfortunately, I currently do not have the possibility to compare the two headphone amplifiers directly. However, only recently I had the opportunity to listen to the Elite Edition of the WA33 at one of my friends in combination with the ABYSS AB1266 PHI TC. Jack's big tube amp...

    Astell&Kern Launches KANN ALPHA Digital Audio Player

    @Simonnn24 There is IMO not so much difference in performance in combination with the HM. So the decision depends entirely on personal taste. The M15 plays more organically and, in the best sense, more "analogously" with the little more bass volume. The KANN ALPHA, on the other hand, has a...

    Astell&Kern Launches KANN ALPHA Digital Audio Player

    Surprise! The KANN ALPHA, after the M15 on the SUSVARA, also tries its hand at the 4.4 PentaConn connection and, just like the FIIO before, it is able to drive the low-efficiency HIFIMAN up to ambitious listening levels without problems. Up to a display of 125 on the ALPHA this is achieved...
