ZMF BOKEH - Closed Back (Semi-Portable)
I may be in the minority, but the one thing I was not excited about was the rubied color. To each their own, but I could care less if this is the color moving forward. I didn’t buy this for uniqueness. I was really happy to get the email as the finish in the video looks great.- jfox8

They are now sold out. I think it says there is an 8 to 12 week wait for the next batch.- jfox8

Focal Clear headphones
This. This amp is really good for the money. I bought one a while back, and ended up doing what I always do... Blow more money on more expensive gear. At the end of the day, this has been the one amp that I have kept. It is just a nice sounding, competent amp.- jfox8

Schiit Owners Unite
Really cool, maybe one day I'll be able to make the pilgrimage. I've always wondered what the really high dollar Schiit sounds like.- jfox8

Sennheiser 660S vs Drop 6xx
I agree, to me they sound cleaner that the 6XX. The 6XX has always had that veil that people write about. I know there are amp pairings that improve the situation, but I never had that with the 660S. To me the 6XX do sound smoother, which counts for something. At the end of the day, neither...- jfox8

NITSCH x Schiit Magni Piety - Impressions Thread
Well I've been listening to this amp for the past two days, and it's a nice little amp! I have to agree with those that feel this is worth the price tag, but in my opinion it is not a giant killer. I do get the sharpness in high gain that I find fatiguing for whatever reason. With that in mind...- jfox8

Introducing the HIFIMAN EF400 Balanced Desktop DAC/Amplifier!
I second this… I paired it with the Arya and it sounded great. I have no doubt this will outperform an iFi portable as long as you are ok with the nature of a R2R DAC.- jfox8

Introducing the HIFIMAN EF400 Balanced Desktop DAC/Amplifier!
I think you will find that it pairs really well. I was running the Edition XS through a THX 789 and a Modius DAC and it was too much for me. The EF400 toned it down just enough to make it very enjoyable listening experience.- jfox8

Introducing the HIFIMAN EF400 Balanced Desktop DAC/Amplifier!
I am surprised this unit has not gained more traction. While not perfect, I am super impressed. I am sitting here with a Bifrost 2/64 and a Jotunheim 2 and I think they'll have to go back to Schiit. While the Schiit stack sounds good, it lacks the cohesive feel I get with the EF400. I feel the...- jfox8

Reply to review by 'jfox8' on item 'HIFIMAN EF400'
I think you hit the nail on the head. While you can get something more technically impressive, the presentation of the DAC is very organic. I've spent a ton of money on DACs in the past, and this combo unit is a really nice package. I am about to return a more expensive stack (Bifrost 2 and...- jfox8
