    MASS-Kobo Headphone Amp. model404

    Great video! If someone else has modded one of these portable amps, maybe they can shed some light on the changes the mod made? Big or small, I’m interested to know how much the signature changes with op amp swap.

    This is a very detailed response. My inexperience certainly shows here. While many things you said here were echoed previously in my thoughts, id like to highlight one thing drifter mentioned in his earlier response. The choice of drivers implemented is one important variable on sound. I'm sure...

    Yes. I understand. I could hear AND see this V shape. I think i should stop using this bloat term, because i thought it was used to describe an elevated lower midrange. You are using to to say it elapses the treble. This alaigns with what i hear about "lost detail", although these are just...

    If i compare my KR5 and trifecta; the drums have more volume and sound more realistic on the trifecta. I think the KR5 is more very analytical for this genre. guitars forwardness, drums presence and speed, combined with a wide stage give this a "in your face" sound, while at the same time, the...

    This is very much agreeable. for me, the upper mids lend to a more relaxed listen, but the bass boost also adds the excitement to a lot of tracks to make them enjoyable for me. It makes for a unique listening experience for certain genres. Not unique so much so that its offensive, just enough to...

    With Fir IEM's a topic of discussion, can someone explain how one can be described as "energetic", and another "dark" and "bright"? No pun-intended with the dark bright comment. These descriptors can be confusing, although i would say its a pretty apt description of the KR5, regardless of the...

    Great photos. Please do share your thoughts on Artha Argentium! Do you find differences between this and the standard version? If you have info on the difference tip rolling makes, I'm very interested to know!

    Really interested to hear your impressions on Artha Argentium. Your video on the original Artha was great. Hadn't seen a showcase of the Flipears packaging before that. Really special. People seemed to prefer this to its more expensive DD driver counterpart. The design is really impressive. Do...

    I listen to a lot of electronic music. Some Hardstyle songs, and keep in mind, i absolutely love the Trifecta, do not work on the this iem. This genre is notoriously fast and aggressive. I don't think anyone describes Trifecta bass as quick like BA. For example; I have a KR5 that handles this...

    Campfire Chat - Official Campfire Audio 2024 Thread!

    Yes! would love to hear your opinions on this combo. My assumption, if i may be so bold, is that the treble region really doesn't need the coloring that the Code24 offers. This coloring/energy is only something I've heard uttered by reviewers/owners of the cable. Please, if you do give...

    Earbuds Round-Up

    I'm sure it would be rewarding. Fine tuning can be done to prebuild earbuds too. If you're going to fine tune an earbud, might as well take credit for building/assembling it too, right. I think i just found another rabbit hole, and I'm thinking this could be fun. Thanks for the info in this...

    Beat Audio Lab Cyclone, right? Super interested in opinions of this cable. How does it compare to other Copper based Cables. From photos, they look absolutely gorgeous. How they sound, i don't know. If i remember correctly, someone from Europe got Beat Audio to loan some cables for a tour of...

    Earbuds Round-Up

    Yes. This worked. Will be my first earbud since Airpods. i had those yeeeears ago. Probably the most talked about, the Yinman 600's, but i do like my bass, so this seems right up my alley. Also enjoy DIY electronic projects as a hobby. Is it very rewarding building your own earbuds? Are there...

    Earbuds Round-Up

    Yeah. I can get to the store. See the earbuds. Cant get to the items page. Oh well. I hope this issue gets fixed sometime soon.

    Earbuds Round-Up

    I came across this link in a google search for Yinman 600. I have used AliX. This link, whether i click it, or copy and paste into browser, also leads to page not found. Is there another link to the store?

    Earbuds Round-Up

    Does anybody have a link to the Yinman 600's? Im looking to get into earbuds. since i already have a powerful portable amp (mass kobo 475), id like something that makes good use of it. Recommendations would also be appreciated. something similarly hard to drive. Cheers, Yaks

    Feedback by 'YakAttack99' on listing 'MASS-Kobo Model 475 Full-Balanced Portable Headphone Amp'

    Seller was helpful and responsive. From the start of the negotiation, to when the package arrived, seller was great and went above and beyond. Overall, would do business with again!

    Something that I don’t think has been discussed on this forum. In fact, I think it was pretty much unheard of in the NA region up until its release now. The response from the Asian market on these were a resounding “yes, please”! The sterling silver version was only to be a demo unit without a...

    Rhapsodio Supreme V3? probably haven't heard it. i still wouldn't mind hearing your opinion on a new piece of gear. Trifecta maybe? i know its 3DD. as far as i understand, its three DD's, but they are not assigning to different frequencies. rather, they "fire" in unison. it behaves and has...

    when i first demo'd KR5 i could immediately feel the BCD effect from kinetic bass. this is pretty much the most talked about feature from the frontier series, and imo, what makes them so polarizing. second day of a big (im assuming blind) buy, id say stick around for the ride. kinetic bass is...

    I inquired about the Sound Tiger Pure. I was told that it was “more suited towards vocals and the voices of pop singers”. Different amps may be appealing to some since each different amp has a different signature apparently. The sinfonia (which I purchased) has also been said to pair especially...

    Hype is warranted, i believe. never heard a negative review after extensive research. From what i know, its manufacturer is a lone individual who builds them by hand. comparable to mass kobo. great for stacking and does what's intended. i have bought one, and have yet to try it due to travels...
