    Hifiman HE1000 Planar Dynamic Headphone

    If you're asking me, then yes, I'm very satisfied with the Playmate2. I'm using the V7 Classic op-amps. Lots of power and nice analog sound with just a hint of warmth.

    Hifiman HE1000 Planar Dynamic Headphone

    I use a Burson Audio Playmate 2 that is about 3W. I sometimes need to have the volume at 60-65/99 on high gain. I don't think I'd want a less powerful amp.

    Damn! I've been playing since '92 and feel like I've spent way too much time doing so, but never reached even half of that in any game lol.

    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    I use the 606kbps mode on my phone (cheap Motorola) and don't experience any connection problems, so it's definitely a Sony problem. I've also used the 900kbps mode, but not as extensively. [edit] FLAC files from SD card.

    Sennheiser is really overpriced. I had the MTW3 and they broke down twice before I just asked for a refund. The Aviot TE-ZX1 was only 230€ after shipping and taxes and it does everything better than the MTW3, except for size.

    Is that the 40th anniversary Super Deluxe edition that is shipping TODAY?

    ZMF BOKEH - Closed Back (Semi-Portable)

    I was starting to get impatient lol. Kinda hoped you would've just said that the Bokeh is amazing and well worth the price to push me over the fence on whether to buy them or not, but I'm even more unsure now. I guess I'll keep my money incase something more interesting gets released. Great...

    ZMF Spring Limiteds, CanJam NYC and Estimated Release Schedule for Caldera Closed and BOKEH Open!

    Will there ever be a stabilized Bokeh or are they too "low-tier" to get a special version? I crave a darker colour Bokeh and even the red ones are sold out at EU distributors.

    I agree that a separate thread should be made and I feel slightly guilty because I too have posted things here that don't really benefit anyone. The thread could have a list of all the TWS in different price brackets with no off topic chatter. I disagree that price is always an indicator of...

    The settings work for me. I changed it to ANC <-> Transparency On.

    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    I was going to, but I didn't feel like trying to justify buying yet another in-ear to my spouse. I think one pair per month is my maximum. Very interested in hearing about the sleep buds though!

    The Closed-Back Headphone Thread (Plus Comparisons & Reviews)

    Interesting. I love the Aviot TWS I recently received.

    It just speaks of their sound quality lol. I'll prioritize comfort in my next set of TWS once the TE-ZX1 eventually dies.

    I've been using my Aviot TE-ZX1 for couple of weeks now. At first I didn't like them, but this was mostly due to their size. I'm slowly getting used to them and as long as I don't move them too much when they're in my ears using them is almost painless. Their sound quality is superb with a bit...

    Knowledge Zenith (KZ) impressions thread

    Bought the KZ Castor to try since they were only 10 bucks. Surprisingly good! I thought they would make a great set for someone to dip their toes into audio, I gifted them to a friend and it turns out most people don't have the necessary things to even use regular IEMs?! No 3.5mm jack in phones...

    I liked Returnal, but kinda forgot about it when I kept dying to the same boss over and over again. I don't mind rogue-lites (Dead Cells is awesome!), but Returnal's runs just take too long to work well in that genre. Technologically Returnal is really impressive and I'll probably return to it...

    Mine connect to my phone immediately when I take them out of the case, zero user input required. But I guess it could work differently with different Bluetooth versions.

    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    I tried them again and this time with the ANC. I felt a slight pain initially, but my ears got used to it, it does actually reduce the noise a tiny bit, but when music is playing it's not very obvious. I decreased the treble even more with EQ (Foobar2000, the Sound Me App still doesn't work) and...

    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    Crazy how different everyone hears and feels things. I'm probably not going to put mine back in my ears again. After testing them for couple of hours it was actually painful to take them out lol. I put my over-ear PX8 on and it was like everything was alright in the world again. The ZX1 will be...

    I work in a factory with a constant hum, the ANC doesn't really do much other than add pressure. I can use them with the ANC turned off, doesn't make a huge difference.

    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    I've now used the Aviot TE-ZX1 in real world instead of at home (work), unfortunately the ANC is completely useless and even hurts a little, the transparency mode is also very bad. They do sound pretty good, if you don't count the sharp highs. The EQ in the Sound Me app isn't working for me for...

    Burson V7 Classic Pro and V7 Vivid Pro - Hi-Fi audiophile solid-state op-amps

    The treble isn't necessarily more intense, but it's like I can hear dust on some tracks. Any kind of crackling seems to pull my attention, this includes a moist mouth. I had a lot of trouble deciding between the Vivid and Classic, I listen to a lot of different types of music. In retrospect I...

    I'm enjoying the Cowboy Bebop buds! They're not that big IMO. The ANC seems to add a bit of hiss-like noise so I don't think I'll be using it, the passive noise isolation isn't very good though so we'll see.
