DX320MAX Ti The musical event worth the wait. ROHM X 4. !! NEW Firmware: 2.03 !!
I'll share an opinion that some will disagree with. I don't feel the 320max has enough power to do justice to the 1266 TC, let alone the Susvara. Sure, you can listen to music and turn it up loud with both headphones but you won't be hearing anything close to what they are capable of with a...- kwilkins

DX320MAX Ti The musical event worth the wait. ROHM X 4. !! NEW Firmware: 2.03 !!
I haven't had much time with the unit but have tried it with the: Meze Elite ZMF Caldera Sony MDR Z1R Spirit Valkyria I found the Meze Elite had the best synergy with the 320max. This surprised me because usually the Valkyria outshines all the others but the Elites are pure magic with the 320max.- kwilkins

iBasso DX320MAX Ti Preorders Are Live!
What is the sound signature of the ROHM DAC's? If the Sony wm1zm2 is warm and lush and the A&K SP3000 is detailed and reference, how would you describe the ROHM?- kwilkins

Spirit Torino Valkyria
Thanks for the tip, I have emailed Andrea for the video. I too love Genesis. I've seen them six times in concert but was 10 years old for the Lambs tour, so I missed that one.- kwilkins

Spirit Torino Valkyria
Last week I purchased a used Valkyria from a fellow Head-Fi member. It is still early days, but I wanted to share some initial impressions. Most of my limited audio knowledge has come from reading posts and reviews on Head-Fi. I find it very helpful when a person posting or doing a review...- kwilkins

Woo Audio WA23.....
Just received my Luna last night and have two questions for owners. Did you find it difficult to insert the tubes? I had to push quite hard to get the tubes in and was a bit concerned they would crack do to the force required. I'm wondering if there is a trick to make it easier. How many...- kwilkins

Thanks for the advice, most of the time I'm on the Lina but I'll give the Auris a try. I couldn't find the Caldera thin suede pads on the website. Are you able to send me a link?- kwilkins

ZMF Caldera - New Planar Magnetic from ZMF!
Thanks all for your advice on the pad swap. Mine came with the leather and the "Lambskin Thick Caldera (warmer)" so it looks like I'll need to purchase the suede and cowhide pads to give them a try.- kwilkins

ZMF Caldera - New Planar Magnetic from ZMF!
I'm using them with the DCS Lina stack. I gave them a quick try on my desktop system - Mola Mola Tambaqui and GS-X mk2. They sound great on both systems but the vocal issue remains the same on both systems.- kwilkins

ZMF Caldera - New Planar Magnetic from ZMF!
I've been burning in the Caldera (at about 150 hours now) and spent my first dedicated time listing to them last night. I love most things about the sound and particularly the base and separation. One issue I'm having is on some songs the vocals seem reassessed and are a bit overpowered by the...- kwilkins

SONY NW-WM1Z M2 / WM1A M2
Hi all. Looking for recommendations on the best way to connect the WM1ZM2 to the TA-ZH1ES. There is a port on the side to connect with the WM1Z, I have that cable but not the WM1Z. Is there an adapter, or should I go with USB, or another solution for optimal sound quality. Thanks, Ken- kwilkins
