    Arctic Cables Discussion Thread

    I discovered Arctic Cables in the comments on the Focal Clear MG review on Headphones.com. I'm a huge believer in upgrading cables on headphones. When I got my Clear MG, I ordered the Arctic Cable Cross Series to pair with it. It has been a match made in heaven in my system. Fast forward a...

    Rockbox for iBasso DX90 dual boot with Mango (Stock Firmware)

    I am in search of some help.  Have not posted here in a long time.  Just bought a DX90 and installed Napka's latest Rockbox builds on it.  Put some music on the internal drive and everything worked great.  Just added 10 gig of music to the sd card and the database has been taking forever to...

    HD800 Owners only: Need some answers on AMP's that do and don't work

    Quote: Been using the above setup for exactly a year, and I have no interest in going to anything else.  I think the warm tubes and hard driving impact from the Raptor are just what the 800 needs.  Once I found this setup, my urge to upgrade has completely gone away.  Before this, I was...

    Do JH13 really rival/surpass the best full-size reference headphones available?

    Yes, they are on the same level as the high end cans, better, no. I love both my 13's and my 800's. I'm not going to say that one is markedly better than the other. They both have so many great qualities and so few negative, you could not go wrong with either. With all of the glowing things...

    Sennheiser HD800 Review

    Great review. I have found many of the same things listening to the 800, albeit with some different music. I know the whole system is important, but I've never found the 800 to be boring or sterile. They are so lifelike and consuming, as the OP said, you can't help but get sucked into and around...

    SE530 vs. JH13

    It has been a while since I owned the 530's, but I can tell you it is rare that you can find something and say, is it worth the extra money, well yes the 13's are 100% worth it. I don't know what the 530's are going for these days. I got mine about 2 years ago for $350. So, I would say that you...

    Congrats Grawk, I can tell you that at the almost one week mark, I am still completely in awe. These things are just so damn incredible. Tonight I'm taking a break to give my 800's a little love. To help answer the bass questions, these little bad boys have bass in spades. I really wonder who...

    WA6SE or RSA Raptor

    Not at all. It really only takes a few minutes, say 3-5, for them to get warmed up. I just turn it on, surf the web for a few, and than dive in. I was all SS at first, and I do like my ultra desktop, but now that I've got the flavor of tubes, there's no going back.

    WA6SE or RSA Raptor

    As I stated in your other thread, I will gladly endorse the Raptor. And as was stated earlier in this thread, the 800 and the Raptor are fantastic together. It really just depends on the sound that you are looking to get. As far as quality, you cannot find two better people to do business...

    Ray Samuel Amps

    I bought both a stock WA6 and my Raptor at the same time (sorry, have never heard the SE). While I really enjoyed both, I just enjoyed the dynamic punch of the Raptor more. This decision was made using the stock tubes on the Raptor and with a Sophia Princess on the WA6. The Raptor is even better...

    Ray Samuel Amps

    There are a ton of great options in regards to headphone amps right now, both ss and tube. It's like being a craft beer fan, we are probably at the peak of both selection and quality. There are lots of grea mfg out there, and being I was in the same place at one time, it's tough when you can't...

    The JH16 Pro: JH Audio Announces The JH Audio JH16 Pro Custom In-Ear Monitor

    X2 on the improvement over the 530's. While it's been a while since I owned them, but the bass is deeper, and the quality is as good as any headphone/earphone I have ever heard. You'll hear bass texture like you wouldn't believe. These things are truly astounding. On to another topic, I just...

    Haven't heard either of the ss amps, so can't comment on those. I absolutely love my Raptor. Depending on the tubes you can go detailed and fast or warm and smooth, all with great impact. It's a wonderful amp, and I have not once had the itch to upgrade from it.

    JH Audio JH-13 PRO impressions thread

    Well my 13's arrived today. First let me say the fit is outstanding. They are slightly more narrow/skinny than my UE11's that they scanned. I was a little surprised by this, since with the additional drivers I figured they would at least be the same size. This size difference has actually led to...

With that said, still can't complain too much with a 3 day turn around. Now wednesday will be a really exciting day. Must not ready any more reviews on these things, must...

    jh opinions/experiences .. or bass-heavy recommendations

    I've got the 13's on order so can't help you there. I own the UE 11's, and I can assure you that as customs that they have more than enough bass. The main reason I decided to order the 13's was I am finding that the bass from the 11's can sometimes overwhelm the other frequencies, and I am...

    You heartless ba***rds have finally wore me down. After reading about how great these things are for 8 months, I finally had to say enough and order a pair. I am super excited and super pained at the same time. You see, I just got a pair of UE11's about a month before the JH Audio announcment...

    SS amps comparable to RSA HR-2 ?

    It's really funny that once again so many people (not all, but most) jump on here and make blanket statements on how other products are far better than in this particular case the HR-2, without ever hearing it. Again, it is irresponsible to make statements based on what you have read as if that...
