    AKG's new K872?

    *** OFF TOPIC *** Just saw Atomic Blonde tonight and Charlize was wearing K140s... ...but if even @EvilKillaruna hasn't had the honor... :p Not sure if the director / wardrobe got it right, though, considering the film was centered around Berlin just before the Wall came down (1989) and the...

    New TOL A&K DAP : the AK Ultima SP1000

    T4S Bernie! :beerchug: I would be interested to know if A&K will finally allow the user to select the DAC's native "filter" options. The AK4490s also have user-selectable filters but as we know, A&K didn't give us the option with the AK3xx series... Next question will be to figure out what AKM...

    The Beyerdynamic Byron Series (IFA 2016)

    So finally I got around to doing so; I wanted to give the original triple-flange some time but they were impossible. I trimmed off the largest of the three flanges in order to insure the same deep fit and... ->They look awesome this way ->They still "oscillate" (bounce) with movement...

    24bit vs 16bit, the myth exploded!

    So how many bits am I looking at with my "GOTG2" setup... ? :D

    Astell & Kern KANN - DAP with Massive Storage & Battery

      You only need "real" line out when you have a built-in amp stage. Here's a flowchart from A&K's FB site showing how their DAP & Amp work in conjunction:     All AK3x0 series use AKM's AK4490 DAC so you could try asking in their threads as well. HOWEVER... ...be warned that the AK4490...

    Audio-Technica ATH-DSR9BT/ATH-DSR7BT Bluetooth Headphones (With Digital Drive Technology That Replaces a Traditional DAC)

    My stunt & traction kites use CF rods (both solid and wrapped) and nothing creaks  I think it's the implementation and I am willing to bet that the Utopia 2.0 will have done away with that by using a Teflon sleeve or what-have-you I'm also assuming Tyll wasn't trying to twist the heck out of...

    Audio-Technica ATH-DSR9BT/ATH-DSR7BT Bluetooth Headphones (With Digital Drive Technology That Replaces a Traditional DAC)

    I think there's a little plastic (read: plastic components) in almost all cans including TOTL ones. My €1.2K (list) Beyerdynamic T5p.2s have quite a bit and even my €1.6K list AKG K872s do too. Of course it's how the materials are implemented etc. that will make or break the final product and...

    *NEW PRODUCT ANNOUNCEMENT* Jerry Harvey Audio Lola™ Hybrid CIEM and Universal

    LSCF has been in use in the custom-knives industry for the past five years or so - verrrry nice. Here's a sample of it on a beautiful Microtech c/o Monkeyedge (an awesome dealer state-side):     I love the stuff albeit I don't have any (folder) with it but you're 100% right, it's some...

    New Beyerdynamic T1 (2nd Generation)

        This is a photo of my T5p.2s but I believe it's exactly the same setup for the T1.2s. As you can see, there is a very short "wind" on the plug as well as on the jack's entrance. I've read that you can live without the "lock" function as long as you don't tug on the cables so it's only...

    AKG's new K872?

    Yes, well, there seems to be conflicting opinions on this "positioning" business.   I personally have not noticed any variations with "slight" adjustments (I'm not interested in doing yoga with them on ) and if we assume they are close in basic characteristics to the 812, @Tyll Hertsens also...

    AKG's new K872?

    And you placed the foam ring back over all of that? How thick are the sorbothane pieces?

    AKG's new K872?

      So now that I've put enough hours I can confirm that I prefer the sound WITHOUT the foam rings.   Not once have I been irritated, agitated or felt fatigued due to any potential HF issues while listening to the K872s for longer periods. I've read your opinions, I've seen @EvilKillaruna FR...

    Astell & Kern KANN - DAP with Massive Storage & Battery

            Quote: Again with the "need for external amplification"... what are you guys using, Sennheiser HD800s? Beyerdynamic T1s? Don't get me wrong; if you're from the higher-impedance cans sound better camp,  well power to you (pun intended).   But let's be honest; most cans / IEMs...
