Well, I haven`t seen internals of TA-03 yet but first thing to do - replace all electrolytic capacitors, especially ones with no-name or unknown brand! You probably don`t belive it (I also didn`t belive it in case of T1) but it could provide You with greater improvement than getting new tubes. Also, tube-rolling is freaking addictive and costly! I ended up spending money that I don`t want to even mention. But I got some luck and got high-end tubes with very little money. In the end, I ended up with about 75 tubes ! LOL! 

 

But it's so much fun, he sure needs to put top line caps in and of course I'd go right to finding some NIB CCA's

Sorry Tamal, could not help myself, Coil lead me into this trap

LOL

I really want to try the Xduoo TA-03 so bad. I love my Xduoo X3 so much.
Does anyone have it in their hands?
I'd probably get mine and look to do a full recap and transformer/tube upgrade nearly immediately...

Still looking for a great dac around 100-200$ also I think I either will order a pair of Music Maker KK-Ting or TK-12 which one would you choose and why? 
 
Also why would you choose the dac you choose? Its for a pair of DT770 80Ohm PRo
 
Thanks in advance guys also Im a total noob when it comes to in-ears and DAC´s

  I also like the design of TFZ Series 1 and price, but reviews are not so positive.

Well what do you know, went to lunch and on my return I am handed my new TFZ Series 1's

I'm going to give them a B+ for packaging

Now let's see if the rumors are true or if I can dispel any of them

Geeokut V2?

 

[Andra94]

That is a bit expensive and im not really impressed by the super small design

Geeokut V2?

I was wondering if he'd pick that up from Red John's post

 
So, OOTB the TFZ S1 w/Auvio's sounds pretty clean albeit a little on the bass heavy side I'm not finding it to over shadow mids or highs at all on my iPhone 6 so I sure can't wait to here them on the M2 and X3ii. First cut up is a wave 44.1 copy of the the's "Perfect" and I can tell you already they are worth my $39

Oh also forgot to tell I want the Dac for PC , also its a great + if it looks amazing and clean.

I personally like the one I use with my desktop setup and I think it can be had for $150-$200 but others may not be as keen on it. Some may already consider the HRT MS II old school to what's coming out these days!

OK, so now I need some of my fellow brother's to help a brother out (I lack major skillz in Chinese interpretation

) Seems everything except the back side of the warranty card in these TFZ's is in you'll never guess..........Chinese

 
So they give you stickers (I always thought the emblem on the thing was imbedded but it's just a gold sticker). So now I'm guessing outside of the Symbol and TFZ that one of these is possibly left ear and the other right?
 


Of course does it really matter which one I put on which as long as I know which one is left and which right? Well heck yeah I sure can't have some Chinese guy come up to me and tell me my iem's are on backwards

 

[MuZo2]

Just put them upside down, even Chinese might not able to read it.

More 808 rant, soundstage width is wide, but no depth & height. Resolution is poor and hence imaging is bad too. Am I expecting too much from 35$ iem. But RE-ZERO & havi b3 are in same price bracket.

 

[Podster]

I don't know who reported these to be less than stellar for $40 but I for sure disagree as I'm finding them to sound great especially on this DAP

 

Man, now there's a track to give my age away eh

 
How they look on? As George of the Jungle said "Pretty Darn Good"
