The Pioneer phones are very good. I also use the Twau cable by Whiplash just to push them above and over the edge. lol 

I know it is OT, but what headphones would you feel the Pioneer can keep up with?, HE 1K, LCD 4 ....

Does this mean it's balanced, or does it use normal TRS?


I just bought an AM5 I must say there I only a very slight improvement. The separation and sound signature is almost the same as the stock amp. Maybe I'm expecting big power like from a desktop amp but with this Im not getting it. This new AM6 will this only drive iem,s? I have a pair of He 400i,s

Hi, These may already have been answered but I can not find them in here.
I got the X7 and updated the firmware to 1.9.1. There are a few issues I seem to be having.

The Line/coax out. When i connect this to the car stereo the power seems terrible and nothing compared to the X5ii. The other issue is when i disconnect the cable from the Coax the player switches to a different random album and starts playing in the backround, If I didn't put my ears to the headphones i would not know. So the unit has to be powered down completely.
Any advise would be great as its becoming a issue with me and I may just return it.


Are you using the stock music app?

Are you saying the AM5 won't drive your HE 4001? I'm pretty much blown away by the power the AM5 puts out. Maybe you have a faulty unit?

Hi guys,
 
Any suggestion on a mid range headphone for use with my X7 at home? how is the match with Oppo PM-3? anyone using this combo?
 
I also heard about Philips Fidelios, Hifiman HE-400S, other alternatives up to the price of PM-3? they don't need to be foldable as I don't intend to travel with them, for that I have my IEM's.
 
Regards

If you're looking for an incredibly accurate, inexpensive set of cans, I can't recommend the M40X enough
