Lol, then isn't it basically a glorified iPod shuffle?

Horrible UI DAPs can't redeem themselves with amazing SQ, IMO. What's the point of it can't function properly?

Agreed, imo this is another case of audiophile standards being too low

I tried the QP2R and the hiss was unbearable with the VE8.

Okay...it is obvious you have never used it, I am not going to waste the energy.

The biggest problem is with sensitive IEMs, it will hiss.

@chupa

literally the A12t. It's a bassier, darker A18t. BA bass texture with near dynamic levels of power

I had the A12 way back when they first appeared on kickstarter - upgraded to the a18's. I regretted it ever since, thanks for reminding me

Hey folks, 'wanted to share my first look at Effect Audio's new flagship Code 51 cable. It's a ridiculously expensive cable that only the most fortunate (and least sane) of us would consider sensible. But, at the same time, the performance it brings to the table can't be denied either. Either way, here's the article. Enjoy.

A first look at the price and now I'm blind.

You can expect several replies of people telling you, yes it's expensive but bla and bla and bla.

This DAP has my jaw on the floor really...



This is yet another plane field, LP6K is fantastic already but the LPGT is like 8K TV screen vs 4K, most people probably don't need it but it's breathtaking when you have it... the macro and micro dynamics are just a big step up, as well as resolution, headroom and authority... and overall refinement especially with XRC on recordings for which there are no master quality I rediscover...

I have owned WM1Z and I have the N8 on loan but this takes the cake for me.
I'll do some N8 A/B while I have the chance...

I am in awe... I can't thank Andrew at MusicTeck enough...

This is a dream come true
I am set for a good while now...

Anyone interested in a universal VE8: https://www.head-fi.org/threads/fs-vision-ears-ve8-reshelled-universal-fit.924137/

might be a weird question, but is there any music that you guys know was recorded with a particularly good microphone? Not asking for the sake of music.

Define good. Microphones used in studios nowadays range from $200 all the way to $20000, and they can all be considered good.

oh, actually, I realize I should rephrase my question. What's a track that highlights texture of instruments and voices? without smoothing over the main voice of covering it up with a other noises?
