I just want to say, I am loving the pairing of Topping DX7 with my Elear. It provides so much more balance and clarity without losing the Elear's signature bass!!
Just tried the trial out of curiosity. Was hoping it supported wasapi event for Foobar, but I can only get it to play on things like regular windows sounds, Amazon Music, etc, so that kinda sucks. I feel like it sounds really processed, whereas when I toy with the Graphic EQ plugin, it does a better job of what I feel are some of the Elears shortcomings... O well, if anyone can tell me how to get it to work with foobar, wasapi or otherwise, I'd greatly appreciate it.There have been several recommendations, as well as some criticisms, about Sonarworks "True-Fi" software. Here is a recently posted short review from John Darko at Digital Audio Review (DAR) about his brief experience with the software during CanJam Europe 2017.

Yeah I noticed the graphical curve turn the response flat...I was just curious as to what it did to "correct" the sound. Thanks.It's meant to give a more accurate flat response, which kind of takes the 'character'/signature away from them, so it's not for everyone. I use their reference 4 plugin for studio work when I need a flat response, and just use EQ when I'm just using the Elear for general listening.
The Reference 4 plugin will work with Foobar, it's more expensive, but the latency is significantly reduced, among other benefits.

I' be interested in trying the Clear pads on my Elear in the future having read that Jako, thanks, aesthetically a miss match but it is about the sound for me, mostly!
Can I do a search on a single thread? ..... This one' getting so long now.
Excuse if this has been asked. ... I'm running mine off of a Mojo portable while staying with family / friends etc.
I was thinking its might be nice to have a DAP for them. Smaller form and a single unit opposed to my Galaxy Tab S2 / iPhone to Mojo combos. Plus player software for me is not really consistent, can be a right PITA! ....... Not for Qobuz / Tidal streaming (although that may be nice I suppose) I use the Tab for that but for my ripped / purchased high res loss-less files. Not really needing fancy bells just top notch SQ and power with headroom.
I enjoy the Mojo sound with my Elear, to give you an idea what suits me. Anything DAP wise to compare or even better it in terms of SQ?
Around the 500 quid mark ....... My files are most every resolution including DSD. ....... Cheers!
Ok, so no one can recommed a DAP about 500 that compares favourably with the Mojo SQ then ?
I've heard the Elear on two Violectric amps, the small one and the totl in the current line-up (can't remember the names, always struggle with Violectric's amp names).Hi, anyone using Elear with Violectric headphone amps (V100, V200)? how's the match? I've been looking at Schiit offering but those Violectric seem technically and specs a way superior, I guess that can be translated to SQ too (dynamics, power, SNR, etc)?
Tubes, man. Tuuubes.
Ok thank you, exactly what i needed to know, cheers!Nope. You're trying to find a $500ish device that acts as a transport, dac, and amp, and trying to find comparable sound quality to that of a $500ish dedicated dac/amp. Doesn't seem to exist at the moment, but give it time.
Tubes are sweet but I prefer SS amps because tubes will make my elear sound too creamy.Tubes, man. Tuuubes.
Depends on the tubes and the amp. I have heard some crazy good dynamics with tube amps beforeTubes are sweet but I prefer SS amps because tubes will make my elear sound too creamy.
