Headstage Arrow HE: Reviews, Impressions, Perceptions & Sensations
Dec 8, 2015 at 3:50 AM Post #3,691 of 4,123
You obviously know your **** and I'll refer to this post when I get my 5TX. But you're basically still just using a player (a Digital Audio Player) and the 5P amp, eh? And, of course, high end headphones. My player is JRiver Media Center which I bought for $50 and downloaded to my Lenovo Win 7. I listen to it through Marshall Monitors. It blows my mind but I wouldn't mind 2 blows.

Yes, the X5 is a Digital Audio Player. But different players have different DACs inside and that also contributes to the sound quality that you'll get in the end

When you receive your 5TX, it'll probably blow you away

Hi guys, I have the Headstage Arrow 5TX and I love it!!!, I been using it paired with my AK Jr. with out any problems. But recently I acquired a LG V10 smartphone with a ESS Sabre DAC and when I connect the phone to the 5TX using a 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable I get static noise.
Is there any way I can get rid of the static noise??
Thanks!

Please confirm you are sending back an older headstage arrow to Robert in exchange. Thanks.

my 4G arrow has to go , it is the N(eutral) version.

Clean, airy , transparent - great amp but it sees no use now that i got my ZX2

Suitable for anyone wanting something cheaper than the 5G version.

check my FS , if interested

Wow this thread certainly died.
I wonder if this is a bad sign? it certainly does not seem like anyone is receiving their amps in the last few weeks.
I know I haven't heard a peep from Robert since the non-committal email last month.

I got three emails from him in Dec. The first to confirm which version I want. the second to tell me where to send my old version back to and the last, on Dec 19 to let me know I didn't have to send it back for I got the new one. No confirmation when the new one will be sent and nothing since.

I ordered my 5TX Enhanced Boost at the end of November and Robert said that it would ship sometime in December. Obviously wishful thinking... 
 
His website now says new orders shipping in January. 
 
I hope it ships soon as I have already been waiting over a month for my new order.

Waiting myself.
