Anyone? :frowning2:
I'm also open to suggestions for sub400 iems for the r6 if I can do better than shures.

I really like the Sony EX800. First ones I have heard that sound as good as overear. Huge bass and wide soundstage.

So:
1.) Is there a way to find artwork for an entire album instead of song-by-song with the find album artwork tool?
2.) Is it worth upgrading my se215 to 425/535 with this player? I'm using a balanced cable right now and plan to use it with 425/535 with the r6 as well.
In settings there's an option to "obtain cover art and lyrics automatically". It defaults to off.

My vote goes to the Noble x in balanced if possible. Laid back presentation, very spacious match with the r6.

Whatever you do, don't upgrade to any of the higher end Shure models. They haven't been updated in ages and they're overpriced. Unless you can find them second hand at a step discount, you'll get more bang for your buck elsewhere.

Yea,
I see the 535s for $340~ and the 425s for $200~ second hand (I'm rounding off from the jpy price). So if I pick those up I'll be going second hand.

Also, I'm currently usin balanced for ny 215s and the cable works with 425/535 as well so thats why I said those.

you can do much better than those for cheaper! just go to the iems threads. get a DM6 or a fearless S4/S6 for example...

Of course, just that Joe said the update on 7 May will arrive last week or this.

So just asking for about it. If not ready yet, it good to let us know.

A stable upgrade is of course preferred.

It's coming out in stages. First is for
Any news on the update? Thanks again Joe.

Aaaah it's coming out staggered... First to Chinese R6 pros, then to international R6 pros, then to R6's... Some time within this month, I'm told. :sweat_smile:

Well, looks like we will wait as R6 is last to receive as we are international R^

Thanks Joe for the update. Please let us know when it is out for the R6s.

Cheers.
