Way too many fake Siltech cables these days and most likely those Crystal Cable wanna-be products are giving us a good laugh.
 
Being a Chinese myself, I really wanna get those Chinese sellers busted if they were not the real deal.

Hey Tupac (or anyone else who knows), not being a Hifiman user, I know nothing about their amp cards. What amp cards exist / will exist and for what purpose ? Thanks

 

[tupac0306]

About 901, so far I only know they will have
 
Standard amp,
balanced amp,
IEMs amp, which is supposed to be half efficient as balanced amp card
U235 card, power amp that has 6V outputs.
And minibox amp, which is still unknown about its function. Fang is saying it's a dedication of several years hard work from MR Three Stone.

 

[Mimouille]

Thank you ! So basically, if I use only iems, the iem card is the best ? Why is it better than regular, or.others ?

 

[tupac0306]

Well I guess that's not true for all IEMs. I think IEM amp will only work well on sensitive and low impedance ones, because other amp will just overpower them and make them sound meaty and lack of detail. But for thing like SE5, I don't see a reason how balanced amp isn't better than IEM card.

 

[Mimouille]

Sounds good...I will try the 901 as soon as I can.

But so far Tera and ak100 stage 2 pair beautifully with all my iems. If you have a balanced card, do you need balanced cables for your iems ?

Yes, you do I am afraid. 3.5 mm one

Haha it's not.. As you already see on the output of 901 picture. 3.5 mm is the only option to go balanced.

Ok great thanks
