LH Labs Geek Out v2 Discussion Thread

[perdigao]

Does the V2+ Infinity and GO2A Infinity sound identical?

 
Yes, to me they sound identical!! .... Just got my Go2A Infinity back yesterday and I absolutely love it .... 
 
I was using the V2+ Infinity for the last 3 months, but due to charging issues it was not ideal.  It would die on me on the middle of a conference call because the V2+ battery would not charge at the rate it was being discharged. 
 
The GO2A Infinity sounds absolutely amazing in balanced (sames a the V2+ Infinity).   It did not sound this good before I sent my Geek Out V2 Infinity for the upgrade.  
 
It looks like LH Labs is finally improving the business to match their sound quality!!!  I've open a ticket to follow-up on my GO2A last Thursday, got a response almost immediately and the device arrived yesterday.
 
GO2A SOUNDS AMAZING with my TH900  in balanced !!!  I love the new RED case and love the sound quality!!!!   Just don't touch it  Super hot ...

Agreed on the balanced. I'm using the 2A Infinity on balanced with my Senn 600s and they sound stunning.

Thanks for the reply. My GO 2A Infinity actually arrived yesterday but I wasn't at home at that time and just found out this morning. Can't wait to listen to it tonight. I unpacked it this morning and totally agree on the red looking fantastic

So I guess LH Labs is working on rebuilding their product page for this? It's not listed at all on their site.

From my initial listening last night (a couple of hours) I find the V2+ to deliver better quality sound, especially from the SE output. More refined treble, more air between instruments and slightly better clarity are the differences that I noticed. From the balanced output it was much more difficult to hear differences.

These are early impressions so take it with a grain of salt...

Still, performance from the 2A is very impressive and enjoyable for the price.

I'm going to do a full review of the 2A with much more comparisons so we'll see what my final verdict is in a couple of weeks

  I can't wait to see what happens with the Geek Out V3....

where'd you hear about that? they'll prolly just use the new generation of ess chips, finally implement ssm, refine the electronic components to whatever is the hottest/newest next year. maybe integrate the revive (if it's not already).

I honestly don't know if I was supposed to say anything about it, but I wasn't told NOT to....all I know is that it's in the R&D phase and almost done. I heard that from Larry. Literally all I know. I'm sure it'll be amazing whenever it comes out.

Dunno what to tell you. I'm very happy with Geek Out products.

Does anybody know if the 3.5mm TRRS pin assignment of the V2+ (pic below is from the V2+ manual) is the same for the GO2A, too?
 
 

 
Thanks in advance.
