The S1 works great, the Thummim are easy to drive, and I even used that pairing for some sessions with the PS4. My main listening is with the PAW6000, which I love.Curious as to what everyone is using as a source for Thummim.
I sold my 1Z and only have a Sony TPA-105 and Lotoo Paw S1 now and looking for a good desktop dac/amp or dap to pair with.

I currently have a Cayin n6ii+e02, which sounded great with the Thummim (might be selling the Cayin soon though);
Hugo2Go was most excellent too.
Another vote for the Hugo2. It hisses a tiny bit, but it sounds insanely good. Other than that PAW S1 and LPGT
Thanks guys. Hugo 2 sounds good, I can get a used one for about $1100.

I’ve genuinely been considering trading my LPGT for a PAW6000 to get some cash back. The feedback for it is quite unanimously greatThe S1 works great, the Thummim are easy to drive, and I even used that pairing for some sessions with the PS4. My main listening is with the PAW6000, which I love.
I paid 1450$ for a brand new one. You can get crazy deals on the Hugo2Thanks guys. Hugo 2 sounds good, I can get a used one for about $1100.

The S1 really is a beautiful device.
The LP6K’s also on my radar, LPGT’s a bit out of my price range atm lol.

Yeah honestly I love the LPGT but for the price difference I can’t reasonably recommend it over the Paw6000The S1 really is a beautiful device.

Lotoo is quite a unique brand that makes pure music players with few add-on features like streaming or apps or such, but what they make is of a very high quality and for me personally that ticks all the boxes.Lots of Lotoo fans on here!
It is a great DAP and I genuinely think great value for money, although I would personally love to move up to the LPGT. A while back I read some of your thoughts on sources and that made me realise I have grown to value the quality of a source more and more over the years. So now I have been drooling over silly amps and DACs I can never afford and wondering how IEMs would scale on a Fidelice Precision DAC or a Dave or the likes.I’ve genuinely been considering trading my LPGT for a PAW6000 to get some cash back.

I think the day you start drooling over sources more so than you’re drooling over IEMs you’ve reached a level of emotional maturity that Head-Fi isn’t prepared forLotoo is quite a unique brand that makes pure music players with few add-on features like streaming or apps or such, but what they make is of a very high quality and for me personally that ticks all the boxes.

I think that might be true, although I realise that it is a level of emotional maturity that my wallet isn't prepared for either.I think the day you start drooling over sources more so than you’re drooling over IEMs you’ve reached a level of emotional maturity that Head-Fi isn’t prepared for

With my birthday coming up I’ve actually kinda been inspecting a Hugo TT2... I’d just like to play around with it first before committing that kind of cash to itI think that might be true, although I realise that it is a level of emotional maturity that my wallet isn't prepared for either.

Another vote for Hugo 2 with Thummim. I love the pairing and it provides pretty incredible resolution and stage dimensions. Hugo 2 is not my favorite with some other more sensitive IEMs because of hiss, but on Thummim it is great and provides a very black background. It has a little more magic than my N6ii with the E01 on AB, but I suppose it should.

I am still looking for my search and still Thummim is on the top of the list, 2nd Erlky/Odin. But all the impressions I have heard, what ticks my box is : the soundstage, goes well with all genres, and is fun sounding. I should be able to get one in Sept.
Guys in EU, are you buying it from Musicteck? How much customs did you guys end up paying?

Just curious, what is your current combo for day-to-day listening sessions?The S1 works great, the Thummim are easy to drive, and I even used that pairing for some sessions with the PS4. My main listening is with the PAW6000, which I love.

I’ll also receive the Odin next week so I’ll be able to do a proper side by side if you’re interested in that
