No bass boost needed. Even some of my historically "thin" recordings sound great. Really happy with this combo. Brings me great joy whenever I put them to use. Have a long plane ride tomorrow and this makes me look forward to  it.

Fantastic! Thats just the information I needed. You've helped me become poorer. Thanks. 

I have been told.. browse classified forums, you may find a treasure for a bargain (f.e an used walkman ZX2 for less then 800 USD)

With my HA-2 purchase, the Oppo ---> DN1K setup is my work rig.

Looking forward to using it without the bass boost on those, which would be overkill.

I used bass boost to drive my MDR-1R cans to the level of my XBA-A3 IEMs (close to neutral)
 
Hope my new ZX100 walkman cna drive those fine as some say the ZX1 /ZX2 can

What's everyone's preferred method for stacking these? Rubber bands, velcro, double-sided tape?

I use 3M Dual Lock Tapes.

Superglue and duct tape.

I use the rubber bands Oppo provided. They work fine for me.

Does this come on and off without residue?

Superglue... Lol!

Yes it comes off with no residue.
 
it's amazing how strong it is when it's locked.
 
Used it with my Hugo and my old AK240 with no issues at all.
 
Not a fan of rubber bands, they look ugly and they block some part of the DAP or phone screen.

I could not get the staples from the staple gun to go through the HA-2. Was to lazy to rent a pneumatic nail gun.

My One M8/Oppo stack could definitely stop a bullet. Haha

How durable are these against normal wear and tear?
 
My HA-2 slipped and fell 3-4 inches and hit my table... It looks fine (no scratches or anything), but maybe I'm just paranoid!
 
What are the signs of broken dac's and amps? Is it instantly noticeable, or is it something like reduced sound quality?
 
 
Thanks!

Has anyone used the Oppo HA-2 with the Fiio E12? Plan to use this combo with the HD 650.
