Thanks Rudi for posting your impressions, 404 is such a fine amp and I'm also happy about its sound quality when it's driving FAD Piano Forte X-G.

[rule]
I saw that you're connecting 404 and AK240SS with a pair of adapters for your balanced ICs before, are you planning to order the flagship DHC Mini Spore 4 Fusion from Peter?

May I know the comparing between DHC compliment 4 and compliment 4 fusion?

Sound wise which want better with ak240ss, moss kobo 395 and fitear 335dw/custom roxanne?

Keeping it simple and rocking a DX50 DAP with the Ultimate Ears Reference Monitors with some custom art. Works like a gem in the trains and subways!

I like the custom artwork on the shells...

Decided to take things back to simpler times to save pocket space...



Just wish the carry case for the Laylas wasn't so big...

Awesome setup... How does the Layla pair with the ZX2?

Hiya...

Still getting used to the Laylas, after being with the 1p2 for the past month, so right this moment the treble feels a bit closed in (which I'm sure will change when my memory of the 1p2 fades), but yup, hearing textures (bass) and tones (mids) that I just didn't know where there and so many micro details, so so happy :)

Didn't like Layla with ZX2 for me though. Recessed mids not my signature preference.

Recessed?

After coming from IE800, SE846 and 1p2 the mids are really prominent...


Wow, you're the first guy I've met who described Layla's mids as prominent. I've known many who described their mids sounding like stuffed with cotton wool/tissues lol.

Summer time finally in Germany...
 

 
DX50 and Harmony 8 Pro
 
This bass is so fast and accurate I'm in love - not for bass heads but real quality bass here.

This combo are great !! I personally experienced on this. O had the same but Mass kobo 395 with ak240ss, still sourcing the best interconnect for this.

Any recommendations?

Mass kobo input is single ended?  Do you connect to the AK optical port?

Awesome... yeah, I'm sure the Layla is a much smoother experience than the 1p2. I had the Ref.1 for a while and thought the treble was quite biting, and the mids recessed. I like having a more balanced phone currently! Micro details are a good thing indeed!

  This photo has encouraged me to keep the Cayin C5 I have coming in the mail, thanks to the extra cash I got from the insurance company, and buy a stacking kit, so I can have a nice neat stack to really make my Aurisonics 2.5's sing.


Stacking kit is available on EBay for next to nothing... LINK
