  Something a bit different today, Vita 2000 with Angie's =)
 

I prefer your black Jr. It looks classier to me.
Speaking from Jr, how does it pair with Angies? I saw that some people found AK100II a little weak to drive Angies. So Jr ...

  Hi @clee290, 
I own a Jr and also a C5 that I previously used with my FiiO X1. I don't feel the need to use the C5 with my SM64 anymore. Being 98Ohms the X1 was not able to drive them properly while the Jr does IMHO.
I gave a try to C5+Jr and found just a bit of coloration. Not as big as a value than with X1. With big withdraw that you loose the cool formfactor of Jr.
What is your opinion? your motivation to use C5?

Hi, sorry for the late response, I've been a little busy as of late. But yea, the C5 definitely adds some color. I agree, stacking the C5 with the Jr kind of defeats the purpose of having a slim player, but I only use the stack at home. When I'm out, definitely using the player alone.

That's a nice-looking Vita. Too bad memory cards costs a pretty penny.

I'm sure it would come more down to personal sound preferences than drivability with the Angie's. They are very easy to drive.

Yep, Angie's are quite easy to drive, even the Vita with its weaaaaak amp section can drive it OK.  Sounds great out of the Junior, but of course sounds even better through my DX90 & VorzAmp Pure II+ combo!

Good to know, thanks guys.

Can you compare the Angie and the SE846? I've tried the Angie's and love it but the cheaper SE846 prices make it really tempting. I'd really like an opinion on which one to get.

In my opinion, as long as you don't have fit issues with Angie due to its huge housing, then 100% go with the Angies.  Angie's are much more resolving, has a MUCH bigger soundstage/airy, and the mids are perfectly placed to me.  I love the SE846's as well, they are more comfortable and isolates much better.  The bass is thunderous (though Angie's can match it with the dials), and the mids are more pronounced, great for some genres.

Nice.

How does it sound?


Comparisons to HD6××/800?

No contest with the 800.

Huge departure from the HD6XX sound.

Lacks that low midrange body that give weight to baritone but amps that 3 kHz freq giving female vocals that extra push. Sounds peaky when you listen to Amber Rubarth.

Bass dial is well implemented in that the boost does not adversely affect the midrange and the 30 steps dial does the boosting gradually.
