Nice setup. Is this your new Plussound interconnect? Which one is it? They have too many offerings

This is their X8 interconnect in silver plated copper, I think. Not new but I do have a juicy goody bag on the way from Plussound with some new toys.

Great. Let me know what is inside your goody bag as soon as it arrives

Hello. Haven't postes here in ages but today seems like a good day.

Double amping because, why not?

They actually don't sound awful. From what I can gather, they seemed to have come stock with the WM-R15. Not quite sure about the mic function, tho - so you can record and listen at the same time?

Quick question, what's the SQ difference on the XBA-Z5 balanced vs unbalanced?
I'm assuming you're running them balanced on that 1A

It’s mandatory really. The difference is just that there is a different amp in use with the Walkmans at 4.4mm. It is not that balanced is necessarily better? But just more power (in 4.4mm mode) with the Walkmans, hence bigger soundstage and tighter bass.
