I'm afraid I won't be hearing how great the recording is with those cans any time soon. Nice rig, as always!

Thank you
With hi res recording can improve the sound quality noticeable
All recording hang from from the master recording , if the master recording very good ,
Hi res ripping can have very good sound quality .

In my opinion is not all hi res music file better than WAV file

Cypher Labs Duet balance amp powerfull enough for the Abyss ?   Are you close to 100% volume max ? 

Hi bmichels

In term of sound quality , this set up is the best fir Abyss

But the power I turn max to 13 o clock , if I turn more than 13 o clock
I hear distortion or clipping.
At 13 is already very loaud , but I want to test the Duet until max volume
But I can not do that

Until now only ALO Rx 3 B can turn the volume to the max without Distorsion

ALO Rx 3 B max volume is like Duet 13 o clock

IMO

Rudi,
 
What music player are you using to play your hi-res files on your iPad?  I assume you can't use the stock player...

Rudi,

I use Flac Player
I bought Onkyo HF Player , but I don't know how to copy my hi res file to my Onkyo HF player

Looks like a bomber rig. A guy could detained and questioned with that setup, if someone didn't know what it was. Nice rig.

Lol I was thinking the same thing
