[H20Fidelity]

  I know it's not much compared to some of the rigs on here, but this one's mine and I like it!
 

 
 
All rigs are appreciated here! (just ignore the really 'really' expensive ones)

Nice pic! Do you really leave it naked? 

Thanks. the pic was taken with my Samsung Galaxy S5.
For the moment I lug around my A17 naked. I often think about getting a case for it but then I look at it and see how good it looks without one I forget about it for the moment and save myself some money

Whenever I look at rigs I can't afford I just keep thinking "It isn't worth it. It won't sound that good." until I believe it

Thanks.

Thanks. I always try to go for "Simple yet excellent" whenever portable stuff is involved.

My idea of retro. Rio Karma from last decade.

I would never bring them out but they're so light, they're portable!

I carried it to my desk, so somewhat portable.......AK100ii->optical->iFi idsd Micro->HD800

Nice how different is the sound without the iFi?

 

[floydfan33]

Haven't tried the HD800 straight out of the AK100ii yet. I have compared the iFi to the AK100ii with my Angies, and I would say it's a wash, both sound excellent, so I likely wouldn't pack it with me if I'm using the IEMs.
 
updated: Tried the HD800 straight out of the AK100ii and while there was more volume than I anticipated, there was a huge falloff in dynamics. Everything seemed sluggish and flat.

I have the AK100ii, and have been thinking about the Angies are they as good as everyone says they are would you say there overall a flat sound signature.

With the SE cable I would call them neutral to warm with the bass attenuation at the 0 position, but dialed up they become much more "fun". I found them a little more clinical with the Balanced cable, but that could also be a function of the slightly less power output in balanced with the AK100ii.

Looks like a good pairing. Cheese and wine.

I know this is WAY off topic (sorry), but how are the Ho's LS3/5As? I've been thinking about getting a pair before returning to Europe. There also seem to be a few manufacturers in Guangdong selling 15 ohm LS3/5A clones (but goodness knows where they get the fake B110 and T27...).

I didn't even know you could still source Bextrene!
