NOSTALGIC! Makes me wish I kept my yellow Sony Walkman Sport or whatever it was called.

Bought an Fiio X1 and an e11k along with a pair of Havi B3 pro1 in april which started my addiction... Since then sold that and have managed to pick up an Fiio X5 hooked up to an Oppo HA-2 (fabolous sounding) along with B&W P7 through auction and when using IEM:s I have the B&W C5 series2 (God I love them. They seemed made for my ears!)
 
Got to change the interconnect though. Can anyone recommend me a short one with straight connectors ~$50? Estethics is a plus...

Nice a cassette player my daughter would say what is that.

Definitely a big jump from SE846. SQ wise can't complain, and it sounds best out of HUGO. It definitely scales better, I can't hear the same level of jump when using other sources like AK120 II/iPhone. I would like to still audition the Angie universals, people are saying it's a souped-up IE800. 

Fit could have been better. Even though the housing is small, the angle of exit of the wire makes it not sit completely inside concha (like shure's, westone's). Fit is also shallower (not a problem for me), due to shorter nozzle stem. If you're spending $1.6K on these definitely go customs. 

I like the SE846 but feel they're overpriced for what they are. I think you can get better performance from IEMs costing quite a lot less money

It took me a while to find the right tip for my N6 but I'm glad I stuck with it. People say the nozzle is short but I had the opposite problem. Would love to hear the K10 in either of its forms, but yeah, for that outlay I'd definitely go custom.

Going back to an old school portable setup just for kicks. I know a lot of people hate on cassette tapes because they don't match up to the sound quality of digital or vinyl but there's something about tapes that sound special. While they aren't as detailed or clean sounding, they sound more live and exciting due to their faults if that makes any sense. Anyways cassette listening has been a nice break from my digital setup, seeing the tape moving in there has always fascinated me as well.

@acian - What cable is that on the K10?

 
Got the cable from Ted over at headphone lounge. Silver Litz.

DX90 in silicone skin with 4400mah battery, Tzar350 and 8 microSD cards all in a Peli1010 box

what battery did you use for your 90?

Nice Passport! That's my daily driver as well but I can't vouch for its sound quality I'm afraid haha.
 
 
Oh please no! The day Blackberry goes android is the day I will abandon BB.
 
BB OS is made for business and productivity. Android doesn't come close in terms of those necessary features offered by BB OS.

 
hahaha i do find the that it sounds too thick - but this is my rig for the meantime. once my "customed" customs arrive, i've switching back to my daps  
 
i just loaded Snap - so that i can still have access to my favorite utilities in Android.

I'm not him but you can use i.e. this 4400 mAh battery for your DX50 or DX90 works perfect: http://www.amazon.com/Warranty-Replacement-Extended-GT-I9300-EB-L1G6LLU/dp/B009GVG8FA/
 
I have almost 26 hours playback on my DX50 with medium gain setting with my CIEMs: http://www.head-fi.org/t/679473/the-ibasso-dx50-thread-latest-firmware-1-9-3-july-2-2015/17235#post_11675217

In General you need to remove the metal back cover in any case. With the iBasso silicone case is it possible, but look quite ugly. I use a old iRiver HD320 leather case which fits perfect and looks great. Please follow my links I wrote before for pictures.

Sorry it's been a while you lot lol. No big changes here as I've been throwing money at other things lately. This is my favourite rig at home for now. Fully balanced all the way. I think my next upgrade is going to be a DAP capable of higher res output.

So impractical with the amp, protruding interconnect and thick IEM cable...but sounds sublime.
