Combination of old and new!

What pads are those? Do they affect the sound much?

I think they are called yaxi pads. They don't effect sound but they are more comfortable

You can also buy them directly off the Yaxi website. They give you a discount when you buy in pairs. That's where I got mine. Google it, it's easy to find.

Edit: just checked eBay and it is Yaxi in Japan. Offering the exact same deal. They must have expanded at some point in their marketing, cuz they used to be solely off of their own site. I'm buying me another set right now on eBay.

Thanks, good to know.

I did think of that famous song, but the title is because of the outside color of the IEM affecting what a person thinks of it. Strangely it’s both cool and warm (neutrality) simultaneously, due to some frequencies having a cool tilt combined with slight distortion we refer to as warmth here. It actually walks the middle so if the Noble Encore was orange maybe we would think of it as warm. Cheers!

Coincidentally my next review is titled “Crimson and Clover” due to the warm but yet organic green aura of the review IEM?

Now that is what I´d call a crazy cool interconnect!
Speaking of which: Do you guys have a good suggestion for a short interconnect cable (3.5mm to 3.5mm) between my DAP and my portable VorzAMP that would carry the "best" sound quality from one device to the other?
What about this one? http://vorzuge.com/product/oyaide-audio-cable-and-connector/?currency=EUR
Or are there even "better" ones? Thanks for any help in that regard!

My trusty setup for extended trips:

LG V20 -> Lightspeed Revive (USB Regen + Reclock) -> GO2Pro Signature EX -> Audio Zenith PMX2 rev. 2

Summer is ending but the tunes aren’t. Here’s my current patio setup. IPad Pro streaming lossless hi-res to the Dragonfly Cobalt (maybe you can see it’s lit up blue) and then to the mighty CustomArt FIBAE 4.

How are you liking the cobalt? Is it a dap/dac replacement for you?
