great review, enjoyed it a lot, seems you're a big fan of the r2r2000 but find the lpgt a direct upgrade(?)

As I said in the review, the LPGT looks like a upgrade, if you are willing to accept some reduction in directness and emotion, density and a slightly drier but more accurate, more variable sound. In addition, it provides a more pleasant and stable user experience.

However, I have to say that LPGT is still a great option when you want to hear your music as it is. No added added emotions. It is quite possible to add them, say, with the help of a cable or IEMs, etc.

The sound of R2R2k is fascinating, but it is slightly weaker technically and warmer and more analog than LPGT. During everyday use, the functionality of R2R2k was still not convenient enough for me and caused some inconvenience. So I preferred LPGT without hesitation.

After all, even simple versatility - with the LPGT, I know that anything I pair with it will sound good. And if not, then it's not a problem with the player, it's a problem with the IEMs.

And of course, at the very end, play time. I understand that the Hifiman is small, but I would prefer it to be the same thickness on both the bottom and the top, but instead have a more powerful battery that would at least give the promised 8 hours. (Also, if it was 10+, that would be a pretty big plus, I guess).

But, here is a beautiful ultra-portable summer combo - R2R2k with AK T9 ie on Linum SuperBax cable.

An excellent combination of sound and convenience, besides, it is almost weightless.

yeah definitely understandable I agree the r2r2k definitely adds a lot of emotions (which makes it all the more addicting), I sent it for mods precisely due to the battery short coming. Altho I'd argue the r2r2k definitely handles itself when it comes to technicalities when compared to something like the n6ii r01, I haven't heard the lpgt so I can't comment on that

Nice sound , but the UI.

I agree with you, because in my opinion, it definitely needs a mod like Calyx M - with an additional battery)

Is that the EE Stormbreaker cable by chance? If so, how does it work with the LX? Thanks!

It is. I personally like it. A little over the top sound wise, but I think it works great. If you can you should try it first though
