OH MY. ANOTHER HONGKONGER. GLAD TO SEE YOU AROUND <3 真係估唔到E道都會有香港人。:) Nice rig btw. How much does it cost in total?

Hello! Also good to see another fellow Hong Konger!
 
The Rig costs about 15000 without the headphones.
The Shures are about 3900. My most recent cable I bought in Japan was around 2000 dollars. If I'm not wrong that is 8 core, 6n pure silver cable. In this photo the pure silver was my previous one which is about 800 dollars but I modded the end to balance plug. 
 
Hope this helps!

Just got my 901, have you had a chance to try your 901 with the wagnus epsilon s? Would love to know how you feel about that because I ordered a wagnus. Thanks

 
Nope :frowning2:. I tried the Wagnus with my former RWAK100. It's a nice amp. I do like the sound of it very much. I'm just not so keen on the size, battery life, and price :p.

Are those MH335DW? The cables look a bit different from the stock.

How's the sound of the elekit with the combo?
Looks pretty cool!

 
The cable is a Tralucent silver/gold terminated for the FitEar. Of the 3 cables I have with me now (the standard 001, 000, and this), the Tralucent is the one I feel is most suitable for my preferences for the MH335DW. But it doesn't really stop there...I really want to try a pure silver on the MH335DW. I find the IEM to be a little too bassy for my tastes and want a cable to make the IEM a little more tonally balanced.
 
The TU-HP01 actually works -very- well with the MH335DW as it's a somewhat mid/treble focused amp. So it's great with my 335 and TG!334. I don't really care much for it with the Ocharaku Kaedes however.

Thank you AnakChan,
Very interested in Tranlucent cables.
Many posts give great impressions on their high quality.

TU-HP01 looks very nice (slim and red) and worth searching for.

I've been using Poweramp with the S4 and its been working well with USB audio so I was jut wondering how it sounded... Thanks though!


What DACs have you driven with poweramp? I managed to get the standard music player to output digital audio to my stationary tube DAC, but does poweramp also feed portable DACs driven by the phone's output voltage? I thought only USB Audio Recorder Pro could do that... Maybe I should give Poweramp a try then?

With my Galaxy S4 I've used an xduoo DAC/amp... though with other USB DACs it seems to be very picky...
