Also finally broke down and purchased the HD660S again. So we’ll see how that performs with the R5. Can’t wait

Yep that sure looks like leather on the edges of the openings. The dye didn't cover as much because it's blue. Poly would have uniform colour on those cutout edges.

I thought they were leather, I could smell the tannin right out of the package. That makes it a pretty good deal for 25 and some change. Especially when I paid 80 dollars for my ak sr15 case that was poly.

That's the balanced one right? It should sound fining amazing.

I bought my R5 two weeks ago in a trip to California and British Columbia, I ordered it from Amazon, and pick it up in San Diego. I am using it mainly with my travel earphones, the campfire commet, and the match is surprisingly good, I can listen them for ours, without getting tired. I like the sound of the R5. Next week when I return to Chile, I will compare it with the SR-15. I am surprised of the sound, and the performance of this DAP

It seems like a lot of cases showed up today. Mine is waiting for me at home, can't wait.

The boss told me the HD issue has been "solved". I think he's referring to the next firmware update.

HD issue? With Amazon?

HD issue? With Amazon?

Yes, and he's confirmed that it will be dealt with via firmware updates on our end.

 

[Mouseman]

Yes, and he's confirmed that it will be dealt with via firmware updates on our end.

Can you give us a hint if it's coming soon?

 

[Joe Bloggs]

Can you give us a hint if it's coming soon?

I'd just give the usual "when it's done" favored by devs but if it's already done in house...

With those 4 letters I know you have exquisitely good taste.

Yes Rush is my jam and being from Toronto I grew up with these guys. They played at my high school shortly after they formed the group (yes I am that old ). Even then you knew these guys were going to be something special.

So much good news from your end Joe that's a big wow! Thanks again for picking up our needs and addressing it! You are worth your weight in gold

Just got mine yesterday and oh my it sounds incredible-especially balanced. I am confused about the filter choices. Any suggestions? Am currently using "fast rolloff & low latency".

Best thing to do is just try them all, the changes are subtle but they are there. Generally the sharp/fast roll off has a bit more pronounced treble while the slower have are a bit more warmer.

I'm using the second one fast rolloff / compensated.

I've tried then all but can't tell much difference between them. Thanks for the response.
