Hi all,
I'm quite a new member of head-fi and also ST. I managed to get a demo-unit with a reasonable price and have been enjoying it a couple of months with my ibasso DX320 with amp12. The sound quality is great both wired and wireless. I upgraded from Beyerdynamic Amiron Wireless, which were good, but more for the home use, and I needed headphones for travels. The only thing I miss from the Amiron is the trackpad that worked well. In ST the trackpad is too sensitive, and moving from one track to another or back doers not work, and it's very easy to accidentally pause or play the track. Also the transparent mode in the trackpad does not work well. The reviews applause the HQ mode in ST, but I feel that with my ibasso the normal mode sounds better and more real, like wired.
When wired I use the balanced 4.4mm connection (the amp12 has only 4.4mm balanced). However, the attached cable is 3 meters long and for my travels it is too long. I have tried to find a shorter balanced cable, but without success so far. So I would appreciate any hints on from where could I get a shorter balanced cable for my ST preferably from Europe. I mainly use ST wireless, so I don't need a handmade supercable. One with a good price-quality ratio would be most welcome. Thanks for your help.
