Tera Player is 2990 Eur see :
www.tera-player.com
I haven't tried the earphones you have but others may had.
I would choose the Tera Player first based on my sound preference and second Lotoo Paw Gold.

Okay...finally... after all this time, the Ref1 Too is in the house , my house
actually many thanks to a reputable Headfi member. I am listening to them right now out of the Tera Player. and...well I am very pleased with the sound. The instrument separation is very real and I can easily place each instrument where it is in the song. From 70's,80's,90's pop, classical, jazz, blues and rap the Tralucent Ref1 Too is a IEM very pleasant to listen to with a rather unusual big soundstage for their size, and that Bass, now I understand what others were saying about the bass.Big, strong, powerful with a big fast impact inside the music and it is present only when is the case, so the sound doesn't get at all coloured like with other IEM's. They are 2-3 steps above from any other IEM brand when used directly paired with the Tera Player IMHO.
Congratulations to Gavin for what he has created. If this sound this good with a basic simple cable....the question is:how much better will Plus5 with the Uber Too cable will sound? Well I may find out in the near future.
This is for the very first time when I do not feel the need to switch from IEM's to full size closed headphones.
Not only that I recommend this brand but also it is a must to be heard by any Tera Player owner. I can easily enjoy only this combination for a long time without other needs to look for another sound signature ( upgrades ).

Had anyone of you the chance to compare the TP with the Cowon Plenue S?
I haven't but Tera Player is unique with a different sound signature.
Analogue,black background and organic.Haven't heard anything like that in any music player i tried, and i tried many.
Small,portable and great sounding amplifiers for the Tera Player?
Planning to try the Ether C Flow with it and the player itself doesn't have enough power to drive them properly.

I have Corda Quickstep and can highly recommend it. Does not color the sound of Tera at all. Having said this I hardly ever use it since I'm listening to Tera exclusively with Tralucent IEM's where I don't feel anything else is needed.

I just watched that cool little timelapsed video of Charles building a stealth player
Has that video been on the site for long? Never noticed it before.

When it comes to pure SQ quality considerations, LPG and Plus5 with uber too are my top choice (especially with DSD files - LPG is truly outstanding with those). However, because of astronomical cost of uber too and LPG being larger and generating some heat (so not as good in pocket as Tera) that combo is mostly for my stationary listening (ie. train ride to work every morning, or use at my desk at work). I use Ref 1 with Whiplash cable with my Tera most of the time for true mobility (walking around and/or NY subways) - whiplash cable sounds great as well - to me with Ref 1 it sounds better than stock gold/silver, and it's perfect as far as ergonomics.

The video has been on his website for a while now, and i mentioned about it in 2014 at the begging of the thread.
I watched few times at at normal speed and really enjoyed the effort he puts into making them.
Thank you Tgdinamo- i would look out for that amplifier.

Vorzüge Duo or Vorzüge Pure. Size wise and sound wise very good synergy with TP...don't forget to get an Uber interconnector cable from Gavin for best results.

Never heard the Tera, but the Cowon P1 is probably the best sounding dap I've owned or heard. I'd like to ab it with the LPG and zx2 again, but from memory I prefer the P1, which is very close to the S in sound.
Louis, I've always been interested in those amps, they look amazing. Plus, gotta love German engineering.
I have the same combo (almost - I have a stepdance rather than the more modern quickstep). Great. I have owned my Tera player for five years and am constantly delighted by it. Yesterday I paired it with a set of HD800s (with Heimdall cable) thinking that it wouldn't be a great pairing. I ended up smiling during the whole listen. I also own a Chord Mojo which is also great.. but the Tera has a very natural presentation that helps me listen to the music more so than any other kit I have tried. I know there are more resolving setups (I briefly auditioned the Chord Dave a few weeks ago and will audition fully in the new year) but I have yet to find a more music loving audio player than Tera player (portable or not) if you see what I mean.
Take all my comments as honest opinion and experience. I would happily change my mind if experience dictates.

**I used the Tera solo without my Stepdance for the HD800 listen. The volume was close to max but no detectable distortion
