Why there are no reviews in Head Gear section?
Does this dac/amp suitable with sensitive Campfire Audio's IEMs?

Probably because nobody have ever made one.
No idea about how it works with CA iems but it works great with my IER-Z1R and JH13 though I primarily use it with MDR-Z1R

CA IEM’s do not hiss at all with TA, however the output impedance is on the high side so you will lose a fair bit of bass quantity from the likes of Andromeda and/or Solaris.

Thanks! But how does bass quantity connect with output impedance?

There has to be a match between output impedance on the amp and the headphone. Especially on multi unit balanced armature in ears a high output impedance will skew the frequency response on the headphone

Hi all, im a frequent headfier, i just purchased a TA- Z1HES intending to use with my Z1R's. Firstly can i use my LG V60 into the micro usb/ walkman port?
Secondly i have all my FLAC files on a pc using Media Center 27. Which will be the best way to connect? (I use an ASUS Essence STX 2 soundcard)
Many thanks in advance

The Walkman input is just an USB micro B plug. I've tried connecting my Android phone to it and was able to play music over the TA-ZH1ES.

How were the results using your phone?
Im not clear as to do this or use the micro usb b on the rear. Any help will be much appreciated (i will purchase a single purpose cable depending on the best outcome)

The USB-B on the back supports higher sample rates than the Walkman micro-USB on the side.

For anyone interested, the TA-ZH1ES service manual.

So the FPGA inside is EP4CE55U19I7N, which is one made by Intel.

What does anyone use to stop dust entering the mesh on the top ?
I will go crazy if i get any in there (and no i'm not ocd)

I keep a small cloth over it 100% of time when not in use.

I better do that right now. Thanks for the tip
