100+ Head-Fier
Finally had a chance to hear the sony qualia 010 with my other amps, and the craziest thing is the best synergy was with the sony ta-zh1es. The ta-zh1es makes the qualia sound like a fantastic take on neutrality. Bass is strong and tight, sibilance is gone, treble is crystal clear and crisp, and mids have a little added bit of fullness to prevent it from sounding hollow. It's quite remarkable how well this amp/dac combo plays with sonys own headphones. Even crappy recorded mp3 music sounds great on the qualia.
