    Questyle CMA18 Portable DAC with Headphone Amplifier

    Haha, you did tell us! Your love for it was what made me hunt it down in the first place. What do you make of all these reports of audible hiss David? I personally don't hear it, but maybe my IEMs (and ears) aren't sensitive enough?

    There's nothing wrong with sharing opinions, but there's a way to do it that doesn't get people riled up or come off as disrespectful and obnoxious. When people start calling out your abruptness, maybe take the hint instead of coming back with even more aggression? I get that this is a...

    One last time, if you're going to start calling out established members of this community with aggressive retort, you won't be welcome here much longer. That's the last I'll say on that matter. It's not too late, just learn some basic etiquette. Or, don't. Your call.

    Blank statements like that are going to get real old real fast around here. Just some friendly advice. :wink:

    Haha, me too! Nothing gets left out the case now, and it's so convenient to have it with me so I don't have to go back and forth if I want to try something else. Yes indeed. The 'secret' to this case that all others don't have is height. It's 10cm tall (still very compact), but this means you...

    SONY IER-Z1R

    Yes, you describe the sound well. Most speak of the bass but it's actually Z1R treble that makes it the best all rounder I've heard, in my opinion. Both fits are 'correct', I can use Sony S tips for a deep fit, or M tips for a shallower seal. I get a good seal on both (easy to test seal, use a...

    Fantastic description this, and exactly how I felt about them the first time I heard them. Assuming this counts as head-fi gear: ddHiFi CZ300. Only $57, and currently loaded with well over $25,000 in audio gear, comfortably, securely, spaciously. The very definition of value.

    Hey guys, I've just published my review of Beat Audio's Billow Mk II and Oslo Mk IV premium cables here. Without getting bogged down in the cable debate, these newcomers are at least a refreshing difference to the tried-and-tested we keep going back to. It's always great to discover new...

    The Official 64 Audio Thread | apex & tia Technologies

    Sounds like it's too tight. I had my N8 refit for the same reason. Rather send it back and get it done right. 64 Audio has a very generous 30 day free refit policy. Just be sure to clearly mark where you're feeling pressure.

    Nice impressions! Wow if N30 has more note weight than CMA18P it must have MASSIVE note weight indeed. I must have a listen one of these days.

    M15i is a dongle. Comparing it to a Sony DAP is like apples and oranges.
