Selling this great little dongle DAC that pairs especially well with an iPhone. It's in mint condition and I've used it very little since basically all of my listening these days is on my desktop setup. All original packaging and accessories are included (USB-C cable and USB-C to USB-A adapter)...- dbull12

Looking to sell these very special and limited Grado GH1s with various upgrades.

Edit: Oops, looks like 2 of the photos are too big to be inserted and have to be downloaded to be viewed. I'm definitely no photographer and these pictures do them no justice, but my zebrawood VOs arrived the other day and they're stunning! I'd say their color is more like the 3rd picture in...- dbull12

Sadly I'm letting go of this "Tourmaline" stabilized Atticus from this latest ZMF November. I'm the original owner. It's difficult for me to capture its beauty and chatoyance with my mediocre photos, but it looks a bit deeper brown in person, more like in the photo below with all the...- dbull12

Recommend a high-end DAC and amp stack to a genuinely curious objectivist
I don't have personal experience with this gear, but since all your headphones are planars based on everything I've read I think Ferrum Oor + Hypsos would be a good alternative to the Holo Bliss since its specialty is driving planars. Then for DAC there's the Ferrum Wandla but that's also an ESS...- dbull12

ZMF Verite Open
I think I'll rule out Pietus Maximus since I do like having the options of either 10 or 100 ohm OI on the iHA-6. With that said, has anyone ever compared iHA-6 to A20?- dbull12

Grado Fan Club!
Thanks so much! This is probably tough to answer given that I'm sure it will change depending on pad choice and other factors, but between the GH1, RS1x, RS1 button, and PS2000e, which would you say has the most macrodynamics/impact? And if you listen to any music where electric guitar is the...- dbull12

On a related note, would love to know more about how the GH series headphones compare to this generation's RS series or even something like the PS2000e (seeing @YtseJamer 's post about an upcoming PS2000x-ish release has me very intrigued so I'm trying to get a sense of whether that would be the...- dbull12

Grado Fan Club!
I'm very new to Grado but as others have said, I'd also recommend starting with the 225x or 325x. I got the 225x and decided pretty quickly that I was a big fan of it with the indie rock, post-rock, post-metal, black metal, 90s death metal, etc that I often listen to. I wanted to move up the...- dbull12

Cayin iHA-6 - US Tour and reviews
No noise issues on the iHA-6 with my ZMFs or with my lower impedance and higher sensitivity Grado GH1! I am curious about the new iHA-8 but it looks like it doesn't have any high output impedance outputs so maybe it wouldn't necessarily be an upgrade from the iHA-6 for high impedance headphones- dbull12

Holo Audio Cyan 2 DAC
Another really helpful post, thanks so much. I agree that there's a bit of a quality/price imbalance between the amps and DACs I'm looking at. It's tricky because I move around and transport my system somewhat frequently so I want amps and DACs that are solid state with relatively small...- dbull12

Holo Audio Cyan 2 DAC
Thanks so much, this sounds promising! I'm considering replacing my iHA-6 with a Pietus Maximus which only has SE inputs, but I'm still very interested in the Cyan 2. Since my dac1421 is SE only that would be a good option to stick with, but if anyone is able to compare the Cyan 2 via its RCA...- dbull12

Holo Audio Cyan 2 DAC
Sorry if this has already been mentioned somewhere in the thread, but would I be leaving sound quality on the table by using the SE outputs rather than balanced, or does the Cyan 2 do a better job than most DACs in that regard?- dbull12

ZMF Verite Open
Bit of a cross-post from the Pietus Maximus thread but I thought this might be a better place to ask: Has anyone had ears on both the Pietus Maximus and Cayin iHA-6 with the VO? Would love to hear any comparisons. iHA-6 has the higher output impedance from the SE outputs which seems beneficial...- dbull12

NITSCH x Schiit Pietus Maximus Release/Impressions Thread
Curious if anyone's had ears on both the Pietus Maximus and Cayin iHA-6 with ZMFs, particularly Verite Open? Would love to hear any comparisons. iHA-6 has the higher output impedance from the SE outputs which seems beneficial for something with a ton of mid-bass like the Atticus, but I'm not...- dbull12

Cen.Grand 9i-806 - the Little Silver Fox
This is probably a long shot, but does anyone happen to have listening experience with both the Little Silver Fox and the DSHA-3F (or the new Nitsch version), particularly with ZMFs?

I have Turbulent Labs headband + Nyczaj assembly on my GH1 and it's amazing! Never heard the GH2 or GH4 so I'd be curious to hear your impressions. Currently have G-cushions on my GH1.

It's possible I missed this somewhere in the thread, but does anyone know if the medium or large Grado headphone case would fit a Grado (GH1 in my case) equipped with a Turbulent Labs headband? Ideally I'd want a case that the headphones would still fit in if I also put Beautiful Audio small...- dbull12
