Has anyone experimented with how much input voltage FV can take? Curious if upping the voltage would change anything for harder to drive planars.

Is it the combo of the Philips and the GE you like? Or are each good on their own?

I’ve been to Bay Bloor many many times, I even lived a 10 minute walk away…. I never noticed anything special dsp wise about their headphone wall so I would guess that the headphone just really worked for you. Have you tried a Denon D2000 since? I think the headphone makes 80-90% of the...

Try taping them up? Or buy a sheet of cork and cut to size

Isn’t the DCA AMTS just from dampening? More complex but it sits in front of the driver and tunes the sound.

Hmm, your right it sounds like some protection kicking in. It’s possible because something is happening (the click) when it cuts out Schiit may have some ideas on what you could check?

Before reaching out to Schiit, are you sure it wasn’t the headphones cable or maybe a 1/4” adapter?

This is very disappointing. It would be nice to at least get instructions to open it up and the specs to source your own battery…

Haven’t been using this much since getting the Folkvangr so letting it go. To me it sounds fantastic with the original Utopia and of the rest of the Focal line up (at least the ones I’ve tired). Happy to ship anywhere but will have to discuss costs. I have the same ad on CAM if anyone wants...

There are chargeback PayPal scams, so people have been scammed via PayPal. They get paid ship the item and then the buyer is still able to get their money back through PayPal.

If you’re talking about a bit of background static I think you would need something like the ifi iemmatch. I remember the Hugo having a bit of noise with sensitive iems

With IPhone you can get Siri to adjust volume by percentage, maybe it will solve you problem?

When I was trying it it seems like how much they boost your sound corrections. I am trying it at 100% to get a feel for it, not sure if I like it more or not though

Did we get told before that it isn’t supposed to charge while in sac mode? Edit* found it from post 214 “Device not charging in DAC mode. In fact, this was a part of the design. We specifically made sure the QPM would not charge in DAC mode, as to not suck energy from devices such as...

From what I’ve tried any cable that would fit the HD700(I’ve seen this option a few times) will fit Diana

Have you tried cleaning the IPhone port and tried a different cable to make sure it’s the GOBlue?

Are you using the Diana balanced or single ended? The Woo website specifies that balanced is recommended for the Fireflies. Can you adjust your DACs output even if you don’t need it with other cans it could help the Dianas if you can increase it.

CADC

I tried the song with the original Utopia and the feeling from the drums in the beginning is really great. I also like them with punk rock and soul but don’t really listen to your other main genres… I think you should be able to get a used pair for around 1700GBP. Might be worth trying to hear...

That’s all I really wanted to know. Thanks!

Very cool! Have you measured any of the other pre-sets? Do the EQ values reflect the actual change?

You might need to change sound output settings on your Macbook https://support.apple.com/en-ca/guide/audio-midi-setup/ams59f301fda/mac

You can do it! But if you end up hearing the QPM please share how it differs from the other two

Doesn’t seem like many people have? Too bad you’re in US and I’m Canada, I would send you mine to try! I’ve been getting more into desktop so probably wouldn’t miss it too much for a few weeks.

I forgot about grados, I used to have a pair and loved them. I think I might try them again because of your comment
