    Sony's new flagship 2014 - MDR-Z7

    No I did not and I don't intend to do any test. I simply listen and enjoy music and I personally discovered improvements worthy of my investment. Sometimes it's a good thing to not believe in cables because that hobby can get really expensive and nobody's wallet is going to like that.  ...

    Nordost Cables Thread

    The Official Nordost Cables Impression Thread www.nordost.com   (The Heimdall Hat-Trick. My recent purchases after attending a local Nordost event.)     I've always been a non-believer in cables, especially since I've purchased cables from other well known brands in the past and there...

    Sony's new flagship 2014 - MDR-Z7

    What a world of difference after upgrading my power and USB cable to the Nordost Heimdall 2. Now listening to the Z7 is at another whole new level. I can't wait until the day when Nordost comes out with a cable for the Z7.   The Z7 is definitely a keeper for me, even after owning the HD800 for...

    What's the best amp for HD800

    The HD800 sounds really really good with the Woo Audio WA7 + WA7TP. It has a lot of synergy and the overall presentation is very musical to my ears.   dL

    WOO-HOOOO... WA7 "fireflies"!!!

    Just want to share my recent experience with cables. I was never a big believer that cables can change much for the value, until I've demoed the Nordost first hand. I attended a Nordost event in Vancouver, BC yesterday and all I can say is there is definitely a NOTICEABLE difference up to a...

    Woo Audio WA7TP (tube power supply) Impressions Thread

      Congrats on your new purchase! Yes it's normal to spin like a knob and it's also normal that it is a bit wobbly. This has been the only disappointing part about the WA7 & WA7TP, but I guess they cut a few corners so they can avoid building more custom parts just for the power button, or else...

    Focal SPIRIT PROFESSIONAL Impressions thread

    My oh my, this is the best discovery ever. Thanks to @HiFiGuy528    The FSP is the most neutral yet musical headphone I've ever heard. Normally there's something I can complain about the sound (i.e. too dark, too bright, too distant, too harsh, too cold, too detailed, etc.) I can't find...

    Why isn't the Focal Spirit Classic more popular!

    The Focal headphones are amazing. I've tried both Classic and Pro and I kept the Pro at the end. The Classic is still great and I find the Focal headphones to be grossly underrated. They combine neutrality with musicality, something that is usually very hard to achieve unless it's coloured in a...

    Sony's new flagship 2014 - MDR-Z7

    It is my favourite headphone at the moment. Beats out the HD700 in most areas. dL
