Indeed power conditioning could be a factor too.

Following the review process of Envy by ConvinceMeAudio which is still in progress I keep wondering about the conclusions Koji and few others guys who tried his unit made so far. „Grain“ / „lack of clarity“ and lower resolution than amps like Red October but even the cheaper Cayin Ha-300b are...

Could be the Shangri La Mini that soft debuted in Munich couple of weeks ago. A banger for the price that was mentioned to the guests. I preferred it to Bravura.

Give them 150-200h. They open up a lot with burn in. If you need even more mids sweetness add Brimars D-Getter drivers or Sylvania 6sn7w But honestly We300b is peak mid focused 300b outthere, it wont get better than that. And yeah, remember to register for 5y warranty in the first week after...

This IEMs second hand price is around 2.7-3,2k :]

Very different headphones though :)

Which one?

Immanis is great, Ideally I would want to own both, but after plenty of listening sessions with Envy and Envy AE in Munich last week and already having Susvara I dont feel like I miss much and rather invest in the chain to further push Susvara to the limits than investing almost 10 grand in...

If anyone has access to both to A/B curious to read how it compares to May, stage width, depth, dynamics and slam.

yeah I think ha-300mk2 is rather similar to Envy, Envy seem to bring bit more solid state technicalities to the table, cayin is bit more tubier with its rectifiers. If slam is what you are going for wandla with those two hps is probably some of the best setups you can get sub 20k. You might...

Love mine with Envy, yet to find anything that can match it tonality and technicalities aside of 30k Aperio :) Though might want a different dac one day, when I grow up and become very rich lol In all seriousness Munich Highend fair last week was quite an eye opening experience, it became...

You might get more slam out of May than Wandla trowing in HQP with a very specific filter on a powerful pc... maybe and you might sacrifice other qualities of May doing sso. If you find Wandla lacking slam (it has a lot imho), the only upgrades I can think off is Chord Dave and Wavedream...

You are in for a ride. Replacing the driver tubes will be the next big jump. Remember to register your WE300b for extended warranty =)

Just tried with Verite Open and Atrium - zero hum.

Trying right now with Susvara - when no music is playing, its like the amp is off, its dead silent. The background remains pitch black when the music plays. Changing gain doesnt affect it in any way.
