Hi, this pair is in excellent condition apart from some slight letter discoloration. I don't think they need a presentation on how they sound. They are simple marvelous and scale incredibly well with any improvement on the chain. They are the Japan version and come with the Sony 7N OCC cooper...

Are these portable R2R dac's really comparable with desktop units? I've red a bit on the Hifiman one but am reluctant to purchase them.

Getting back to audio pleasures. I own a Theta Gen 5, curious to know if it still holds it's own against more modern dac's of today. I have also a Hugo 2 and I can tell that even with HQPlayer it sounds flat/2D in comparison. I'm curious if someone has compared old R2R to HugoTT2.

Has anyone compared the M9 to the IER Z1R. How do they fair in the bass department against each other?

Recently purchased the ZX700. I like it's sound in general but compared to my ZX500 it sounds a bit bass light. Is it me or it really is the case?

Sony EX1000 in mint condition, one of Sony's best in-ear's'ever produced. For new head-fiers I would suggest to read on them. They keep up with the best of the best of nowadays and imho still beat good part of them (read bass texture and imaging). Full retail box with original accessories and...

Yes I agree with you, it was just an interpretation of what he decribed on the video. I crave soundstage too.

I believe what he meant was the sound stage is a function of the resolving ability of the spatial cues that are already part of the recording by any DAP, IEM or sound reproducing hardware in general. At least this is what I got.

But probably you're already a bit biassed and listing fatigue may kick in after 1 hour of critical listening. At least this is what happens with me. Also if you would go and list for a few days or even a bit longer only through one source, preferably the one assumed to be better (say ZX300 in...

Till Tier 6 I guess

Cannot be more clear than this

Guys can someone share any source for such info. Sony advertises the same S-master chip powering either the ZX300 or the WM1A/Z. It's the first time I am reading about such difference and am not sure if this is the case unless we're speculating here. Albeit there is an improvement or not with...

I've red a few comments on a Japanese site and asked several times here from users that as I understood purchased them. 1 year from release and 0 impressions. Here on head-fi hype trains needs way less to start. Considering how much interest the Kaedes I and II generated I was expecting a bit...

So good to be lazy these days:)

Sunday?
