    Hello Everyone, Are you tired of cookie cutter chip amp designs with terrible reliability that get updated every few months? ''Improving'' from 0.00000012 THD to 0.00000008 THD as if that is audible at all? Do you want something that actually sounds good and is praised by people who actually...

    Save the date: a Sennheiser CES debut

    My first flagship level headphone ever was the HD800S in 2016. I've completely given up on Sennheiser since then as it looks like they've given up on us. Never going to waste my time on another survey. Accentum Plus? This is what you're teasing on Headfi??????

    New from Weiss - the DAC 204 IN STOCK A TTVJAudio.com

    Wow. It’s like they budgeted $5 for the case design and materials 😂 Audiophiles are very heavily influenced by aesthetics and at nearly $3K I wonder how many people will want this in their listening space? They have a chance of a number of reviewers ( salespeople) gush about its magical sound...

    TOPPING EHA5 on Apos Audio: Unlock the True Potential of Your Electrostatic Headphones🎧

    Yes, if the amp damages your Stax X9000 just send Topping a quick email. They'll certainly send you a cheque for 7350 Euros so you can buy a new headphone. /S Stax will do nothing to help you either as their warranty is void if you don't use their own amps. I've followed Birgir and Kevin for...

    Hope this comes with 6 months free homeowners insurance…. 😂 On a serious note I hope this is a good performer and does well . It would be nice to have a good, cheap alternative to the Stax amps and the summit fi stat amps

    Stax SR-X9000

    If you like the way it sounds , ok…. But I’m curious. Have you ever had a home demo or quiet listening session with an amplifier like the Headamp Blue Hawaii SE or the Mjolnir Audio KGSSHV Carbon? Im not including meets like Canjam as they’re way too noisy to critically evaluate anything.

    Stax SR-X9000

    And where did you get the idea that no electronics = better sound quality? Please point me to something other than Viva’s own marketing

    Stax SR-X9000

    6moons is a well established review website. That’s 100% the real product. When you get yours you can take a peek inside. Retail price has nothing to do with quality especially for audio gear. I’ve seen multiple product tear downs where it’s obvious that far more money has been spent on the...
