    Stax: SR 002 + Srm 002 and Srm 003 mk2 + Srm 003 impression and appreciation thread

    Hey guys&girls&xyz, I am a first time Stax owner... I purchased the Sr 003 mkii + SRM 252S Set. I was wondering about the energizer connection. I will connect it to RME ADI 2 Pro FS AD/DA converter. Is there a general sweetspot for Stax energizers in terms of how much level should be sent to...

    Review by 'sigi' on item 'Focal Clear'

    Great disappointment. Never never never buy headphones based on reviews, especially don't trust the major headphone reviewers, the "stars" of the headphones review world on Youtube. They are mostly just pushing gear, reviewing headphones on loan - snake oil salesmen, that is what they are. I...

    the cable didn't break to pieces :) ... In my case it developed some contact issues somewhere near the left connection jack, it cuts the sound when not held in the right angle :)

    Focal Clear headphones

    please help me out guys ... I am contemplating purchasing the Focal Clear... but have doubts regarding Focal quality. (bad experience: Focale Spear, Focal Spirit Pro, Focal Shape 50 speaker, Focal Elegia - all disapointments and really poor quality) Did Focal up their game with the Clear in...

    Review by 'sigi' on item 'Focal Elegia'

    I intended it to be a tool in the studio but only after a couple of hours of use I need to send them back... The cable is not replaceable under warranty, the whole package needs to be sent back to the regional Focal service facility (I've been told that for central Europe it is somewhere in...

    Sonarworks Headphone Calibration software

    I just picked the reverb example as it has more to do with - and this is not a technical term - the sound reproduction of a headphone being more 3D ... and with SW it becomes less 3D...

    Sonarworks Headphone Calibration software

    I'll explain with an example... There is a game on Soundgym called Reverb Wizard. Three sounds are played and one has a different reverb setting - you have to catch that one. It is easy at the beginning but as you progress though the levels the differences become more and more subtle. You can...

    Sonarworks Headphone Calibration software

    I feel the same at 30% or less wet ... and the sound is far from flat there (deviations of 8-10db +- from "zero") - I think I am used to flattish sound signatures with Audio Technica R70X or HD6xx (these don't deviate from zero with more than 3db, out of the box, without any calibration)

    Sonarworks Headphone Calibration software

    I wonder if it is just me... or the change in the frequency response is fulling me? I've been doing a lot of ear training lately (soundgym) and the better I get the less I like what Sonarworks is doing... I just feel that it somehow chokes the sound stage or the sound just goes dead when...
