      Couple weeks in of listening with the balanced cable... the Ananda can be technically impressive sometimes. Occassionally there's an...

      2.5mm to 3.5mm adapters arrived so I can use my HEX balanced cable on the Ananda now. It is interesting to compare the results. Sounds...

      My Ananda arrived. So now I get to compare against my rose-colored memory of the HEXv2 from 4 months ago. It sounds... quite a bit...

      Your posts were the main thing that made me reluctant. Ultimately the Ananda is well-vetted. The XS is not. I could get it and discover...
