    Review by 'bobthedespot' on item 'Final F7200'

            This is my review of the F7200 from Final, which I picked up from them at CanJam 2017. The Sonorous VI are just about my favorite headphone ever, and I love listening to familiar music with them. When I heard that Final had some of their famous balanced armatures in a new...

    These are just great headphones... some funky issues around 5k-6k, but still my go-to pair. Struggling to find something that is as good for a replacement :(

    Very, very nice headphones; my favorite cans in the 500 to 1500 USD range.   - Owned for 6 months, would buy again immediately if I lost them - I design 100k+ speaker systems for a living, and my ears work good - Best sound I have enjoyed from headphones PERIOD   PRO: Exceptional Vocal...

    Liaow offers the xe800s for 98USD and they accept paypal. If the product is counterfeit, you can do a chargeback via paypal.

    Vivo Xplay 3S with ESS9018 and OPA2604

    Just a note for the record, the ak100 mark II uses a Wolfson WM8740 24bit DAC , not a CS4398 like the xshot. Just to be clear.

    Vivo Xplay 3S with ESS9018 and OPA2604

    Okay, so I unboxed yesterday and set up the Vivo xplay 3s. It took a while for me to change the language since there were no instructions and I had a different rom than is typically installed on the 3s for some reason... I FREAKING LOVE IT!!!!   Before I continue, I should note a few...

    Android phones and USB DACs

    Anyone know if usb hubs are typically compatible with DACs? I would love to host a large flash drive OTG and export it through the same OTG hub to my usb DAC

    Vivo Xplay 3S with ESS9018 and OPA2604

    The only advantages are the extended storage and a better camera. The Sd801 is an overvolted 800. Easy to do to an 800. Also, the xshot does not support OTG usb connectivity, but the xplay does, so I can play large quality files via usb - more than 128gb, which will always be the mobile limit of...

    Looking for direction in a few ways...

    1. I want to make a DAC that has 5 separate analog channels out, each with a separate preamp. What forum/site/thread should I join to learn more and make that happen?   2. Looking to buy a set of nice in-ears.... but I only need one ear for now. (Work a phoning job and I gotta fill the free...

    Recommendations for portable headphone rig w/crossover

    Migration  = The headphones must maintain fidelity after long use Crossover = Individual frequency band assignment to separate drivers Portability = not a rackmount Battery power = For the crossover - not something that needs a wall plug.    I am currently considering JH3a or Roxannne.   ...
