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...- bobthedespot

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 :(- bobthedespot

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.- bobthedespot

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...- bobthedespot
