Hi guys, I haven't been back to head-fi for awhile. Imagine my surprise when I got back. Hahaha. I used to get daily emails with a list of subscribed threads w/ updates but those seemed to stop now. Now I get an email every time someone posts something so its really annoying now. How do I get...

  Hey dude, that's looks awesome. :) Is that over-ear or still on ear?

  Damn. That sucks man. Hope they find it. Maybe you could ask Audeze for the Sine pad specs?

  That vsonic dap reminds me of a bar of soap. Lol!

  Hmm...For me, I was able to attach the Brainwavz pads onto the Sine without any issue. I was able to seal them in the grooves w/ some effort. When they are on the head however, they do keep slipping and I have to adjust....plus they look weird. I look like one of those guys in a firing range...

  Wow that's cool. I wonder how the velours sound like.   I once tried changing the pads to the Brainwavz pads I had lying around (these are the really thick ones from mp4nation). I have to say, they did improve soundstage but the sound was a little off for me. Especially the mids where they...

  Hahahaha. Chunky chunky.

  How does it affect the sound?

  I see. Again, I find this discussion really interesting, like the "synergy" part. Not saying I don't believe it. I guess I'll just have to hear it for myself to see what people are on about. But I do agree that small, pocketable daps w/ rich features are hard to come by. Especially those that...

  Hahaha. Yup my thoughts exactly. Spend the money saved for something else. :)

  Heya, thanks for the interesting read. Very informative. Never thought of it like that (EMI, battery, UI). Just to clarify that I'm not just talking about phones in general. I'm talking about getting a cheaper dap or a phone as a music file delivery system instead of getting an expensive dap...

Sorry. Just subscribed to this thread. I've been eyeing the AK300 for sometime but the AK70 has got me more interested because of the small form factor...plus cheaper price. :)   Anyways, something has been bothering me recently. Every dap thread I've been to, people seem to pair them with the...

Hi guys, sorry if this is coming out of nowhere.   Based on the contributions here, I've finally decided to order one (without cypher cable). That was weeks ago. I ordered these directly from Audeze (at the time, they weren't backordered yet).   Has anyone ordered SINE directly from Audeze...

Hi, been following this thread lately. I've been looking for a reason to replace my Sennheiser hd25 w/ the Sine as my main on-ear headphones. But so far, I'm still on the fence buying these. Anyone compared these to any existing on-ear headphones (not the over ear ones like the pm3)? Thanks.

Hi Fungus,   Where did you buy these from? They might be an older version but I'm not sure. I'm not aware any fake hd25s.   My hd25 are also rough in the outer cups but has a 3.5mm headphone jack.   As far as I know, there are multiple versions of the hd25. I think the one you got is for...

1) 107,128 2) 106,182 3) 109,435

  Wow. That cable looks awesome. How much did you pay for it? So that I could save up. :)

  Same here. I might ask Mat to make me a similar cable soon. I have a B&O H6 and the cable size is the same as yours (3.5 to 3.5 but insert plug is like 6mm).   Has anyone ever requested this type of customized cable before?  

  Hmmm. Thanks for the input, Relic. Really appreciate it.   I agree about the X5ii HO being flat for some reason. Coming from the original X3 + E11K, I knew something was missing and was considering buying an external amp for my X5ii, like the ALO RX. Neways thanks again. Really helpful.

  Hi Relic, I was wondering how does the ALO RX improve upon the FiiO X5ii sound signature? I was actually planning to buy the RX a month ago but decided to wait for more reviews. Neways thanks!
