Reply to review by 'justjag' on item 'FiiO X5 3rd gen Premium Hi-Res DAP'
I agree that a 2 hour difference is statistically significant but in view of the fact the manufacturers frequently overstate the battery life of their products (figures provided under ideal conditions), and the fact that battery life can vary so greatly depending on screen usage, brightness and...- justjag

Brooko Any hiss with your Andromedas? What about the power output for driving hungrier cans? And again, can anyone comment on the USB dac feature with regards to any hiccups like random disconnects such as during periods of idle? Thanks!- justjag

thanks a lot for the info. what I noticed with the fiio daps I owned previously is that using them as a DAC and leaving them idle for a while will cause them to disconnect (especially if computer enters sleep). would it be possible for you to confirm if this is the case?- justjag

Hi can anyone comment on how well the usb dac is working? I have had bad experiences with daps as dacs before including the ak120 and fiio x3ii. some problems include: delayed audio, audio glitches, losing connection randomly and requiring reconnection. Also, anybody can compare this to the bit...- justjag

Excited to see loaded measurements of the balanced output vs the single ended one. Hopefully the new X5 will be one of the first DAPs to offer measurably superior loaded performance from the balanced output vs SE. hint hint @shigzeo- justjag

Hidition NT-6 Custom IEM Review: The Ultimate Reference?
Were they still under warranty or did you have to suck it up and pay the repair cost nonetheless? Not to mention did you notice any issues with them before you sent them back or is this a blatant cash grab by Hidition? Also how long did the whole RMA process take up to this point? Edit: I...- justjag

Hidition NT-6 Custom IEM Review: The Ultimate Reference?
Thanks a bunch for the update. Would be interested to know if AAW is able to actually fix CIEMs from another company and how much it would cost. Is your NT6 still under warranty? I am curious about what you mean by Hidition not committing to a repair. Looks like I will probably settle for a...- justjag

This is such a shame. I just went to Null Audio to demo the Hidition NT6 Pro and fell in love with it on first listen but these horror stories are keeping me from ordering a pair. Do update us on how the repair process goes and especially if AAW can do anything about the problem.- justjag

Reply to review by 'justjag' on item 'Campfire Audio Andromeda'
Great review as always, Brooko! The Andromedas are indeed wonderfully balanced and they do possess an expansive soundstage despite being a fully sealed BA design. I did note however that the upper mids are somewhat blunted resulting in a smooth upper midrange that is free of sibilance...- justjag

Campfire Audio - Introducing 2 new models Hello Andromeda and Nova
I have to say, that is one of the nicest portable looking setups that I have seen. The AK Jr with the green sleeve and the custom cable in addition to the immaculate build quality of the Nova makes for a stunner of a setup. I would get the Jr for its looks if not for its painfully sluggish UI.- justjag

Campfire Audio - Introducing 2 new models Hello Andromeda and Nova
that doesn't make any sense, you should check your settings to see if you can fix it in the software. In general, you should not detach/reattach the mmcx connectors too often as they may become loose over time.- justjag
