SONY IER-Z1R
Okay, this might have been discussed quite a bit. But this thread is 982 page long, so let me ask please. I am considering Sony IER Z1r, Senn IE900/ 600, and Sony M9/ M7. Not limited by price, but would like to get one and stop thinking for a few years. I enjoy high frequencies if they are not...- tgh5000

Schiit Yggdrasil V2 upgrade Technical Measurements
Since Yggy has a lot of components inside, and resistors, capacitors and other components are not guaranteed to be extremely precise, I don’t think two Yggys will sound exactly the same. If they wanted to guarantee the same performance in all units, QC would have to be very tight, and a lot of...- tgh5000

Topping DX7 - DAC and balanced headphone amplifier
May be somewhere in this thread it is has already been answered, but I couldn't find it. Is there someone who owns both the Jot and DX7s and can compare their sound quality with respect to HD 650?- tgh5000

Bose QC35 Wireless Noise-Cancelling Headphones
Hi! I am considering the Sounklink II. Do you still like them after about 6 months? If possible, could you give the sound impressions compared to the QC 35? And do they provide some kind of passive isolation? Thanks!- tgh5000

Sennheiser HD 300 Pro Review and Impressions Thread (HD 250 Linear Revival )
Hey Guys! Is HD 300 supposed to be better than HD 280 and worse than HD 380 Pro? Or is it supposed to be better than both? I used to own the HD 280s, and really liked them. However, if HD 300 is not supposed to be better than HD 380s, then I might as well by the HD 380s now.- tgh5000

Help me choose between HD 598 and 599.
Hello, I am torn between HD 598 and HD 599. I used to own the HD 598 and enjoyed them quite a bit. After many headphones later, I feel HD 598's sound signature suits me the best. I also stumbled upon the HD 599 and learned that they are slightly bassier and have slightly altered sound...- tgh5000

Audio GD NFB-11.28 vs R2R 11
Hi! I currently don't own any amp. I used Magni 3 for a brief period, and didn't like the paring with my HD 600. So sold it. I fed the output from my Macbook Pro to Magni. There was no DAC. Now I am looking for an amp again, and confused between NFB 11.28, Schiit Jotunheim and the Schiit...- tgh5000

Sennheiser HD 600 Impressions Thread
Hello! I recently bought Monk Plus, and I already have HD 600s. To my surprise (and to my sadness), the Monk Plus sounds very similar to HD 600s and feel slightly more engaging. This makes me feel quite sad. I can notice that HD 600s are cleaner, but for $5 vs $286, I expected more. I must...- tgh5000

[2021 Update] Venture Electronics (VE) Monk V2, Monk Plus & Monk Go: a $5 earbud that taking the world by storm!!!
Dear Monk Plus community, I absolutely adore the Monk Plus sound. This made me sell many of my audio gears. However, sometimes the big face of the bud seem uncomfortable. So I want to get another pair of earphones/ iems that have similar sound signature as Monk Plus but with better sub-bass...- tgh5000

Sennheiser HD 600 Impressions Thread
Just ordered my HD 600. Now looking for a short cable (1.2 m ~ 1.5m). I saw some on Ebay and Amazon. Didn't particularly like them. Are there other options out there? Could you point me to some? Not looking to spend more than $25. Thanks.- tgh5000

Sennheiser HD 600 Impressions Thread
I was watching Tyll's review on the 650/ 600 the other day. He said the 650s are a bit more "resolving." What does "resolving " mean in this case? Many others say the 600s are a touch "brighter." Aren't "more resolving" and "brighter" the same thing?- tgh5000

Beyerdynamic DT 1990 PRO - Beyer's open-back mastering headphone
I tried my first Beyerdynamic headphones- Beyerdynamic T90. I borrowed it from a friend to get a feel of the treble. This was to make sure that when I eventually get my DT 1990, the treble will be something I can handle. The treble of the T90s don't bother me. However, I find the top end a bit...- tgh5000

Oppo PM-3 : The Portable Planar - Impressions
Thank you a lot for trying that piece of music for me. And on the side note, I KNOW. This morning I woke up after a nice sleep. I started playing "The Master" on my iPad.

Oppo PM-3 : The Portable Planar - Impressions
It might be a little strange question to ask. Could any of you listen to Jonny Greenwood's "The Master" and leave impressions? Without having an opportunity to listen to the headphones, your impressions are all that can guide me. If the PM-3 can reproduce this album, and My Bloody Valentine's...- tgh5000

Oppo PM-3 : The Portable Planar - Impressions
Hi! I borrowed them once. I found the midrange and bass to be golden. What I didn't like was the treble. Now few months have gone by, and I miss them. At that time I didn't try them with any amp. Do you think the treble response gets better with an amp?- tgh5000

How are the mids on 1990s compared to HD 600s? I am a fan of female vocals (e.g. Adele, Norah Jones etc.). This is one thing I am not yet clear about the 1990s.- tgh5000
