Funnily people seem to be disappointed by the low price :slight_frown:, including gsmarena.

Even with the bass boost Sundara can't match the fun and musicality of the LCD2C. It's not perfect but it makes you enjoy the music that much more IMO. If you are into Sundara's sound signature, that's a whole different story. If you are not into EQ, 2C may not sound best for you IMO.

I would recommend to go with the leather pads as Audeze confirmed there no change in sound compared to the stock ones. Yes, all the pads need to be glued in.

Empyrean OG is better no second thought about it. But when it comes pure satisfaction of BASS quantity and SLAM when EQed, nothing comes close. It sounds better than many bass head headphones when you push the lower frequencies to crazy level. 2C is a guilty pleasure and it's not neutral lovers...

Well said. It's all comes down to personal preferences. Some like it without EQ and some with EQ. I personally like it more with EQ than without it.

Which DAC module were you using?

You need to use the nozzle adapters to use any tips with the bass tubes. You can get similar adapters with SpinFit CP100 or CP240, check with SpinFit. And Final Audio type e tips also come with these nozzle adapters. Check my post -...

Yes, he was having crazy number of TH900s. That's why I posted here.

Hi guys, I don't see @jmills8 posting for a long time. Anyone know if he is okay?

True, all my headphones (HD650, LCD2C and Radiance) are already on the warmer side and I like warm signature a lot. You are right, NX7 is very neutral, it doesn't color the sound in anyway but amplifying it. I like warm sounding sources, that's why I ended up getting an RS6 and not looking for...

I am very interested in this stacking. I am using RS6 with NX7 and I was wondering if PA10 would make the sound too much warm.

I agree that AK doesn't advertise proper output power but I have never heard a dedicated AMP that is less powerful than a mobile even it is LG G series. Is your source providing less output voltage or there is something wrong with your PA10. Because for some AMPs input voltage is vital...

Some people said that FD7 isn't as technical as something like Andromeda....I was laughing....what....🤣🤣 There are a lot of expensive IEMs that can't better FD7's tonality and timbre of IMO.

When using 3.5 or 4.4 inputs, only AMP will be active IMO. Both DAC and AMP will be active only when using digital inputs.

It's not possible to adjust the volume on RS6 when line out/digital output is enabled. If you are using the coaxial out on RS6, then it is just a transport and you are using the DAC/AMP of the XD05 Bal2. If you use line out, then you use the DAC on RS6 and AMP on the Bal2.

Thanks, PA10 is my next purchase for sure now.

Yeah!! This hobby of ours is not simple at all😀 Can you tell me if Diablo has any benifits over PA10 not driving power but bass control, authority and slam? I am using NX7 with my RS6 and looking at PA10 for a while.

I am not sure, Hiby or anyone who are actually using coaxial output can confirm that. Yes, it bypasses the amp and is pure digital transport. No problem.

If you use line out of RS6, it will be analog out and it will only use the amp section of Bal2. There is no balanced input on Bal2, so you can't use the balanced line out of RS6. These are the options to use RS6 as digital transport. 1. RS6 USB out to Bal2 USB in 2. RS6 coaxial out to Bal2...

I always prefer warmer and thicker sound of RS6. RS8 sounded leaner in comparison, notes have less weight. The bass was tighter but it left me wanting for more, I was pushing for more volume than RS6 and it sounded harsher in some songs. You can say that RS8 is more refined and resolving but it...

It sounded great to me from day one. I felt that it's the best DAP for me when I compared it to RS8. Does it sound better than before I am not really sure. But I am liking it more than before. If you already have RS6 and you like it, then it's only going to get better. If it's the other way...

@22 ohms 94db it requires a little more power than other IEMs but RS6 in balanced can do 690mv @32 ohms is enough to drive it to the full potential IMO.
