Diana: the second release by Abyss Headphones!
I have been fortunate enough to audition all Dianas today. I’ve heard them with different pads and superconductor vs stock cable as well. After that, i went for second audition and finally pulled the trigger. My favorite diana was Phi with TC pads. Second favorite was V2 w/ stock and bass...- Metalingus

iFi audio iDSD Diablo - A portable reference done our way!
Guys, i’ve received my Diablo i got from classifieds. I tried one song called Amber Rubarth - Strive and there’s a significant difference between my M2 14” Macbook Pro. First time i’ve heard increase in soundstage depth and impact when volume matched 2 sources. So far so good. iFi iDSD Diablo...- Metalingus

Sennheiser IE900 Review, Measurements, & Harman Target Talk
Experienced $100 vs. $1000 IEMs. Here are my thoughts. Few days ago i acquired these from a retailer that offers no questions asked return policy and i was lacking IEM’s so gave these a try. I find IE 100 to be great improvement over my pair of Airpods Pro 2. More refined, darker background...- Metalingus

Unveiled: Meet the HD 620S
Althought i’m happy to see different offering at sub $500. I don’t think HD 600 can be beaten. We need replacement for 800 S series.- Metalingus

ZMF Caldera - New Planar Magnetic from ZMF!
At almost the same price, which one would you pick? N3 or Tube Mini. I think being able to use stand alone device, line out, micro sd and USB DAC function N3 Ultra gives more for the money. Also I can use solid state to listen IEMs, modern tube for caldera and classic tube for HD 600. I guess...- Metalingus

ZMF Caldera - New Planar Magnetic from ZMF!
Hey everyone! What would be the ideal portable source to drive Caldera? Is Cayin RU7 enough? I'm also thinking about buying N3 Ultra, what are some good pairings?- Metalingus

Diana: the second release by Abyss Headphones!
Big Audeze fan, not listening to metal anymore but more interested in hiphop, instrumental, r&b. I stopped buying Audeze products because i live overseas and had 2 lcd driver failures. My 3.5K went to trash. How is MR with bass heavy content, is treble harsh?- Metalingus

What is the headphone that you will keep forever and never sell?
my biggest regret is selling my LCD-X, i see myself buying updated one, mine was 2019 i guess. Also, if i had VC i’d never sell it but it’s another regret i didn’t buy it. Wish i lived in US. Don’t want to pay double for it…- Metalingus

Diana: the second release by Abyss Headphones!
Here are detailed comparisons from Passion for Sound, just as WaveTheory, he rates HE1000 Stealth higher than MR at 1/3 of the price. I don't like Chi-Fi but interested to try and compare MR with this model and Empy II myself. At this price, there shouldn't be any single compromise.- Metalingus

ZMF Spring Limiteds, CanJam NYC and Estimated Release Schedule for Caldera Closed and BOKEH Open!
I’ll hopefully try a bunch of ZMF’s in Amsterdam and leave with AC or Caldera, but the fact that Zach said Caldera Closed is has favorite had me thinking again because if you can get Caldera performance + isolation = Endgame.- Metalingus

Headphones for good bass.. Trance music £200 budget
I used to have nth-1 and they were really good. Especially with edm. They have good soundstage and separation for a closed back and bass was like subwoofer. Also multipurpose headphone that looks very modern. Better value than Beyers imo.- Metalingus
