plenty in here…have fun. https://www.head-fi.org/threads/dalis-soft-magnetic-composite-driver.972243/

Im not 100% sure where this should go but I’m so stoked on these headphones that I felt like I needed to post this somewhere. I’ve been eyeing up Psb m4u headphones for a while. The latest model (m4u 9) appears to be out of stock and has been for a while; but the brown m4u 8 mk 2s went on sale...

Woah…these things are fantastic. PSB where have you been all my life? Detailed, spacious and actually make the momentum sound a bit muddy. Room feel and personalized sound work. I may do a full comparison with the momentum, perhaps in another thread after some more testing but these appear to be...

I’m the same way. One pair…no need to keep 2 around. @angelom hope someone takes you up on your offer. It’s a great deal.

The PSB m4u 8 mk 2 are on sale for $249. Plus another 10% off when you sign up for their newsletter. Been eyeing up the espresso brown for a bit and $220 something seems like a no brainer. Supposedly a wider sound than the m4u 9. Think I'm gonna grab a pair and see how they stack up with the...

Hi there! Thanks for all of the info. Were you ever able to get the final word on passive listening for the Apollo? Definitely a biggie for me. Also…would you happen to know how easily replaceable the battery on the Apollo would be if I were to run it down after a few years? Thanks so much...

That too. I laughed at the Spatial Audio comment. The io-12 (or any good headphone…BT or not) is spatial enough naturally. It doesn’t need a software gimmick.

This reviewer has gripes, but the wrong gripes in my opinion… https://musictech.com/reviews/consumer/dali-io-12-audiophile-headphones-review/ AptX adaptive and lossless are inaudible to human hearing…so that’s not a con. Plus this reviewer also says they aren’t portable. That’s not necessarily...

I agree. Thought that was strange. They’re totally portable. I do agree with everything else she says however. In fact I generally like her headphone reviews.

Here's what I use. It looks crazy but remember this is for passive (powered off), wired only

If you’re listening wired / powered off the headphone DSP is disabled and any preset eq you have saved in the app will not apply because the headphones are turned off. So yes…at first listen, they will sound bad. However…you can (and should) eq separately (Peace, poweramp etc.) to get them to...

We’re already there

While I would love to travel abroad at some point in the near future it’s not happening anytime soon unfortunately. Maybe in 2026 for the eclipse. By then who knows… they may be on the next version. lol

that’s not good press for the Dali…especially for those of us in the US where there’s a $600 difference between the focal and the Dali. I personally wouldn’t buy the focal due to its lack of passive listening. Dali also has an ip rating. But, as always with the Dali, it goes back to the...
