Best looking faceplate at $30? Though I'd like it more if it had was not purple- ish

Og Timeless is excellent for metal.

I mostly use speakers, not nearfield. My phone is connected through USB to my dac but the cable isn't long enough to reach my sitting position. Everytime I have to change songs I have to get up. I can imagine a network streamer will be handy in this kind of situation, but for IEM use, I don't...

Dave prefers it over the ea500LM. Sounds positive to me.

Tanchjim 4u might be the budget Oxygen.

That what I was thinking lol

A streamer, local HDD player, DAC, and headphone amp (even though is more suitable for easy to drive IEMs) at this price? It's a bargain IMO.

Xuan Wu Gate unboxing and first impressions.

I have used Hiby player, UAPP and Fiio music player and heard no audible difference.

Welcome to the rabbithole!

Timeless is still a very enjoyable pair of IEM imo. I've never heard the Heyday though.

With an IEM, not so much. With speakers, yeah it's possible.

Hiby R3ii or Shanling M0 Pro. Though both of it doesn't have the battery capacity you mentioned, they are good capable daps.

The S12 Pro in a still a great buy. Gizaudio Chopin is on sale too.

I can't even stand high ANC, can't imagine what 100% noise cancellation would feel.

Hope they add digital output, and playing from microsd card( something like the hibylink) feature.

Looking forward to your impressions on this one.

Dunu Glacier unboxing

Or the Phoenixcall with an additional bone conduction driver

It's highly sensitive(123dB@w21ohm). Most USB DACs can power it sufficiently. From the Apple dongle to Shanling UA4, there are lots of options to choose from.

Any reviews of these yet?

Thanks!

Any graph comparison with ZSN pro? I have used the zsn and zsn pro before, both had too harsh highs.

Is the headphone jack suitable to directly plug in to power amps?
