Yeah, it’s sexy for sure; gonna try the other tubes that came with it but may just dump it for nice IEMs or closed to compliment the ZMFs

Reply to Koss KPH30i on a KPH40 headband by synkro27
I just tried, the kph40i drivers are easy to pop off (I'm honestly amazed they haven't broken with how roughly I treat them) and I couldn't dislodge the 30 drivers from the headband. I'd say no, also the 30's headband is not fragile say you'd have better luck with the 40s, the 40's pivoting driver is kind of flimsy feeling and just rattling around my bag has popped the driver off multiple times (never broken but still, I don't just toss them in my bag anymore)
The 40s do sound noticeably better than the 30s to me, though. I threw some yaxxi porta pro pads on them and they're fantastic
If you love the koss on ear stye, I think they're a proper improvement over the 30's. But if what you're after is more durability, I think the issue is a wash, I'd go with some regular grado sr60's for the on ear hifi, and you can actually replace their headband with a more durable one from aliexpress if it ever breaks.

Just got a Topping DX3 Pro+ and it seems like I'm not able to get the Loudness Equalizer option in Windows anymore (under speaker properties, advanced tab) like I was with my old Schiit DAC / Amp stack. Any idea if it's a drivers issue or something else? Thanks

I have a pair of JBL 305P MkIIs for my desktop setup, and they have pretty much stopped my search and interest for headphones. Other than needing a subwoofer for deeper bass, they sound just as good as my HD600's IMHO.

It’s “hype” because the 650/6xx are good. Better than good, they are THE standard in the industry and most will tell you the same.

Reply to comment by flyco in Moondrop Variations - I'm just addicted to them by vavent_
I'm searching but i can't find a definitive answer. I don't even know if there's one. That said, and i will probably be happy with whatever i end up buying. Because to be honest, i don't think my hearing is all that great and it's not trained like a lot of people here. So for example, even if they say the Variations are not good (or ideal for metal i rock) i think i would enjoy them a lot anyway. I don't really know what to do, ahahaha.

Thanks, I know it's above the budget I stated but thoughts on the Hifiman Ananda Stealth?

yes, which is why i clearly stated that i never heard it so i can't say whether a tube amp sounds "better" (which is subjective anyways). i do think it's important to tell people that tubes aren't magic, they can't improve the original track, just modifiy the tonality a bit.

Very interesting, thanks. I am but a neophyte, but I tried the referenced LCD-2Cs last week, and they are currently my favourite cans over a stack of Focal, Hifiman, and Sennheiser headphones (admittedly the DAC/amp was different for these tests, so it is not remotely scientific).
Since I am new to the sport, I wanted to check to see what other folks thought of this device, and Josh Valour (on YouTube) was ecstatic about them. Intriguing how people hear things so differently!

Telling us what is but that you never heard it. So typical of this sub.

Oh my.. guess you need to have golden ears to hear these differences.
I love my Xduoo TA-26, but it also taught me the lesson that many reviewers are full of shit. Being completely honest, to me the difference is neither good or bad, but it's very slim, like 5-10% different in comparison to the FiiO at best (using the FiiO's DAC on both devices).
