Headphones

Nice Sundaras bro

I don't know these headphones by side-profile, what are they?

Do you have the K7 on high gain? It's not a weak amp, though the Dan Clark stuff is generally hard to drive.

Have you increased the gain?

What kind of headphones are we looking at?... OP? Not sure why you didn't include what they are sir or ma'am. But they look nice :D

Well what are they?

I got the Aeon Flow 1 Closed and was thoroughly impressed with the build quality and comfort. Utterly disappointed in the sound. It was a weird thing where the sound was obviously accurate but infuriatingly lifeless. Like being at a house show where the beat never drops or the crescendo never soars.

Rarely ever see ethers (especially ether 2s) around

This is my set up. It sounds fine to me regarding the power.

op you not slick for giving me flashbacks with what you are listening

Its deliberate. K7 is designed like that, to be used in the area after 12 o'clock.

Fellow "let you down" enjoyer.

The k7 has a non-linear volume knob so you have to really turn it to get volume,

New dac and amp would for sure be an upgrade.

I know they are easy to drive but they are so detailed that amp and dac upgrade is worth it.

Mojo 2 is amazing dac amp.

I went from iphone to android and got myself some nice new iems this month.

I felt the same way when I got my Sundara's. Hearing the micro detail like saliva and trailing notes was something. When I actually moved away from onboard DAC to a straight alone DAC to combine with my existing amp, it was even more clearer and I was hearing more from songs I've listened to 1000x before.

Didn't think there would be that much of a difference between the processing on my motherboard considering its high end, but Marina's voice has never sounded better. I know the feeling, enjoy it mate.

I rationalized my LCD X with the exact same mentality. Boy math if I’ve ever seen it 🤣

Nice one. I got the same Fiio amp.

Nice one. I got the same Fiio amp.

Yeah, hifi headphones are awesome. I have never had these, but figured I'd try some. Instantly hooked on the clear sound and I wanted to buy some. Bought 2 sets, openbacks and closed backs for a reasonable price, because I also want to start making music and mixing it.

To be fair the flat frequency response of studio headphones and hifi headphones is good, you can just drop any eq over it and they will sound anazing for listening to music. You can get really good hifi and studio headphones for a cheap price, compared to things like airpods or in ears they sound night and day, almost like speaker compared to phone speakers.

Skipping iphone 14 and 15 for headphones is honestly a good choice. They don't even have a headphone jack and cheap hifi headphones often only have 3.5mm aux out... Lol

I’m still skipping with my broke ass

Nice ad.

damn bro, you must be really struggling on that iphone 13. idk how you had the strength to not upgrade! you definitely deserve to treat yourself for those tough efforts

let you down in the bg!!

Use iFi DAC's for the DCA. They can handle my Meze 109 Pro and Focal Radiance like a dream.

Nothing of value was lost.

As you should. What's life without music

I stopped at 13 pro max as well,nothing major in any upgrade in my opinion as everything seems to have stalled a bit in tech.Even the new M3 chips as Apple kept on giving % against the m1 throughout their launch.I like you just treat myself to new headphones and I'm looking to get the R7 next

Let me ask you this, do you want a mobile amp or a stationery amp ??

By what your asking, it's a mobile amp... Right now you are on the edge of a pricy rabbit hole called audiophiles; welcome. I highly suggest you do get it because that is going to be you entry point for comparison if you later want to try a different amp, which I recommend you do. Atm I have a hi res audio set up for my pc with dac and amp comb. With my pc speakers, been passive, been run by amp and my head phones also been hooked up to my amp, it's a little tedious but I love it.

What are these headphones?
