wish i were a IEM reviewer and got all the chinks earphones for free

I use a akg Q701 and soon a HD6xx at home

fuck m8 waiting for that massdrop thing?

i almost prefer the k612 to hd650's tbh

got a DAC for that?

O2

better extension

oh god o2

how do you live with that and the akg's

the o2 clips like a fucking mad cunt with anything low impedance low sensitivity

Its bright af

tfw e07k and i dunno if i can drive the 6xxs with that

But I was one of the first on the massdrop thingy, so they already shipped it

6-10 of june, got the first batch I think

the first batch went out 5 months ago

people got theirs ages ago

you got the second drop

Yeah, but the first batch of the second drop

@spaqin if you can find a power spec for ~300 ohm you can figure it out, but i doubt it will since the hd600 needs a high ish voltage swing

rip

and now

and battery powered shit dont do that too well

headphone amp or another dac

O2 should be fine right?

eh

my o2 clipped like a bitch on everything

id take a cmoy over it

I think you wan unlucky

what is your budget @spaqin

doubt it

0 XD

Mine doesn't clip at all

discussable

i could throw 100$

do you know what clipping sounds like though?

for a dac/amp

FX DAC-X6

does dacamp for cheap

probably on sale for 11.11 rn

has a high z out so dont use it for multi-ba iems or whatever, but for anything over 80ohm its irrelevant

or anything with a fairly flat impedance curve

otherwise get a fulla 2

but id go for the dacx6 personally

well

i do have now hd518s and will get some iems too

they're all under 80ohm

:P

oh 518's

dont then

those will sound shit from a dacx6

i'll wait til i get the 6xx tho

mad impedance curve

i'd rather get something more universal and portable

just use something cheap for iems then

i can just keep the e07k though

o yea

you wont need portability for a 6xx tho

aint using that shit on a bus

eggsactly

unless youre insane

Hahah

i don't wanna get mugged too ez

bloke i know almost got mugged cause his iems were gold lol

Play some hardcore nightcore,and let the whole bus listen to it

oh fuck

actually why not throw some more money and get something with a balanced out

why would you

balanced is a marketing meme

lowers thd figures a bit, but a good SE design does fine in that regard

its only usefull for shit like studio monitors where youre doing long runs to negate outside noise

ayy

ok

i'll keep the dac-x6 in mind

otherwise get a cmoy and some other decent dac

cmoy and that hifimediy thing would be an interesting ghetto rigged combo

hmm

youd have to deal with batteries tho

since i doubt youre going to build a whole power filtering system for a fucking cmoy

wait

is this it

https://www.amazon.com/Audiophile-headphone-amplifier-quality-parts-Altoids/dp/B00GPV7AH4

yeah

tho you can get a grado RA1 clone for cheaper on ebay

which is essentially a cmoy with diff gain

damn

wot

too bad e07k doesn't have line out

its digital volume so if you have a multimeter you can get it to about 2vrms and remember the volume number

its essentially the same thing with a bit more current

and eq

not that it really matters

eq?

what does eq have to do with line out

the fact that there's no line out :P

what

why would having eq mean there is no line out?

it doesn't, but the sound gets processed by the fiio before going to the internal amp

i could play around with it

why would that matter for line out

oh
