    Which DAC/AMP combo for my Focal Clear OG ?

    My issue was with the potentiometer and its lack of low-level granularity. Glad it's working well for you though!

    Truthear x Crinacle Zero:RED IEM Review

    Yeah, it happened in my left iem and I already have pretty massive hearing loss in my left ear, so idk how long it took for me to notice the issue. But this was definitely after a few hundred hours of use.

    Truthear x Crinacle Zero:RED IEM Review

    You're almost certainly correct, and I think I have a pair of spare filters from when I bought the reds. I'm on a trip right now, so I'll have to check when I get home. My initial impression is that the zero 2 has better deep base but slightly recessed high mids. The reds have an overall more...

    AI Music & Music Ecosystem Thesis experiment

    Hi Mark. You might benefit from including an estimate for how long this survey takes. I wasn't anticipating having to take time to actively listen to things.

    FiiO CP13 Portable Compact Audio Cassette Player Available for Pre-order (if you're quick)

    Spoiler: It uses the same crappy cassette mechanism as any other modern cassette.

    FiiO JD7

    The Zeros' fit isn't ideal, but it's miles ahead of the JD7.

    Topping G5 - Is the battery serviceable ?

    Yeah. To be honest I just checked the markings on the battery and googled PN 805080. I found a whole mess of 8mmx50mmx80mm 4000mAh 3.7V batteries, so I think its a semi-standard battery type.

    Looks like you can get close to a drop-in replacement from amazon or aliexpress.

    I agree that the elacs are a good option. You will need an amp, but something as simple as an Aiyima A07 (or whatever the current recommended budget amp is) would be fine. I think the genelecs you listed probably won't get loud/deep enough.
