    Bought an IEC711 coupler, what should I know?

    Bought a 711 clone, they include Arta software. I want to measure iems and headphones. More specifically to measure differences when I mod something or assemble a prototype. Question: What should I learn to get the best from it. I will probably make a follow up purchase for the silicone ear...

    ASR Headphone Testing and BK 5128 Hats Measurement System

    I should have looked it up on the B&K ear canal difference for HRTF. Still a interesting topic and seems to be gaining a little momentum. Sean Olive has making a number of appearances on YouTube of late.

    ASR Headphone Testing and BK 5128 Hats Measurement System

    When will China create a full clone on Aliexpress? Also I read somewhere that this $50k unit would monopolize measurements. Thoughts? Not sure just putting it out there. Also how does something with less detail than a clothes shop window mannequin represent a real human?(I dumb). If you are...

    ifi Zen DAC and Headphone Amp Review

    Did you ever get to use this with an adapter? Makes it perform better, audible noise removed at low volume. Noticeable with something like a moondrop variations. I might have used one that came with the Zen Can, its worth getting any reasonable compatible 5v adapter. Maybe ifi wanted people to...

    How do people feel about intentionally colored Amps targeted to specific headphones (iFi Zen CAN6xx)?

    Have the standard zen can. If your headphones or IEMs have strong mid bass the switch can be a bit much. Sort of depends on the track too. If you have a sub bass centric set like the Thieaudio Monarch, then the added mid bass can be amazing, especially on epic sound tracks or EDM. There is one...

    Master Complaint Thread About Headphone Measurements

    I don't have time for software EQ, I get a headphone or IEM and keep it if it sounds good, sell it if it's not. Always better for me when it can output the sound you want without tinkering. All this arguing over headphone measurements! You guys all listen to music........right? ;) Weird GB...

    2000mw @ 32 ohm as they tried 6w and couldn't manage the heat. I'll take a zen stack over it.
