    DAC and Amp suggestions for flagship headphones?

    Well, I kinda just got Tidal Hifi plus :oops:. Only because I can 50% off since I am a student, so I'm paying about 4.99 pounds. So far, listening to some tracks on master quality, I can tell they sound a bit clearer but also have better separation. I can tell differentiate between each noise...

    DAC and Amp suggestions for flagship headphones?

    Thank you, everyone, from the looks of it, upgrading my gear would have minimum impact on my listening experience. There is only so far you can spend before experiencing diminishing returns after all. Only my music platform can make the biggest change. I'll take a look into Tidal's HiFi services.

    DAC and Amp suggestions for flagship headphones?

    Greetings, I have recently purchased a Sony MDR-Z1R, the flagship Sony headphones. Now I am thinking, if my headphones are top tier and I can't upgrade any further, I can only upgrade my DAC/amps/source. My source will remain as Spotify premium (not Tidal, sorry I know). Leaving me with...

    Topping L30 Headphone Amplifier Review

    So ummm guys, coming from a commercial buyer with no knowledge of anything electronic and not understanding all the jargon. What topping says is basically units with S/N 2012 and higher won't have any problems right? Because my Amazon seller just asked me if I wanted a replacement or refund. Im...

    Topping L30 Headphone Amplifier Review

    Sorry didn't see your message. I just finished typing a long message. Yes the sound is coming from my AMP and not headphones. I feel like I should have made it clear. After turning on my amp, it makes 1 CLICK noise. No clicking noises from headphones

    Review and Measurements of Massdrop THX AAA 789 Amp

    Hey guys, after I turn on my 789 amp, is it normal to hear one click sound followed by the led signal turning on? ONLY 1 click sound. I thought the click was to show it had turned on right. I have been using it fine since early 2019 Because I was on another thread for another amp, the L30. I...

    Topping L30 Headphone Amplifier Review

    My batch number is 2011622170. I do not have any audio cut out. But I do hear a loud tick sound whenever I turn on my amplifier. I thought was normal? When I use my THX 789 amp from Drop, I always hear a loud tick whenever I turn on that amp. I have been using the THX 789 amp also for years...

    Review and Measurements of Topping NX4 DSD Dac and Portable Headphone Amplifier

    I'm probably not the best person to be responding to this but I think you can still use it but you would need to have it connected 24/7 to a charger. My super old laptop does that .

    Review and Measurements of Topping NX4 DSD Dac and Portable Headphone Amplifier

    Yeh your gonna need something stronger for the HD 650, their 300 ohms and I don't think the NX4 has enough power to do them justice. But it's still a damn good dac/amp.

    Review and Measurements of Topping NX4 DSD Dac and Portable Headphone Amplifier

    good to know. Could you say if you have notice some battery failures or degradation , because on massdrop JUST ONE person said that using it like this would degrade the battery life.So I took it with a grain of salt.

    Review and Measurements of Topping NX4 DSD Dac and Portable Headphone Amplifier

    Is it true that if I use the unit while its charging it would degrade the battery? Thinking its a pretty solid desktop driver for me. I already got the unit with me and its amazeballs but I'm just scared to test out my theory
