Bump from 100 to 200Hz brings muddiness to sound, its very bad and ruin whole experience a lot. Its much worse than "ignored" seal problems on r70x review here, so even real bass "roll off" not even close as bad, as mentioned above FR "bump" on any headphone. Also build quality dropped down a...

Maybe Iam missing something. Can someone explain why a lot of headphones use XLR connection, while their requirements for any integrated amp, for example cheapest toppings model 3.5 output or 6.3 for desktop enough to drive them even for insane or painful 120dBs? For 100dBs its super low...

One of the problems on small devices such as amps for example is capacitor volume. It will degrade over time. Not sure if manafactuers even interested (financially) to put big ones for additional price cost, so the device will last longer without replace. They will gain more if device would not...

Yes, sometimes it can be difficult to understand why some expensive devices have distortions in measurements, and in several different ones. Perhaps these distortions give a false sense of “different” sound, which is deliberately and falsely interpreted as quality, for example by the...

Well, sure. He did great job. I still using his headphones reviews, as DIY Audioheaven site. But it seems reviewing new higher quality DACs from users seems got not much sense for human ears then. I can understand situations when "older" gear is measured or some manufactuer wanna "double check"...

Clarify please the advantages of the DSP built into RME from, say, the same APOEQ, why will people choose RME over cheaper analogues with the same measurement quality? What important features do you get when buying RME for its price, which only it has at this price?

For human ear its totally fine. If you place question in that perspective.)

Can anyone clarify why Amir does so many reviews of DACs, if sufficient maximum quality has already been achieved a long time ago? From the point of view of an ordinary consumer. Just for scientific purposes? What impact does this have then for consumers? (in addition to additional functionality...

Okay, got it. When proper arguments took place, you could change your mind. Seems that I was having clipping problem in my rig, that's why I've heard some difference. Anyway defenetly will make a valid test and recheck my previous results. Will thank everybody, if I was wrong and who was patient...

Okay. After some testing suggested here I can change my mind. Why not. I don't mind to sell all stuff and sit on cheap box with EQ. Why then needed to measure so many dacs that set in similar manner. If they are already measuring well and can give you any sound you want using just eq or dsp...

Well its simple. One of the values should not be greater than zero, which is impossible in the physical world, only in the mathematical one. Correct me if this is not accurate.

Mathematically this is already an incorrect statement if expressed in the language of numbers, which is so loved here.

Okay. Its not secret that tube amp its a distorted mess compared to any measured well integrated amp. But people say tune amps sound fantastic and they did take pleasure from listening experience or is it not true and they pretend every time or mimic without realizing it? Same example with...

Thanks. Will check this topic.

It already was said that any new element in the chain will degrade signal quality. On low quality amp/dacs you wont hear it for sure. But some think that almost all amps are so good now that you wont hear any differences. I can't a agree with that. I tried APO EQ and Room eq. When it apply any...

There is no "perfectly flat" FR anywhere. Secondly, we are not exactly enough can translate numbers to the imagination, so we could exactly and clearly understand how it would sound. We only can tell from our experience and theory how it should sound. Okay(?). So its all done from "imagination"...

Okay, I got it. What about engenieers that correct and shape "sound chatacter" of an amp for example? Or this job doesn't exist and all characteristics are purely based on numbers you achieve to match painted target SINAD? If for Example Harman based SINAD where crated from a lot of subjective...

Are you sure you can see "edited" label in all cases? Even if several seconds passed only. Secondly visual effect got almost nothing in case I've described. So its again miss from you. Thirdly, you said, you added me to "ignore", so why answering still after, is it a lie?

I would do it other way. So take your friend for example to watch that all fair, sit on chair, back in front of the manager, ask him to bring 2 different level amplifiers of same brand if possible and some headphones. Ask to plug in first one, after some time of listening music 1min max...

Okay, good video. But what about cases when visual information doesnt matter for you in particular case? If your are not biased or biases in "opposite way", but still get results that should not be affected by our inner thoughts or not intersecting with our ".real interest/intention". Here you...
