    Edition XS hiss/resonance?

    That's a good point, I have moondrop dawn pro with magni heretic (both 115+ SINAD), I'm able to reproduce the hiss when connected to either my PC or iPad, and the hiss doesn't occur with my elex or blessing 2 dusk at all

    Edition XS hiss/resonance?

    Just to say thank you to ASR

    Man I cannot imagine getting into this hobby and making sense of source gear without the measurements here. Sure headphones and IEMs are ultimately subjective and need to be played around with but I'm so glad for ASR measurements to essentially make source gear a "solved" problem for my needs.

    Headphone stuttering only when using balanced connection

    Actually, just tried using a multimeter lying around (https://www.amazon.com/Eversame-Multimeter-Voltmeter-Indicator-DC3-6-30V/dp/B07JYVPLLJ) and balanced output definitely consumes more current (up to 0.19) at the stuttering threshold when busier passages happen compared to SE output (up to...

    Headphone stuttering only when using balanced connection

    I recently received my Hifiman Edition XS and I noticed the stock SE cable results in no issues when connected to my Moondrop Dawn Pro - iPad. There are also no issues when using either the stock cable or my balanced Faaeal cable when connected to my dawn pro - Windows 10 PC. However, when I...
