    Torn: Focal Elegia vs. Dan Clark Audio Aeon Closed X/RT

    Hi all: I'm looking to step up from my Meze 99 Classics in a closed-back. The Mezes' bass is just too uncontrolled, too bloomy. Seeking something with some warmth and a bit of richness in controlled bass, with no bleed or bloom into the mids or treble. I do NOT like hot treble, as a pretty...

    Any impressions of THX Onyx DAC/amp?

    Has anyone used or seen a serious audiophile review of the new THX Onyx headphone DAC/amp dongle? It looks quite clean, with good specs, and it's THX's first consumer product.

    Hi all: I want to buy a DAC/amp to drive my Meze 99 Classic, Moondrop Starfield and the probable upcoming purchase of either HiFiMan Sundara, HiFiMan HE400i (2020) or Sennheiser 560s. Yes, I know the 99 Classics and Starfields don't NEED amplification, but I think both would benefit from it...

    Comparing Edifier R1280T, Micca PB42X

    Hi all: I'm in the process of comparing powered 2.0 speakers to replace the Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 speaker setup that has been in my office since early 2015. The subwoofer of the Klipsch overpowers the satellites, even when turned low, and the sound from the satellites is too tinny. My music...
