Yes, Anandas are hit or miss because lack of swivel. Hifiman’s headbands for entry to mid level headphones are subpar, from my point of view. Only Aryas and more expensive models get a decent headband.

And new Anandas as well.

Great job, @Rja4000! Would it be possible to run the 16 vs 24 bits at -90 DBFS with a higher fequency, let’s say 10,000 Hz?

I have The Quad, as they might have called the D30 Pro, and it sounds excellent.

One of the best single-ended headphone amps out there. I have been enjoying it for a year and a half, along with the DAC D30 Pro. A match made in heaven.

Noire has perforated pads on the front inner side

In fact, headphones are far more powered than speakers. Any decent desktop HP amp brings at least 1W of power between 16 and 32 Ohms, and several hundred miliwatts up to 300 Ohms, and the headphones have sensibilities between 84 and 100 dB/mW, most of then past 90 dB/mW, while loudspeakers have...

As far as I know, no. Sooner or later, all models will be discontinued. This is due to the way electronics are manufactured nowadays: the design is made, it is validated, the number of units to be manufactured in a first batch is established, the necessary purchases are made with suppliers...

One more reason to keep my Anandas from 2020.

That seems normal, taking into account your room temperature.

The DC protection for amps with DC coupling design is their responsibility. It does not seem logical to me to ask the connected equipment to guarantee the absence of DC, because, although it must be so, this does not protect against a failure in the amplifier itself. The allowed level of 12...

This is for the PA3, but perhaps is useful for the PA3s as well Post in thread 'Topping PA3: subjective impressions' https://audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/topping-pa3-subjective-impressions.7642/post-573109

DF = headphones impedance / amplifier’s output impedance if the headphone has more impedance, the DF increases.

Just cut off the AC with the back switch and the noise is gone.

I don't understand how they dare to publish these erroneous tracks that can damage the equipment that reproduces them.

I don’t think so.

I am looking for a replacement cable for my Aeon 2 Noire that is less noisy and more flexible than the default one. By "noisy" I mean minimizing the noise transmitted to the cups from rubbing on clothing. I also want it to be as flexible as possible, i.e. not to retain its shape. Can you help me...

Rest assured that if there were a chance to end the universe, it would have already been discovered by some audiophile fond of these miraculous sound-enhancing devices, so popular in high end audio.
