    So with all the scores, why do people feel the RC263 is superior to the THX 365c or Q350 or do you have a different opinion?

    So I am yet to test the RC263 and Q350 but I see some people constantly putting the RC263 over the 365c so I was wondering, based on the results shown here, why exactly is that? Please share your opinion on which of those you feel is best. My seating distance is 10' and amp is a Monolith...

    SMSL SH-9 THX 888 Balanced Headphone Amp

    Sorry if this has been discussed already and I didn't see it. Is this the first "True balanced" THX headphone amp. I've been waiting for one. On the thx 789 the 3d space and pinpoint imaging is warped when going to balanced. It's flawless on single ended. I believe it's from the conversion from...

    High GAIN=Higher gain=More compression?

    So, i didn't well speak what Gain level on specification on amplifier means exactly, maybe it act like a sort of compression on sound quality? For example: JDS Atom Labs 1.0W 32ohm: Low gain=x1.0/High Gain=x4.5 THX AAA 789 Unbalanced 1,8W 32ohm: Low gain=x0,33=-10dB / Medium Gain=x1.0=0dB /...

    Due to the Green Bay Packers having a bye week (i.e., I have a little more free time than usual today) I thought it would be interesting to compare three high-performing and relatively budget THX headphone amplifiers: the Drop (Massdrop) THX AAA 789 vs. the Monoprice Monolith THX AAA 887 vs. the...

    I've been interested in this amp for a while and now it's near ending. I don't know if it was due to my complaining about the fact that there were none, but they've posted a measurement on the website. I was wondering if anyone could take a look and tell me what you think. I'm not very...
