Great recommendationsā€¦except Fluxā€¦I donā€™t trust products coming from a country where the women are too beautifulā€¦it distracts and takes away from the quality of any product.

You need desperation and longing in any great invention/product/dream/vision.

Iā€™m new to the audiophile game. (90 days in)
Took me a min to wade through the boring reviewers and find Zeos.
Heā€™s like GG Allin, El Duce from The Mentors, Wolfgang Pauli, and Tesla with a touch of Sweet Anita all rolled into one.
Thank God for his unique soul.
Yesterday he said he was going to rub his junk (off camera of course) on a product that was sent to him.
Iā€™d love to see the reaction of the person that sent it when they hear that haha
Whatā€™s my pointā€¦oh yeahā€¦just discovered you when you did the review of GL 2000.
It was your review that got me to pull the trigger on buying these cans.
Love your work!
Much respect!

Great philosophy to live by. Not just for headphones.

I ordered the GL2000ā€™s a while back and waiting on Drop(please donā€™t delay them) is driving me insane. I cannot wait to listen to them!

I can. But thats the thing they came like that for me.

@lrjshabaz if you would like to gripe or praise a reviewer, there are appropriate threads for this. Please donā€™t flood a headphone thread, trying to start up/continue crap.

My apologies. When the relavent posts are in that thread rather than here, I shall reply there.

Let me continue in the proper spirit of the thread, the serious matters: Do they slam? When will they ship? Should I cancel my order from x to re-order from y to get them 3 days faster. What is my legal recourse for getting refunded from the online Chechnyan retailer I thought I found a loophole with? Should I sell a kidney to fund? What iz Balanced?

We must have lighter hearts in this forum.

woah what are these?
not liek any GL2000s Iā€™ve seen

GoldPlanar GL850

The q5s does not have the power to drive most planar properly. 350 mw at 60 ohms and thats at 1% distortion which is insane for a headphone amp. my crown speaker amp has 0.01 percent or better to 300 watts. the dethoray honey h1 is 1.25 watts at 32 ohms, but yours will probably get to moderate levels fine but the dynamics will be low. im using the heresy and most planars i use on high gain and thats 2.5 watts. my mobile device cannot power my m1070 not even close and that has 300mw it does get loud but sounds like crap and high distortion.

Or one from the hundreds of copies, available in Alibaba.
Few bugs for the case, few bugs for the foam, sticker to go = done. Sell with xx times production costs.

:joy::joy::joy: Am I out of the loop I thought that flux labs and rebel audio were in the same country??

The GL850 is an AMT driver headphone like the Hedd phone instead of Planar GL2000

Didnā€™t know Rebel Audio was out of Ukraine. wow! interesting! Another company I can mark off my list haha jkā€¦If you ever go to Odessa, Iā€™ll give you 100 dollars if you spot an ugly woman :rofl:

What DAC would you pair with Topping A90 amp?

The ones Iā€™m looking at are RME ADI 2, Lynx Hilo, and Benchmarkā€¦

Any advice would be grateful!
