Yeah me tooā¦reckon it will happen in the not too distant future though
I have a feeling I will be the same if I ever get my library up to scratch
The P6 Pro is Ā£3.5k in the UKā¦The C9 is Ā£1.5k so that leaves Ā£2k for a DAC of your choice if you donāt mind being connected to your laptop/desktop which is where I do my listening.
I currently use my desktop setup most of the time since I usually listen when working, but I also do kinda like the idea of being able to listen around the house. Iāll see how I am with a dap that I can use with streaming before I decide on moving to that sort of tier, the price of a P6 Pro would give a nice upgrade to something like a v281 and a higher tier dac like a soekris 2541 or higher for when I get my HeK eventually. Not sure how well itād perform with IEMs though, but with both of those, there would still be room to get a nice IEM amp too I suppose.
This was my thinking too
I also kinda want to get some more good IEMs before I go higher tier than something like the dx300
Yeah I think someone asked do IEMās scale well?..I donāt think anyone would run the Bird off of a Ā£500 DAP/Desktop set up, yes of course you can but would you run a pair of Susvaraās off a Ā£500 source
Youād be surprised what YouTube reviewers run something like a Susvara off of
Probably THX AAA 789
Well, itās probably because they received a loanerā¦ right * biting nails *?
Indeed nowt stranger than folk
Yeah, Susvara off of a topping A90 is never gonna be anywhere near their potential.
I even saw a thumbnail of a video where they had a Susvara resting on a xDuoo XA10ā¦ needless to say, I didnāt even bother watching that
Whoās the first guy? Joshua Valour?
You got it in one
As youāve said once you start out laying larger on sets and sources itās more about synergy than the moneyā¦@MON has the experience when it comes to this dark art
I love him though. His content quality is top-notch. Also I donāt think itās that bad, because the A90 is a very good amp.
However,there is always room for improvement, so investing more may or may not get you where you want. Since he is a reviewer, he probably wasnāt able to arrange a higher-end amp for the review.
But xDuoo XA10ā¦ who does thatā¦
Itās a similar thing with cables on IEMs from what Iāve seen/experienced (my Graces are real nice with my plussound cable) but thereās not a lot of people on the forums that like those claims
I do really love his production values, theyre really nice. I personally disagree about the A90, but its not really the A90 that I take issue with in this case anyway
I just donāt see the point in why a reviewer would review a headphone on a chain thatās basically 1/6th the price of the headphone, Iād like to hope that when someone wants to spend that sort of money on a headphone, that theyād be willing to also spend good money to get the most out of them. But thatās wishful thinking I guess.
Exactly
Team cables make difference
Probably No Theme Reviews?
IIRC it was Soundnews (it was in the live thumbnail thing on YouTube)
On a serious note iām amped (excuse the pun) to see what the DX300 brings to the table regarding driving my og Androās, Z1Rās and Vegaās seeing as my og silver Micro is well dated lol.
