šŸ”¶ Shuoer EJ07M

I agree

I would say amp before dac for me

Edited. Sources make more sense because it can be a DAP, for example :slight_smile:

But honestlyā€¦ With W2 I donā€™t think u need anything elseā€¦ << IMO

@Resolution can also add somethingā€¦ He has more experience than I ā€¦

Unless u want to listen to your IEMs on your desk

I mean that little beast is GREAT

Iā€™m always at a desk. Either home or office. On the move I have W2 and a DAP.

I just wanna explore the scaling and stage. And I wanna join the cool guys club!!! (and have an amp ready for the open-back spree that will end up happening) :rofl:

You called the wrong guy. Heā€™s gonna say buy it. Either A90 or go Burson Soloist? :smiley:

Oops :sweat_smile::sweat_smile:

Well then desktop Amp+Dac make sense for youā€¦

Topping has some really great, and cheap dacs

I know that this is a extreme example but I just got an old iPod Photo (Classic 4th Generation), just for the nostalgic felling and I had in memory that this iPod sounded really good (it has a Wolfson Dac), but on man there is a night day difference even compared to my Fiio K1, Mele has no bass on the iPod (and Mele is a easy to drive IEM), everything sounded congested.

So I think that source do make a difference but I think that for modern amp/dac at some point the diminishing returns hits, especially if you just use IEMs.

After 100-200$, dimishing returns hit HARD on sources. A DAC like ZEN V2 will take you places :slight_smile:

Yes, you are right so many IEMs do really scale with better sources ā€¦ But typically for me the higher price IEMs they do scale really well and respond to sources differentlyā€¦

At what my dear?

Most IEMs are easy to drive, but they pair really well with amp. BTR5 or Qudelix 5K can source them easily.

Ummm @nymz ā€¦ He wants to get a nice stack for his deskā€¦

Please donā€™t say A90ā€¦ Make it lessā€¦

Oh, I doubt he wants to hear from me. I think heā€™d rather hear from you. If he wanted to hear from me, I already would have heard about it. I get PMā€™s from @nymz every few minutes. Heā€™s quite annoying. :wink:

Right, only we are allowed to be the bad asses sporting A90 + D90 for IEMs around here. :wink:

I wanna hear how does EJ07m scale with better sources. Iā€™d love for it to be portable so I can bring it to office aswell or stack with dap.

Fish memory :person_shrugging: letā€™s just blame it on advance age.

True, Iā€™m annoying.

But, butā€¦ I wanna upgrade the imaging on my Timelessā€¦ Back to apple dongle then.

OK, well I donā€™t have EJ07m.

Fish memory? I donā€™t rememberā€¦

Never change.

I heard boosting EQ a lot changes Timeless into MEST MKII. Easy. Iā€™m going to try it this afternoon. :slight_smile:

Thatā€™s why I asked Godness and not your majesty :rofl: I want different opinions on EJ07m. Iā€™m pretty sure youā€™re giving me full impressions on A90 :rofl:

Good. Gonna spamm you more now :smiley: (true fact)

You better buy a new one, since you sold yours 24h later. LOL.

U already have a W2ā€¦ So I guess if you will gain from Amp will be 0.1% IMO

Thanks! Thatā€™s what I like to hear! :heart_eyes:

(I know shit about sources, tbh. I can only tell what I like and what I donā€™t. I donā€™t like BTR5, I like W2. Donā€™t ask me why :rofl: )

And that is trueā€¦ U wonā€™t hear HUGE difference in IEMs compare to full size headphonesā€¦ IMO
