[QUOTE="David Morris, post: 1140783, member: 25279"] You are right with the scaling, I just A/B compared them against the HiFiMan Ananda, on a Samsung headphone jack the Ananda is far superior and the same is true on the Fiio BTR3K using the direct USB cable connection. However on the more powerful Earmen Colibri the gap starts closing and I had to A/B a few times to make sure of my findings I am guessing the Ananda are easier to drive at 25 ohms SPL 103db so they peak quicker, whereas the 300 ohm HD's appreciate every step up in amplifier power. I A/B the Ananda with the HD's as a friend is considering selling his [/QUOTE]
