    Is this the end of owning music?

    Just to add my 2 cents. I'm part of that streaming crowd but mostly for music and artist discovery. If I like a band or artist enough I'll buy their albums either CD, vinyl or download basically whatever I can find it in. I feel it's more sentimental to have a physical copy of your music, at...

    Massdrop does it again ... Massdrop x Eddie Current ZDT Jr headphone amp

    I'm curious has anybody joined this drop? I'm interested but skeptical since the only good impressions it has from SBAF is with 300 ohm Sennheisers or HD800's, it doesn't seem to pair well with any planars and they seem rather pushy on that site to get people to buy it  :thinking: What you guys...

    Massdrop Aune X1S

    Oh darn!! Sorry I didn't see this post before the drop ended, since I own a X1S I can say IMHO that it is a pretty decent desktop DAC/Amp combo with a very clean sounding DAC stage that I'm currently enjoying with the more powerful X7S Amp module. In terms of power it should power your current...

    What headphone did you start off with?

    Technically my first headphone was a pair of Bose AE or something along those lines. Basically a Beats competitor with better build quality and less bass. They were a gift and I thought they were great at the time but they eventually disintegrated into pieces and I threw them out. The first...

    Advice

    Have a look at the Sennheiser HD 598cs https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01JP436TS/_encoding=UTF8?coliid=I2Y0YJLCFDUWB7&colid=1W1SFGPKORPBC Best price I could find, probably warmer sounding than the m40x and cb-1

    Massdrop Sennheiser HD 6XX heaphones available again @ $249.99

    It's also worth noting that Massdrop are giving first access to those who reached checkout and couldn't complete the transaction from the first run. So who knows how many are going to be left come Monday.

    Does the dragonfly red support MQA or are you using Audirvana's decoding ?

    Massdrop

    I've bought quite a few things from Massdrop before but they wouldn't ship any of them to South Africa. I thought they no longer ship here. I always used forwarding companies to receive the items in the states then ship it here. It doesn't really work out cheaper than buying it local or getting...
