I’m still being highly entertained by my LCDX (21) when using a Wiim Pro’s parametric EQ and sending that onto my DAC dvd headphone amp…these are a clear contender to those who want a solid bass performance without loosing much in fidelity … now if only they could be more efficient.
Great review👍👍

Did you try the sparkos Gemini? Wonder if it would drive the tungsten to its full potential?

I just reordered a pair. I had a deposit about 6 months ago but canceled. Ryan is a very supportive player in the industry and is respected by all. I've never met him but have chatted with him on Telegram. I'm a special use case since I need lots of power to compensate for a hearing loss. I just received a Ray Samuels B21 Raider amp with 24W per channel so I'll be able to optimize Tungsten performance. Very happy to support this small business.

Great review Lachlan....as always

Thanks and🤞to see & hear these at the upcoming SoCal can jam.

Wow the wire is very premium looking for a stock cable. Just checked their website and the cable I saw in the photo is a thick weaved cable that usually cost around $250-$350 if I were to order them separately from third party maker.

What amp in your collection that could drive it as well as or close to the performance of the enleum amp that comes with it?

[MoonshineBeforeSunshine]

Great review as usual.

Heard these are very difficult to acquire.

Can Aune S9C Pro can run these good?

S9C Pro, on its balanced outputs, provides 2000mW at 100Ohm and 672mW at 300Ohm.

The Hifiman HE6-SE V2 (possibly other HE-6 variants, too) has a gold-foiled driver, and it's also low sensitivity.

[vaneast]

so good to hear ;-) ha ha
I've got these on order from sometime ago in ancient history
ready to couple them with a Violectric V281 which delivers the voltage
required for these beasts thanks!

Wait time is a high consideration upon purchasing as the current wait is close to a year. However these don’t pop up at all on the secondary market so that’s a good sign.

[invisiblekid]

The issue is waiting for them. Won’t get into that too much here, but Ryan is a one man band. Mine should be a couple more months I think. That’s 7+ months direct from the website.

Would to have loved to hear your thoughts using these with the Burson 3XGT Lachlan as I think your the only YT reviewer that has this combination.

While they might not be the giant killer, they do compete in a lot of areas. Trouble is if you want better you’re going to have to get spendy. Not that that is a bad thing for my wallet.

However it does mean they fit into my collection as I don’t want a huge number of headphone, but a couple of “end-game” for my budget and a few “different” sounding ones which does mean you don’t have to break the bank to get those.

[soulfulfool]

Yea I dont have patience to wait i linę for them but I believe they sound excellent

[beefsupreme]

I have a pair, ask me anything haha. They are really freakin good but when you factor in how hard they are to get, it’s kinda not worth it. I still prefer my Utopia OG, Caldera, Atrium open & HE1KSE over them & you can get any of those pretty easily. They are still an awesome set & better than majority of headphones out there just hard to get & hard to power

[johnratcliffe]

And if you can actually order a pair...
