I’ve been using ANC types (AirPods Pro and XM3) for years and I thought they were really good. Spent a week on reviews and decided the weight and comfort is really important to me, I get neck aches from desk work so the lightweight design sold me. And Dan Clark seems like a good guy running a legit small business, in his videos.

I love how I can hear the subtle details in vocals I couldn’t before. Like saliva, throat and breath sounds. Feels more real and human. Let’s see if I still get goosebumps after this honeymoon period.

Is FiiO K7 good enough for it? I have to turn the amp vol to 80 for it to sound satisfying. Is this usual or a sign of a weak amp?

    I felt the same way when I got my Sundara’s. Hearing the micro detail like saliva and trailing notes was something. When I actually moved away from onboard DAC to a straight alone DAC to combine with my existing amp, it was even more clearer and I was hearing more from songs I’ve listened to 1000x before.

    Didn’t think there would be that much of a difference between the processing on my motherboard considering its high end, but Marina’s voice has never sounded better. I know the feeling, enjoy it mate.
