I just impress by beats solo hd for its portable use (direct ipod / blackbery), bass impact, and good isolation. After making a big mark on the premium level with the K9 Pro ESS, FiiO ensured that they won’t be leaving the budget market for the taking. Can’t seem to find anyone who’s listened to Fiio K9 PRO ESS and Hifiman EF600 and I can tell you’ve reviewed both.

I’m looking to replace my original PX100’s and was looking at the PX100-IIs before reading your reviews. There are 2 gain modes available (+6dB/+19dB) making the headphone amplifier suitable for anything from sensitive IEMs up to demanding full-size headphones. It is a great achievement to be able to squeeze such a high-performance device into such a small chassis, which not only performs well on paper but also in real life. Let's start with finding the smallest possible solution for converting the socket to dip8 so there is more to choose from considering opamps.however there has been some people who’s been using the PX100 who thinks that they still prefer the darker sound of the Sennheiser PX100-II than the Jays. Apart from sound, the devices are well-made and JDS has improved the plastic thanks to the mold injection and 3d tech. My linear power supply for the DX3 Pro arrived today and I replaced the Topping D50 in my computer based HiFi system with the DX3 Pro + linear power supply.

However, for now, the Topping D50 has a significantly wider frequency response that can actually be heard, separates instruments better and places those instruments in a more well-defined soundstage. It can drive ninety percent of the headphones that is available on the market and it provides a hiss-free experience for IEMs. I also don't know any extra "features" that one or the other might have that should sway me one way or another. Don’t get me wrong, I still like to listen to my full-sized headphones at home, but I deeply enjoy listening to my LS50’s a whole lot more now.
