Portable: Sony WM1A -> Campfire Audio Andromeda 2019 Samsung S23 Ultra -> Qudelix 5K -> Campfire Audio Andromeda 2019
I also have a THX Onyx that I can use for my laptop, but I don't have a detachable cable and worry about removing mmcx earbuds over and over.
Superlux HD 660 Pro for home and Soundcore Liberty 4 NC for outsides, quick listens/chats and defending snorers. Might get a Beyer DT 880 with a DAC that handles these Ohms but I'm happy with what I got. :)
As I type this, THX 789 -> U12t.
In general, my favorites are U12t, Letshuoer Z12, Diana v2, and Koss KSC75 on a headband.
Recently got the Qudelix 5K and am impressed with it's absurd feature set and sound quality even over AAC.
Killer combo. Is the 64 Audio U12t an endgame IEM for you? Lately I’ve been really into IEM’s as they’re more practical for my usecase, and in this summer heat they definitely play into the comfort factor.
I currently have an Android phone that uses the LDAC codec, is there an audible difference between a higher resolution codec, or is AAC perfectly fine?
