Digital Audio Player Pairings
Using some of our preferred flagship DAPs we have provided our signature impressions and synergies below.
Pairing directly with the Astell & Kern AK380 Copper Edition
Articulate and detailed transparency, tight bass and airy style synergy. – Good pairing
Pairing with the Sony NW-WM1Z Player
Natural style with more warmth and fuller body.
Pairing with Chord Mojo (optically driven from the AK380CU)
Again warm with tight bass, musical yet with a good portray of detail. – Preferred Synergy
In addition to the higher end DAPs these earphones performed well from standard mobile phone sources also as they are extremely easy to drive.
How would you compare the bass with Sony XBA-Z5?
Bass is not as full as the XBA-Z5 but feels to have better texturing aspects.
Which over-ear Headphone would equate to Earsonics velvet? DT880 ? DT990? T1? K702? K701? or?
Unfortunately we haven’t experienced the over-ear Headphone models you mentioned so are unable to provide a comparison currently. If we get a chance to sample them we will let you know which is similar. Thanks
Do you have idea for change stock cable ?, what cable I must buy?.
Thanks
Effect Audio Ares II and II plus work well and are good value. Also the PW Audio range is excellent value. Both have decent synergies with the EarSonics products we have sampled.
