“The sHP-100 has more tricks up its sleeve. On the bottom of the DAC, there is a switch which lets you choose between fixed and variable line output. There is also a headphone impedance selector for better headphone matching. The mini jack line input allows you to connect any portable device, or any analog source.”

“The WM8740 is a pretty mean DAC. It carries that famous Wolfson warmth without turning signal to muck, or sacrificing detail. And the RWA mod doesn’t squeeze your music through a low pass filter. In some ways, the RWAK100 produces a more energetic, unapologetic sound than the MSAK100 mod.”

“pendor describes the D7 as a “2.5-way” speaker. The bottom, bass-only driver has Kevlar-reinforced skins on a lightweight cone and runs up to 900Hz, the mid/woofer up to 3.2kHz, where the tweeter takes over. The D7’s overall frequency response is 29Hz–25kHz.”

” The Audeze LCD-2 sounded crisper, and the drums were more viscerally alive, but the TH500RP had more oomph, more kick, more power.’

: Experiment for yourself and see if you can hear a difference. In our opinion, having the weight in place allows music to sound a touch clearer and more solid. And in general, these are areas where the 2-Xperience 2-Pack scores highly.
