    No Burl? You'll either like Burl stuff or go WTF. They have much of the same design philosophy as Schiit and Pass taken up to 11.

    No Burl. Yggdrasil A2 is on my upper limits for warmth. Burl measurements look so shitty for a non-R2R design that I suspect the distortion might be audible. Also, I don't need highs any mellower than Source or Gungnir Multibit A2. Not into the princess ultra-smooth sound for $2500. For less than $500, sure.

    On Sony TOTL IEM, waiting for prices on Sony's "latest pieces of shit" to go down and stabilize before committing. Early adopters of Sony's "latest piece of shit" gear get raped. It isn't the 1970s anymore.

    Yeah the modular one was super warmth n smooth but humongous sounding. Def not worth it as a main DAC or $2500 for 2 channels but makes a cool color box. It tells that I was surprised the DAC parts did not have transformers

    Is the new Campfire IEM (I'm assuming Solaris) going out on loaner? I'd love to compare it to the RE2000 to see which manufacturer used better sounding gold tbh.
