I have v7 vivids in for testing in v3 monoblocks atm though. I'm going to have to test them in the za3 at some point though. Thanks for subscribing!

Having preconceived notions can be very limiting in audio and in life. Thanks for watching!

@@intoitreviews ...and the earth is flat, I know 🤣

Keep them comments coming helps with the algorithm, or maybe that's a conspiracy theory too?

Nope, thanks for watching and subscribing!

Best under 100 is probably dunu kima 2. Review will be released soon!

@@intoitreviewswhat is the BEST moondrop offering under $100-150 then? Thanks , great review

These are way better than the kinera, thanks for subscribing!

Thanks for watching, commenting, subscribing!

Thanks for commenting for the algorithm

Does quite well with planar due to its hybrid design. Thanks for watching and subscribing!

@@intoitreviews it has 32ohms and they say it needs 250w. i really dont know what the wattage is

They don't sound like they know what they're talking about. Should drive 32 ohm planar fine.

Excellent! Thanks for watching and subscribing

Probably fine for the subs. I'd switch to the v3 monos for the mains.

CORRECTION...LM 4562.

Tried them. They're ok... I liked them in an Aiyima preamp I reviewed. I'd stick with sparkos or burson op amps with the za3, but honestly, idk if za3 is ever the better option compared to v3 monos

@rabscots910 thanks for subscribing!

@@intoitreviews Oh...you tried them. The LM 4562. I did a sound test with the Sparks.....underwhelming to me. The issue with the ZA3 is gain - I have found. They kept it at very low gain levels....but with an EQ....you can see that resolution isn't effected by increased gain. I'm not sure why they did this. Buying a second unit isn't necessary once you have the ZA3 pushing its full capability. I have found :)

Two is always better than one with the Za3 based on my extensive experience with it. Gain is helpful though, but if your system is revealing enough, you always benefit from a second amp.

They're not labeled inside, I swapped all three. If you know what each part is for let us know, and that may help answer your question further. Thanks for watching and subscribing!

I have not yet. I will definitely do one at some point. I do have a number of videos to get out first though. Feel free to join the discord to discuss specifics in the mealtime. I'm in there quite often. The modifications that were done will result in system specifics benefits or drawbacks unfortunately. It didn't make it a better or worse amp per say, although it does change the amp in some key ways. Some of these changes are postive, some of these changes are negative. I don't know if I would recommend the modifications for everyone, as the benefits are mostly system specific. Thanks for subscribing, and check out the discord!

Enjoyed your review a lot! Hope you can do step by step mod to enhance this lil gem especially on reducing noise and improve headphone amp session. As a beginner without any soldering experience , would be a great way to start the journey thanks

Nice seeing you Chris, thanks for commenting and supporting the channel!

It's nor a chifi product. It's made by a Romanian company. As good as China's best in the price range. Thanks for subscribing!

The Gryphon is actually pretty hard and sterile sounding. I would not recommend for the teaks. There are lot of options though. Idsd micro would be better choice, but you don't really need that much power for the teak. Zen Dac is good enough or Burson Playmate 2 would be excellent options. A small dongle like a hiby fc3, tanchjim space, or colorfly cd01 i reviewed would be good enough tbh. If I think of some others, I'll circle back. Thanks for watching, commenting, and subscribing of course!

Depends on your headphones. In general for headphones the can does better but for fairly efficient headphones you may get away with just the zen dacs headphone output. Thanks for subscribing!

To be clear the v3 monos are not the za3... and for the monos I recommend the burson v7 vivids, thanks for subscribing.

Teak, thanks for subscribing

Yep, thanks for subscribing

Some people have bad ears and just believe what others tell them. Glad I could be helpful. Glad you can return it. It does break in over time, but not worth keeping imho. I didn't.

Nova is warm. Origin isn't that much treble, and more neutral. Both need foams. Thanks for subscribing.

You would need two per chasis for balanced operation. One for the right channel and another for XLR. I do not recommend unbalanced operation. Thanks for subscribing.

@ could I not leave the xlr opamp as is and replace the R channel with a sparkos?

So stock opamp on xlr and R channel with sparkos opamp? Since I have read that changing the xlr opamp does nothing for the sound

@tjeerdkruidhof5808 you could, but it won't sound as good.

@ well I heard that changing the opamp there has no sound benefits, the R opamp seems to have more benefits , but you have tested it I guess

Rhythmic works well for full music 2 channel, but for HT work as well the HSU is much deeper and more impactful. Thanks for subscribing

but others say 7hz is good im so confused

Nope, this is the latest version. Other people are shills or have poor ears. This channel aims to tell it like it is, and can't be bought or influenced like the others. Thanks for subscribing in support of the truth!

HzSound Heart Mirror Pro or Waist Drum. Even Moondrop Lan are better than Crin Red Around 50 bucks unless you want a warm earphone. Dunu Koma 2 is a pretty safe bet around $100. Thanks for subscribing!

Thanks for such a thorough comment and for subscribing!

@@intoitreviews you’re welcome.

It's not very good without sparkos. Better with them for sure. Idk if pointing this out makes me a salesman. If you think so, I think you're listening to the wrong people and focusing on things that won't help you get good sound. Best of luck to you still, and thanks for watching and commenting!

@@intoitreviews at lot of peaple are enjoying ZA3 as is. Ss3602 is expensive than the amp itself, doesn't make sense. Why not buy a better amp with the total amount of ZA3 + ss3602.

@fredreadrick people that enjoy the za3 as is likely don't understand they can do better. Perhaps watch my full za3 video as well, I mention some other amps to consider there. Considering them vs za3 with sparkos could be an option, although I'd ultimately recommend v3 mono blocks with burson vivid op amps in most cases if you're going to spend big money. Sparkos are actually an economical option for many people on a budget considering that. Also maybe some people have bought the za3, and are probably disappointed. Op amp upgrades can be helpful fore them to consider for sure. Unlike other channels, this channel only has the agenda of telling people the truth about sound outcomes.

That sucks. Unfortunately, I've had things like that happen at any price. Usually PCB circuits are pretty consistent. Hopefully your replacement goes better. I haven't heard many experiences like yours. Best of luck!

You're good at quoting I see 👀 😏

Word, Thanks for the comment and subscribing!

Yeah I will. I owe a number of videos to companies first though, so those are the priority, but I will work it in as soon as possible. To be honest, some of the mods resulted in positive benefit, but Skunkie did not really involve me as much in the process as I would have liked to have been, and was not very cooperative. As a result, the end product kind of suffered in some key areas in my opinion, and I'm not sure I can recommend the mods overall, even if there were some positives here or there. I will touch on this in the video when I can. Make sure you're subscribed with notifications turned on to get alerted, or join my discord if you want to talk before.

@@intoitreviews yep. Already subscribed. I look forward to your video.

Not really, no. The volare has a bit more of a nuanced presentation and an EST sound, but the sogno actually displays details a bit better imho, at least below the air region. Both are limited in air, but the sogno is even more so. These two IEMs sound more similar than they do different. The sogno is a bit more engaging and the volare a bit more laid back. I find the price gap isn't necessarily worth the upgrade (unless you hate the more energetic sound), but the volare cable is notably better. Give the review another watch, I talk a lot about these things in detail in the review. Also thanks for subscribing! Very helpful to the channel!

Yup, they're better than Arya Organic. Check out that review, and thanks for subscribing!

@@intoitreviews Thanks for replying and will do! I’ve had my eyes on these for a long time, and the current price just seems like a no brainer. My main headphones are the focal elex for several years now. (Not a huge audiophile with a massive collection.) Just looking for something as an upgrade/sidegrade/compliment to them.
