    Damn yeah, I wish I could use speakers. But I live in an apartment with another apartment mate and the walls are thin, so unfortunately have to use headphones even when walking around the common room.

    You're practically already broadcasting what you're listening to with Utopia anyhow, I doubt your roommate would have a problem with speakers :P

    LOL good point. Utopia may as well be a pair of small loudspeakers by how open they are.

    What are your impressions about Fiio BTR5, is it a good device?
    Do you think the BTR5 balanced output can competently drive a Sennheiser HD-600?

    I think it can, it definitely does a better job than the es100, which makes stuff sound underpowered.

    Just tried it with the JAR 650, and it sounds pretty dang dynamic, with surprisingly wide soundstage and everything. It sounds a lot better than I thought actually, holy shit.
