Audiophile and gears

how much did it cost?

almost 27k. Still far better deal than what Indian retailers are offering for vanilla Blessing 2 (29k). Of course B2 and B2D have slightly different sound signature, you can go depending on your taste.

Any customs?

That’s the neat part. I didn’t pay a single penny! Kolkata Customs was kind enough to just let go of my parcel for some reason.

They don't have what I want

Maybe Hart cables or periapt cables? I’ve seen on Reddit that those are some reasonable purchase. Thought to buy one for my he400i, but haven’t decided yet.
Anyway as you’ve already purchased one, better not to look elsewhere.

Singpost & indiapost. Free shipping is quite slow.

Yes, I 've purchased earphones, DACs etc.
They are the official Fiio online retailer in India. Earlier these guys were also selling Audio Technica products on ebay India.
Always prompt and smooth transaction.

What is your budget ? It will then be easier to recommend in that price range.

lower is better, under 5k is ideal
For 6k this is available - https://www.headphonezone.in/collec...lr-to-xlr-super-flexible-studio-speaker-cable

How much difference does this one make over this el chepo cable Limited-time deal: CableCreation XLR Cable, 3 FT XLR Male to XLR Female Balanced 3 PIN Microphone Cable,Black 0.9M https://www.amazon.in/dp/B01JY29TVA
And there is this one too with neutrik connectors - https://www.amazon.in/Sonic-Plumber-Neutrik-Balanced-Microphone/dp/B08HM4B4PT?ref_=ast_sto_dp&th=1

For XLR I use Monoprice.

Interesting. They also sell motorcross parts side by side.

[Synth-Pop]

Immensely! The DAC was a huge upgrade too. Using RCA interconnects for now until the XLR ones arrive, then it'll be balanced

 

[Ebil]

Arrived today. Very nice cables, this sonic plumber guy recommended!

 

[Synth-Pop]

It looks sturdy and has got branded neutrik connectors. Enjoy!

Amazing bro. Congrats!

BTW, I have an HD 650 as well and I have a friend who's coming from the US. I am thinking of going with Modi 3+ and Magni Heresy. But seeing your setup, I'm thinking whether I should bump up to Modius/Magnius as well. What would you recommend?

BTW, I'm not an audiophile. My major use would be linking up the dac to TV for movies and gaming.

Thanks! Magni/Modi should suffice IMO. I got magnius/modius coz of availability.
