Putting Together A Rig (amp, dac, etc.) Around The LCD-3's - Need Opinions/Suggestions/Recommendations
Quote:Originally Posted by Meremoth Quote: You wont need a sound card if you have an external DAC. If you do have one in your pc, it wont interfere as you could tell your pc to use your external DAC as default or switch between the two if needed. One thing you might...- cired

Balancing Act Tube Rolling
Hello and thanks for your reply. I am running the KR PX4's with a TS BGRP for now. To me, this is a great sounding combo but I just wanted to experiment a bit. If anything possibly soften it up a tad.- cired

Audeze LCD-3 Impressions Thread
Quote: When I had the V200 (with a V800 for a source) I liked the LCD-2 rev 2 better than the LCD-3's. I was kind of disappointed I sold the LCD-2's before making the conclusion. Just didn't seem as lively and I had the LCD-3's checked out for veil. The LCD-3's were more comfortable I gotta...- cired

The (new) HD800 Impressions Thread
Quote: Personally I didn't really care for the HD800 with the mid-fi stuff that I have owned and sold them. The HD800 with my current setup now are my personal favorites and brought them to a whole new level and listening experience.- cired

I heard the Pinnacle paired with an HD800 at a meet and it was pure bliss. One of those stations I kept going back to because I couldn't believe how well it sounded.- cired

The absolute BEST amp for the LCD-3 (only vote if you have heard the mjolnir and at least one other amp, preferably most on the list)
I really liked the V200 with my LCD 2.2's. Not sure if it is just me but I possibly liked the LCD-2 better than the LCD-3 out of the V200.- cired

HD650 + Nuforce Icon HDP (+ future HD800) -- need cable
Not sure about the cable. I used to own the HDP/HD650 combo on my desktop and I thought that was a nice all around starter setup. Personally I wouldn't worry about the cable thing for now and just save up for a better dac/amp so when you do get the HD800 you would have something descent to drive...- cired

[Review] Nuforce Icon HDP
Just tuned in to this discussion. Used to have the HDP paired with the Senn 650's. That was a nice setup. Such a small footprint on the desk that offered quality sound for the cost.- cired
