What Are You Listening To Right Now?
This album was some of her best work. IMO, her top five albums were the first two solo albums, the two Little Willies albums, and this one. -
What DAC? Up to $1000...or maybe up to $1500.
I guess just a little info on where I'm at might help with suggestions. The Stello DA220 came out in 2004. It was originally around $1200. I think I got it used from a Head-Fi friend for $750. It was, at the time, highly recommended, and reviewers often compared it to DACs that cost $3000 or...- Jasper994

I'll definitely take a look at it. Thanks. One other thing I didn't mention before. The Pontus II does meet this requirement, but I do want a balanced DAC.- Jasper994

No, I haven't. The last time I went to a meet, they were just starting to come out (gain popularity), but I was there more for social reasons then to actually listen to anything. I spent the day hanging out with LFF, and don't think I really listened to anything. I've met the Schiit guys, but...- Jasper994

Oh oh, the bug has bitten me again. I'm thinking about possibly getting a new DAC. I currently have a Stello DA220, which is a darn good DAC, but I'm wondering what's out there right now up to $1000, and perhaps as much as $1500 that would surpass what I already have. I do love how punchy and...- Jasper994

2012 Headphone Meet @ LAX Hilton - Saturday, August 18, 2012 - OFFICIAL THREAD
I just bought the tickets for myself and Iron_Dreamer. Please make sure that we both have badges. Did I read correctly that parking discount coupons would be supplied at registration? Also, will we be able to come and go with the parking or are we stuck there all day?- Jasper994

Funny Observation
Quote: I don't know about that... The industry isn't completely stupid. If people are willing to spend more on a headphone as a fashion accessory, then we'll just have more fashion accessories that cost a lot. It wouldn't necessarily have any bearing on sound quality, and when you throw...- Jasper994

Funny Observation
So I was looking through the Staples Ad and noticed the Solo Beats by Dr. Dre are $180, and it made me laugh. Apparently, if your headphones are a fashion accessory, then $180 is a perfectly reasonable price (seems like every kid around this town has a pair), but if you spend $180 for headphones...- Jasper994
