Fancy DAC experiment for THX 789.
Mostly 6xx headphones. I use spotify a lot for the convcience with new songs. Also do a lot of gaming on windows. But I do have a big libary of lossless and DSD tracks and foobar with plugins. I have a xmos decoder, but I use that for my minidsp car PC. Headphones are also balanced along with...- zslipknot

Fancy DAC experiment for THX 789.
So I'm using a THX-789 with just the balanced source out of a focusrite scarlett 2i2. Curious if there is even a point of me spending a lot on a source. If anyone has something with balanced out and is willing, I would love to demo. I'd pay shipping and a whatever extra you need. Thanks mucho...- zslipknot

6XX, HD650, DIY Balanced questions.
Hey everyone. Planning to make my own balanced headphone cables for my THX 789 amp. Curious of what would be the ideal length and wire gauge I should use for the best resistance with the amp+6XX. Also any thoughts you have on connector brands as well as wire brands would be nice too. Don't judge...- zslipknot

Sennheiser HD558 impressions / review
Try my TP mod! Remove the pads, trim and add desired amounts until they sound as silky as you like. I've owned both the 558 and 555, both could use it. Though 558 was a bit more congested no matter what I tried. It's ghetto, but try it haha. You'll be amazed.- zslipknot

Desktop dac/amp combo
Hey everyone, I'm trying to decide between the Monoprice 11567 desktop amp, O2+odac combo, and the Magni/moddi. All I care about is a transparent amp that is at least 900 mW at 32ohm. I'm leaning towards the monoprice amp, unless someone can prove me wrong or recommend something else. Thanks folks.- zslipknot

Nobsound vs FiiO
Haha, cause I posted in the wrong place twice. I'm aware people got tricked with that little tube amp. But the website itself does not list it under tube amps for the most part, and a quick google search could save people from making that mistake. Just a good way to trick people honestly, I...- zslipknot

Nobsound vs FiiO
Hey everyone. I just purchased a FiiO e12. But I cannot help but love the specs to this Nobsound NS-01E, Anyone know if this thing is legit, or of any other portable amps with this much power? Also, am I going to regret getting the e12 instead of the e12a?- zslipknot

Meetup North Hollywood
Hey everyone. Was wondering if there are any folks in my area that have some gear I can try out my HD700s on. I'm curious about buying a new amp perhaps or possibly ditching them for something new. Kinda hard to get used to the harshness. Anyway, don't know any audiophiles in the area and would...- zslipknot
