Headphones are great, but will never be speakers...
In my opinion speakers and headphones are equal. They both have their pro's and con's which make them both different and both enjoyable. One does not have to be better considering that you can have both and both are designed for different purposes.- hockeyb213

http://www.32ohmaudio.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=63_68_86&products_id=480 it is a amp made by alo audio which is able to pump a ton of current for hard to drive cans and sounds brilliant imo.- hockeyb213

New portable amp
Yeah I am just getting my apache out and I should have the protector this week so I will be able to pretty accurately compare them. Though from what I have spoken to Craig about supposedly it compares pretty favorably for the jh-13's :P- hockeyb213

DAC Amp for AKG K702
I would recommend something like a d10 > rx unit since the d10 has a amazing dac and the rx can drive full size cans better then any portable amp I have heard to date. As for a single unit I don't know of any unit that I am particularly happy with but maybe a pico or a d10- hockeyb213

I just got a email back from Ray so I should be all set to buy the protector. I am interested to see if Ray or someone else will release a portable balanced dac in the near future for a real nice portable balanced computer rig- hockeyb213

I owned a fully balanced b22 + apache and all I am going to say is if you don't have any top end full sizers it isn't worth it just for the 13's the gain you get is extremely diminished returns.- hockeyb213

New portable amp
I am not keeping my apache only because I am about to move into a dorm and there is no space for my full sized rig. I actually sold it to Craig @ whiplash. Plus the apache was utter overkill for the jh-13's yes when I had hd800's and ed8's plugged into them it was total uber awesomeness but a...- hockeyb213

New portable amp
I have tried the shadow, rx, among many others. I was suppose to go to canjam! But the fact I am about to graduate and some other things came up so now I am not going. I think I am going to go the buy and try route. Buy the most appealing amp and if it doesn't satisfy me I will sell at a minimal...- hockeyb213

New portable amp
Yeah I have my imod so it should be pretty wild. I was absolutely in love with the Rx but I may have to give the protector a try before it. Worse comes to worse I can sell the protector if it isn't for me. Brad- hockeyb213

Yeah I am very good friends with Craig (I have bought a lot of stuff from him and he has bought some stuff from me too :P) so I am sure it will be extremely easy.

I have had a p-51 in the past. I think I may end up with the protector but I am going to have to have my current twag cable re-terminated for it. I wonder how the k702's would sound balanced off the protector.- hockeyb213

Cowon S9 vs iMod
I have not heard a s9 but I do own a imod. From all that I have read as a standalone dap the s9 is right up there with the best. But utilizing the line out with a vcap and amp system I am pretty sure that the imod would have a edge over the s9. Also you may want to look into the hifiman which...- hockeyb213

Ogg vorbis
Can someone briefly explain to me how v0, v1, v2 compare? I never used ogg but I need to have the knowledge for a friend and I can't find information on which is better then the other and whatnot. I know Ogg uses vbr instead of cbr which is a more optimal way of compressing the file.- hockeyb213
