Cheap ebay 6120A2 amps - any experience with these?
Quote: The fiio e9 uses opa2134 for the gain stage and tpa6120 as a buffer. This only has a tpa6120. They also used a different cheaper power supply scheme. This might be good for someone looking for something cheap to power demanding headphones.- Nagasaki_Kid

EarPods - Apples newest entry into IEM
Quote: I just did some research and apparently Apple might have dumped Foster for Foxconn for earphone, but I still think they are some type of biocellulose (as paper is bio cellulose). The Taiwan manufacture also aquired some patents from fostex. Quote:- Nagasaki_Kid

EarPods - Apples newest entry into IEM
In the teardown, they describe the driver as paper, but I believe it might be bio-celluose. If we assume that they still use fostex as their OEM and that fostex used bio-celluose in the Denon D1000, Creative Auravana Live and etc. The earpod drivers diaphragm looks like it might use the same...- Nagasaki_Kid

My META42 has a hiss (buzz) when no music is being played. Why?
You need to watch what source to use with a headsave meta42. My headsave meta42 doesn't have coupling caps. also more than likely the gain is set for larger fullsize headphones- Nagasaki_Kid

Had the mdr v6 and the hd280. The v6 has survived while the hd280 lies in pieces. build quality of the v6 is superior in my case. The bass of the hd280 was more impactful and the isolation was better, but to my ears the hd280 sound was un-naturally colored. I perfered the v6 for it's better...- Nagasaki_Kid

Can I run a USB DAC on Grados without an amp?
No, most line out have DC offset which while some headphones can with stand for short periods, will lead to the eventual destruction of your headphones. Also loading a dac output with a low impedance grado might not be a good ideal. Also I suggest buying a amp first.- Nagasaki_Kid
