    Wireless headset microphone recommendations?

    Hey all. I'm a trainer and I require a headworn wireless microphone for my training purposes.   I currently have a Samson Airline 77 but it's a bit old now - so looking to upgrade. The thing I like about it is that it was the only one (back then) without a beltpack required.   Generally my...

    Sennheiser IE8 upgrade recommendations?

    I currently use an 80GB iPod 5G (video) converted to an iMod, and then through my LOD with BG caps into my iBasso D10. This all feeds my Sennheiser IE8s, all of which I have to admit are getting a bit long in the tooth, so I'm contemplating a possible upgrade to my IEMs.   I love the clear...

    Hey folks - I got myself the 7007 just yesterday and I'm looking to set it up to stream via AirPlay. Has anyone tried using the Marantz SR-7007 for AirPlay use? Does anyone know the technical nitty-gritty of what I actually have to do? I know I either need a router or access point to plug to the...

    Upgrading an iMod HDD?

      Hey folks. I have an RWA iMod 5.5G, 80GB (fat). However my music library is now well over three times that; so I'm looking to upgrade my iMod. I'm techno-squeamish; I would never dare do it myself, so I'd have to look for someone to help me with that too. Would love an SSD upgrade but...

    List of well-synergised pairings in terms of IEM and DAP(+AMP)

    Hey all. Just wondering if there were some place, perhaps even a wiki where it was listed with all the known DAP+IEM pairings, or DAP+AMP+IEM pairings that work well? I'm particularly interested in IE8, W3 if that helps    Maybe if there isn't anything like that it could be a potential idea...

    Elna vs Black Gates?

    Hey all. I saw an ad in a different audio forum for a DIY iMod LOD which made use of Elna Silmic capacitors instead of the usual Black Gate Capacitors. Any reviews/comparisons of the two capacitors? maybe impressions from some head-fiers who have played around with these capacitors? Thanks

    Dropped my D10

    Hey guys. Earlier on today my heart broke when I dropped my D10. It was on the table and I accidentally snagged a cable (I don't remember which) and it fell to the ground, flat, landing on it's belly. so far everything seems to be working fine, but is there reason for me to worry? THanks!!

    Any small versatile amps like the D10?

    Hi all. What other portable amp/DAC combos provide coax in, or optical in? And maybe also a line-out? I know of the D1 and GoVibe Vulcan, but those are huge monsters. the only portable one I know of is the GoVibe Vulcan Mini. Any others?

    Hey all. I'm currently rocking a Harman Kardon SoundSticks 2 speaker set and I'm looking to further my speaker setup. Preferrably I'd like to start with computer speakers first rather than jump into hi-fi. What do you all think is an upgrade for the SoundSticks 2?

    Whose idea was it? With the iRiver optical out?

    Whose idea was it at first? To try the iRiver H120 with the optical out into the iBasso D10? And I believe, at first, out into the iBasso D1? Who was the guy behind this audio monster? :P

    Hey all!! I'm new to all this full-size headphone stuff. So far I've only been a portable head-fier. So. For me personally I love the sound sig of my IE8. good tight punchy lows, and sparkly highs, and extremely fun. I'm considering a step into the headphone world. Which headphones would be most...

    iMod Vcap dock has a mid-hump?

    Hey all. I'm wanting to purchase this beautiful kit, as it is said to improve LOADS over the already beautiful sound of the black gate caps with iMod. However, a friend of mine told me that the Vcap was VASTLY overrated, and that actually it wasn't that great, with a large mid bias. Can anyone...

    FiiO E5 damages phones?

    Hi guys. I just recently came across the phenomena that is FiiO. Upon further research however, a friend of mine told me that they should only be used with single armature 'phones. He said that with 2-way/3-way etc armature drivers, the FiiO would "burn" the crossover chips. He also said that...

    are there any reviews on these?

    Are there actually any reviews on the iMod before? I only found a review by Stereomojo and that was it. How about reviews of the iMod+Portable Vcap dock? Are there any reviews on the iRiver H100 series and feeding an iBasso D10 through optical too? Can't seem to find any
