So thanks to the people on head-fi ive got quite a lot of info and made some really good informed decisions. I have my portable sorted with a BTR5 & soon to be Hiby R6 pro and have HD599 & soon LCD-2 classics and will prob get some HD660s as well. Id like to use these headphones while at desk...

I have bought a pair of LCD-2 Classics and it comes with the additional XLR balanced cable. I have also bought a balanced mini xlr to 2.5mm TRRS balanced cable for use in my BTR5. Im soon going to be getting a Hiby R6 pro that has the 4.4mm balanced out and was wondering if i get a balanced...

I have decided to treat myself to some new audio gear. I have a budget of about £500 not inc headphones and i don't know whether to go with a dedicated DAP, ive looked at the Fiio M11 or Hiby R5 or R6 pro. Or use my phone as a source and get a dac/amp. Currently have a BTR5 & Sennheiser...

So i got out of the headphone game a few years ago, i had a problem and got clean. This lockdown has seen me start again. I got a set of HD599 and a fiio BTR5 dac/amp using it mostly wired and im enjoying it...but I know i can get better and ive started looking at HD660s & LCD2 Classics...

Hi all   Im after getting a pair of blue tooth headphones but not sure where to start.   they will be used for dog walking, i dont want in ear as i dong get on with them.  Ideally on ear but over would do as long as not too big & good sound quality.   I currently have the Audeze Sine which...

Hey people.   Im thinking of getting some open cans.  Im not sure what to get.   Itgs very difficult for me to demo so have to rely heavily on reviews and recommendations.  Im looking at the HD650 & Q701.  Im not a fan of the senheisser sound but have read that the 650s dont really suffer...

So as per title my N5 has broke and im in need of a new DAP.   I have had Fiio X3ii, Ibasso DX50 & 90 and N5 was better sounding than all.  Is there a similar sounding and priced DAP with all its features?  Or something new i dont know about.   Thanks

So i come to the head-fi world a couple of years ago starting with a cowon J3 and a pair of JVC S680s a couple of years agao and have been visiting ever since upgrading and so getting help with headphones and players so naturally i want to upgrade again and thought i would ask here as you all...

As head-fi members were so helpful in finding me a decent pair of closed cans i thought i would come here for help with buying a pair of open cans as i understand they will sound a lot better than closed.   They will be for home use only and used with a fiio x3 2nd gen with e11 amp.   Im not...

Im after a new set of headphones my budget is £200 / $300.   I have a pair of CALs at present and really like the sound but im after a wow factor, i have a pair of B&W P5s they are burning in but i dont think they really have that much better sound compared to the CALs so these may well be...

I have a new X3 2nd gen player and am using CAL cans which i really like only had them two weeks (moved from the JVC HA-S680) but i have ordered the AT ATH-M50X as i feel the player deserves a better set.  I got them and the right side not working so returning to amazon.  From only listening to...
