Portable DAC/Preamp for Fostex TH-600
Hi, I have a Fostex TH-600, that I used to drive with a RSA Intuder hooked to a Sound Blaster Bluetooth DAC. I loved the sound, especially balanced, but it was a hefty package and I switched to noise-cancelling Sony's for traveling by bus. I listen to all kinds of music, mostly pop/rock/indie...- daanh

Looking for an IEM/earphone. Spoiled by Fostex TH-600.
Hi! I use a TH-600 with the RSA Intruder as my portable rig. It sounds amazing, but the Fostex is big, heavy, and makes me sweat in the summer (and look like a geek). I'm looking for an IEM with roughly the same sound signature as the Fostex. The Fostex makes everything sound smooth, neve harsh...- daanh

Hi, I use a Samsung Galaxy S4, connected via USB to a RSA Inruder amp. The micro-USB connection from the phone to the cable is very vulnerable. I use a small OTG cable by JDS labs.

Problem with Neutrik minijack in smartphone
Hi! I normally use my Intruder, but sometimes it's simply more convenient to take just a headphone. BUT: I ordered some Neutrik (or REAN) 3,5mm jacks, and they don't work on my smartphone! They won't "snap" when plugged in the headphone output of my Samsung S4. The phone repair guy tried...- daanh
