Sadly it seems at some point LG may be leaving the phone market, I've been using their phones for a long time now as my portable music player. As an aside I have a DLNA home server pushing my lossless audio so I use my phone and Foobar Android music player to access all that music in my home...

Hello, This post isn't strictly about sound quality as it is for my wife. She has had issues with like 4 pairs of blue tooth ear buds for jogging. Either they stop holding a charge or one of them cuts out. We have had to return 3 pairs of them so far. She prefers the ones with ear hooks and not...

So been an audiophile for decades, and I would finally like to take a dive and hear the quality of a tube amp. I'm more of a main system audio guy and I'm happy with my home setup so my portable area would be the best candidate to fit in my desire to try out the sound quality of Tubes. My...

So I've been using windows tablets with AIMP installed as my portable music device for the last 5 years and since then it seems some major strides have been made in DAP's.   I would need a wifi enabled device with seemless DLNA playback. I have 2 TB's of lossless and high res audio and assett...

I have a ton of lossless audio on my home server and use DLNA to serve this lossless audio around my house and to various devices etc.I'm currently using an 8 inch win 8.1 tablet as my home portable music player, I can install various programs on it to receive the DLNA audio it gets around 9 hrs...

D'oh

Just an FYI the surface pro works really well as a source device. Battery is of course not great compared to smaller portable devices but the sound quality of the headphone output is really good. Win8 also has DLNA client capability built in. Using the Xbox music app to browse my DLNA server I...

So I have been pretty happy with my SFLO:2 for the last year as a side note I have been looking for a good Win7 tablet for pretty much the last 5 years. Little did I think these paths would cross.   As you know win7 tablets have been slow to come out, people have harped that Win7 cannot be...

Ok so last year I bought some Yurbud adapters for my IEM's. for those that don't know these are fitted earbud adapters, that act like semi custom earpieces. They are pretty cheap. You take a pic of an earbud in your ear upload the photo to their website and they size you according to that photo...

There are a few better than normal deals for Monster Turbine Gold's coming from the HK. I have not run into any fakes in my years of ordering things from there but I'm just wondering if anyone has heard of any fakes of these making the rounds?   I'm slighlty leary even though they have a...

So about a month ago i got some Hippo VB's just on whim from some good reviews I saw here. To put it bluntly these replaced my Atrio M5 within a few mins and I have really enjoyed them since. Best sounding IEM I have owned and for only 80$ they are a steal. The IEM's I have used over the...

Having trouble finding a cable like this, does anyone know a place that sells one? Something like this in the link below, but only about one inch long and high end, like with silver interlaced wiring, I'd spend up to 75$ on it. Currently I'm using a high end ibasso cable to connect my...

So I got my wife a ZuneHD after her Zune8 was stolen a few months ago. I of course took took the opportunity to compare it with my trusty Zune30 which has had a 100Gb drive slapped in it. So I was happy to see the EQ preset return after complaining for years that it was completely dumb...

Interesting concept here Custom Fit Earbud Enhancers: Get Fitted | yurbudsâ„¢ earbud enhancers, looks like a semi customized in ear cover for earbuds, but they make an adapter that is supposed to work with IEM's. Has anyone used these with IEM's, specially the Atrio M5's? I've always had a...

I have had the Atrio M5 V.2 for about a year and a half now and REALLY love the way they sound. Thinking for tax return time I may make the plunge into the Atrio customs since I like the M5's so much. Only real issue is I have yet to see any real user reviews of them to see how much better...

Well stupid me was listening to my Atrio's and I sat down then a few mins later stood up and the cord to my left ario got snagged. Feels like a I pulled it a little loose. It still sounds fine but I'm afraid if it's loose inside it's gonna rip out and ruin it. I tried but I do not seem to...

I like my Zune30 but after yesterday's disaster I may want to keep an eye open for other options. I put a 100 GB hard drive in my Zune30 so I now have about 95GB worth of CD's on it ripped using WMA Lossless. I would prefer to keep my WMA lossless files intact and just sync them with another...

I may be retiring my zune30 after today's zune30 disaster, for those that don't know every zune30 died today across the globe. to replace it my best option is a 320GB Archos 7. I have read a lot of conflicting thing on sound quality and even a spec sheet that said the Archos has a 69 s\n...

In my search for the perfect portable amp for myself I have found on lacking feature in all of them. No built in EQ. Most have a bass boost, gain boost and even variable Xross feed. With these options it seems a pretty easy move to a full EQ. Ironically Koss makes a cheap portable...

Yeah I know this may be a mismatch but was wondering if anyone here had both portable amps and could compare? I have the FIIO E5 and it sounds pretty good, much much better than the E3 so don't assume the E5 is crap based on how the E3 sounds. Now I don't doubt the XM5 or any other higher...

I've done some research but there are so many options it is really confusing. I'm hoping someone here can point me in the right direction for a portable amp that would meet my needs My equipment is currently a Zune30 I use Atrio M5 V2 and Super.fi EB5's for my IEM's. As you can tell by my...

I'm an admitted bass head but not because I listen to rap or hop hop. I mainly listen to classic rock. I'm also a pretty big audiophile my home system runs around $25,000 with Lexicon, Bryston, Magnepan and Anthony Gallo components. My goal for an IEM was to get as close to a home stereo...

Hi I've had a pair of Super.FI 5 EB's for some time now and am pretty happy with them but currently looking to upgrade. My only issues with the 5 EB's are they kind of hurt my ear a bit after wearing them for more than an hour or so. Thing is the 5 EB's have the best Bass I have heard out of...

Currently I use a pair of Super.fi 5 EB's with my Zune. I listen to only lossless audio and am a fairly picky audiophile. I like the 5 EB's because of the great bass response on them. They are the closest IEM I have heard that resemble the sound of my home stereo. So has any used the 5...
