IMPORTANT : Ok, first off these impressions were taken on 2nd Jan, so there was a rather significant amount of alcohol in my system which could have significantly impaired this review. I have not used any testing methodology and so anyone reading this needs to take what I say with tons of salt...

Hi, I am intrigued by this pocket sized amp. Notwithstanding the amp builder's glowing review of his own products, the specifications look amazing ! 700 mw of power @ 32 ohms is amazing considering the size and price of the amp.   http://hotaudio.com/   Now the reason I am asking is that...

The left side driver of my HD650 failed a few days back.   Fortunately Sennheiser is one of the few top teir headphone manufacturers officially available in India and they have a spare driver is stock. (Approx $66 with 2 years warranty).   Now I have used the HD650 for more than 2 years...

Hi, I am interested in getting a LD MK III but I have this nagging question in my mind regarding the longevity of the amp. If they don't last very long then perhaps I will be better off spending more and getting something better that (should) last (like maybe a Woo ? )   So please let me...

Ok, my appologies if this has been answered before but in my defense I have tried the search option and came up with zilch. What I wanted to understand is that why people get portable amps to drive IEMs. I mean instead of spending $350 for a RSA amp to pair with a $150 earphone, why not...

Ok, creating this thread for the benifit of all Bravo tube amp users who want to upgrade their PSU to something better. Please post if you have successfuly upgraded your PSU and from where you bought it from. A head-fi member hi-flight has been gracious enough to post a link to a similar...

First off, thanks to MP4Nation for providing me a testing sample. This is one earphone that really needs a thorough burn-in before you can listen to it. Just out of the box, I would not pay over $5 for them. They were extremely sibilant with harsh treble. Many users of the Beta...

Its price has dropped and from its specs its seems to have more power compared to the similarly priced Qinpu A3 which got decent reviews here. Its on sale now. Anybody took a plunge to try it out ? Head-Direct.com | YUIN

Hi, I am planning on upgrading my Hotaudio Mark IV PCM2705 and Govibe PCM2702 based DACs. I cant spend a lot on the DAC so my budget is max $200 with shipping extra. Now I want a discrete DAC as I have a separate amplifier. I plan on using a colored Tube amplifier so I want my DAC to be...

Hi, was wondering how this particular tube sounds - JAN Philips 6922 6DJ8 - eBay (item 400076713824 end time Dec-31-09 08:00:16 PST) I was thinking about getting one but was wondering if this was any better than my current Sylvana 6DJ8 tube. Also do let me know if there are any other good...

First a little background, I won a Govibe DAC in one of the many contests that Uncle Wilson from Jaben Singapore throws on his forums. The people who participated in the contest but did not win anything received a free Hippo Boom earphone to make them feel better ! Since I already had a DAC...
