    Dac for 007 Mk2 and 323s amp

    I'm thinking about getting the 323s and the Mkii, but I'm a bit lost regarding DAC options (below 1000usd preferably). From the little I've gathered so far I've seem the cambridge dacmagic (100 and plus version), and the W4SD2 dacs (Both version 1 & 2). I'd apprecite any inputs from anyone who...

    JH Audio JH16 Pro First Impressions

    I'm using my JH16's with the centrance dacport. I've also tried straight from my ipod touch / iphone 4 and had the same issue. To be honest, I have a blackberry earbud, and the mids on the JH16 DO compare to the blackberry's earbud. So I'm not sure if that's neutrality or what. But is rather...

    JH Audio JH16 Pro First Impressions

    Has anybody experienced shallow / pale mids? I'm not sure if it's me or not. Is it in anyway warm as the mids tubes produce ? Because that's somewhat laking in my opinion. Not sure if its because its damn precise or too analytical that it takes away the musicality or so. The bass is tremendously...

    JH Audio JH16 Pro First Impressions

    I received my JH16 few days ago, and tbh I'm not impressed at all, I'm hearing alot of sibilance, the mids are too pale, the soundstage is a triangle, the details are there and the resolution is very good, but still, I'm not satisfied at all. Is it possible that they need some burn in ? My fit...

    iBasso D42 "Mamba" with dual dacs! !! Hey Hey! Improved Starting on Page 76 .

    Will the JJTV Portable amp + DAC or the Iqube V2 drive the HD650s better than the D4 with topkit and stock buffers and 9v battery plus 5v for the dac section ? I read that the JJTV is able to drive any cans up to 600ohms withouth a problem. Which one of these three has more power to...

    iBasso D42 "Mamba" with dual dacs! !! Hey Hey! Improved Starting on Page 76 .

    Also, Anyone here know how does it compare with the new TTVJ portable dac amp. Looks like they would be even more suitable for driving the HD650s. Am I wrong ? Thanks

    iBasso D42 "Mamba" with dual dacs! !! Hey Hey! Improved Starting on Page 76 .

    Is there anyway that the 9V battery section can be powered by a usb port, or even two ? So I dont have to worry about recharging the batteries, since Ill be mostly using it with my laptop, and I DO need to use 9v + 5v since Ill be driving Hd650s. Is there any adaptor like this ? Usb to 9v, or...

    Has anyone here tried to connect headphones directly in the balanced XLR outputs directly instead of the headphone out ? Like a balanced HD650 for instance.

    JH Audio JH-13 PRO impressions thread

    Im thinking about ordering mine with the ''ambient vent'' feature, What do you guys think about it ? The idea is to use them sometimes as an open can.. Sometimes I feel claustrophobic using headphones and I just need to hear the outside world for a moment, but at the same time I still like to...

    Anyone here can make a quick comparison between Jh13 and a nice hd650 rig ? Thanks.

    Looking for suggestions.

    Im probably going to pick the 650s, But the annoying thing is that it will require more amp than the D10 has to offer. Is there any similar headphone that is easier to drive than the 650s ? Any more inputs ? Thanks

    That is a nice idea, Headphone + Subwoofer. But right now its really difficult, again , its hard to find something good for a decent price around here without having to import. Importing a Subwoofer would be to expensive. Headphones are small , and thats what im considering right now. Im...
