Sony PHA-1 portable DAC/amp
So, time we call for the extended battery-cover, using the charging contacts - not the USB. Make this love last :)- skrivefeil

Reply to review by 'skrivefeil' on item 'Beyer Dynamic DT 880 Premium 600 OHM Headphones'
You ought to start listing the equipment you use in your reviews. Either you're not at all powering these cans, or you just have a total mismatch of equipment. These should sound pretty nice given the right amplification.- skrivefeil

On USB cables and controller transfer modes (a series of questions to/replies from usb.org)
As a side note on the USB 3 matter, my (USB powered) Nuforce uDac 2 prefers my USB 3-port when powering my 600 Ohm Beyers. The uDac is officially recommended for 32 - 300 Ohm headphones, but you know, recommended, recoschmended. The USB 3 is capable of delivering higher voltage, which in...- skrivefeil

Review of Little Dot MKV Dual Mono Solid State Headphone Amplifier
Nice work, Radical! I think you had the exact same problem as I'm experiencing with my LittleDot DAC_II (the DAC with integrated head amp). Will try that some day soon, fingers crossed.- skrivefeil

Fake Miles Davis Tribute?
Not quite true. I had an incident like this. Paid $150 for the IEMs, some 20-25 in shipping, and then about 50 in taxes when they arrived in Norway. I got only the original $150 back AND I had to pay for shipping back to the US (with tracking). Shipping back was about $70, mostly because eBay...- skrivefeil

The HD598's cable's got a 3,5mm plug in the headphone-end which you can twist and pull out. Should probably be shorter replacement-cables with 3,5mm in the amp/player-end available soon. Without it you would need the gigantic adapter, which is not at all an elegant solution. Portability...- skrivefeil

How to disassemble DT770?
Spooky; I don't know what purpose the cotton ring serve, but probably some dampening? What I do know is that removing the metal pins that held it together fixed my rattle. It looked kind of cheap and badly done, so I removed them and sew the ends together instead. Worked like a charm for me.- skrivefeil

Will a PB1 Toucan power a DT 770 600ohm?
Grosse Uli! I'm with Flintvic on that one - please keep us updated! :-) I have Beyerdynamics lates editions of the DT770, DT880 and DT990, all 600 Ohm. I could always need some advise on matching amps. I'm preferably into desktop setups, but one portable one, for fun, wouldn't be so bad...- skrivefeil

UPCOMING Little Dot DAC
Hi! I have a LittleDot MK IV SE, and wanted to match it with a LittleDot DAC. At the moment I am trying to figure out wether to go for the DAC 1 or 2. Right now I have Beyers DT990, 880 and 770, all 600 Ohm, and the possibility to use two sets at once seems nice, though I realize the DAC...- skrivefeil

Indeed, I noticed! Your post was actually the one that made me upload my own picture :-) I was considering on getting the same combination as you, either for a pair of 770s or 880s a while back, except matt champagne instead of the glossy rust-brown(?). Ended up getting a speeding ticket...- skrivefeil

Thanks a bunch for replies :-) The seller insisted on these being both Sigma-models. I really don't have any idea of the differences between the Lambda's and Sigma's looks, but a little reading gives me the impression it's all about personal taste soundwise..- skrivefeil
