isolation on a shoestring
Hi all, been a while since I've posted here. I've done some poking around in the Computer Audio forum, but haven't found any good info on cheap (<$100) DAC boxes. I'm looking for something that takes TOSLINK or SPDIF input, and outputs to 1/8" or 1/4" stereo mini. Any thoughts? Edit: I should...- Halbyrd

breakage issues with HD280, possible replacement cans
Two questions, somewhat related: 1) My HD280s, which I have absolutely loved, are beginning to show their age. My head is rather large to begin with, and the brittle plastic used with the headband has cracked and broken, to the point where it's being held together by copious amounts of duct...- Halbyrd

pinouts for AV-710 front audio header
This is a fairly esoteric question, but I figure someone in here might have experience with this. I'm trying to hook up the front audio ports on my case to the audio header pins on the AV-710, but I've run into a bit of a snag.

Best iPod line-out?
Not sure if this goes in portables or cables & tweaks, but anyway: Been looking to get a CMoy of some stripe to amp my iPod, and have heard much about the need to get a line-level output dongle to do it right. My question is, how does the SendStation PocketDock LineOut compare with the...- Halbyrd

taming the dreaded Geräuschmonster
I'm in the process of inching my way towards a decent general purpose compy, with an emphasis on gaming and music. Towards that end, I've purchased ThermalTake's Tsunami Dream case, windowed variant (mirror-black finish, *drool*), and I immediately noticed how noisy the fans are. I'll be...- Halbyrd

Amp recommendations
A few months ago, I followed the recommendations of several on this sub-forum, and bought a AV-710. Needless to say, I was blown away by the improvement in sound quality over my crap-ass Soundmax in-built sndcard. As I grow accustomed to this setup, however, I've been noticing some bass...- Halbyrd
