Any comparisons between the Cayin C5 and Neco Soundlab?
I'm curious if anyone has owned both of these portable headphones amps and would like to share their differences. Any version of the neco works. Thank you!- Hydrocharged

Portable DAC when I already have an amp?
Hello everyone! I'm looking for a portable DAC that I could use with my Galaxy Note 3, and I already have the Cayin C5 amp, so I'm just looking for something to do the processing instead of the phone. Most portable DACs that I can find also have amp components (as people rarely want to carry 3...- Hydrocharged

Looking for $70 (or less) dedicated DAC for setup!
Hello! As some background, I used to have a complete setup that featured my HiFiMAN HE-400, along with the Emotiva mini-X a-100 amp. My DAC was USB-powered, but I cannot remember too many details about it. I honestly bought it as I got a good deal on it, and wasn't too worried about the DAC side...- Hydrocharged

It's a sad Christmas...
Well guys, today has been a day filled with excitement and depression. I had bought a used pair of Denon D2000s from the FS forum here, but I couldn't use them until Christmas (mother's money, my Head-Fi account). I bought them at the beginning of the month, so I'm sure everyone can imagine how...- Hydrocharged

Is the ATH-ES10 what I want for Christmas?
I seem to post quite a few threads asking for advice on headphones, even though I read a trillion reviews around here. Anyway, I'm thinking about getting the Audio Technica ATH-ES10 for Christmas as I don't have a pair of high end (not ultra high end like the Sennheiser HE90) over-ears. I've...- Hydrocharged

Is the ATH-M50 a good choice for me?
I feel it's time for me to expand my collection of headphones once more! I've been gone for a while and seem to have forgotten 80% of my knowledge of all the headphones and their sound signatures. Anyway, I've been listening to my JVC HA-FX101s recently and have become accustomed to the subbass...- Hydrocharged

Cheap upgrade from Galaxy S?
Currently, I listen to my music through my Galaxy S (the original with the Wolfson) with the Voodoo sound enhancements. Sadly, my phone is dying and I'm looking to go to an older Blackberry (because I love the keyboard, I mainly use my phone for music and texting). I still want great sound...- Hydrocharged

Sub-Bass for $50 or less
I've been away from the headphone scene for quite a while and I'm wondering what the best in ear headphones are that are less than $50 and are strong in the sub bass department. Now, to clarify, I'm not looking for bass heavy headphones, but headphones that can hit low, so low that you no longer...- Hydrocharged

Portable Amps and LOD?
Hello! My question is regarding an amp such as the Fiio E5. I am purchasing a new phone, the SGS II, but the reports on audio quality all point to it being terrible with headphones plugged in. I was wondering if using an amp would increase the audio quality, as the phone only seems to suffer...- Hydrocharged

JH-16's bass compared too...
How would you compare the bass of the JH-16's to, say, the TF10 and XB500? Yes, I know they are two completely different headphones, but I have both and am very, very interested in these customs and need to know about their bass response. Thanks!- Hydrocharged

Westone ES Cable for TF10 question!
From what I've read, the Westone cables improve the mids and highs, but lessen the bass. I really like the bass the way it is right now, but I can't stand the cable at all. I've read that the Lune also has a bass reduction. If anything, I'd like an increase in quality or quantity or to keep them...- Hydrocharged

Listenhear and 1964 Custom Sleeves?
Does anyone have any experience to Listenhear's custom sleeves or the 1964-SLV? And how would you compare them with stock tips? The earphone is irrelevant to me, I just need to know of their quality. I was going to go with ACS but they seem to have very, very long turnaround times. Thanks!- Hydrocharged

Equalizing works this well?
I have the Triple.Fi 10s and had been pretty content with them. For me, the bass response was decent, but it wasn't as I had been expecting it to be after reading about them on this forum (people saying the bass was overwhelming, monsterous, etc.).

Best Custom Cable for TF10 for me?
I've been reading around and I've frequently heard of the Null Audio Enyo and Lune cables. I haven't heard much about how the Enyo's affect the SQ, except by people saying they make them sound "better". From what I've heard about the Lune cables, they increase the clarity of the highs, bring...- Hydrocharged

Best High-End in ear headphones for RnB?
