Hey guys,   Just got my e7 in the mail today after being stranded with just the e9 for a couple of months. Unfortunately there is a little connection issue. I was under the impression that the e7 came included with a usb cable that could plug directly into the e9. The problem is, the input...

Hey guys,   So I've finally started to come to terms with headphone audio, but I am absolutely clueless as to go about setting up a speaker system. I have a good idea of the gear I want, but I just had a quick question. I am looking at a jolida...

Looking for a pair of durable iems/earbuds that are cheap (I mean like REALLY cheap, 30 bucks tops) that still have some semblance of sound quality. Any ideas?

Ok, so let me preface this by saying I know less about computer audio/speakers than I do with headphones...and that's pretty terrifying. Basically, I'm beginning to start and plan out a system for no more than 800ish which I'm planning on buying by the end of the summer. Thing is, I'm not really...

About to bite to bullet and order some, I'm hoping they are at least somewhat similar to the version 1s which everyone seems to rave about.Has anyone had the chance to compare the two?

So I tried searching but I couldn't really find any conclusive results in my price range. Short story long, I'm looking for a nice pair of iems which I could drive directly from my ipod classic. Price ceiling is 100 bucks, but if theres anything around the 60-70 dollar range that would be even...

Hey all,   So I've decided I'm going to wipe my 80gb ipod classic of all my terrible 128 itunes purchases. What I'm planning on doing is to move all my flac stuff onto it. However, since its a classic and I can't rockbox it, I need to switch the flac to alac. I'm running my flac on foobar...

Hey guys,   I'm in the process of getting a portable rig going and I've just started to look around for a decent pair of IEMs. I really don't know a whole lot when it comes to them, so I thought I might as well throw my question out there. Basically my question is, with a limited budget...

Been having a bit of a problem with ripping the redbook layer off of one of my hybrid-sacd's. It's strange, because I don't have this issue with all of them. What happens is that the eac ripping starts normally but generally freezes at an arbitrary percentage and I just give up at that point...

My Good Sirs and Mesdames:   I thought I might be so bold as to address this fine forum with a query. It has been a day or so since weathering the Great Portuguese Spam Storm of '11, and I do hope my fellow fellows have come through unscathed. Whilst perusing the aftermath of this tempest, I...

  Just ordered an e9 the other day and I decided to hold off on buying the e7 because of some posts I've seen stating that Fiio has an e17 in the works that handles 96/24. I even recall some tidbits being posted by the fiio rep on here...can't find them though. I know fiio is currently...

Greetings oh great ones,   After scrounging up about two months worth of ramen rations, I am finally at the point of being able to buy an amp/dac (nfb-12). I am just having some last minute doubts, seeing as this will make my wallet start weeping in agony. I would just like some input as to...

Hey guys,   So I've been looking into getting a dac/amp combo and I think I'm pretty much set on either the audio-gd nfb 12 or maverick audio d1. Thing is, I've been doing some reading and ran into a bit of a snag. I saw on one thread here that USB is only capable of 44.1/16 rate instead of...

Hi, I just had a quick question about burning in my new dt990/600 cans. Yes, I've used the search function and done a lot of reading about how to burn in and appropriate levels, I just wanted to reassure myself I'm not overlooking something that might damage the drivers. I've had them burning in...

Hey all,   Just about to dip my toe into buying a headphone amp within the next month or so for my beyers, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to order the audio-gd nfb 12. Thing is...I'm just a little leery about plopping over 200 bucks on my first amp without really knowing anything about the...

Just a quick question. I am trying to put together an e7/e9 dac-amp combo for my new dt990/600 cans and I have a bit of a problem. Thing is, I'm broke and can't buy both at the same time. I was wondering if it would be more beneficial to buy the e7 and have a dac I could use as an outboard...

So I know what the answer to this is going to be...but I just want to put up one last futile attempt before my wallet breathes its last.   I recently received my shiny new beyerdynamic dt990/600's and have been absolutely loving them. I was a little worried about purchasing them at first...

Hey all,    Thought I'd poke my head into the community by posting yet another question regarding pairing what amp with what headphone. Sorry...but search function really didn't pull up anything. Ok so anyway, I'll make my question quick. I just ordered a set of dt990/600 cans, and they're...
