You're the reason many of us got into this hobby, or even realized the hobby existed. I don't want to be limited in what I say to being friendly to the guys that took your baby, abused it, and kicked you out. You're the reason headfi isn't about being alone in a room listening to music...

I am curious how people use their portable amps that have dacs. Do you still use them with your portable DAPs, or are they mostly for laptop use? I'd never really use one with an ipod, because I'd just use high efficiency headphones, but I'm wondering what other people do.

I'm looking for something to use my iphone in my car, using my speakers for output and also hands free use. I'm looking at the Motorokr T505, but would prefer something to use line out instead of fm to get it to the stereo. I'd also prefer a full duplex setup. Anything out there that works well...

I'm having a small mini-meet Sept 12 in Kure Beach, NC at a rental beach house from Noon until 5pm, give or take. I'll PM the address to anyone interested who's in the area. It's about 45 minutes south of Wilmington, and 2.5 hrs from Raleigh.

I'm wanting to completely integrate my iphone into my 2003 VW Passat Wagon. Hands free, audio to the OEM stereo, etc. My goal is to be able to listen to the XM/Sirius app through the stereo, and make and receive calls with an integrated hands free (not a headset). Parrot and Motorola both make...

Apogee Electronics > Products > ONE Apogee has announced their next mac only soundcard, the Apogee ONE. Built in microphone, xlr and 1/4" inputs (one of each), and 1/8" headphone/line out, with the big honkin' knob. Black this time, and much smaller. I'm interested in hearing it. Oh...

Small but good. Almost everyone bailed on it, so it was a small group. PeterP's 6SN7 transformer output ac heater amp is a wonder to behold. Great sound, and he was using somewhat inexpensive 6SN7GTBs. Colin's Millet Max sounds really good, as well. The remarkable story is still the pico...

Quote: So, I will pick up where Thrice left off. Anyone interested in a fall meet for DC? I don't mind doing the organizing this time. My preference is Frederick area, but that's just because it's easier/cheaper. I'll help run it no matter where we pick. I suggest either 10/6 or 10/13...

The main advantages of a meat based diet is you don't eat a lot of refined carbs, you get your nutrients pre-processed for you, and you get to be predator, instead of prey. I mean, come on, would you rather be the bunny or the eagle? Plus, bacon tastes better than rice. My cholesterol is...

I'm not really a wordy reviewer, but it boils down to maker's signature sounds, really. The K701s are very nice, good bass, good detail, good space, very hi fi. The RS-1s have better energy, and that amazing midrange that nothing else has. The HHF1s are somewhere in between, with grado energy...

My custom balanced M3 is ALMOST finished, I've heard a LOT of great gear, and will have something approaching an endgame rig in a matter of weeks. But I'm finding myself extremely happy just listening to the ATH-W10VTGs directly out of my shuffle. Now, I'm thinking to myself, why do I have $5k...

I was gonna wait til my 2000th post, and retire at that point with this, but what the heck, here's my review: Wow, they're good! I'll eventually compare them with my PS3000s...check my review of them here: PS3000 review

Woo hoo.

I need a source for these balancing transformers. Cinemag has doubled their price, and has over a month lead time...
