Have been using FLAC --> Foobar2000 for last 8~ years... time for a change?
So I first indulged in this headphone world about 8~ years ago, and within a couple years, had a pretty good setup with FLAC running out of Foobar2000. Over the years this has progressed to my current setup, FLAC --> Foobar2000 --> Keces 151 DAC --> B22 --> HD800. As I've moved to a new job...- Callous

Playing FLAC on external hard drive WITHOUT Foobar/Windows OS?
So I've had the same setup more or less for five years now: I have a 2TB external hard drive, which is connected into an ASUS netbook, which connects via USB to a Keces DAC, connected via component cables to a B22, which plugs into HD800s. (I know, the Keces needs to be upgraded!) ...- Callous

Darkvoice 332 driving HD800? B22?
Thinking of upgrading to an HD800 soon, does anyone have any experience driving them with a Darkvoice? Might just upgrade to a B22... what are some thoughts regarding this? Thanks!- Callous

HD800s w/ Darkvoice 332?
Anyone have any experience with this pairing? I'm running HD580s w/ Keces 151 DAC & Darkvoice 332, and am looking to upgrade to the HD800s. Will this combo hold me over for a while before I get the funds to upgrade my amp & source? Thinking of Beta 22 in about a year. Thanks!- Callous

Driving Sextetts?
Interesting... I've been checking out a lot of garage sales recently, but nothing has come up. Also, does anyone know of a nice desktop amp/DAC combo for cheap? Something like the total airhead... except with a tube or two. Maybe a larger solid state amp? I swear I've seen things of the sort...- Callous

Driving Sextetts?
Hey guys, I'm moving off to college and can't take my headphone setup with me; I have in my possession right now a pair of Sextetts, but nothing to drive them. Any suggestions? I have to keep it under $150~ though, preferably. Alternatively, I might be looking to get rid of the...- Callous

Hello Head-Fi! Phiaton offers you free gear!
Well, typically, as I don't have time to do much "straight-up" critical listening anymore, comfort is of most importance to me. The next step, I believe, would be clarity and crispness of the sound. However, as I said, I'm usually doing other things while I have cans on, so absolute top-notch...- Callous

Quick Question about uh. Folders.
Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone knew any way to, say, map out all the sub-folders I have in a folder. Right now, I have my folders setup as: "Music" -> (artists) -> (albums). Any way to display this as a list or something in word without actually going through and typing in every single...- Callous

Foobar splitting single FLAC & CUE issue
Hey guys, I have a lot of albums on my computer that are in the form of a single FLAC file (ie. a 55 minute flac,) and a .cue file. When I try to split the tracks in foobar by using utils -> load cuesheet, sometimes, the "title" tag for each individual song doesn't carry over. I end up with 12...- Callous
