Hello everyone... I have Dynaudio BM5A Speakers but due to my downstairs neighbours having a kid recently... I feel like I shouldn't play music loud, when they are home... I tried posting in...

So I got these for christmas and I have been enjoying them so much, but I want to know how to make them sound even better than they do now. So what equipment should I get to achieve that effect, I'm running them through my Ipod and laptop. 

Now that I should be studying for my midterms, I thought it a fine time to post my impressions of the Total Bithead from Headroom. http://www.headphone.com/headphone-amps/amplifiers/headroom-total-bithead.php. I got this as a Christmas gift, so no comments on the price/value as I paid $0. Yay...

I just bought some sennheiser hd 203's, i am new to the world of headphones and headphone amps however i do have an extensive background in home audio.  this will be for use with my iPod classic 120gb all music is ALAC and i will be using a line out direct cable.  i listen to blues, classic...

Hey guys, I'm looking for an inexpensive amp to drive my m-audio q40s. Ive read a lot on portable amps, but I'm not sure which ones fit me best. I got an amazon card for christmas, so I figured I use it on an amp. I dont really want to go any more expensive unless its really worth it, because I...

  First, I'd like to say I'm somewhat of a new audiophile (and this is my first post here after much searching), and have only purchased my first pair of real headphones a few months ago (senns 448's) but my question mostly has to do with tv audio, as I'm very confident it'll more than meet my...

Which do you think is better and please explain.

Hey all,   I finally invested in a real headphone amp/DAC for both home and portable use.  Previously, I'd been using my receiver for my surround sound as an amp and DAC (with optical TOSLINK cable from my Desktop into my receiver), and while it boosted clarity and cut the shrill out of my...

Ok, I've searched for hours upon hours and cant really narrow anything down yet. ~$100 would be a good limit.   I'm basically set on getting the DT770pro 80s I listen to mainly EDM (trance, dubstep, progressive etc) Hiphop/Rap R&B Other types of music are sprinkled in as well.  ...

Hi. I'm running an HD-650 through a Total Bithead, and I've been wanting to upgrade to a high end amp for a long time, but haven't been able to justify the huge jump in price. Separately, I've been thinking of getting an M-audio Profire 2626, a truly beastly looking interface, for recording...

Hi, I am thinking about buying a Total Bithead for use with my iPod and laptop and am curious, can I just use the stock line out to USB cable that is used for transferring music to connect it, or will I need to buy a different cable for that?  Obviously in a pinch I can use the headphone jack...

Hello everyone,   I am in now way considered an audiophile although I would really like to be. I have been listening to music through my stock iPhone 4 headphones for quite some time now and decided I wanted a MAJOR upgrade. I went ahead and ordered the new AKG Q701 Quincy Jones Signature...

I'm about to plunker down over $200 for a pair of grado 325is's, should this review by phil canard waver my decision? http://www.audioreview.com/cat/headphones-home-audio/headphones/grado/sr-325/PRD_123897_2750crx.aspx also, I'm coincidentally purchasing a total headroom bithead amp, is this a...

I am really stuck on this one. I am getting a new amp for sure but am only going to spend around 100 to 150 bucks (I know the Bithead is 159$). What do you guys think is the better choose, or if there are any others that are better. Any advice would be greatly appreciated

hi all, i currently own the hd 238 and while it sounds decent out of the ipod i really think i needs some sort of amplification too, in which case i decided to go after a combo amp/Dac and get the bithead for use with my Macbook as well; however im not sure if i should get that and be happy with...

Hello, I am new to this forum but have been reading for many hours this past month. Since coming to the forum I have purchased a total bithead and a pair of grado sr 225i (which are in the mail). My issue is with my bithead. When hooked up to any of the three usb ports on my laptop, it will...

I am looking to buy Grado 325is, I primarily listen to metal; to name a few bands - Lamb of God, Slayer, Pantera, Metallica, Led Zep, etc.   My budget for the amp is arnd $200. I will be listening off my laptop, .flac files mostly. I was looking at the Total Bithead from Headroom, and since...

I have been happily using my Headroom Total Bithead as a cheap computer amp for about half a year now, usually powering my Sennheiser HD-555s via USB. Lately, though, I'm noticing an unusual amount of skipping occurring in playback. I've verified in Audacity that it's not the tracks; many are...

I got myself a Grado 225 for 150 tax included yesterday. I tried using optical output from my computer to my 7.1 Pioneer  VSX 919ahk amp/receiver, it definintely sound better than outputting from my ipod and on-board sound card from computer.   I am wondering if using Headroom Total Bithead ...

if I were to run the total bithead from a line out/USB dock connected to the Ipod, could I utilize the DAC mode in the bithead, or is this just reserved for computers?   James

I'd hate to post a new thread, but the problem is all the search results were confusing and opposing. I just bought a Cowon S9 and iM-590 and I decided to turn my attention onto my laptop. The on-board sound is truly pathetic, with poor sq and low power output. What I'm looking for is a good...

Is this amp a good combination for this combo?

so, are these two even remotely comparable? From what I've gathered so far it seems that the uDAC is the best choice if you're in this pricerange, but as im about to get a new amp and really like the sound of my current soundcard/headphone combo I would really appreciate having the option just...

Is this a good combo? Or using the TBH as a DAC out is useless and won't affect the SQ? My Laptop is using a probably really lousy sound card(Realtek) So can i have some input?   Thanks

I asked this question in the Computer forum but never got a clear answer.   I just purchased a set of Audioengine A5's. I'm running them from my pc laptop thru the HP out, which as you know is not the best way to go. So I've decided to purchase a portable dac, but since the A5's have an...
