Is Questyle out of business or do they just completely ignore support emails?
I was wondering if Questyle is out of business. I have a CMA 400i DAC/AMP and it has a very audible hum coming out of the left channel of the balanced XLR output. I am not sure if it is also coming out of the 2.5mm or 6.35mm outputs, as I do not have one of these cables for my HD-650's and my...- Airwolf

Monoprice SonicSolace ANC Bluetooth Headphones - Anybody tried them?
I was curious if anybody on here has pulled the trigger on these Monoprice ANC headphones https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=16218 They have good reviews on the site, but I am not too trusting of site ratings, such as these. I would be interested to hear what any Head-Fi'rs think about...- Airwolf

Looking for a high quality USB microphone adapter
I am using Windows 10. It's more a desire to not have another sound output device in my list of output devices. I currently have 12 to choose from.- Airwolf

Looking for a high quality USB microphone adapter
Does anybody know of a high quality USB microphone adapter? I am currently using an Antlion Audio Modmic 4.0 and I am forced to keep using my onboard Realtek HD Audio because, obviously, my Schiit Bifrost doesn't have a microphone input. I saw that Antlion sells a $10 USB mic, but it has an...- Airwolf

Suggestions for all-in-one headphones/MP3 player for swimming
I am hoping some people with hands-on experience can help recommend an MP3 player for swimming. I just swim in a lap pool and need something to help with the boredom. I bought a pair of Sony NWZ-W273 waterproof earbuds that wrap around the back of your head and have an integrated MP3 player...- Airwolf

I saw the thread you linked. I just cant bring myself to read through 373 posts haha. Is there any kind of TL;DR for Uber -> 4490? Or even Uber -> Multibit?- Airwolf

Nothing new here. Just a satisfied Bifrost user.
I recently upgraded from using onboard sound on my PC to a Schiit Bifrost Uber USB that I purchased used from another user here. I just wanted to say that I am shocked at how much of a difference it made going from using my PC as a DAC to switching to this Bifrost. My motherboard is an ASUS...- Airwolf

Looking for advice on an external DAC for PC gaming and listening
I think I am probably going to go with the Modi 2 non-uber. As far as I can tell, there isn't much benefit (if any) going to the Schiit Bifrost or another more expensive DAC.- Airwolf

HiFiMAN Focus Pads durability concerns
I have to say, I am genuinely impressed that @TeamHiFiMAN proactively reached out to me to replace the pads. That is above and beyond my expectations and shows that they have great customer service.- Airwolf

Looking for some desktop computer speakers. I would appreciate some recommendations.
The speakers would mostly be for playing computer games. I have a home theater w/ HTPC for most other activities. I would prefer something I could just hook up to the pre-amp outputs of my Asgard 2, so I don't have to switch around cables.- Airwolf

Looking for some desktop computer speakers. I would appreciate some recommendations.
I generally use headphones when I am at my computer because I live in a condominium complex and my neighbors pound on the ceiling if my cat farts too loud. I do, however, have the need for some speakers every once in a while; usually when friends are over. As the speakers will only be used...- Airwolf

HiFiMAN Focus Pads durability concerns
I have had focus pads for my HE-400's since September of last year. I use my HE-400's pretty much 7 days a week on my main computer at home. I have noticed that the synthetic leather is starting to separate from the plastic rings that secure the pads to the headphones. I am generally...- Airwolf
