    Looking to upgrade from HE-560

    I currently have a HE-560 and UE reference monitors. I am using a Schiit Jotunheim to drive both. I think I'm looking for something a bit more detailed than the HE-560 without sacreficing the nice bass it has. I'm afraid any non planar is going to have me missing the planar bass, but if I go...

    mobile source w/ protected ports $200ish

    Opinions: IEM for competitive gaming?

    i use ultimate ears reference monitors for gaming. I use them for hours on end with no problem. I mean custom molded IEMs are designed around comfort. It seems kind of absurd to suggest that they couldn't be comfortable enough for hours of use in gaming imo.

    Toxic Cables - Impressions and Discussion Thread

    Battle Of The Flagships (58 Headphones Compared)

    i think the scope of his reviews is such a good thing though. Its so easy to look at one headphone you both have used and then compare it to another one he has reviewed that you have never tried. Hopefully he is having so much fun that he has completely forgotten about this site.

    Schiit Jotunheim Review / Preview - Head-Fi TV

    So often times i'll be listening to something and i'll think that the seperation between the left and right sounds very artificial. And i'm wondering if that is because the dac on the Jot isn't very good or because the source isn't very good.

    = HiFiMAN HE-560 Impressions & Discussion Thread =

    using the Jot with a balanced cable works pretty well with the 560. Using the 560 and Jot with a grounded cable is a bit bright.
