Looking to get my Boss some new headphones, similar to the iBud shape.
Hey everyone, My boss loves music. I bet he listens about 2/3 hours per day. Easy. But, he uses his Apple Earbuds that came with his phone. I LOVE my RE-0's, but I don't think he likes the style that actually goes into the ear. So, what are some nice portable headphones...- DaggothReborn

Optical vs Coaxial 2013
I was also leaning towards Optical. Either way, I doubt I would hear a difference, but I figured as fast as technology changes, maybe one has risen over the other. -
Optical vs Coaxial 2013
Hey guys, I have been doing some research, and I can only seem to find some articles from a few years ago, nothing recent. My Bifrost will be in tomorrow, and I'm not sure if I should use Optical vs Coaxial. So, what does everyone prefer? (Setup will be...- DaggothReborn

Could someone give me a technical answer as to why Multiple DACs are better then a single DAC?
I understand more is generally better, but I'm looking at a new BluRay/SACD/CD/DVD etc player, and it has FIVE Wolfson WM8740s... FIVE. Why would I want FIVE DACs??- DaggothReborn

What CD/SACD Players should I be looking at for under $500 USD?
Quote: I would much rather have a new one. Two channel would be fine. I will only be listing with my headphones. Quote: Ah, I had just assumed that most high end CD players had SACD capabilities. But in that case, yes, I would prefer a GOOD CD player over a decent...- DaggothReborn

What CD/SACD Players should I be looking at for under $500 USD?
I'm about to get into CD/SACDs. I've previously done all my listening off my Desktop PC>X-FI Titanium HD>Schiit Valhalla>DT880 600Ohm. I was looking at the Azur 650C by Cambridge Audio. I'm not really partial to any brand. I would just need a dedicated CD player. So what brands should I be...- DaggothReborn

Just started listing to Ludovico Einaudi. AMAZING.
I am amazed how awesome the Divenire album is so far... I have never heard of him before. Found Divenire on my external hard drive in FLAC and was like "Whats this?"... And I've been listing since then. Super amazed....- DaggothReborn
