    Maverick Audio TubeMagic A1 (Hybrid Amp) - Condensed FAQ and Info Thread

    I've had the Maverick A1 for going on two years and use it daily from my PC source. I have yet to have any issues with the tubes.   I haven't listened to enough other amps in this price range to answer your bass question but I think you can find plenty listed here on Head-Fi with decent...

    Koss Review Fun

    Just pulled these out of a long forgotten box of headphones and they still work and look like new. Too funny. Definitely not on my list of "2-buy" headphones but you could do much worse for $10-20.   Looks like all these links are dead now as no more expotv.com. Ah well, it was amusing while...

    Maverick Audio TubeMagic A1 (Hybrid Amp) - Condensed FAQ and Info Thread

    I have the A1 and the D2. Both are connected to a Win10 PC (FLAC) and the D2 is also connected to a Mac Mini (ALAC) and Shanling PCD3000A CD player. For headphones I mainly use Alessandro MS2 and the A1 is ported to a pair of JBL ProPerformers speakers. I've had the A1, with upgraded tubes, for...

    Maverick Audio TubeMagic A1 (Hybrid Amp) - Condensed FAQ and Info Thread

      I was under the impression that, as an integrated amplifier, the RCA was input or tube pre-out only. Has this changed?   Per Maverick Site ... "~~A1 is also a tube pre-amplifier, therefore, you can connect your Amplifier or even connecting a Sub-woofer to the A1 via the tube pre-output."

    Secret Scam of Cheap Earbuds

    I ran across this article, "The Secret Scam Of Cheap Earbuds", that is enlightening on the subject of headphones. I'm not surprised by the article or it's contents. In my opinion, it's easy to see how DAPs and Pods have fueled the headphone revolution. Look around any music store or music...

    For Vinyl Lovers

    Quote: Seriously? That is interesting. I've never considered home-made LPs, but I certainly can see where some die hard collectors would do this to preserve original recordings.   I can't blame anyone for not wanting to try this or play home-mades. I finally gave up my vinyl, so I...

    Impressions- Dayton Wright State Meet.

    Sounds like you all had a great time. Now I'm really sorry I couldn't make it. Ah well, glad it was great and good to see more people made it to this one. Thanks for the info on the gear, some really nice stuff there. I still love the antique look of the Zana Deux. Custom cans? Who's are...

    Ohio State/Columbus/Central Ohio Meetup

    Has this risen from the dead? Is there any hope of a Dayton/Columbus/Cincinnati area meet? It's been over a year since the last one. Since the weather is warming and brightening up, it would be a good time to thaw ourselves out over headphones, gear, music and good talk. I'm past ready for a meet.
