My idsp has stopped working. I upgraded to iOS 8.3 and about 2 weeks later all I get is "unsupported accessory" message. Also my LED doesn't light at all. Anyone know what the deal is? HRT not responding by email. What is the phone number you guys called to get HRT? techblogpool since you are...

I use my iDSP with Westone 4 earbuds and he sound is truly impressive for a passive DAC costing just 69.99.  With the AMP no where in sight, this is going to be my high end portable solution for now, along with TuneShell to play my 96/24 FLACS.

ibasso website seems to be totally dead... anyone know whats up?  need software/firmware

  Do you think they can do it without making a bulky XLR connector on the end?  Like maybe make some sort of small connector that you can put on an XLR plug OR a 1/4 inch jack?  That huge XLR-> 1/4 converter adds so much bulk.

I know most of you have transitioned the Fostex to balanced cables and amping, but, frankly, I'm wary to lose the universal connectivity that the 1/4 inch jack offers me right now.  Do they make such a think that you can interchange cables?   p.s. I also have a cambridge Audio DACMagic plus...

Gotcha, I probably won't to be honest, seems like changing a Ferrari - why pay for the greatness to change it?  Others swear by it though.    I'm currently using a Little Dot mmii tube amp, any thoughts about that?

Just got my TH900 pair.  Sorry to be tardy to the party but, oh man, I should have just saved up two years ago and got these.  It would  have saved me the trouble of going through the Beyerdynamic T5p, Grado RS1, JVC dx700, HIFiman he5, and countless others.  I ordered the angled pads to see if...

thanks!         please let me know either here or by priv msg what you think once they get back.  You are right they are great so far, but better is always better! :)

Hey guys, just wanted to say I FINALLY got the Fostex TH 900 after 2 years of scrimping and saving and dealing, and they are amazing. Being a bass fan like i am, the beyerdynaic T5p weren't cutting it.  Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for the tips.  It wasn't that expensive either, they...

first you have to go into system preferences > sound > and pick the sony pha 1   then you have to go into utilities > midi settings > and set the sony PHA-1 to 24/96

Ok, you cable builders out there, get this! I will gladly pay anyone who can successfully build this cable:   I have an external DAC for my iPhone 5.  Right now, I use a custom 1-inch Lighting->USB cable when I am on the go to feed the digital sound out to the DAC (Sony PHA-1).   Now...

I actually tried TuneShell with my FLACs without my external DAC the other day and I have to say with the customizable EQ and the visualizer and the ability to play the FLACs all at the highest resolution the iPhone can output, it sounds at the very least the same as the iPhone player but imho a...

NOt really clumsy and you can hear the difference between 24/96 FLAC and 16/48 ALAC.  No 24/48 in iPhone remember.  TuneShell is pretty much identical to the Apple player, even down to having genius.   So big deal I have to upload in a difference place.  I can even use folders if i want and make...

look below:       As you can see in this image, once you connect your device to itunes, go to the device on the left side, then select the apps tab on the right side, and then you will see the above box in the bottom half of the app tab.  Select TuneShell in the FileSharing box and...

Oh ya Huckfinn! Best part! I suggest best compression FLAC to save space but its easy. After you install TuneShell go to the apps tab in your iphone in itunes when it is connected to your PC or Mac. At the bottom of the tab you will see file sharing for apps. Pick TuneShell and then pick ADD...
