What's the best sounding DAP on the market ????
Quote: I went from a clip+ to an S:flo2 and even after 3 years I am still amazed by how wholesomely good it is. In that time I have tried a Cowon and various ipods and they just dont come close. The headphone out is 90% (and wipes the floor with anything I have used previously) there...- hearMotion

My sons first encounter with earbuds - i'm a proud dad!
Quote: Thanks! It was a nice surprise for us actually. The good old Canon 550d (or t2i in the states) with an EF50 1.8 ii lens (which can be bought for less than 100 bucks nowadays). Didnt realise when we bought that it was capable of such high quality full HD video and well within our...- hearMotion

Matrix M-Stage amp review: simple, cheap, and excellent.
Quote: The HRT I dont know sorry but if you do opt for the NFB-3 I can HIGHLY recommend a pair of AD797BRZ (on a Brown Dog adapter) for the M-Stage. I ran the full gamut of opamps for the Matrix out of an NFB-3 until the AD797BRZ and it was a "BAM - thats the one!" moment.- hearMotion

Review: 1964EARS 1964-T
My impressions started their journey today! I will be using with a D10 also - have you experimented with op-amp combinations with the Ts? If so is there a stand-out to report back on? Im still pretty much stuck fast on Rons topkit.- hearMotion

android vs. iphone for sound quailty?
I didnt read throught the entire thread history but for what its worth the HTC Desire sound quality was very average. My previous phone was a blackberry which had excellent sound and by comparison the Desire was noisy with tons of interference (via Sleek SA6). My base-line quality wise is a...- hearMotion

Songs that make your headphone WOOOOOW!!!
Here's a recent find that I really enjoy. The Minecraft Alpha OST. Lush, all electronic but really thickly layered and sparse ambient music. http://c418.bandcamp.com/album/minecraft-volume-alpha- hearMotion

Some cable measurments
Ah you are now at the opposite end of the game. Just as there are multi thousand dollar D/A converters discussed on this site, so too are A/D converters. Its been a long while since I was in the business of recommending an A/D to anyone. Head over to gearslutz and see what the FOTM is there...- hearMotion

Non-audiophile reactions to high-end headphones
At my office desk I have an NFB-3 > M-Stage (TLE2141 class A *win*) and K702 with some of the "Friend or Foe" cloth mods. I get alot of weird looks since the NFB is huge and the M-Stage is a weird shape in its own right. My response is to queue up my all-purpose demo track Alpha Centauri by...- hearMotion

Matrix M-Stage amp review: simple, cheap, and excellent.
My NFB-3 arrived today so naturally I played around with my office desktop setup instead of actually working. I have the NFB-3 feeding the m-stage to K702's. The stock Matrix opamp is OK and the OPA627AU class A mod from coolfungadget sounded pretty nice but not perfect. I then gave the 2...- hearMotion

Two Fingers featuring Sway - What You Know http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ut28nSqrTyk Interesting song - uses a lot of "falling bullet casing" style foley and sounds really tactile thru the K702s!- hearMotion
