Last buy .... old Beyerdynamic dt880 600 ohm ... any opinion ?
Man - these are my second favourite headphone after my hd650s. I was sad the day the left driver died... I would recommend getting a transparent amp, as the beauty of these are how balanced they are - across all types of music. If you are a glasses wearer - they are about as comfy as you get...- hughwi

Help needed with balance headphones and CKIII Amp
Hi guys, I havent been around for a while, and recently pulled some of my gear out of storage, and unfortunately, the balanced DT770s and Balanced CKIII Amp that I bought of FallenAngel sometime ago (around 2008 I think) appear to have developed a fault. - The amp is fine on single output...- hughwi

Spotify claims to be 320k, but I doubt it is. Any **real** high quality streaming music services?
Qobuz has just partnered with SONUS, and I have signed up for a free trial, they offer Lossless streaming for a large part of their library, seems pretty bloody good so far! http://www.qobuz.com/gb-en/offers/music-streaming-subscription- hughwi

Qobuz lowers streaming prices
I just want to add to this, they are now offering 1 month free trials of their lossless streaming service (and it appears to be £19.99/month usually). I am trialling this, as I was looking for a lossless streaming service for my SONUS system (who they have just partnered with). Its a... -
DNA Sonett - First Impressions
I purchased this off the forums yesterday evening, and I have to say, apart from being the most expensive amplifier I have bought to date, the mid-bass is phenomenal! I am listening to the balanced version with a pair of HD650s and I have never heard drums and bass guitars sound like this...- hughwi

Site harder to navigate, and too reliant on javascript.
OK, so I can understand that vbulletin was becoming a pain to administer (I am a web developer and system admin by trade), and I like aspects of the new look and feel. BUT this is absolutely HORRIBLE to use on an iPhone, the excess javascript just kills speed and battery life! Again like many...- hughwi
