R.I.P. Dr. Amar Bose
Not the biggest fan of Bose, but the Companion 5 sparked the audio enthusiast in me. I'll never forget that!! RIP Dr. Bose- Jaxblack11

Can you REALLY hear a difference between open-back headphones and closed-back headphones?
Open back headphones don't sound like 5 channel home theater systems. They sound like good old stereo, but the difference is that they sound much more spacious than closed headphones.- Jaxblack11

What is wrong with my headphones or headphones jack?
If they worked fine with your laptop then it is probably the iPhone. I personally would contact Apple.- Jaxblack11

Need Help Finding a Good DAC and Amp for AKG Q701s/K702s
Schiit Audio Magni and Modi are great for the K702/Q701. A bit over your price range but they are the best I can think of for the cheap.- Jaxblack11

First Listen: Ultrasone Pro 900's
Would you recommend these for electronic music? My Grado sr225i isn't cutting it for me in that genre.- Jaxblack11

Quote: So you can actually damage an amp if you push it too hard with low impedance cans? Kinda scary, I always thought it was just speakers and headphones that would blow from too much power.- Jaxblack11

Sorry if this question has been asked before, but does anyone here know if asgard 1 or 2 can handle 600 ohms. I'm thinking about getting the Beyer dt880's with 600 ohms.- Jaxblack11

Review by 'Jaxblack11' on item 'Schiit Asgard Headphone Amplifier'
Ever since I became fascinated with sound and music (two or three years ago) I quickly realized audio gear doesn't come cheap. I was forced to only really buy budget gear unless it was my birthday or some kind of holiday. Anyways, Christmas was a week away and I needed to pick a few headphones...- Jaxblack11
