Bump! :)

Hello! Up for grabs here are a wonderful pair of HD 800 SDR headphones. These have the genuine French-made resonators (installed properly). I cannot find any evidence of paint chipping/flaking anywhere on these. They are, to me, in excellent cosmetic condition. The pads are new(er), I replaced...

Hi all, A couple questions for those who are knowledgeable. First, I was wondering what tube would be a considerable upgrade from the stock new production Tung-Sol 6SN7 GTB? New or NOS readily available for under $200 is preferable. Second, as I understand it, the Lyr 3 is a "hybrid" tube amp...

Hey guys, I recently sold my X1's and bought X2's. While these are great for home use, I'd really like to find a closed driver equivalent for these to take on the go. I need something that's not going to leak sound outside, especially seeing as how I'd sometimes be using these in a corporate...

Hey guys,   I just got two JBL 305's to go along with a Schiit stack for computer audio. Just tried them with the MacBook Pro, and after a few minutes of playback the right channel speaker started popping. It persists even after disconnecting the cable, and can only be stopped by flipping the...

I have a Schiit Modi and Magni 2 Uber stack that will draw sound from the PC's SPDIF port for the speakers, along with a "SupremeFX 2015" audio card built into my motherboard (which is a Maximux VIII Hero). The built in sound card drives all the audio jacks, so there's no need to buy a discrete...

Hey guys,   Which headphones do you think are the best for gaming and music at a price point of $350 or lower? I don't really want to buy two pairs for high quality gaming and music playback, so one that does the job amazingly well for both is the aim.   It was always the intent to buy X2's...

No one has any idea???

Hey guys, I'm throwing away my Bose Companion Series II speakers for a JBL LSR305 pair.   1) Can anyone recommend a DAC that will feed audio from my computer's SPDIF/optical out? Can I get one with a volume control knob, and that will allow me to hook up a sub should I decide to add one in the...

Can anyone verify this???

I read somewhere that these matching subs can just splice into the main speakers' feed line, and don't need their own separate output from a controller?? http://www.jblpro.com/www/products/recording-broadcast/3-series/lsr310s#.VjNw33o8KK0

A JBL LSR305 speaker pair (which seems to be the most recommended) goes for $250 on Amazon, it seems their price has dropped a bit. How are those compare to the Pioneer? Can I hook them up via SPDIF?

Thanks for clarifying. Can you or any of the other knowledgeable gentlemen here point me towards some specific pieces of hardware, or an audio shop will have people able to help me pick out components?

I guess there's really no problem with building a system as long as it's not going to take up a huge amount of space. I was picturing speakers larger than the size of my head when envisioning a self-made speaker combo. I've never actually done that before, and have no idea how (shouldn't be...
