Right!!!  The Black Caps try hard at cricket, but since there is no tackling, rucks and mauls, they're somewhat disabled!!!!

Did anyone happen to mention that the NZs had a brilliant day at the office v. the Aussie's on October 31st, 2015????  Some rugby World Cup or something like that?

Not quite sure how old one has to be to be (or not!) an "old fart", but Happy New Year to one and all!  I'm just thrilled to be still kicking!

It's so good to read that Justin's little gem is still very much on the front pages of the portable amp forum.  So deserving.  I have had mine ever since they Pico Slim came out and it's been with me all over the world, but mostly in the gym with my iMod!  Actually, one of the sound features I...

Good to know Xin is doing well. If you're in touch with him again please say, "Roger sends his best." I think I still have an email address for him. Maybe, just maybe.... Got to post my Xin collection when I get back home.

I know the All Blacks are going to be champions again, but still. How about that upset over the Springboks by Japan??? Okay, lads, time to weigh in.

This is amazing!! I haven't been on head-fi for quite a while and here's something from the distant past. Any news of Xin's whereabouts and wellbeing? I'm going to have to dig out my Xin amps and some rechargebles. It's been so long. Anyone remember his tweak of the tiny Sony radio???? Mine...

What do they say here......look out for your wallet on head-fi????  I have succumbed to this so many times before and here I go again!   Okay, with a flusher than usual beer fund, let's look at an increased budget, but let's keep things reasonable (</= $350)...please!   Thanks for the...

  Thanks, Duncan.  My pm back to you crossed with your response above.  Part of that pm contains the following.   As for the Klipsch X10s, what I like are the following: those silicone gels are so comfortable and isolate well....enough; I do like the bass (best example of this is the organ...

Holiday greetings and salutations, everyone!  Being the proud new owner of an M8 ("Matey"!!), I was wondering if any of your had thoughts on a reasonably priced ($200 or less) set of earphones for the M8.  I posed the question to Duncan in a pm (I'll post what he sends me with his permission)...

I know this is an old post, but I am trying to figure out if I can use a DAC/AMP with a Nexus 10.  From what I have researched everso briefly is something like this:   Nexus 10 (with 4.4) using https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.extreamsd.usbaudiorecorderpro >OTG cable >AMP/DAC...

It would be good to know what are optimal phones/monitors that would work with the Lightning.  Any thoughts?

So, what kind of cable does one use from the S3 to, say, an amp like a Pico Slim or RSA Shadow?  I'm assuming some USB > mini.  That right?

RSA Shadow x2.  Anyone remember the Xin SuperMicro?  Mine still works a charm.
