    Help me, nostalgia

    I was talking about my different headphones/amps to my father and he told me that I've been into this since I'm a child. So he dig up this picture from a photo album, now I'm just curious to find out what were those headphone. This was 30 years ago...   Thanks

    New amp for my 650

    I already have a Sansui AU-517 (1977), yes it can drive the 650 extremely well, but I don't like the sound, missing some details compared to the iBasso D10. One more thing it's huge, this new rig will be installed at the office on my desk...   Gonna read some more on the 160DS

    New amp for my 650

    OK I said 500$, but it can be more if justified.   The HRT seems nice, but i still feel my D10 could do the job with Valhalla, if not I can later upgrade.   As for the 160DS it look amazing, but a few people here seem to have problems with them and being up North I have a feeling that...

    New amp for my 650

    interesting, I would have prefer a all-in-one but something this sexy can make me change my mind.   Now,how the dac compare on both the ibasso D10 and the Music streamer? Also I've never listen to tube before, lots of love/hate on this subject...

    New amp for my 650

    I don't have a pre establish budget but let say 500$ since it's to match a pair of 500$ cans... Also i'm looking for a all in one unit amp,dac,usb and even if possible the AC to DC powersupply.

    New amp for my 650

    ALERT!   Ok i've just got myself some HD650 (upgraded from HD570) and wow, but now i have a feeling my iBasso D10 is not doing them justice... So i'm now looking for a desktop amp with a USB DAC. I'm about to pull the trigger on the NuForce Icon HDP and wanted your input on this combo before...
