My Denon Ah-d1100 are broken... What are the options?
Quote: http://www.btg-audio.com/ does cheap recables. Brian will probably give you a discount if you just want to re-terminate the cable. That's my recommendation, I had a good experience with them. I don't know anything about Denon's repair/warranty policies.- mechtech

The Schiit SACD/DSD Research Thread--Your Chance to Win a Bifrost!

Little Dot Mk lll
What you're looking for is a line out signal. The way to get this from an iphone is through the dock port through either a dock -> line out cable or a docking station that has a line-out output. Apparently iPhone compatibility is very finicky, so make sure and get something that indeed works...- mechtech

The Denon D1001s and the AT AD-700s are both great cans. The D1001s have mroe punchy bass and a smaller sounstage, and they are slightly more comfortable, while the AD-700s will have a more open and larger soundstage.- mechtech

pencil fi?
I'm a staunch supporter of Mirado Black Warrior pencils. Granted, I prefer to use a pen, but c'mon, how can you NOT use a pencil named the Mirado Black Warrior?!- mechtech
