Thoughts on a bunch of DACs (and why delta-sigma kinda sucks, just to get you to think about stuff)
would one recommend the NAD M51 (used) or Schiit Audio Gungnir DAC (new) if i could get the at the same price.- molika

Review: Violectric HPA V200 amp
hi, how is the pre-amp on the v200. im thinking of picking up one to drive my lcd x but also want to connect to my active speakers. the speakers are on the bright side, would they benefit from the v200. i do like a bit of warmth to my music. my dac is the chord hugo. cheers- molika

Earsonics SM64: The Impressions Thread
i don't think you would find any consensus, we all hear differently so what may be a good tip for me may not necessarily be for others. i liked the comfort, sound, isolation and durability of the olives. for a better soundstage you would find the silicon ones better though.- molika

Earsonics SM64: The Impressions Thread
wo I would say no, the top end is very good anyway. have a listen first and if anything roll some tips first. the phonak are good as mentioned above, the westone stars or the shure olives.- molika

Earsonics SM64: The Impressions Thread
the quality is top notch. i got them done at inearz but there's others that do them as well. to me no difference to sound quality. i got my impressions done at a highly recommended audiologist who knew what he was doing cause the fit is perfect. the isolation is obviously better. i wouldn't...- molika

Earsonics SM64: The Impressions Thread
the left earpiece broke and was to much to send to get repaired, was cheaper to re-shell. i could still use with a bit of tape to hold in place so considering i was going to get them re-shelled i thought i'll check out how they sound without the filters. this is the look of my re-shelled sm64s...- molika

Earsonics SM64: The Impressions Thread
while sm64 are not better then my much more expressive tg334, they beat my w40 that are in the same price range. i did remove the filters but didn't make much of a difference to me. i had the luxury of playing around with them after my left earpiece broke and i was getting them re-shelled...- molika
