    V-MODA M-80 Review

    Bought these sound unheard from an Amazon vendor for $180.00 on the strength of reviews by evaluators I've come to trust. They do require breaking in as do all headphones/loudspeakers, etc. before they begin to sing. I'm more than satisfied with the sound quality not to mention the solid build...

    iPhone 5 (and new Touch) has totally new dock connector - 'Lightning' - adapters available but no line-out

    Review by 'mrpetemd' on item 'Koss PortaPro - Headphones ( semi-open )'

    Recommendations for a New High Quality Portable player?

    I'm looking for the same thing but it must play FLAC files. Except for the Sansa Clip+, which I have and the low end HiFiMan I haven't found anything.

    Best Amp/DAC combo unit for under $400

    Just got the Nu Force Icon Mobile. Not burned in yet but much better than my Headroom Total Bithead. Much quieter, more detailed sound (not harsh or edgy). deeper, wider soundstage than my old Creative Soundblaster Audigy 2S laptop card. Noise floor apparently much lower than previous options...
