Looking for something to match the once great V Moda M100
So I currently have a pair of Philips Fidelio x2 which I've had for about 5+ years now and they're a great pair of cans but recently I got the itch for something with a bit more excitement kind of like the V Moda M100's which I owned for a while before selling, I currently have my eyes on...- NewSound86

Upgrading from the Fiio E07K what are my options?
I'm looking for another dac/amp combo like my current E07Kwhich I do still enjoy a lot but something that can offer maybe a better amp in the combo? I would prefer the sound to remain warm and powerful (as some have described the E07K as being) budget wise i'm looking at spending around...- NewSound86

The Audioquest Dragon Fly or the CambridgeDacmagic XS, now before I go further just want to say any of these will be for use with my V-Moda M100's and while i'm happy with the E07K i've been thinking about changing it up for a while now and a friend can get me big discount on either of the two...- NewSound86

Amping the V-Moda M-100
If you want an amp (no dac) the answer is always going to be E11 a fantastic amp for the price especially with it's bass boost options (not that you'll need them but who knows) I used to have one and it never let me down once, and it's not bulky. If you want sizable improvement then i'd say get...- NewSound86

Suggestion for alternate setup/amp for use with M100's
So it's been a while since I last posted on here and the main reason has been the arrival of my V-Moda M-100's which really concluded my search for the perfect set of headphones (for me) and at the time which was 6-8 months ago my primary music listening device was my Dell Laptop for which I...- NewSound86

So my Digizoid ZO2 arrived today and it finally made me realise the bass on the M-100's is perfect as it is and I don't need any synthetic or emphasised bass from an amp (outside that which is apparent within the natural sound of an amp) so after a few hours of testing it out i've stuck it back...- NewSound86

V Moda M100 vs ATH M50
Depends what you want from your headphone and what you'll be listening to but for me the M-100 slays the ATH M-50 which has to be the single most overhyped headphone i've come across (although that doesn't affect the quality of the headphone itself)- NewSound86
