CanJam SoCal 2021 (September 25-26, 2021)
Sorry for the noob questions, but: Are we expected to bring our own portable DAC, amp, and a DAP or phone with music on it? Or will every headphone already be paired with everything necessary to demo it? Basically, I'm wondering if I should be bringing anything other than my ticket and vaccine...- nway

Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread
Back up to $399 now. Ever since their sale for $315 on November 30th, they've consistently been floating in the upper $300 range. They've quite frequently dropped to around $365, and apparently even dropped to $349 two days ago. On a side note, I think you guys are judging SomeGuyDude's...- nway

FiiO Mont Blanc/E12 portable headphone amp, 880mW, slim design, full metal case. Bass boost and Cross feed!
Because it's $50 cheaper and the portability could come in handy, should I need it. I also use a laptop as my desktop computer. I guess I'm just a lunatic.- nway

Schiit Modi USB DAC
Thank you. Clearly I was imprecise with my words. I was really just referring to "the cable required to get the thing running". I added "power" mainly to differentiate it from the RCA cables, but yes, I suppose "USB cable" would have been the more technically correct term. But anyway...- nway

Schiit Modi USB DAC
Well, they're synonymous, insofar as the USB cable is required to power the device. The USB cable is needed to fire up the goods, so to speak.- nway

Schiit Modi USB DAC
The USB version. I presumed it would come with a cord connecting the Modi's USB port (a hexagonal shape) to the standard USB port on my computer.- nway

Schiit Modi USB DAC
Quick question: Is the Modi supposed to come with a power cord? I bought a used one from ebay, and it didn't come with a power cord. I'm not sure if this is how all new ones are sold or if the seller forgot to include the power cord.- nway

I ordered both the 990 and 770, but I ended up cancelling them because I've already got the HD600 coming in. The 990 would have cost $145 after the 17% discount and $35 rebate, and the 770 would have cost $137 after the 17% discount and $35 rebate. You can email this PDF form to them...- nway

You can actually email it to them. You have to fill out 12 boxes: • First Name * Last Name • Dealer Name • Address • City/State/Zip • Tel • Email • Date • Signature • Occupation • Model • Serial # ...which amounts to $2.91 per box.- nway
