    The Qudelix-5K thread

    Sorry, answered my own question. Just by coincidence, I was looking at the app without the 5K on. I just now turned it on, then looked at the app, and all is normal again. I can't believe I've never tried that before. [Standing in corner with dunce cap on head] Thanks.

    The Qudelix-5K thread

    Hey all. I hope somebody sees trhis aas the thread is pretty old. I've had my Quedellix 5K for quite some time, and had entered custom PEQ settings for my headphones/iems. I just used it last night, to be honest. Now, today, the interface of the android app looks different to me. I am not...

    Review by 'PittViper' on item 'Topping TP30 Class T Digital Mini Amplifier with USB-DAC 15 WPC'

    I own one of the TP-30 amp/dacs.  I originally purchased it to power a pair of dayton b652 bookshelf speakers.  Well, the speakers did not sound good to me, so I purchased a pair of Pioneer BS22 lr bookshelf speakers.  Now, I think they sound much better.  But, the TP30 was not as powerful as I...

    Review: Fiio E7

    HeadRushFan, I have this amp on order and will be using it with Sony V6, Grado SR-90, Koss PortaPro and Shure SE530. Explain to me what about the 530 was not impressive. The phones are impressive anyway by themselves. Did the E7 degrade the sound? Thanks, Viper

    Need help with Shure SE530's

    Taikero, thanks for the info. I used a flashlight and looked into the nozzle with a bright flashlight. There was a big white ball in the nozzle. I scooped it out with the cleaning tool, and now all is ok. Can that cleaning tool reach deep enough in the nozzle to damage the phones. You...

    Need help with Shure SE530's

    Last night I fell asleep on my left side of my head and when I awoke, there was no sound out out of the left earpiece. So, I figured wax, and used the cleaner tool to clean it. The sound came back, but it is not nearly as loud as the right ear. Could the wax be so far down in there that it is...

    Denon 551's and comply foams

    Something terrible happened to me yesterday, and I was wondering if it has ever happened to anyone else and how you prevented it. I was staying at a friends house overnight, and I always take my Denon's and not my se530's. Well, I fell asleep with the earphones on, and in the morning, the...

    Shure se530's: first impressions

    I am trying to remove the black foams that came on the shures, and you are right, they are ON there. I am trying the right ear, and I just can't get it off. I virtually destroyed the foam insert, and if the grey silicon works that will not be a problem. How do I get this thing off? I tried to...

    Shure se530's: first impressions

    for the past 1/2 hour, I have been listening to them both with cd's on a sony d-nf340 as the source, and also listening to mp3's on my laptop using winamp. I am using the total airhead amp. Here is what I can see so far. The sound is much smoother than my denon ac551's, and the bass is...

    Mini to mini extension cable

    Here's another question. I am almost set on the Grado extension cable, but it has 1/4 male/female ends. Headphone.com sales mini to 1/4 adapters I would need, and they are 5.00 a piece, and I was wondering if the adapters would be a "weak link in the chain" and degrade the sound quality. I...

    Comply replacement foams.

    I am pretty sure I have a good seal. I am listening right now, and there is no way I could get these things any tighter. I also think it depends on the source and its quality. When I made the first post, I was listening to a 128 bit mp3. At this moment, I am listening to a 320 bit mp3, and...
