I just got mine today and I've been listening to it, but I noticed that the impedance switch on the back doesn't seem to increase or decrease the volume as expected, at least nothing like how the Pico Headamp's impedance switch does. Anyone else experience the same thing?

So the PS500 is significantly heavier than the RS1i?

Hey guys, I'm scheduled for Lasik surgery, which means I'm getting back into the headphone world. I used to own a pair of RS1i's which I loved, but due to the pressure, my ears pressed against the legs of my glasses and I couldn't listen to them for more than 30 minutes without experiencing...

Just like the US, there are good products and bad products. China has traditionally been known for bad products because that's all that was being exported to the US, but now we're starting to see an influx of the good products.

Just wanted to chime in here. I was originally interested in the Nuforce uDAC-2 based on the positive responses of other members here who have used it. However, coming across nwavguy's measurements gave me pause. I was still interested in this DAC, however, up until the point where I saw...

Yeah, it's weird actually. A few people told me that they could make it when I sent out the round of PM's, but then disappeared. Then out of the few that could make it and were responsive, about half told me they couldn't make it. In the end, it seemed better to plan it for another time. Perhaps...

I've had multiple people tell me they couldn't make it this Saturday, so I've decided to cancel the meet. Maybe we can do it during summer vacation instead.

Any more people? I'm trying to get a headcount and so far it doesn't look good.

Seeing as how the meet is 2 weeks away, I'd like to finalize things. It'll be held on March 21, a Saturday, from 1 PM until 5 PM, unless anyone has any overriding reason to change the date. It's a good time because the following week is Spring Break for UH students. If someone could bring a...

Well March 21 is the tentative date. I'm simply setting a date so we can get an idea of when it will be and we can work around it if some people can't make it.

Hello everyone, there was a dicussion about a Head-Fi meet in Honolulu a while back that didn't go through. I was one of the people who offered up my house as a possible meeting place but it fell through because it was still under renovation. Well, now that place is complete and ready to go, so...

Wow, 3-4 months? That's pretty nuts, good thing I have the SR-225's to tide me over. I haven't bothered to contact Grado Labs yet because I wouldn't know what to say. "Hi, I have a pair of headphones that I sent in for repair, I have no RMA number and no tracking number, just my address, can you...

Thanks for the response. It's coming up on 3 weeks now but I'll be a little more patient since Grado Labs is in New York and I'm in Hawaii. You have a nice avatar too!
