    Samsung galaxy nexus

    Anybody figured out the headphone amp output impedance on the Galaxy Nexus? That seems far  more important than the DAC particularly for balanced armature drivers.

    DAC/Amp that would sound great with my hd650s, at or under $300

    The Dac1 is a Dac + preamp + dual output (not balanced, two individual outputs) headphone amp. The headphone amp section was voiced for the 650. If you can track down the Stereophile review of the Dac1 I believe Atkinson performed it and mentioned listening to it specifically with the 650.

    Okay, I haven't posted here in years but I have been browsing since I just made my first headphone purchase in quite a while.   I have 650s and a Benchmark Dac1, first generation, bought in 2003ish. I couldn't be happier. It looks like you can score a Dac1 close to your budget, used but it...

    Anybody else interested in math?

    I'll graduate next spring with a BS (math and economics). The bulk of my upper level background is in mathematical statistics and much of what I am taking next year is applied statistics (in the statistics and economics [econometrics] departments).

    Audio equip cost to music collection value ratio

    It is about 1.5:1 at this point, it was closer to 1:1 before I sold my portable rig. Other than buying another portable rig and maybe a pair of SA5ks and/or HD650s in the future I don't see investing much in equipment any time soon, the music will continue to grow, I but about 4-5 titles a month.
