Massdrop AKG K812 Giveaway! - COMPLETE!
Thanks Will! User Sparky14 Personally - I'd like to see a small Desktop DAC/headamp/speaker amp. You can find two of the three everywhere, but all 3 are rare. Generally - I'd like to see Massdrop venture into home audio components more often.- Sparky14

New M8 DAC from SMSL (9018/XMOS)
That is common for Massdrop though. If the first drop is successful, they can work a better deal from the supplier. Frustrating? Sure, but that is how group buys work.- Sparky14

Blown Onix Reference MKii speaker. What now?
Then I'd ask Danny Richie at http://gr-research.com/ or here http://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?board=16.0 He may have been involved in that design, and I suspect he would know a good replacement driver. -
Blown Onix Reference MKii speaker. What now?
How is it blown? If a driver is blown, there should be similar replacements available. I think Skiing Ninja used to do crossovers for the Ref mkii, you might look him up for advice. -

Quote: Well, I love that combo. I had the NFB-11, first with HD650 and then DT990s/600. I preferred the 990s, just seemed more alive. When the 11.32 arrived, the HE-400 came right after them. Compared to the DT990s, the had the same open alive sound, but a much better and more...- Sparky14

My Horrible Audio-GD Experience
This is a non-audio-gd warning to all......dealing with almost all Chinese manufacturers is a pain because of (1) time delay issues and (2) communication issues. If you are ordering from China, you'd better be prepared for anguish should you need service. That is the price you pay, for a cheaper...- Sparky14
