New Dragonfly Black and Red Discussion
A friend of mine has a dragonfly red but wants more output for his 600ohm cans. would it be ok for him to get a decent headphone amp and hook this up in-line with this dac? will there be any sound quality issues since he'll be technically double amping the signal? Thank you very much :)- TheTodd

iPhone 6s Sound Quality
I'm using my 6s Plus streaming via Spotify and i have the Onkyo HF Player. For my workplace setup i am using a Project Ember Amp with a 6DJ8 tube and my Fostex TH900 Headphones and i think it sounds wonderful. I have zero complaints, in fact i noticed the 6s knocked down the highs a tad(which...- TheTodd

The Hardest hitting Headphones are.. ( "The EXTREME BASS Club")
Ok this may have already been asked but hell there are 500+ pages lol. Other than the both Fostex, which Cans out of the top ten list have the best sound quality and soundstage???? I do like the V-Moda quite a bit but they have Zero soundstage and pretty heavy clamping force- TheTodd

I have the V-Moda M100's and I think they sound horrible and distorted with the XL pads. I thought my headphones broke, I had 4 others from work sample them too and they all thought the same thing so it wasn't my imagination (this was at very high volume levels mind you). When I threw the stocks...- TheTodd

Fostex TH900 Impressions & Discussion Thread
I am in the hunt for a semi portable version of the Fostex TH900's and the Oppo PM-3 just weren't it. The sound was still clean and crisp but it lacked LOWs pretty badly and didnt have much soundstage. Clamping force was pretty strong especially for a person who wears glasses. I wish there were...- TheTodd

I also may not even EQ it at all. The amp i will be using at my place of employment will be a Project Ember and i enjoy tube rolling with that amp, it really makes a noticeable difference. Ive got a good telefunken tube that really seems to bring out warmth and lows so i will be using that one i...- TheTodd

Thanks for that, i wont be cranking the bass up high or anything like that. i just may end up turning it up a notch or two. I have been looking on Oppo's site for Refurbished ones and one finally popped up today. Is it worth the $80 in savings by getting the Refurbs over brand new ones?- TheTodd

Oppo PM-3 : The Portable Planar - Impressions
I think ive decided to go with the PM-3's and ill EQ the low end frequencies. Im more of a Modiophile thats why im EQ'ing. I know alot of people including myself that EQ the hell out of their TH900's :) with that being said Audio Technica did just come out with their A1000Z's and other reviews...- TheTodd

Not in transit portability. Just kind of moving around like you said. I was also considering the Yamaha Pro Series too. I will check out the MT220 as well :-) thanks for the suggestion. Thank you both for a quick response.- TheTodd
