Hey guys! I have owned HD650s for quite some time and absolutely LOVE them. I use them with the Schiit Valhalla 2 and the Bifrost Uber. My question to you all: is it worth trying out a pair of AKG K701 with my setup as another "flavor" to add some variety? If not, what would be a good complement...

Thanks for the suggestions! I'll definitely check out the orange globes in addition to the smokies. Or should I get a "holy grail" tube for more cash than getting 2-4 cheaper tubes?    Any thoughts on the Aune X3 and what amp to power it? Or better off going with the T1 into an active speaker...

Hey guys, I just picked up a pair of HD650s and the T1 Mk2 =) Any thoughts on these tubes:   http://www.ebay.com/itm/GE-6DJ8-ECC88-SMOKIE-VACUUM-TUBE-1970s-SINGLE-FOIL-O-GTR-SUPER-SWEET-TONE-G18A-/321655861317?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4ae42ef045   Good deal? What kind of sound will...

Any thoughts on this combination?  I need to be able to record sound (guitar, vocals, lectures, skype), and have a DAC / amp. Will the Apogee be the "one" to do all of this well and pair nicely with the P5s? Wasn't quite sure where to post this as it's sort of an all-in-one rig.  The P5s are...

Great suggestions! Added "Benighted" by Opeth too, it's perfect!   I tried to find an Anton LaVey audiobook but haven't been able to so far ;-)  

Making a playlist. Not looking for anything too "heavy" (like Gorgoroth, Cannibal Corpse, etc). Although I like metal, the person I'm making the list for doesn't.     Radiohead - Everything in its Right Place Massive Attack - Heat Miser VNV Nation - Tempest Charles Manson - Ego...

Just realized I posted this in the wrong section. Oops!

I want to be able to lay down under the stars (with a girl) while we both enjoy some music out of some HD650s.   What portable amp will have enough power? Should I think about splitting the signal or are there portable amps with 2 outs?   Thanks!

TTT. You guys are not making it easy to come back to you!

I'm on the road to being a "professional" Foosball player. I know, totally random. Anyway, I play at the table for 6+ hours per day and need some music to keep me company. I will probably be listening to a lot of ambient music to help with concentration (think Aphex Twin). Based upon what I...

What about the Little Dot DAC1?

What would be the best DAC to put in this chain under $300 or so used? I'm assuming I'd need one that connects into a USB port, although, the new Macbook Pro has a Thunderbolt port. Would this be better? If so, are there any DACs with Thunderbolt support? It'd need to have stereo (L/R...

I would probably put it towards some B&W P5s, probably the best headphones they sell at the apple store.
