Best portable amp for FOSTEX th-x00
I couldn't justify spending $200 on a dac/amp combo for $400 headphones, so I took a shot in the dark and ordered an FX-AUDIO DAC-X6 from AliExpress for my x00's. Should be able to review them soon- tj28

FX-Audio DAC-X6 2016 Release; potential sub-$100 king?
No, unfortunately. I should mention that there is a headphone amplifier on this board as well, so at $58~$60 this is a steal. All of the other outputs are unamplified.- tj28

Fostex x Massdrop TH-X00 Review
I'm thinking bass-light with a big soundstage. Thanks for the HD 600 recommendations! K701's are getting super cheap ($130 on eBay) so I might grab one of those as that's an insane value. Quote: I'm kind of worried about this too. I would hate to buy another pair to only find...- tj28

What would be a good open headphone to complement these, sub-$300? I was thinking the K712.- tj28

FX-Audio DAC-X6 2016 Release; potential sub-$100 king?

Fostex x Massdrop TH-X00 Review
I would love to mod the Fostex logo to be gold instead of black, a la the Denon series. Would this be relatively easy to do?- tj28

Xiaomi Pistons 3.0 Impressions Thread
Burned them in for an hour with pink noise then used them for a few hours. My impressions: I don't own the Piston 2's so I can't directly compare, but these are NOT lacking in bass. This is coming from someone who listens almost exclusively to electronic music. The sub-bass is very strong...- tj28
