    Westone 3 Limited Edition?

    Does anybody know anything about the W3LE IEMs? I have not found any definitive reviews about them. On their website, they claim that the components are hand picked, does that mean that they are just very balanced W3s? Or do they actually use different, higher end, components?

    JH10x3 vs JH13

    So I am looking to sell off my current IEMs and pick up a set of customs. After a bit of research, JH Audio seems to have really stood out of the bunch. Right now I am pretty torn between their two IEMs, the JH10x3 and JH13. After a lot of listening experience, I have found that I do enjoy a...

    TripleFi 10 fit -- I think I found the solution

    So a lot of people complain about the TripleFi 10 fit, and I was one of those people until about an hour ago. I had major issues of the silicone tip feeling like it was just not in my ear properly, it would always be loose and falling out, and if I pushed it in further, sound would distort and...

    IEM for iPhone help

    So I hate these threads just as much as the next guy, but I have been doing a lot of research, and have not found too much of direct comparisons between IEMs. I am looking to get an IEM which will be driven directly from my iPhone 3G, mainly to listen to rock and rap. I am looking to spend about...

    Ultrasone HFI-780 recable, ALO vs Moon Audio

    I am interested in getting an Ultrasone HFI-780 and doing a recable. The reviews are very appealing to me. However, I am pretty confused as to the difference between the different recables. I have narrowed it down to ALO or Moon Audio, but after a bit more looking, I see that the ALO has an all...

    Mini3 perfromance confusion, worth upgrading? (mini review inside)

    So I am a little confused about the performance of my Mini3 amp. It was built by MisterX, and it is obvious that the quality is great. However, I am a little confused about its performance compared to the internal amplifier of the iPhone 3G. I have listened to it extensively through the...

    Help me with an amp, $400-550

    So I am looking to get a better desktop amp. I am looking to spend around $400-550, new or used. I am also not looking for an amp with a built in DAC. My source will generally be my iMac or my Rega Planar 3. My two headphones I will be using with it are the Grado SR325i Audio Technica...

    Phono Pre-amp for Rega

    I have a Rega Planar 3 table, running the stock RB300 with a Rega Super Bias cart. I am running it into a Pro-Ject Phono Box II. My issue is, the RB300 is grounded though one of the interconnects, rather than a normal ground wire. The Phono Box II only has a normal ground, and does not ground...

    Vinyl, isn't it kinda silly?

    So, let me start off, I am a vinyl fan (see sig). However, quite often I do find myself chuckling at the fact that many of us spend thousands of dollars on our rigs to get that really perfect sound. Then, at the same time, we are also the people fumbling through the $5 used record bins with joy...

    Rega P3 ...grounding?!

    So I just got my new Rega P3, and was very very excited to hook it up and get some tunes going on. To my surprise, there is no ground cable. There seems to be not as much static as my old table ungrounded, but there is still more static than it grounded. I am not really sure what to do at this...

    W5000 recable, Moon Audio

    I am looking to racable my W5000's, not really for sound, but just for usability purposes. The cable is way too long for my use, and I hate having zip-ties all over the place. I am looking at Moon Audio's cables, either the Silver Dragon or the Blue Dragon. My first question is, I see that...

    LP quality: old vs. new

    So I have been getting into the whole vinyl scene these days. I am enjoying it a lot, but there is something that is confusing the hell out of me. It seems that the older recordings are significantly higher in quality than the newer ones. Mainly, it seems that the new recordings are extremely...

    Worth it to upgrade cables?

    So right now I am looking at upgrading my cables to my entire setup. I am getting a new table (Rega P3), and a new set of cans (ATH-W5000), but I am not planning to get a new amp, because I do like the sound of my Head-Direct EF1. So the question is, is getting new cables really worth it...

    Closed Headphone with Grado Sound?

    I really love the sound of Grados, particularly the detail, forwardness, and excitement that the 325i's present. I understand that no two headphones will sound the same, but does anybody have a suggestion towards a good closed can that can deliver a similar sound? I am not too worried about...

    Mini^3 partial DIY build

    I am looking to do a partial Mini^3 DIY build. I do not want to have the hassle of actually assembling the entire board, but there are some components that I do need to attach myself. Does anybody know a seller/builder who sells partially constructed Mini^3's? A lot of sellers off the forum...

    Does anybody have a broken amp?

    I am wondering if anybody has a broken portable amp that they want to get rid of. I would be willing to pay a few bucks for one. I am not looking to fix it up, so any level of damage is pretty much acceptable. I am looking to tear it apart to find the physical measurements of the internals...

    Head-Direct EF1 + sr325i & MS2i

    Right now I am looking to upgrade from my Creek OBH-11 to something a little better. Right now, the Head-Direct EF1 looks pretty appealing, and for the $299 sale price tag, I am pretty tempted. So, my question is, will this amp do well with the sr325i's and the MS2i's? Also, what kind of...

    New to tube amps!

    So I am really new to tube amps. I read the sticky about them here, and I kind of understand how the work. However, I am now stuck in the "where now?" position. I am looking for something that I do not really have to mess with. I would be very happy with something that would work and sound...

    Amp for iPhone and maybe computer

    Hey guys, first post here. I am pretty much a noob in this whole hi-fi audio territory. I recently just bought a set of SR225's and I am really happy with them (however, unfortunately everything else sound terrible to me now). Right now I am usually connecting to them either a iMac, MacBook Pro...
