    Lifespan of portable source gear

    I’m thinking of taking the leap into portable source gear. I have an LG G7 that I only use as a music player that’s given me a taste of the potential, and now I’m considering venturing into something higher end. What I’m thinking about is Lifespan. The majority of the listening I do would be...

    Any resale value to a 22 gauge ALO Cryo Dock (LOD) Jena?

    I bought one used as part of a package with a RSA Tomahawk, and had assumed I could get an adapter for it to work with the iphone 4, but sadly cannot.  It works great and sounds lovely with my ipod classic, but I mostly use my nano and iphone now, and it won't work with either.    Is there a...

    Tomahawk Failing - recos for similar to replace?

    Hi all. I've enjoyed my tomahawk, but find build quality a bit weak. Perfect size, and when working well it's great. Any recos for a similar sized device to replace with? Problems are battery connection contact lost intermittently, one of the jacks is now loose, and one of the screws fell off...

    Would a full size amp like an M^3 work with IEM

    Going to buy a monster IEM ... any risk of damaging with a desktop amp with low and high gain settings. The M^3 sounds great with my HD 650, but curious if it does anything for IEMs or if this is just a bad idea! I do have a portable rsa amp that will work fine - but just curious.

    Reshelling UE18 Pro - seeking info

    Hi all.  I took the plunge (I keep diving deeper and deeper) and bought a second hand pair of UE18's.   Once reshelled, will it be same listening experience as buying new?  Are some vendors better than others?  Any risk to damaging the IEMs?   I sent an email tonight to unique melody...

    Can headphones be too loud?

    My wife just came from the bedroom in the floor above to complain I am bothering her with my listening volume on my HD 650's. Anyone else get this ... I gave in and turned it down - she just might have a point if she can hear from upstairs ... But she might not!

    D2000's deliver

    Got the kids down and sat down to rest. Put some classic rock on the iPod, plugged in my amp, d2000's with j$ pads ... and am very impressed. Brings enjoyment back to old music - I hear things and detail in the music I never picked up before. Nice bonus is I think the phones are now broken in.
