    What's the best sounding DAP on the market ????

    Quote:   I went from a clip+ to an S:flo2 and even after 3 years I am still amazed by how wholesomely good it is. In that time I have tried a Cowon and various ipods and they just dont come close. The headphone out is 90% (and wipes the floor with anything I have used previously) there...

    My sons first encounter with earbuds - i'm a proud dad!

    Quote: Thanks! It was a nice surprise for us actually. The good old Canon 550d (or t2i in the states) with an EF50 1.8 ii lens (which can be bought for less than 100 bucks nowadays). Didnt realise when we bought that it was capable of such high quality full HD video and well within our...

    Matrix M-Stage amp review: simple, cheap, and excellent.

    Quote: The HRT I dont know sorry but if you do opt for the NFB-3 I can HIGHLY recommend a pair of AD797BRZ (on a Brown Dog adapter) for the M-Stage. I ran the full gamut of opamps for the Matrix out of an NFB-3 until the AD797BRZ and it was a "BAM - thats the one!" moment.

    Review: 1964EARS 1964-T

      My impressions started their journey today! I will be using with a D10 also - have you experimented with op-amp combinations with the Ts? If so is there a stand-out to report back on? Im still pretty much stuck fast on Rons topkit.

    android vs. iphone for sound quailty?

    I didnt read throught the entire thread history but for what its worth the HTC Desire sound quality was very average. My previous phone was a blackberry which had excellent sound and by comparison the Desire was noisy with tons of interference (via Sleek SA6). My base-line quality wise is a...

    Songs that make your headphone WOOOOOW!!!

    Here's a recent find that I really enjoy. The Minecraft Alpha OST. Lush, all electronic but really thickly layered and sparse ambient music. http://c418.bandcamp.com/album/minecraft-volume-alpha

    Some cable measurments

    Ah you are now at the opposite end of the game. Just as there are multi thousand dollar D/A converters discussed on this site, so too are A/D converters. Its been a long while since I was in the business of recommending an A/D to anyone. Head over to gearslutz and see what the FOTM is there...

    Can I ask which A/D converter you used to record the sound back to your PC?

    Non-audiophile reactions to high-end headphones

    At my office desk I have an NFB-3 > M-Stage (TLE2141 class A *win*) and K702 with some of the "Friend or Foe" cloth mods. I get alot of weird looks since the NFB is huge and the M-Stage is a weird shape in its own right. My response is to queue up my all-purpose demo track Alpha Centauri by...

    Matrix M-Stage amp review: simple, cheap, and excellent.

    My NFB-3 arrived today so naturally I played around with my office desktop setup instead of actually working. I have the NFB-3 feeding the m-stage to K702's. The stock Matrix opamp is OK and the OPA627AU class A mod from coolfungadget sounded pretty nice but not perfect. I then gave the 2...

    Songs that make your headphone WOOOOOW!!!

      Two Fingers featuring Sway - What You Know http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ut28nSqrTyk   Interesting song - uses a lot of "falling bullet casing" style foley and sounds really tactile thru the K702s!

    Just ordered the Matrix M Stage

    I have a similar setup to you (iBasso D10 with topkit and K702).  I actually ordered my amp with the OPA627 class-a mod installed which a bit of a mistake in hindsight.  With the D10 the results were very shrill even after a few hundred hours burn time on the amp.  I was considering ditching the...

    S:flo2 impressions thread

    Quote: I dunno about that.  I have a D10 with the "final" Hiflight topkit connected to sflo2 via LO and its incredible.  I much prefer it to the D10s internal DAC as insane as that might sound.  Not sure how to put it into words either and it seems to work for all music styles.  Extremely...

    Treo 800w phone USB host connection to DAC - anyone tried?

    OK this is doing my nut in.  Reading about OTG, USB host mode and what-not.  I would have though any mobile device that you could plug directly into a USB DAC would be the shiz but im having trouble finding info.   Can anyone shed some light on this?  Which devices do really support this kind...

    Yeah?  I had a hunch there might be a snag or two.  More chipset investigation is required :)

    Treo 800w phone USB host connection to DAC - anyone tried?

    I was scouting around for portable digital sources for my D10 and I saw this thread and a few others like it.  The gist was the Treo 800w works as a USB host device with a cable hack and connects to devices that use generic drivers (USB keys, keyboards and from what I can tell USB sound...

    About to jump into the portable DAC world - looking for critical opinions on amp choice

    I have a Sansa Clip+ which I am quite impressed with.  Its paired with SA6 IEMs which I love for many reasons.  One being when I listen to music its through studio monitors which is a sound I am accustomed to and I love how the SA6 is accurate and flat and still manages to be musical and...
