    FLAC Despacito Remix (Feat. Justin Beiber)

    Does anyone have an inkling of an idea where I can find a FLAC/ALAC of Despacito remix feat. J Beiber. I'm surprised for a song this popular that I'm having such a hard time finding a file.

    AK SP1000 vs. AK380 ?

    Howdy, I was trying to decide between the Chord Mojo and iDSD. Then I gave up. Since receiving the dazzling new black iPhone 7, I've been nothing but impressed by the battery drain. Now I'm wrestling logic (price) and shiny metal (seriously, its a pretty block of metal). Technically...

    It appears I can't buy any music I enjoy from HD Tracks and other sites because of regional licensing issues. Does anyone know of a source where, from Australia, I can download FLAC/DSD/WAV etc. ? e.g. Example of what I cannot download...

    Pre 2000's Tunnel Trance Force in DSD/FLAC/WAV 192/24+?

    I'm betting someone here knows where I can find the older TTF music in high quality via download?    Sadly threw out many of my CD's years ago, kept my favourites, but there's only so many times I can use loop, :(

    Campfire Audio Jupiter needs a DAP recommendation

    Hey,    I just picked up the ALO/Campfire Audio Jupiters, and am looking to pickup a DAP to go with them - the iPhone dumps static/hums.   I love the AK Jr, however, the interface feels a little unrefined for such a premium product. The Mojo is a no-go, as is the PAW, Pono and the Fiio (all...

    HD800 Challenge to IEMs

    Thats right... I can't live without the massive sound stage... what sort of IEM dares compete? Musicality, nothing recessed, if anything, a slight bass boost, but I think that comes with the IEM territory anyway.    Thoughts?   1. Roxanne JH Audio IEM 2. Tralucent 1plus2 (can you even buy...

    Astell & Kern right for me?

    Can you pair the Astell & Kern 120II/240 and get good quality audio with the top-tier headphones? i.e. Audeze 2/3, HD800, PS1000, etc.    I need a reasonably portable solution; is it worth it, or is it just a bad solution in general?

    Need some advice - Dolby DTS Decoder box?

    I'm looking to either buy, or build (or get built) a Dolby DTS Decoder at the size of the FIIO Alpen.    It would have HDMI & Optical as Inputs, with a Headphone Jack as the only Output.    The box would have volume control as mandatory, all other things secondary, if any.    An example of...

    JOHN BUTLER TRIO OCEAN - WHICH PHONE DOES IT RIGHT!?

    B&O 'WiSA' Speaker thoughts?

    I've tried doing a search but I have come up with nothing, neither on this site or others.   I love B&O as much for their design as their sound. I know everyone will have their opinions, but I really want to know from those who made the step to wireless - how'd it go? Do you notice any...

    HD800 vs. Unique Melody Aero Custom IEM

    Yeah, pretty dumb question I agree.    I had a car accident 6 weeks ago, car was written off - it was 80km/hr hit with two semi-trailer trucks and a fuel tank.    Nobody can find my B&O in-ear headphones that I've had for about 8-10 years and my K701 was damaged. I can only assume the B&O's...

    Sennheiser HD800 Queries

    Hi all!   Everyone's familiar with the HD800 so I don't need to give it an intro.   I want to upgrade from the K701's - I made a thread about it a fair while ago and it was an argument between the K1000 and the HD800. In the end I had a bad experience with the K1000 seller and kind of...

    Re-cabling Headphones - What's the deal?

    Hey everyone,   I know that an upgraded cable can lower distortion and increase clarity, as well as prevent external interference with the signal.. BUT, does re-cabling a stock K701, T1, HD800, etc. make THAT big a difference?

    Why are electrostatic headphones so 'good'?

    I know relatively nothing about these headphones, infact I've only seen reference to them when reading about voltages on amps for driving headphones and the odd reference to the ability to power an electrostatic headphone..   In short.. how good can these cans be?? What makes them so 'good'?
