Pick your answer. :)

Just out of curiosity; why is it - or why is it not - that 110V and 220V affects the SQ in a head-fi rig (DAC / amp)?   E.g. would a Schiitrig sound (excactly) the same if you used in US or Sweden?

Based on extrapolation of the segment the previous and recent years; what's your take regarding the head-fi segment in 2013? What do you miss today that you want to be available in 2013?   General: - There are several things for me, but key is that I want several manufacturers to start...

Since the Audeze headphones entail both wood and leather, I would anticipate a certain preventive maintenance scheme would be prudent to follow. I "take them apart" every 2-3 months to get them soaked in oil and apply leather care. Keeps them fresh, and I would think the oil PM decreases the...

I have the Lake People G100:         I want to put it in a wooden enclosure like this (inspiration):     Any piece of advice from the DIY-experts? The less fuzz - the better. Solutions are appreciated. :)  

These are som examples from a creation from the Norwegian AVForum.   The whole thread is here: http://avforum.no/forum/diy-do-yourself/119482-kokken-klasse-p-prosjekt-5ars-jubileum.html   Bonus: Please pay attention to the previous creations from the same user. The Tape Deck - FANTASTIC...

Many have asked the same question. Now, a published review of the these two headphones in a head-to-head review has been published by the magazine "Hjemmekino". As you might have guess right now, the review is not in English - but you figure it out. Google Translate, OCR tool import 'n'...

I have enjoyed many headphones during the past year, and do still, but you know the drill - upgrade to something even "better" (aka different). I have the LCD-2 rev 1, rev. 2, HE-500 and HE-6 and have fallen in love with the LCD-2 rev. 2 / HE-500.   If I would nitpick (which we all do), I...

So, what are the "do and don't" when arranging head-fi meets? What are the lowlights and highlights one should be prepared of?   Any piece of advice from the crowd on the forum are appreciated. :)

As we now know, the new protein leather ear pads from HiFiMAN are actually thinner than the velour pads. In order to get a good seal AND som distance between the ear and the planar driver, it therefore seems necessary to browse for a creative solution. Here´s a mission and I hope you can help...

  I've just bought the HE adapter and the OCC HE-6 cable, and plan to use it with the following two integrated stereo amps:   - Abrahamsen V2.0 - AB and class A for the "first watts" (1500VA, 70W on 8ohm and 140W on 4 ohm) - Primare I32 - Class D (Output Power: 2x 120W at 8Ω 2x 230W at...

There's a lot of reviews, impressions and elaborations on the forum, and that's the essential part of it. That's good.   However, head-fi is a hobby where we all want to keep our hearing ability intact, so I just pop the questions:   - When was the last time you took an audiometry? -...

As the heading implies.   http://www.sac-gmbh.de/sac/start_frame.php?Pfad=2_4_79&BL=4    

On the home page it is stated that: HE-Adapter is not for HE-500 or any high efficiency headphones.   http://www.head-direct.com/product_detail.php?p=104#   Why is that?   I´ve tried the HE-500 with a monster headamp in balanced mode, and they played the best.   Is there any...

Inspired by the LCD-2 thread concerning almost the same subject, I hope this thread could be used as a sharing experience arena for which DAC & amp you HE-500 owners use.   I received my HE-500 2 days ago and so far I have used them on the following of my amps:   a) Hegel HD10 +...

My initial impression so far in head-fi is that the perception of soundstage is very much dependent if the source / headamp combo portrays "cold / clinical", "neutral" and "warm / musical" tuning to the music.    E.g. a "cold / clinical" source / amp combo will be perceived by most users to...

  Disclaimer: This meeting is just for fun and not scientific.  

This tread is meant for Schiit Lyr users to share experiences regarding tube rolling on the amplifier in question. There are some experiences in other threads, but sparse postings makes it difficult to keep track on experiences and interpret a consensus of what kind of tubes make what kind of...
