    Has anyone compared the PS Audio Duet to the P300?

    I'm thinking about picking up one of the new Duets, but I've noticed the P300's available on the used market as well... I've read some tangential comments about the new line of products being superior to the old lineup, but has anyone compared these two? I would think a regenerator would...

    Amp upgrade path for HD-650 - what next after MicroAmp?

    Hi all, I guess I'm looking for some general advice on possible amp upgrade paths. Right now I'm using the Headroom microstack, which I really enjoy, but I suppose that I'm looking to explore a bit beyond this in terms of amplification. In particular, I'd really like to try a tube amp. For...

    Using my MicroAmp as a preamp?

    Hey guys, I've just tried using my Headroom MicroAmp as a preamp for my active (i.e. that have their own amps inside) studio monitors. It seems to impart a nice smooth, warm and creamy sound signature that I don't get from the monitors if I feed them straight from my MicroDAC (sounds more...

    'Slowness' of HD-650 - my imagination?

    I've noticed something a bit annoying lately. I produce music (recreationally) on my computer and use my HD-650's for monitoring. I find that I often feel the drums / bass are lagging a bit behind the other instruments, or that the tempo feels too slow. Then, when I listen through my speaker...

    Anyone like New Model Army?

    I just picked up their latest CD (Sept 2005), 'Carnival' and I'm hooked, playing it on repeat. This is my 10th album of theirs (not all by a long shot). I've loved them since a friend introduced me to 'No Rest for the Wicked' many years ago. Although they're popular in the UK, I feel like no...

    Bad for headphones to play poor quality / clipped audio files?

    Hey all, Now I have a harddrive packed w/ lossless files, but sometimes I want to listen to, for example, live DJ sets recorded so-so. In particular, some dnb sets I have sound like they were very loud when recorded, i.e. too much for the recorder to handle. They sound basically clipped, if...

    Exam time stress - any tips?

    Background... I'm a professional student (law), this is my 7th year of school. I used to be seriously easy-going, never worried about much, was ultra-confident, etc... in short, stress was not an issue, particulary during my undergrad. I had total confidence that I would prevail with stellar...

    Etymotic Large Yellow Eartips

    Just a quick note... I got etymotic to send me a sample package of their large yellow foamy eartips for use with my ER-4S. I'm really impressed with them, as compared to the black foamies. The main advantage is that I only have to insert them a shallow distance into my ear canal for a *very*...

    Idea: DIY high quality Ipod line-out

    So I thought I'd voice a random thought I had in the shower this morning (where I do most of my creative thinking - go figure)... It seems that most everyone using their ipods with a nice headphone/amp combo use the Sik Din line-out (or the Pocketdock, but that apparently has quality problems...

    ER-4 + iPoD = I'm in LOVE!!!!

    Holy cow.... I've been lurking the forums for a while, listening to SR-80s for about 2 years. Santa just brought me a pair of ER-4P's with the P->S conversion cable, as well as a 40G ipod. I've just set them up and started listening to ALAC files. All I can say is holy crap; I can...
