I'll be visiting NYC next month and would appreciate any info on where I can try out High End iem's.

I've been using the note 3 with kitkat and viper4android with my um merlins for a few weeks now and I can't remember enjoying my music so much for a very long time. With uncompressed or Hi res sources-well recorded of course, I'd take a well mastered mp3 over a poor 24/192 any day. I've owned...

I'm new to tubes and have read that Mullard ecc35's are the best available. Is Adzam the same tube? What would you pay for it. My tube amp is an LD VI +. Would such an expensive tube be overkill for this amp. Any advice appreciated.

Bought one to use with usb out of my iPad camera connection kit. When I tried it the Ipad's usb bus couldn't power the dac. I knew this might happen but I wasn't too worried as PD offers a 30 day money back guarantee. Only problem is they have so far ( about 2 weeks) been unwilling to give me an...

I recently ordered an HM 801 from Head Direct and the following day ordered a balanced amp card. The tracking number I was provided for the HM 801 showed that it had been delivered and signed for by someone in China. I live in South Africa. The "balanced amp card" has just been delivered and...

I bought an X5 a few months ago and loved just about everything about it immediately-sound, build quality, even UI and I have recommended it often on this and other forums. However, 2 weeks ago it just stopped working, completely dead absolutely no sign of life at all. I tried contacting Cowon...

Any suggestions? I was hoping I could wait until the sq reviews are out, but my parents are leaving for New York in a few hours and the prices are so much better there than where I live. I don't think I need it but it's hard to pass up a chance like this.

Go to http://www.fixup.net/products/index.htm I just ordered the Supermacro upgrade-I see it's now V 6- and also the supermicro which looks really cute. Had to restrain myself on the supermini, specially with the great introductory price.

I have a home network with a Mac G5 OS X Tiger and Windows machines running XP. I want to set up one of my machines to listen to music through a microdac into a preamp and amp etc..With the Mac I have the choice of optical or usb out, or usb from the PC's. Is there any advantage to Mac over...

Here's the link http://download.iaudio.com:8033/data/C0 ... _Beta1.zip Don't get too excited- doesn't seem to have major new features.

Any suggestions on which DAP has the best DSP-and also has a lineout facility. I know many or most -I hope not all audiophiles-hate that kind of addition to the music but I just happen to like the SRS wow on my HP140 and I was wondering how that stacked up against other DAPs with similar DSP...
