Hello everyone,   I am new to this sub-section of the Head-fi forums but I hope I am not pissing anyone off by starting a help thread.   I am revising my setup a little and while I love my external DAC for serious listening, I just want a sound card to use with a small mizer I have to take...

I was looking for a desktop balanced headphone amplifier that would not cross or be near the $600 range. I saw a few after market ones but would like to try and compile a more concise list of the currently available units that have a low MSRP.    Anyone got any recommendations? Is my budget...

So I have not found a definitive answer. The Multi-Bit upgrade to the Gungnir is just an upgrade, but the Yggy was designed to have little to nothing after the DAC outputs, so I wondered, does the Gungnir capture some of the same magic as the Yggy? I want to know what the comparison is, I...

Hello everyone,   I see mods are done to the 1R and people seem to have opened the 1A as well, but no mentions of the pin layout of the TRRS plug used for these headphones. I would like to create a balanced cable to use with my AK120ii. Can anyone help me out with that? It's quite expensive to...

Hey guys,   I was planning to spend some money and i have it within my grasps to get either of the two listed players. My problem is I want to figure out which is best for me, and not just which on paper seems the best.   I see in the specifications that the AK120ii has DualDAC's and only...

Hi guys,   I was wondering about this burnin cable that apparently comes with the DX90. From all accounts, burn in should be with a device at load, so what is inside that cable to make it like that? I want to make my own as I plan to get the AK120ii and get a few new cables for my CIEMs...

No help needed

NEW UPDATE (09-21-2015): I took my spreadsheet I made when creating this thread and made it live for you folks to use. I have also added a form and a new worksheet to the spreadsheet for you to add new cables to a somewhat similar spreadsheet.     ...

So I have a small issue. I have seem to have caught the audio bug. It's where you keep wanting better and better gear for yourself to enjoy. That out of the way, I have come to want more out of my current portable amp (the Pico Slim).   I have Aurisonics AS-2's: Specs: * 8Hz - 25kHz...

I was looking through the "pictures of your portable rig" thread and realized tons of people have different ideas for their portable rig. I was wondering what everyones was if they had no worry in terms of pricing. I am curious to hear what people would consider the best and what they would want...

Preface: Review not formatted for Head-fi, sorry for any weird formatting   Introduction A few months ago I decided to get myself a pair of Custom In-Ear Monitors. I decided to buy the AS-1's as I liked the ideas behind them very much, but Dale Lott of Aurisonics surprised me and gave me a...

I have a bunch of mp3HD files from Bassnectar and While I love the idea, I cannot use them on a mobile device. Anyone know a computer program, preferably for Mac OS X but Windows 7 is fine too, that I can use to extract the lossless files and create AIFF or FLAC files through? I wanna be able to...

I just ordered a bunch of cables from Chris_Himself, and having experienced the burn-in myself from his cables on my now sold D2K's, I want to get these cables burnt-in quickly and easily. Thats why I was hoping to get advice on how to setup a burn-in station. I was thinking maybe if I could...

So I was wondering if anyone here could help me out. I was wondering if I could take the White Clickwheel from a 6th Gen iPod and use it in an iPod Video. I wanna make my iPod look like an Oreo with a black plate and center button. The clickwheel for the iPod Video White version is actually...

I mainly need help finding the plugs that would fit inside a recessed port on a CIEM similar to the ones on Westone and JH Audio CIEM's. I am getting a pair of Aurisonics AS-1b's and I want to make some of my own cables, but don't even know where to start in terms of searching for the plugs i...

So I guess I should apologize for making yet another thread asking for help, with other threads for each of my needs already well developed on the forums, but I have found it hard to collect the information I am looking for.   I like to get a birthday present for myself each year, and this...

Just having a little bit of fun here guys.....That being said, ACED IT!   Anyone else have a survey pop up from head-fi? Comments/Thought?    Also, I would love to hear what people put in a suggestions for the future of the forums.

I am a basshead and looking in the sub-$100 range for a nice pair of earbuds. I want something that can handle decent bass and generally play all different types of music as well. Anyone own any of these earbuds and can give me some advice?

I know a bit about Ear plugs that are meant for use without earbuds, just to protect your ear drums. I was wondering if you guys could help me understand exactly what different ones their are, what they can offer me, and will I be able to use them to protect my ears and still socially function...

I am currently in the process of prototyping my cut out method and feel for a foam insert for my car, so it can hold my phone, iPod, and ZO2 nice and firm while I drive )Phone, Music Player and my Portable Amp). I have the measurements for the ZO2, as I do not have mine yet, and plan to make it...

I just got the Denon AHD2000's and enjoying them immensely. The problem is I have no use for all the length I have in the cord. I have never done an audio connector before, but was thinking of cutting the cord at the length that I want and putting a new plug on. I just want to know what is...
