    Best Dap that can run Spotify

    My second Gen iPod touch has finally kicked the bucket, so I'm looking for its replacement. I'd like something that can run the Spotify app, meaning I'm looking for either an iPod Touch or android based PMP. Normally use my Heir 4.Ai's or Monoprice 8320's when out and about so I'm not too...

    Starving Student Vs Bottlehead Crack, best DIY amp for the HD650s?

    Just ordered a set of HD650s for myself and need an amp to go with it. Should be easily able to build either and am a pretty capable woodworker so enclosures shouldn't be an issue. Which of the two amps would be a better match for my headphones?

    Buying drivers for DIY headphones?

    Have the urge to build a set of headphones but I'm having no luck in finding drivers. Does anyone sell just drivers without the rest of the headphones or should I just buy a pair of iGrados or SR60is  and take them apart?

    £1000 to spend on a new portable rig.

    Finally ready to move on from my old rig (iPod Video, Fiio L3, Fiio E11 and Grado Sr60). Moving to London soon so I'm looking for a setup that sounds nice, but also isolates me from the noise on the tube. Would also like to be able to use this rig for home listening as I'm planning to some nicer...
