    worth the upgrade? Superlux 668B to Audio Technica AD900

    what external amp would you suggest that would be the best to drive the Superlux's or the Audio Technicas?  Remember, it would run from the Titanium HD so what would create the best "synergy" between the Titanium HD soundcard, external amp and Superlux's or Audio Technica's?  And with that being...

    worth the upgrade? Superlux 668B to Audio Technica AD900

    it is only plugged into a Soundblaster Titanium HD at this point...that is why i was looking at the Audio Technicas (and Superlux) to begin with in that they seem to not need an external amp/dac to drive them that much.  I was looking into getting an FiiO E17 in the future as a carry around/all...

    worth the upgrade? Superlux 668B to Audio Technica AD900

    Can anyone tell me is there that much of a sound "upgrade" to go from the Superlux 668B to a set up Audio Technica AD900?  I want an open backed set for sound and I do like the sound sig of the Superluxes and actually bought them instead of a pair of Audio Technica AD700 that i was about ready...

    Thanks for all the suggestions everyone!  Where would be the best place (I live in the States) to buy the newer E17 for the best price???  I would be able to use this as just the amp coming from my Titanium HD right?

    REVIEW: Fischer Audio FA-011 - OFF THE DEEP END!!

    Thank you DefQon for that!  Question, could you recommend a portable amp to go in tandem with the Titanium HD and is also good to power something like an Ipod as well?  How are the mids on the Fischers?  Besides music, I would be using these just as much for gaming (adventure, RPG, some...

    Quick Decision! Senn HD598 vs ATH-AD900 vs Fischer FA-011

    Anymore thoughts on the Q701's??....i ended up holding off and doing some more research.  It seems like everyone is saying that to get the full sound from the Q701, you will need some type of amp.  Since I only have a Titanium HD card in my comp, would that do it justice?  Same with the Senn...

    REVIEW: Fischer Audio FA-011 - OFF THE DEEP END!!

    Has anyone had enough time with their new pair to post any thoughts or reviews yet?  I am stuck between these, the Senn 598 and the AKG 701Q....if I can get a sound that has a fun sound close to the Senn or AKQ for $170, i will just go with the Fischers.    Also, what portable amp (non tube)...

    Quick Decision! Senn HD598 vs ATH-AD900 vs Fischer FA-011

    Looking to get a set up cans mainly for gaming and movie watching (late night surround sound) and some music listening and have narrowed it to these 3 since the Fischer Audios (the newer light wood version) are avaliable again through Frogbeats.   Looking for large soundstage and positioning...

    Also, has the ordering and shipping "issues" with GD Audiobase that are well documented in this post been cleared up or can it still be a guessing game or months before you actually get what you order.  I really like the light colored wood (natural) ones but have never wanted to order some...

    First time post so please bear with me. Me and my wife just had a baby girl (yeah!).
