Hi folks. I am looking for tips for selling an LP collection that I just haven't uncorked in about 20 years. All sorts of interesting stuff in there. Examples: Audiophile pressings from Mobile Fidelity (In think an UHQR of Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon); import pressings (The Wall...

Yep, today a friend gave me back my Grado HP-2 phones. I traded it to him over 10 years ago for a PS Audio pre-amp. In fact, I didn't even remember selling the Grados to him until last summer, when I mentioned that I was looking for a pair. He decided to give them to me because he rarely used...

I am wondering if anyone here has compared the Grado HF-1 to the HP-2. I currently have the HF-1 with my SinglePower PPX, but have not heard the HP-2 in years (and, when I did, it was on the Melos SHA-1). I have a chance to get the HP-2 setup and wondering if the performance benefit is...

I'm a happy owner of a SinglePower PPX3. Great amp with my Grado HF-1 cans. I think it's a big cut above in sound, part quality, build quality, circuit design, and reliability over the budget tube amps that are usually sourced from China. Over the past few months, I found myself listening...

Does anyone have any insight on a series of articles by Gary Galo which ran in AudioXpress? The series covered mods on the Adome GTP-565 preamp. Has anyone heard it? Is the effort worthwhile? is there a sumamry of the articles somewhere on the web? thanks!!! Article dates: Pt 1: November...

Is their any logical method to listen to headphones via your system components? I was thinking that mayve there is a creative way of using a tape loop or some other pre-amp output directly to a headphine amp or something of that nature. Thoughts? suggestions welcome!

Hi folks.... I'm looking for a used preamp that has a headphone jack. Does anyone have suggestions? It's going to be for a 2 channel video system.... not much audio, just DVD playback. The HP jack will drive Grado 60 'phones for late night video watching. A Melos is overkill (heat-wise and...

There have been plenty of questions about the Little Dot II here on the forum, but very few comments and not a review in sight. A few weeks ago I decided to bite the bullet and try out one of these newcomers to the audio headwear world. I purchased the unit to serve as a backup amp, but my plans...

What a guy! He creates a headphone for his niche fanatic users at $200 that not only blows away everything else is his prestiege line (even the stuff priced at over $300), it gets constant comparison to the Signature line RS-2 phones at $500. No the HF-1 isn't better than the RS-2, but it's...

Interesting thread at the ipod studio site.... they did a LD II group buy and the result was huge problems. Some folks are on their 2nd defective unit. NOW the price increase from $110 to $237 makes sense... recouping losses. Hmmmmm...... http://ipastudio.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1862

Hi folks.... what's the logical move up from an entry level amp for driving Grados? I guess I'd call entry level an op-amp type design (like the Grado RA-1, cmoy, and so on). What's the next level up in performance? I like tubes... but it seems like a lot of the tubs amps in the $500 range...

I've called a few stores, stopped at Alma's, checked a few web sites.... nope, nobody has 'phones! Does anyone know what stores in the Detroit/Ann Arbor area sell higher end headphones? thx!

Looking for feedback between thesetwo models. Has the 325 repalced the Signature series in the line-up? What is the real-world performance difference? Feedback appreciated...thanks!

First, I just discovered this site and have been reading like mad for 2 days... what a great forum! This is my first post. I'm an ex-audiophile looking to get back into some gear. About 3 years ago I sold my Martin Logan and associated gear because listening time as a parent was limited...
