Hey all, my first DAC/Amp combo I purchased was the iBasso D-Zero and it has given me noble service. I am moving away from portable audio into desktop audio now that I am not on the go as much so instead of being used as an Amp, my D-Zero is being used strictly as a DAC. It seems to sound great...

Intro- There are a few times in every audiophile's life where one is simply overtaken with how good something sounds. This reaction can usually be identified by an unstoppable smile and the sound of laughter. Sadly as we grow more and more into this hobby it seems that those special moments...

It's that time again! I've spent the past year or so upgrading my amp and dac selection but I think it's time to get some better cans to match. I am between the HE-400's and the classic HD-600's since they are both around the same price. I've heard great things about both headphones and need...

Hello all, for the past few months I've been interested in diving into the world of tube amps. For Christmas I'm asking for a LittleDot MKII tube amp. I plan on using it with my 50ohm Sennheiser HD595s. From my research I understand that normally tube amps are used with higher impedance...

Hello all, I was watching a music video and many members of the band are shown wearing these headphones that I can't for the life of me identify. It's killing me now so I must find out what they are. They look pretty sweet. Help me out!   Music video is Something by AZEDIA for all those...

I don't know how to really start this post but this has been on my mind for a while. So a few weeks back I attended my first official Head-Fi meet. For days I was excited about getting to listen to many of the headphones I had dreamed about one day owning coming from rigs that cost as much as my...

Good day fellow headfiers, I am currently planning on purchasing a Schiit Asgard2 amp as the first component in my desktop setup. I was also thinking of getting the Schiit Modi DAC to go with the Asgard. The problem is that I already have a iBasso D-zero which I am using now as a DAC. Would...

Hello all, I've been doing a little research on starting a desktop rig with an amp and DAC for the past few weeks. I have been using my portable iBasso d-zero running from my macbook pro for this purpose for about a year now but we all know how it goes, you start wondering how your gear can...

The other day a few of my friends and I were talking about the future and this got me thinking. What will headphones look like in 25, 50, 100 years? Will they still even be around.   Here's some things I can see happening in the future.   1. The future is wireless, new wireless...

I didn't know where to post this but Sound Science seemed like a good place. Looking around at higher end headphones I see many have a huge frequency range all the way up to 48,000Hz. If human hearing is at best only 20-20,00Hz what is the point of having headphones that go way beyond that? It's...
