    N22 + Aune T1 wiring

    Hey guys, I just purchased an Aune T1 for a great price and I was just wondering how should I set it up if I want to use it as a dedicated DAC.  My other components include audioengine P4 and N22, and I use my grado SR325is frequently.   Is this the proper setup?   Computer -> Aune T1 via...

    I do love shivas.  But recently I've been getting a heart on nearly every character I can. Problem with int heroes is they get targeted in team fights and can't contribute, with shivas or guinsoo it's like a grenade.  Run in and pull the pin then die.  But with heart you can outlast most your...

    Nonsense, take mid as pugna, zeus or lina.  I do random the heroes though, so I guess that helps with gold :D.  As dazzle it's had not to steal the kills because of poison touch's DOT and damage through heals.     But you need good supports, I'm a lousy support with all heroes except for...

    Dazzle, Pugna, Zeus, Lina with aghanims + 2 hearts.  Nothing can touch you and you last long enough to get all the kills :D.

    Fiio X3 enough to drive Yuin PK1s?

    Sorry if this has been answered, but it seems like nobody runs Fiio X3s with PK1s on this board.  Or maybe it's such a common thing to do that nobody mentions it.   So I just need a simple answer: Can the X3 run PK1s without an external amp and sound better than PK2s?

    Macbook Pro Sound setup! (Help Please!)

    Turn off the TV and use your MBP to play just audio through the receiver without mirroring your display.  Still the same thing happening?

    Gigabyte P34G good gaming laptop????

    Well if you play the "waiting for a better laptop" game, you'll be waiting until the end of time.   edit- sorry I misread your last post, what games do you plan on playing?  That'll be easier.

    I'm on Dota 2.  Been playing since the original Dota on WC3.   Only tip I have to noobs is don't play it.  You'll want to cry after every game for the first ~48-96 hours, but you'll be addicted right after.  You'll find the worse kind of people on this game, but that's expected because each...

    Gigabyte P34G good gaming laptop????

      By the time it goes on sale there will be a better laptop you could buy for this original price.  It's best to wait as long as possible before buying anything related to computers.   So is the laptop's dimensions very important to you?  SSD won't do much for gaming, but it sure does help...

    Gigabyte P34G good gaming laptop????

    There are definitely better gaming laptops out there for the price, but they will be a lot bulkier.  This one won't outperform many other laptops but it will run most games decently and if size is a concern for you this may be the best you can do.

    Best budget headphones for a picky person...?

    Thanks guys, they just came in and I love the sr80is so far.  My L-cush pads should be here tomorrow so that will be fun as well.   The only issues I have with it is the build quality, not up to par with what I've seen with others.  And the box is comes with?  It's so dated, urbanears were...

    Black List of unauthorized retailer in US ( Amazon ) updated on 20-07-2012

    Does this mean other retailers on Amazon are legit to buy from?  I'm thinking about purchasing it from Electronica Direct vendor from Amazon.   I would rather buy it from Amazon because I have a lot of store credit with them for selling my school books.  But I don't want a fake.

    Good place to demo cans?

    There's always Amazon.  It's what I've been doing, as long as there's a problem with the headphones they refund you all the money.  The best reason for a return is "Different from description" because most descriptions describe the headphones as the best headphones out there.  As long as it's...

    Best budget headphones for a picky person...?

    Quote:   I'm being picky again but Sennheiser seems too mainstream now to be as good as some others for the value.  Probably not true but I like to have a more rare set, even though I won't be showing mine off :P.   And I don't know how I feel about the B&W's.  I like them but I...

    Best budget headphones for a picky person...?

    Quote:   Hmmm well maybe if the Grado doesn't work out for me I'll return them and try this.  Thanks.   Quote:   Yeah, I'm definitely not looking to spend this much.  Mainly because I want to be able to mod mine with peace in mind knowing I'm not risking a $1000 set of...

    Best budget headphones for a picky person...?

    Honestly, I really do like the Grado.  I'm not sure why they look so cheaply built to me, maybe that's just me.  However, I just bought the sr80s, was about to go for the 125s but reviews said not to spend more unless I'm going for the 225s or higher.  Bought them from Amazon so the return will...

    Best budget headphones for a picky person...?

    What I'm looking for a is a minimalistic type of headphone.  The kind like Grado, Urbanears Plattan, HifiMan HE-xxx, ES7, ES10, something along these lines.     I was about to take the plunge on the Grado, but then I found out they use foam pads.  I'm looking for some sort of isolation...
