Anyone else try the TWE from BEBEN? I got them on Amazon for $30 or so to have something cheap and wireless while at the office. These things really surprised me! Not the most incredibly open sound stage in the world (they're sub $40, not complaining) but I would definitely buy another pair...

Quote:   I have been following this thread and realized that my speaker cable is not equal. My right channel (same distance from the reciever as the left channel) has a much longer cable length (which I cut). Is this going to affect the sound output or the quality?   Also, is 25ft...

I'll answer myself with a link I should have found before posting this.   http://www.head-fi.org/t/604185/shure-se530-recabling

I bought my Shure SE530 IEM's about 5yrs ago and now I am wanting to ge them recabled. I have no idea where to start or if this is possible with the 530 IEM's.   Any help would be great!

After burn-in time, speaker adjustment/placement......etc   I have found that for the first time I can legitimately say that I know what quality sound-stage is and how to achieve it. I finally have the body and definition in my ALAC files that I have been searching for. I have never heard...

Just purchased the D1 with some nice signal cable and a glass sonicwave toslink. Ready to enjoy the ambiance.

I have just purchased this for testing to add to my Sony receiver -      http://signalcable.com/analogone.html (this is where I bought my cable)   Audioengine D1   Sonicwave Glass Toslink Cable   Let me know if this is an adequate setup.     Also, what type of USB cable...

This makes sense. I sure do enjoy the current power I am pushing, compromising that would be a step in the wrong direction for my taste. Thank you for the input. This is all new to me, I'm better with live sound and the mixing process.

I am using a Sony STR-SE485 receiver with Bose 201 Series II from 1984. My thinking in going receiverless is all about space without losing quality.

Thank you HeadphoneAddict for your input on this!   If I do end up moving my 2 channel setup to it's own location that is more ideal for critical listening, do you think it would be an option to use the: aTV> D1> N22 > Bose Series II? Is this a correct way of thinking or will it not have the...

I am planning on pairing the AUDIOENGINE D1 with the N22 to use with bookshelf speakers. IE- D1 usb powered, using optical in, rca out to N22, N22 with speaker wire, to bookshelf speakers. If so, how was it? Does this make sense or is it overkill? Mostly using AppleTv and bluray optical out...

Looking forward to hearing the D1.

Thanks again for the tips!   I connected the toslink directly to the Apple TV, made a difference for sure. Opened the range up a lot. What I am realizing through all of this is that the Bose Series II have a ver small sweet spot and require the receiver to be at volume 50 out of 72(max). 50...

Thank you very much for the info. I will be working on/with all of this. Final question: Is the Denon a better option than the D1?

Quote:   I have a Sony STR-DE485.   Very Cheap toslink cable and very cheap 16ga speaker wire.   I do notice the sound getting muddy at some points similar to bad live mix at a concert. I can't pick out instruments or it doesn't have the range for uncompressed audio.   Could...

Fresh, new, audiophile here. (very new at this)   I am wanting to use the D1 solely for the 2 channel audio benefits. (reading comments above this DAC is not the best for my Shure SE530 IEM)   My setup right now is: Apple TV and BluRay Player plugged into my TV through HDMI. I then have...
