    Audeze Earpad Mounting mod

    yeah, it works out well! easy to install and swap out pads if you need, and you can't even tell that there's an extra piece, everything looks stock.

    New Audeze LCD3

    Hey all! Just picked up a pair of LCD-3 (pre fazors), and man do they sound amazing. Was in the process of switching over to vegan pads, and figured I would make a way to install the pads better. Take a look and let me know what you guys think...

    Audeze Earpad Mounting mod

    Hi everyone, just thought I'd share my mod for my Audeze cans. I've always loved the look and sound of the Audeze LCD series. However, I've always hated one part of their design, which is the stupid adhesive ring that holds the earpad to the headphone. Really? $2000 can, and you use double...

    Oppo HA-1 Impressions Thread

    so after being bothered by the fact that I couldn't hear a difference, I brought my HA-1 over to my friend's place and spent some time on his schiit stack (gumby+mjo1) to compare. we a/b'd by plugging running his gumby into my HA-1, just like how I had set it up at home. We also used each...

    Oppo HA-1 Impressions Thread

    I personally own the HD800 and Oppo HA-1, running in balanced mode. I have been known to not be as sensitive to sibilence, but I personally really enjoy my HD800 on the HA-1, and don't find it harsh at all.

    Oppo HA-1 Impressions Thread

    ME working in an EE environment. Got experience in both worlds. Yeah, I've read a bunch of the reviews + actually heard the Gungnir Multibit before making the decision to buy it. It's possible that my Gungnir isn't warmed up cause I don't have the Mjolnir sitting on top of it like my friend's...

    Oppo HA-1 Impressions Thread

    Hahaha, I love how the first two replies are polar opposites for each other. Glad to know I'm not alone in this struggle! I'm an engineer by trade, so I definitely hear what you're (LarryMagoo) saying about Multi-Bit R2R DAC should be better than DS DACs. Everything in theory pointed to me...

    Oppo HA-1 Impressions Thread

    My buddy just recently upgraded to the Gumby, and since I've listened to his stack before he got multibit, I heard huge leaps in performance in terms of clarity, neutrality and the microdetails... enough to push me over the edge to finally pick one up too to replace my Oppo HA-1. Since I got the...

    Emotiva Stealth DC-1 DAC

    balanced out is not amped, I believe it is just a line out voltage. Probably not sufficient to drive your headphones. I used it as pre outs for my BHA-1. What cans are you running?

    New headphone amplifier from Bryston

    I used to use the BHA-1 as a preamp for my ADAM F5s, and they worked wonderfully. I've used both the SE and the XLR connections for the preamp. Can't really say anything wrong with it, it performs superbly. I guess specific to my setup, my only qualm was the ADAMs had the power switch on the...

    definitely interested in a meet soon, I missed the spring/summer one earlier this year!

    probably better to use an RCA splitter, rather than connecting both the L and R -ve of a balanced connection to ground.

    New headphone amplifier from Bryston

    electronically, there's no difference. 4 pin XLR just makes it less bulky for headphone applications, and convenience since both L/R channels are shoved into one connector. either way, balanced is the only way hahaha.

    New headphone amplifier from Bryston

      whattttt! so you still haven't heard the bryston balanced yet???   Yeah, Oppo is treating me well.... the convenience of the remote, the flashy display, bluetooth.......................... is what I like to say. hahaha. If i'm honest with myself, microdetails are lacking on this setup as...

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

      Regarding the LISST, I'm surprised to read the comment that the solid-state tubes are "actually slightly noisier than real tubes". Why is that? I would've expected SS components to have a much less noise than tubes.

    New headphone amplifier from Bryston

      maybe the newly released Schiit Mjolnir 2? =D its a guess though, I've only heard the Mjolnir, not the Mjolnir 2.
