    How to De-emphasize Dark Side of the Moon Black Triangle CD?

    You can use SoX on mac or PC, but it's command line. If you have a mac I would suggest using xACT, as it is not command line. Best of luck, that pre-emphasis DSOTM CD is one of my favorite versions!

    Audeze LCD-2 Impressions Thread

    If anyone is looking to brighten their LCD2s I'm selling a mint condition Moon Audio silver dragon cable for $120 cheaper than retail. After I installed the Bifrost Uber upgrade I was actually finding the LCD2 too bright for my liking.  ...

    Schiit Bifrost Uber Analog Upgrade

    Quote:   With additional listening sessions under my belt, I now feel like the uber has brightened the LCD2s. I also spent some time with my Ella & Louis sacd, which I use to test for sibilance because Louis' voice is nearly unbearable issue. I definitely noticed more sibilance than I...

    The (new) HD800 Impressions Thread

    Quote: I get that same complaint too. I bought her some Grado 60s in hopes that she would like something louder and more engaging than macbook "speakers". Nope, they spend all day sitting on the bookshelf with the macbook cranked up to 11.

    Grado Fan Club!

    Quote: I owed both for about a year, but ended up selling the 325is due to fatigue. I thought that my 325is were better at fine detail than the 80i's. In the end I still prefered the 80i's, regardless of price.

    Audeze LCD-2 Impressions Thread

    Quote: I've always wanted to hear the d7k. The LCD2 has been my go-to for electronic for a while, but I always like hearing other presentations.

    The (new) HD800 Impressions Thread

    Does anyone have experience with the Cardas vs. the Black Dragon for the HD800? I have the Cardas now (just "cheap" one, not the Clear) and I greatly prefer it to the stock cable. I'm interested to know if people prefer the Black Dragon to the Cardas. I've also been thinking about doing the...

    Audeze LCD-2 Impressions Thread

    Quote: I couldn't agree more. I listen to a wide variety of genres and it took me a while to realize that no single headphone could be the best at all of them. And when you think about it, why should there be? Listening to a bluegrass set, going to the symphony, and listening to a DJ are...

    Schiit Bifrost Uber Analog Upgrade

    Quote:   For me it was pretty much the same story as with my HD800s: more weight and a better low end. I think I appreciated the change more with the HD800, because I felt that they needed more bass. However, just because the LCD2 already has great bass doesn't mean that it couldn't be...

    Audeze LCD-2 Impressions Thread

    Quote: What do you enjoy most about the T1s that you can't get with the LCD2 or 800s? I'm asking because I have both the LCD2 and the 800, but I have never heard the T1. It's hard for me to imagine that there is some void that needs to be filled between them. However, at one point I...

    Grado Fan Club!

    Quote: I've used super glue before on my girlfriend's 60s. It worked fine and is likely a lot easier than dealing with Grado.

    Schiit Bifrost Uber Analog Upgrade

    Quote: The only thing I noticed being significantly different was the bass. Everything just seemed to have more weight to it. In a good way. It's possible that the treble was improved as well, because the sound is still well balanced. I find it very difficult to distinguish small...

    HD800 "Anaxilus" Mod

    Quote: Definitely the cheapest. I would recommend that everyone at least try it out. It was cheap, super easy, and completely reversible. However, in the end it just wasn't for me. With respect the the sibilance, my most enjoyable improvement came from switching over to a copper cable.

    Schiit Bifrost Uber Analog Upgrade

    Quote: I too was very pleased with the upgrade. I think the greatest benefit for me was the increased bass response in the HD800. That was the most noticeable difference, and it was exactly what I was hoping for with my 800s. I can't say that I noticed too many other differences.

    HD800 "Anaxilus" Mod

    Thanks for the info about this mod. However, I ended up not keeping it. Maybe it was just me, but I feel like the sound was a bit more congested and lacked some of the definition that was present prior to modding. I felt that this outweighed the slight reduction in sibilance that I noticed.

    LCD-2 WA6 Impedence mismatch

    I have a Woo WA6 and I was thinking about trying out the LCD-2. How bad of an idea is it to switch to the higher impedence(100-600ohm) setting on the WA6 if the proper impedence setting(1-99ohm) does not supply adequate power. Is this just a really bad idea? Will it provide any additional power...
