Anyone know how to setup the Project Polaris amp with the JVC HA-Sz2000's? Amp is connected directly to the back of my motherboard.

I will have to try out the cascades. On another note, I regret not buying an extra pair of 2000’s....

Seriously? JVC is still on top after so many years?

Anything come close or beat out the JVC HA-SZ2000 yet? Is this thread still being updated?

Purchased the Polaris. Acrylic with purple LED and silver knob. Looks great. Thanks for the help bud! Any tips on how to setup the Polaris to work with the SZ-2000 and Philips X2HR's?

Before I make my purchase, what do you think about Project Ember II? Would this be any better?

Ah, I see now. Question, what cable will I need to connect it to my PC?

Seems like I have to build the Polaris? I have no experience in dealing with amps...

No DAC here. I doubt I'll go portable anytime soon. Going to connect the amp str8 to my PC. I have a high end motherboard and I don't hear any noise when I connect my headphones to it.

The Garage1217 Project Polaris looks pretty good. Is the iFi Micro iDSD that much better at the double the price? Same goes for the Emotiva.

Best amp for the SZ-2000? It'll mostly be connected to my PC so whatever will push these bad boys to the fullest. Thanks in advance. BTW, also plan on connecting my Philips X2HR's to the amp as well.

Forgot to mention that I'll be connecting the amp to my desktop PC/iPhone XS Max. Would I still need a DAC? Last of all, what do you folks think of the FIIO A5? I'm guessing this is a portable AMP? I wouldn't mind something just for my desktop if it provided better performance.

V-MODA Crossfade Wireless Plus or Sony MDR-1000x for PC gaming?

Just bought a pair for $150 brand new from Amazon. Has the QC been improved since last year?

Seems like some people claim the LSR305's have a slight better sound because of the slightly tubby bass on the LSR308's. 

If they released something that pounds just as hard with better mids/highs, I'd be the first in line.

I currently have speaker stands on both sides of the desk. I'd have no issues placing a sub somewhere near. I'd like to have my monitor, PC and speakers on my desk though.   I'll check out the Swans. Thanks for the suggestion bud.

The hissing is normal on these JBL's because of the amp that's built in. I was thinking of perhaps going with passive speakers with a seperate amp? I don't mind losing some BASS if I'm getting the same mids/highs or better. I can always add a sub down the line. Thanks for your response bud.

sz2000 still the best eh? I feel like ordering another pair just in case my 1st pair takes a dump one day.

My brother wants to buy my JBL LSR308's. I love them but they are a little too big for my computer desk. I can sell them for $350 but only if I'm able to replace them with something smaller but just as good if not better. Thoughts? Only complains I have in regards to the JBL's are the size which...

Garbage review.

Interested in these headphones. Might have to wait for your final review. MassDrop is going to sell 1000 Fostex TH-X00 starting in a few hours. Wondering if I should order a pair.

I don't know want to clean up the glue.

Can't wait for the new stock to arrive. I just got some backup X2 ear cushions and all I need now is a some X2's without glue! I have about 3 weeks left to return my glued pair.  Thanks for the link.

Fio X7 looks to be a contender. Might have to consider this.
