Hi, I recently made my own cable. However, after finishing and testing it, I found that due to both ground cables being attached to the same ground pin in the 3.5mm jack, it transfers a bit of each channel into the other (only about 20% volume). I figured I could attach some diodes to the ground...

As stated in the title, I was just wondering if there was a step by step guide or walkthrough to building the O2 amp?  I already have all the parts necessary I think, but I just wanted to watch someone else do it before I go for it.   -Jon

Hi, after reading the DIY forums for a while, I've kept hearing the Hakko 936 is a good soldering station, but I can't seem to find it on amazon.  Instead, I find the aoyue 936.  Is this just as good?  Is there a better soldering station out there that I should consider?

Hi guys, I just had a quick question.  I am currently running the K702 off of the xonar dx, and was just wondering what the best options were for these headphones?   I am currently using:   Audio Chanel: 8 channels Sample Rate: PCM 192 KHz Analog Out: Headphone SPDIF Out: PCM (checked)...

I bought the AKG K702 65th anniversary editions recently, and I already own a Xonar DX to act as my DAC/source.   As such, I am looking for a good amp, preferably not too expensive.   Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

Hi Head-fi,   I've recently begun looking into over-ear headphones as an alternative to my koss porta-pros (which are a nice portable set, but I would like something for use at home).  I saw the AKG K702 Annie and loved the design, and it was mentioned in many of the recommendation guides you...
