I have a TempoTec Sonata HD PRO for my Android phone, which I bought in order to use it while on the go. Unfortunately, while I am walking, it disconnects very often (even if it does not gets phyisically detached from the mobile phone). Should I lose my hope and consider a different approach...

Hi guys, I have a problem with my Halide Bridge usb converter: Windows only sees it as an unrecognized device. I have tried the basics, like changing the usb port, trying windows update, uninstalling the usb periferal in device management, but everything fails. Is there perhaps some driver I can...

Hi guys, the title explains all: I would like to use a good quality parametric equalizer with Foobar2000. If possible, I would still want to output through Wasapi or other Bitperfect solutions. Any expert?

Hey guys, I was wondering: which headphones would take advantage by being driven by a speaker amp, such as the Hifiman HE6 does when directly connected using an XLR to spades adapter?

Hi guys, I have just purchased a Sony KD55XF9005 Android TV. I would like to use my external DAC (Halide DAC HD) with it (which is plug and play with Linux and Windows). Is there a setting with Android TV? Or maybe an app? I have been trying, but audio only comes out from speakers... What...

Hi guys, I need a regulated low noise power supply for USB, to use with my twin cable. What is a good one that is not an audiophile rip off? Thank you! Tony

Hi! I am looking for some replacement pads for my Sennheiser Momentum. I have been looking on eBay but I can only find cheap chinese copies, which I don't want. I need original replacements, or a well made replacement from a reputable accessory maker. Could you help me? Thank you!

Hi guys! I have some IEM's at home that I would like to reshell into custom IEMs. Are there any companies that can do this for me? It would be better if they were EU based, but it's okay even if they were overseas. I would provide custom molds. Thanks for the help :)

I am interested in trying to DIY some Etymotic ER4 cables, and the biggest problem to me would be to make the right pins for connecting it to the earpiece. In the past, there used to be the www.fixup.net page (Xin's page), but the domain doesn't exist anymore. Xin posted thorough instructions...

I have found this interesting interface, it's from Hungary and, apparently is a high end implementation of the M2tech algorithm (just like the Offramp and some others). Has anyone some first hand experience with it?   On a side note, given so many manufacturers are adopting the M2tech...

Where can I buy some comply tips on the cheap for my Etys? Possibly with a cheap international shipping too, I live in Italy, I would like to get them from the UK or so... Thank you! Tony

Well the title explain it all, I am purchasing a FIFO kit (diyAudio) and I'd like to buy such a computer card. Anyone knows what I could buy, for the cheapest price? Thanks.

I am wondering, has anyone tried the Realizer with Sony Qualia? The Qualia are often said to have slightly bright midrange, and need to be adjusted to the head size of a person in order to sound best. Given the Realizer, on some extent, can also work as a 'natural' equalizer, couldn't the...

My cousin is going to Tokyo for a couple of days. I know that there are a couple of threads about the issue, but I would hope to raise some more information: I would like him to buy the SR-009 for me, at a cheaper price than the street price. The Price that's listed by PriceJapan, 309,800 Yen...

I would like to know what's the best sounding among the latest iPod Touch generations, since I'd like to get one to use also as gaming platform   As an alternative, I could see myself playing around with an iPad Mini, IF it sounds better than the other models for any reason   What chips...

A friend of mine, after researching, decided to buy an Acoustic Revive USB1.0SP for his AMR DP-777 hiend dac. The cable cost him the equivalent in Euros of 800 dollars. It's a twin cable (two usb inputs, one for power, the other for signal), like several others. I have read about it at Positive...

I have been always liking to experiment with cables (both analogue and digital). I tried Moray James cables, VH Audio, Headphile, and other stuff. Moray analogue cables are among the most detailed, albeit a bit edgy. VH Audio, although quite expensive and very fragile, are very rich sounding and...

I have just purchased an ART Legato, to go with my newly purchased Museatex dac (DA44). The DA44 only takes RCA input. The ART comes from the manufacturer's bnc cable, and a bnc to rca adapter. Regardless, I would want the chance to use a Moray James digital between the two devices (Legato...

I was talking with KG lately, and among the other subjects, he mentioned me the Korg MR2 portable recorder/player, saying it has killer sound quality, at least with high resolution music. I have seen it for sale on Amazon.com and most shops, new, for 499$. Part of me is tempted, although after...

I sometime mentioned a DAC I was loving a few years ago, a Museatex Bitstream with John Wright upgrades and blackgates. That was my first high end digital source; up to today, its analogue sound has still remained unique, for me... and I stupidly sold the unit to a fellow Russian headfier. Well...

Halide DAC HD     I have got interested in this DAC after having owned Halide Design Bridge, which I enjoyed a lot as a very clever, super compact solution, with which I could get rid of many digital cable and jitter-related paranoias. When I purcahsed the Bridge usb/spdif only, I was a...

Review My interest for April Eximus DP1 started because of a combination of reasons. First of all, the introduction of their U3 unit, in an era where the main trend has been to deal with computer audio, and usb-related issues (mainly, jitter rejection, and bitperfect reproduction)...

I have been pointed to this DAC by a fellow head-fi'er (jimndre): http://www.msbtech.com/products/analogDacDetail.php   It's in the "would love to try, can't have" price bracket, but I can't help being curious. Anyway, compared to the other top MSB models, if you sum up what's offered, it...

  This is my reiew of Audio-gd NFB-9.2. After having sold my modded Museatex Bitstream, I have been in search for the perfect dac (or a more perfect dac), which could replace it for its believable tonality, its wonderful sense of colour and reality given to instruments, possibly offering...

I am having a problem with my Etymotic: one driver (the right one) sounds at much much lower volume than the other one. What should I do (other than sending them back for warranty)? I have now removed the filter on the right driver completely, so to rule out that possibility, but it's still...
