The Vintage Dac & CD Player List/Review Thread
I thought phase-splitters were used to generate a balanced signal from a non-balanced one, not the other way around. Couldn't it just use 2 of the 4 dac chips to get an SE output? Quote:- jellojoe

The Vintage Dac & CD Player List/Review Thread
Do you guys notice any difference in the balanced vs. single-ended output from the parasound 1600HD? The balanced out seems to be clearer sounding on my speaker system, but it's hard to say because I have to volume match by ear.- jellojoe

For $200, would you get a pair of speakers or DT880s in my case?
go for a vintage stax energizer/earspeaker combo. Maybe you'll get lucky and get a lambda combo at $200. -

Building a stereo bookshelf system, looking for suggestions on DAC and integrated amp
Easy GAF solution: don't turn it off. More complex GAF solution: Pick up components that have DC triggers to turn themselves once the first one in the chain is on. Something like the Parasound SCAMP can help out if you have components which don't have triggers. Quote: -

Some people may take offense to this recommendation, but how about a clone of a firstwatt F5? A used one should run you around $500 and leave with you plenty of money left for preamp and dac. -
Wiring a sub please help?
Can't you just reduce the volume using the control on the sub amp itself? -
AKG K500 appreciation thread: K500 owners – UNITE!
Darkvoice 332 is excellent with the AKG K40x and K50x series. As for their history, I only found a bit here: http://www.audiocircuit.com/Home-Audio/AKG It says that K401 and K501 are introduced in 1996. Not sure about the accuracy, but this links says the K500 was launched...- jellojoe

Stax phones fragility
I guess you can always switch camps to the Koss ESP/950 since Koss has a lifetime warranty. You can use an adapter to use the Koss phones with your stax amps/energizers.- jellojoe
