I made a major upgrade to my system a few weeks ago. A shiny new Accuphase E-650 arrived and I have been putting it through the paces with my Sonus Faber Guarneri Memento's since it was setup. Of course a significant improvement was noticed immediately. I was previously using a Yamaha A-S801...

So here is my current setup.   PC (Foobar2000 lossless FLAC source) -> iBasso D10 cobra -> Musical Paradise MP-301 tube amp -> Beyer DT990/600   I am looking to upgrade my DAC portion. The MP-301 amp is a really good performer and I am really happy with it. My budget for a DAC is...

So I am looking to get a budget DAC to pair with my MP-301 tube amp (this thing is awesome by the way). Just wondering if anyone had any opinions on if I should go with the uDAC2 for $129 or the nuforce Icon (DAC/amp combo) for $179.   I am mainly concerned about the DAC aspect of the unit...

Hello all,   Just wondering how accurate the beyer manufaktur website is about the colors. This is the set of cans I was thinking about purchasing and I wanted to make sure that they headband and the accents match. Thanks in advance.  Cheers!  

Okay, so now that I have had my Sextett's for almost two weeks I have fallen in love with them. This means that my little PA2V2 is sadly not going to cut it as my only portable amp. Oddly enough, the headphone output from my Macbook Pro has better quality than the PA2V2. It is not as loud...

Here is what Fitz Pm'd me about modding the Ultrasone PROline 2500 to level out the treble and mids to make them more balanced. Quote: To do everything: Take the earpads off by twisting them counterclockwise, and remove the screws that hold the metal baffle plates in place. Fill the...

I posted this in the cable section, but I realize that not very many people look in that forum. Hopefully someone here can help me out. I am looking to make a new cable for my PROline 2500's. My only question is concerning the 3.5mm mini jack that connects into the PROline. Considering the...

I am looking to make a new cable for my PROline 2500's. My only question is concerning the 3.5mm mini jack that connects into the PROline. Considering the connection is a bit recessed into the headphone I need to find a mini jack that will fit all the way into the connection. I really don't...

Be honest. These cans are for my wife since she has been sneaking away with my new Senn 580's I told her I would try to either find her a pair for herself or buy myself a new pair of cans. I have been interested in the DT880, but really don't have the $200 right at the moment. Are the DT990's...

So would these be good phones for gaming? I also listen to blues, jazz, classical and various other types of music. They would also be used for home theater. I don't need earth shaking bass from my phones either like some people. Please let me know your opinions.
