Hi, I have an Ibasso D1.  It has been my mainstay USB dac for some time and been using it as a pre-amp for my Alesis Monitors.  I have not come across another amp that sounds as clean and warm.   Unfortunately one of the channels has failed on the AUX analogue in.  I think it is the input...

I'm looking for a balanced pre amp and would like tp make myself if there is a complete kit available. I've found some but not much helpful info on google. Is/has anyone done this sort of project, could point me in the right direction. cheers Lock

I have active speakers with balanced inputs. I'm looking for a pre-amp to power them. Google does not seem to be my friend. I'm considering a DIY job but would like some suggestions on possible options. My price range is Cheap as possible. I would also want to buy a complete kit with case...

I just purchased a Logic3 Universal Ipod Dock. All I wanted it for was convenience of remote control of my ipod. The SQ is actually very good, better than I would expect. The problem is it is poorly grounded, builds up static on the ipod case and introduces a High frequency Hiss!. I have the...

Hi, I currently have my ipod running through either a Ibasso D1 or a C&C+ Box into a 3.5mm to my active speakers. They are studio monitors so have no volume control only a trim control on each speaker. The volume is therefore dictated by the line level input. I want to get an ipod...

I have all the parts, can someone tell me which pins on a LOD connector are which audio channels? pics would help :-)

Hi, I'm looking to make a switching box. Can anybody posts some links for Case suppliers and suitable switch pots that will give good SQ an no bleed. It will a very simple design. But if solonoid switches are cheaply available I may try something a little more sophisticated. cheers guys.

I've been searching endlessly for decent 3.5mm mini jack and 1/4 mono jacks with no luck. Maplin sell some neutrik plugs but the 3.5mm jacks they have (not neutrik) seem tiny and won't house any reasonable size cable (it will need to fit 4 as I will need 2 ground). Can anyone advise where to...

Maybe it has been too long since I heard some new speakers, or maybe I have never experienced truely good sound reproduction.... or maybe I just have a bad memory, whatever the reason I am over the moon with my new purchase. I have been agonising over what new hi fi set up to go for. New amp...

Hi, As the title suggests. I received my C&C Box+ amp today and very impressed with it. Good sound, good construction and good price. The only thing is the quality of the Allen Cap bolts that hold it together. They do the job, but are a little uneven, and spoil it's otherwise flawless exterior...

I'll start by saying I much prefer isolating in-ear headphones than traditional Cans, I have listened to quite a few and the in-ears just seem to give more clarity... maybe I just don't like the distraction of the larger cans... who knows. Overall, I just wandered what people's oppinions...

been trying to track these down. or a source of the components (line out socket) so I could make one up... any advice? the search function on this forum leaves a lot to be desired!!! cheers

Hi everyone, my first post on here so please be gentle. Most of my music is now digital and I recently started using Logic on my Mac. I love it, but unfortunately the analogue 3.5 jack from the laptop leaves much to be desired!!. I'm looking for a decent porable DAC that supports optical...
