    DAP/amp for the DN-1000

    I just got a pair of Dunu DN-1000s, and despite the fit issues -- I had to try a dozen different tips -- I'm getting some really good sound from it.  However, used with Poweramp on my Moto X 32gb, they're pointing up the limitations of the on-board amp section. Or at least I think they are.  I'm...

    Basshead wants help

    Although I have a HUGE appreciation for the work ljokerl has done is his Multi-IEM review and for his skills as a critical listener, I think he and I have different ears and different priorities.  'Phones that he describes as balanced, or even as mildly bass-heavy, often come across to me as...

    Sound Card Advice - PC --> High-End Speakers

    I recently built a PC setup for all my home entertainment.  I use a 50" plasma TV for a monitor, have a blu-ray drive on the PC, but I mostly play games and listen to music (FLAC and mostly high-bitrate mp3), rather than watch movies, and I no longer even bother cable.   Currently, my audio...

    Radius DDM Lover seeks advice (TWF21? FTX90? GR07? MTPC?)

    Okay, I loved my DDMs.  They're not for everybody, but I'm the kind of guy that loves B&W speakers: I want musicality and a deep integration of the bass, not perfect resolution of each detail.  If nothing else, I'm 40 years old, and there's little doubt that my high-register hearing ain't what...

    DAP-Amp Interconnect?

    A couple of years ago, eBay was loaded with quality mini to mini interconnects for connecting an MP3 player to a portable headphone amp, many in the $20-40 range, but now I can't find anything.  Does anyone know where to find these now?

    What to Rockbox?

    It seems as though, beyond iPods, which I simply dislike, there aren't many DAPs currently on sale in the US that can be Rockboxed.  What's currently available?  What's best?  I'd like to give Rockbox a try for the great EQ customization and crossfeed options, but don't want to invest a whole...

    Corda Headsix screws

    Hello, all.  My Corda Headsix amp's screws were stripped out some time ago, and I've been unable to locate replacement screws.  I've tried hardware megastores,  microstores, and RadioShacks.  Can anybody tell me where to get them, or even what size they are?

    Radiohead fan looking for new IEMs

    I seem to have lost my UE Super.fi 5 Pros on a flight home from FL (reference my previous posts for more details on this weakness of mine in re: air travel).  No more need be said than that I'm in need of a new set of IEMs.  I do much of my listening on planes, so isolation is a concern.  ...

    My Run-In With the TSA, or Fun With the Bomb Squad

    A few months back, a Head-Fier made a post in which he strongly suggested not travelling with a mint-tin cMoy amp. As a business traveler, I took it seriously, but experimentally continued to travel with my amp (my Headsix needs new faceplate screws, which I cannot locate). I never had the...

    Meier Headsix Screws

    The screws on my Headsix have become stripped. The local hardware superstore does not carry anything so small, and I couldn't find anything at Radioshack, either. I'm sure the screw is available online, but I don't knopw what size it is. I think it's a #3, but it could be a #2, and the threads...

    C&C F1?

    Can anyone share impressions of this little amp? I love the design, but have heard very little about it.

    Yet another cheap amp thread. Please help anyway.

    Okay, I know something exactly like this thread is always on tap here, but I've been searching and reading, and -- though I've really learned alot from this site about what's out there (heck, I've even started reading reviews of opamps!) -- I'm running into the limitations imposed by my...
