Hi, I'm looking for a cheap micro USB to micro USB (both male\OTG) - cheap as in less than 20$. It needs to go from my smartphone to the Chord Mojo. Any recommendations\links will be appreciated! Thanks :)

From what you know and measurements you did or found online - which was the one with the least distortion? (Usually there are only measurements of harmonic distortion) Some likely contenders: Audeze LCD2 (not all, but some) HifiMan RE-400\600 Audeze iSine 10\20\LCDi4(?) Stax SR-202\SR-404...

Hi, I wish to delve deeper into the field of sound science. I am a student in double major program in math and physics, currently in my third year, so I had basic courses on: Fourier analysis, probability, physics of waves, multivariable calculus, linear algebra, ordinary and partial...

I read conflicting things about whether the Chord Mojo has background hiss or not. So, for all of you Chord Mojo owners - does your Mojo hisses with any sensitivity headphones (even with the most sensitive you can find) ? Thanks!

I currently own an external DAC\Amp (Aune X1s), and when I turn the volume all the way up on the X1s and foobar2K, but turn it down almost to the minimum on the OS (Windows 10 64bit - education edition), I can't hear any static noise\hiss, but when I turn the volume all the way up on the OS and...

Hi, I just got my Aune X1s and it has this very bothering 'pop' and 'thump' sounds when I turn it on and off. I know this is relay related - but the question is; how do I fix it? Is it normal? Should I send it back for a repair? Thanks in advance!

Hi,   I have read somewhere that I can't trust all the measurements we see on the manufacturers' sites. Did someone measure and tested all the specifications which are declared in Matrix-Digi site? I would really like to know whether I can trust those specifications and where can I find tests...

Hi,   Unfortunately I can't listen to Stax SR-009 or the Audeze's LCD-3 headphones and would like to vaguely know what it sounds like, maybe by playing with the equalizer.  Does anyone in the forum who owns both will be willing to use Foobar2K's graphic equalizer (and not the awful one it...

Hi,   I've just purchased the Matrix M-Stage Amp (with the DAC, although I am going to use the X-Sabre or Yulong DA8 DAC later on) and only know thought that it might be a good idea whether it is even a step up from the PICO? (Using Senn's HD800) Thanks in advance! (:

Hi,   I currently own a pair of HD-800 (S/N 2XXXX) and would like to replace them with a more balanced pair of headphones, a pair with more bass and mids and less treble.  It should be within the same price range (I don't mind buying a used pair) of 1200$. I listen mostly and almost only to...

Hi,   As the titles says, I need a 6.3 to 3.5mm adapter, a good one for under 25$.   Thanks in advance :)

Hey,     I don't have the knowledge in order to design a circuit by myself, but can anyone\does anyone volunteer to design one for balanced Beta 22? Less cables, and overall neater look.   Thanks in advance :)

Hi,   I am planning on building the Buffalo III DAC (with beta 22 amp) and would like to know what should I order from 'Twisted Pear Audio' website for minimum budget? And if I would like a USB input, what else should I add?   Thanks in advance! :)

Hi,   I've tried looking for some head-fiers' thoughts and opinions about the Furutech CF-601M\2F connectors on the forums but didn't find any. Does anyone own one\tried a cable featuring the connector?   http://www.furutech.com/2013/01/27/1081/   and for the HD-800 (coming soon)...

Hi,   I'm thinking about building one with 2 channels and later on to convert into 4 channel Beta22. Is it possible?   Thanks in advance

Hi,   I am looking for a good pair of headphones for under 1500$ (source and amplification will be chosen accordingly later on) which will answer the best the following requirements: (At the moment I am considering the HD800, but didn't listen to them.....yet)   *I listen to Classical...

Hey,   I would like to hear some opinions about the sound quality compared to other portable music players in the market (Cowon\SanDisk). It would be great also to know with what gear you tested it. Is there any background hiss with low impedance IEMs (I am currently using Westone ES3X and...

So, still looking for the best chassis design which I can offer for Beta22. The front is glossy. Using thick glass over glossy finished black metal. The rest of the chassis is in anodized brushed black aluminum [also thick - about 4mm]. The text is under the glass and in glossy gold. And...

Hey, I am on the build of Beta22 and looking for the slimmest, most simply designed 6.3mm Jack Socket. I don't want it to destroy the look of the chassis, the closer to invisible the better it will be. Like in portable amps that you almost see nothing but a hole... Neutrik - Audio -...

Hey, I own Cowon D2 -> Pico DAC/Amp -> Westone ES3X and to me is sound like the amplifier only boost the bass and do nothing except that [oh, and also eliminate some background noise and gives higher volume levels which are useless for IEMs]. And there is lot of logic/sense in it, because...

Hey, I don't know which one to go for. The Opus or DacMagic? Which one is better? Thanks in advance, Oren.

Hey, Does Glass Jar Audio kit's parts are from high quality? Is it worth to buy from them or should I buy from Mouser? From which I can have higher quality parts and lower price? Thanks in advance, Oren.

Hey, Would like to have an advice for soldering-iron in the 200$ price range. Thanks in advance.
