It's been years since I last participated on head-fi, but felt compelled to write a quick review after my last headphone experience.  Quick background: the height of my head-fi participation involved a balanced pair of Lawton Audio D2k's, DACMagic and a RudiStor amp.  For me it was pretty much...

I sold my previous headphone setup which I came to love, some LA-D2000's, Rudistor NX-33 amp and a DacMagic. I'm looking to get back into the game and it looks like the NFB-10SE is a great way to break the ice for an amp/DAC for the money and looking for some cans that would pair up with it...

I'm debating going the internal sound card route if I want to mess around doing some music creation down the road. I'm trying to research which sound cards offer balanced output and the one I keep coming back to is the Lynx L22. Would it be an upgrade from my Pico? Any input would be...

My good friend is in the market for some new in ear headphones to run off of his Sansa clip. Keeping it within the $40 - $80 range, what headphones would you recommend? I was thinking something like the Metro.Fi 200, Super.Fi 3 but both are at the top of his price range, anything closer to...

I was wondering if someone could help shed some light on a situation I'm experiencing. I just picked up a RudiStor NX-33 amp and have it running off of a Pico for my source. I initially plugged my phones in the SE jack and get a pitch black background, all the way up until full volume, then I...

I'd have to say that some of my favorite music to listen to on the headphones is high quality recordings with female vocals. I'm always looking for new stuff to try, here are some I enjoy... Samantha James - Rise is one of my favorites hands down. She has an intoxicating voice, great...

Over the past couple months, I took a lot of head-fi advice to heart and have been pleased with my first rig I put together. I started off with some Denon AH-D2000's and right out of the box I was pretty impressed overall, but knew they could sound much better by modding them and adding an amp...

I'm pretty new to head-fi, but quickly caught the bug. As of now I only have my Denon AH-D2000's but I have a bunch of things already on order waiting for their arrival. HeadAmp Pico - Just waiting on Justin to ship. Hopefully see it this coming week, he said it should ship this past week...

So I'm about to pull the trigger on re-cabling option for my D2k's. I'm leaning towards an option I saw at APureSound.com that terminated the cable with an XLR jack which gives me the option to attach a 1/4" , 1/8" , or balanced ends. I love the idea of being able to switch my end so I...

So I'm relatively new to Head-Fi and already took a plunge on a set of Denon AH-D2000 which I'm currently working on burning in. I primarily use my headphones when working on my laptop. My current setup is as follows: Laptop -> Turtle Beach Amigo -> Yamaha Reciever -> Denon AH-D2000's...

I just signed up on the forum to put in an order for the HeadAmp Pico w/ USB DAC and looking for some suggestions on a nice set of headphones to run with it. The types of music I listen to range from trance, vocal trance, industrial, electronica, r&b, alternative, metal, hip-hop, and old school...
