    Finally found my old Corda HA-1 Mk II. To what would it compare nowadays?

    I was all set in searching a DAC/Amp combo device but today I've finally found my old Corda. I stopped using it ages ago and I had given it for lost. It's practically new. Connected it and it works perfectly. Currently using it with my equally old DT-880 (I recentely changed to new earpads...

    I was looking at buying a DAC/AMP for my desktop use and I'm considering Topping's product. Is it good? Would it work well with my DT-880?

    Suggestion for earphones with built-in memory?

    Budget around $80. 8GB of memory would be enough. Open to any suggestion.

    Bluetooth Custom IEMs. Anybody offering them?

    As per the title, is there any company offering Bluetooth custom IEMs? Size is not a problem for me. But given the hassle of using Comply eartips, I would love to have a custom wireless IEMs. Please refrain from commenting about sound quality, I'm frankly not interested in an audiophile...

    Bluetooth microphone to use with wired headphones. Does it exist? Smartphone use

    I'm wondering... is there any bluetooth microphone that one could clip to a jacket in order to use wired headphones with a smartphone while being able to pick up a call without needing to take out the phone?

    Which Comply tips for JVC HA-FXC50

    Title says it all. I've read reference here to the TX-400. On Comply website I see that for the HA-FXC51 it says they're not compatible and advise the TX-500.   What do you think? Thanks in advance.

    Replaygain and crossfade on iOS

    Have been looking for an app that supports replaygain and crossfade on iOS, with no luck.   Does one exist? Soundcheck workin only at track level is deeply unsatisfying.

    Android memory capacity. Figures?

    I'm investigating Android phones because I would like to ditch my iPod Touch and iPhone 3GS, substituting them with a single gadget. I was optimistic, considering that several Android phones support SD cards, but as I investigate I discover that there are serious limitations. I hoped there was...

    Lost my UE-10 Pro, now deciding between ACS T1 and Earsonics EM3Pro

    On Tuesday I lost my beloved UE-10 Pro. Close to six years of service... shame on me.   After some reading and investigation, I've restricted the spectrum of choices to the two models in the title.   The reason being that I don't want to deal with cross-continent shipping and customs. UK...

    Closed cans for office use. Budget: Euro 69,00

    A colleague of mine is investigating for closed cans that would allow him to enjoy good music in the office space. They have to be closed, so as not to bother other people and he has preference for a more mellow and bass rich (not too heavy, though) sound. Any good suggestions?

    Crossfade on iPods. Does it exist?

    From what I understand (long time Karma user... experiencing battery problems) crossfade is available only on iTunes, while gapless exists on both iTunes and iPods. Do I understand things correctly?

    Suggestion for headphone stand?

    I'd like a nice stand for my DT 880, sold by some e-shop in the European Community that could ship to Italy. I don't want to spend a fortune, at the end of the day it's a piece of wood/metal...

    Just to be sure... iPods still don't crossfade?

    Do I have this right? I always, always thought that they were only lacking gapless, not crossfade as well...

    Suggestion for clip-on headphones

    A friend of mine is looking to go one step up from the standard headphones he found with his DAP. He would like to have some in the clip on style (with no band going from left to right ear). Something along this line. What's the consensus, if any, on what the best product is in the 40$-70$...

    Good DAC made in Europe

    I'm starting to think of going with Chaintech AV-710--->DAC--->HA-1 Mk II. Only problem is that I can't find good DACs produced in and shipping from Europe. I don't want to pay import duties... Any suggestion?

    Best USB soundcard?

    What would be the best USB soundcard to connect to my HA-1 Mk II, in order to listen to my FLAC rips (with DT-880)? It would obviously have to act as a DAC as well.

    DT 880 are with me!

    I received them from Jan Meier this morning. I'm impressed by their metallic box. Quite classy, in my opinion. I'm now listening to them through my HA-1 Mk II and I like what I hear. Comparison to UE-10 will require some time, as I want to... come to know the DT 880 before drawing proper...

    DT-880 or HD-650? Help me decide!

    Thread title says it all, really. On Hifinesse-shop.de I can get Senns for Euro 289 and Beyers for Euro 195. With almost 100 Euros in price difference... is it justified? Would I really be settling for less with 880 or it's just a matter of sound signature and Senns being more famous...

    HA-1 MkII good for HD650 or DT880?

    I'm considering to buy a "normal" set of cans, and I'm currently undecided between HD650 and DT880. Considering that I would be using a Corda HA-1 MkII to amplify them, does anybody have any suggestion on the best sinergy?

    Dolby Headphone. Is it effective?

    How good is this algorithm? Does it really manage to convey positional audio? I bought an extension cable to use my UE-10 at home, while I play with my Xbox at night. But in this way I totally lose the surround effect. Is this Dolby Headphone really working?

    UE-10 Pro - Acrylic Impressions

    After a month or so of owning my new pair of UE-10 Pro I feel I'm ready to express my opinion on them, compared to my previous "full soft" model. To keep it short. They rock! Everything that I liked about them (plenty, as you can read in my previous review) has remained, but the comfort I am...
