    Hello Folks. It has been a long time since I posted in this forum... Can you please suggest a good headphone amp for my system?

    How do I get the Chaintech AV-710 to do digital out for surround?

    I am simply unable to get the 5.1 setup to output any center or rear channel sounds to the receiver. I am using the digital out, ac3/pcm autoselect option and am in 5.1 mode in the Audio Dec. I am using the 5.12 version of the Via drivers. WHen I try to test the speakers from the speaker...

    Not very impressed with Stax US importer

    I had emailed them requesting to know what places in New York or Miami Florida I could possibly go to to audition the Omega headphone.... Inspite of my sending two emails, I have not heard back from them. Given the cost these sell at, rather disappointed at their sales staff.

    Perreaux problem: Anything I am missing? Known issue with new amps?

    Hi. Just got my new Perreaux SHX1, happily powered it on, let it run for a few hours... and put on my HD650 just to sample the sound.... Problem: The right channel seems to have a 'fuzz' sound that only comes on when there is music. That is, the amp is totally silent when there is no music...

    Where to auditon/buy Stax?

    Anyone know where I can buy/audition the Stax range of headphones? A series of auditions has led me to think that I do NOT like the tactile bass of the Sennheiser 650. It makes my ears fatigue way too fast. I guess this means Stax electrostatics MAY be the way to go... hence the question...

    Anyone compare similar priced amps from Ray Samuels and Single Power?
