Lets Talk Metal
Quote: Their earlier album Tears of Mortal Solitude is fantastic as well. But it is a bit more doom and bit less black if memory serves. Quote: I seriously love every Opeth album and they all get regular listening. That said, Blackwater Park is far from my favorite.- acolyte289

matrix M-stage vs sheer audio HA-006+
Hehe I was planning on getting a ha-006+ but I come back to check around now that I'm ready to make a purchase and what do you know...after reading around threads for over 3 hours I end up ordering a matrix m-stage. Typical head-fi.- acolyte289

review for Sheer Audio HA-006+ (DynaLo) ?
I'm considering buying one of these to use primarily with my HD600 but I also have se530 IEMs I would like to use with it too. Will 3x gain be enough for the hd600 still or should I just get 11x gain.- acolyte289

Amp3 Pro2 and the STUDIO
Yeah I know about using the up-arrow. My problem is that I like to organize my folder structure as artist/album/ and I like to slowly add to the card and I end up having to just guess which way will scroll me to the artist I want when I get a fair number of artists on it. For now I am organizing...- acolyte289

Amp3 Pro2 and the STUDIO
Problem resolved. Just formatted the internal storage and it was good to go again. I did go ahead and put the newer firmware on it but the card still didn't work until I formatted the internal memory. I had a good 3gb of music on the internal storage. It just stopped recognizing any music on...- acolyte289

Amp3 Pro2 and the STUDIO
My amp3 pro2 has stopped recognizing my 16gb microsd memory card. Every time I insert it, it goes for the initializing screen for a split second then drops back to the storage media screen and when I select external it just says "no file". I have tried reformatting the card and putting a few...- acolyte289

Amp3
Mine had about 14gb (1500 files) on it and the ~8 minutes was from a reset. I took a lot of files off and replaced with flac and now have 14gb with 1000 files and i am getting a 6-7 minute load time from a reset. Loading time not from resetting is usually less than 2 minutes, which is...- acolyte289

iBasso D3 hiss/noise eliminated
So I was messing around with my d3 and found that connecting (sort of) the solder points on the input and output (at least that's what I think I am doing, the pictures will explain better) completely eliminated the noise and buzzing I have been experiencing when using the amp through usb and...- acolyte289
