Thinking of grabbing the EMU 0404 for dac and amp duties. Will it be powerful enough to drive my ATH-EW9's? ATH-EW9 specs: # Frequency Response: 14 - 24,000 Hz # Maximum Input: 100 mW # Sensitivity: 105 dB/mW at - kHz # Impedance: 29 ohms EMU 0404 head amp specs:- Gain Range: 60dB...

Dunno if I can be arsed mucking about swapping op-amps over and the like. Really just after a simple box I can just plug in and play. Different priorities I guess. Seen an EMU 0404 USB second hand for £100, which is £50 less than new. Seems to be fairly well regarded on here. Is there...

Can't find a price on the HA INFO, got any links? Yeah all low audio, with the exception on a NIN download... KS/WASAPI? Gubbins to bypass the windows mixer? Presume I need a change of playback software? Just how bad is iTunes? Also seen this one: AUNE HIFIDIY.NET Mini USB DAC +...

Cool thanks for you advice. How would you say the KSC35's, PMX100 or iGrado's compare to my current Senn HD497's? Step backwards, similar or better? I also see that the Audio Technica stuff is dirt cheap in the States at present, I may consider importing a pair. I got a bargin A.T. Needle...

First post, so go lightly on me. I'm after some new cans as I've just done a mohawk with my hair and my current Senn H497's don't fit anymore. At least not without ruining my hair and looking daft. Have been pretty happy with them until now, but its a good excuse for an upgrade. I'm not a...
