I recently converted from OS X to Arch Linux with KDEmod4 and now Arch with Openbox. Everything is running amazingly, however, I have yet to get my iBasso D10 to work through my Macbook Pro 3,1. How can I set up Arch and ALSA so sound goes through the normal laptop speakers until the DAC is...

Thanks, turns out you were right! I had already checked that by switching the cable but, of course, the other cable I was using was broken as well . Any recommendations on flexible, short, and inexpensive cables?

So I've been using my iBasso D10 as both a home (temporarily) and portable DAC/Amp and it's been working great, however, recently it is very unreliable in listening to music through it's line in port. It sounds like there is no lower frequency sound at times, and others times it will only work...

D10s have arrived! I do have the iPod Touch and will get on posting pictures as soon as I have a camera available (I can tell you that they both fit in one of my jean pockets so it is rather small).

Well, my amp and headphones have both arrived! The D10 is a very nice portable DAC/Amp (especially if you want optical input) and does sound great with the HD650s. However, I don't think that this is a permanent setup and I plan on upgrading the DAC and Amp as soon as I save up more money...

Ordered a D10 on Saturday, came yesterday but I missed them. Should be coming today though (took a "sick" day from school ).

I am going to use the D10 as a temporary amp for my 650s (neither have arrived yet but I should have them by tommorow) untill I get a more powerful amp for home use. I'll post when I get both of them to let you know how it sounds.

JR is definately the best place. Just ordered mine this Saturday and they are going to arrive tommorow (unfortunately my amp has not even shipped yet so I can't really drive them )

Most of my peers (I'm 15) just listen to MP3s because that's the normal way to do things. They have no idea what 128kb/s even means nor do they care. The majority of people at my school where iBuds in one ear, listening to music downloaded from Limewire, and give the other bud to a friend. I've...

Hi, I'm somewhat new to head-fi and need some advice I just ordered a pair of HD650s for home use and along with that, I ordered a D10 Cobra as a DAC/Amp. I was wondering if the D10 would be enough to power my HD650? If not, I'm going to upgrade my system this Christmas and I would like some...
