Is it safe to assume that you can replace the xo parts with same values but better parts to improve the sound of a speaker? I've got a set of Morel Renaissance Duets and I'm trying to get a better balance between mid and high freqs. I actually love the tweeter performance (I should as it's...

Are there any canners out there have use this as there can amp? I recently acquired an SF Line 1 and love it - almost as good as my Quicksilver Remote Linestage but with waaaay more features. I'm just getting into cans - currently have Sennheiser HD-280's, AKg K81DJ (modded with Homegrown...

TTT - I'm not comfortable proceeding without just a lil' help. I'm getting no sound from touching the leads of the new/stock cables to the exposed driver's solder joints. I have the stock cord hooked up to my laptop as the source running right to the open cans. The stock cable is from...

Thanks guys. The 770 cable you describe is very similar to the stock Beyer cable on the DT700's that I'm trying to revive. The other cables I have are stock AKG DJ81's - I purchased some modded/recabled DJ81's (which I like very much but they're just a tad too small on my massive melon)...

Bueller? Bueller? Bueller? I did post in the right forum didn't I?

TIA, need to know before I ruin my spare set of cables. Thanks, Angelo

Dee Dee Bridgewater - This is New (this is an amazing CD!) I love the recording on Dee Dee's albums. One of my faves is Live at Yoshi's @ Jack London Square. I've caught a few live performances there and this album is a testament to the recording engineer's talent. I can almost feel as if I'm...

then I should have all of these in my grubby lil' paws this afternoon: Beatles, The Beatles'65 1968 Beatles, The Let it Be (with poster) 1979 Beatles, The Magical Mystery Tour 1969 Beatles, The Meet the Beatles 1976 Beatles, The Revolver (black label colorband) (copy 1) 1966...

Beyerdynamics? This will be my first time soldering headphone cables. I wanted to know if there are specific soldering tips for cables of such a high AWG? Will I need heatshielding clips etc. etc? I'm somewhat hamfisted and even though the cans are pretty much toast already, I thought...

power cords to try out on the citypulse. I've got a Signal Cables pc and the tried and true volex in 2m length. I'm really excited about the dac. I'm also thinking about picking up a sonic frontiers sfd 1 MKII and a pac valves modded diyeden gm from a local for sh!ts and giggles. The SF...

that with it's dynamics and somewhat strident presentation this would mate well with a full tube rig? Again, this is my first venture into ext. dacs but it seems to be a steal for the money in stock form and great with the upgraded clock. I'm not sure which camp I'm in yet for NOS...

I'm really interested in your thoughts on this DAC. Not very well known outside of the head-fi community (at least from what I've found). Would really appreciate any opinions vs. the benchmark dac1, the MSB link III, PT P3a with modwrigth level II mods??? Please let me know...just would...

Hi All, First foray into ext. dacs and I just purchased a used unit on a leap of faith. The unit I purchased is supposed to have the upgraded clock already built in. I'm just trying to get a feel for the da7.2 as the initial posts were for comparos vs. other similarly priced dacs i.e. the...
