    Gustard Amplifiers and DACs

     ​Quote: Thanks, BassDigger, I checked into this yesterday, and like you said, there's not a whole lot out there.  To tell the truth, I knew that jitter was a problem for USB connections, but really wasn't aware that optical signals were plagued by it too.  I did a fair amount of research...

    GUSTARD H10 High-current Discrete Class A output Stage Headphone Amplifier

    You had me at "upgrade"!  Though my grad student budget is quite strained after my recent purchases...I do like the sound of giant killer!  Are you using the stock op-amps?

    Gustard Amplifiers and DACs

    Hello all, I recently purchased an H10 amp (still on its way!) and will be using a source of a macbook pro to a schiit bifrost through its optical connection.  However, BassDigger suggested in the other Gustard thread an upgrade to clean up my digital signal to maximize my listening experience...

    GUSTARD H10 High-current Discrete Class A output Stage Headphone Amplifier

    Thanks guys, I'll definitely provide a comparison.  I've never posted a review or my thoughts on how things sound, so this will be fun!   I will have to say that from what I've gathered the WA6 does not provide enough current for planar magnetics such as the LCD2's, as it only puts out 550mW...

    GUSTARD H10 High-current Discrete Class A output Stage Headphone Amplifier

    Hi, everyone! I just ordered the H10, as well as a set of LCD2f's, so I guess it goes without saying how excited I am!  I guess this is kind of a meaningless post, but I just wanted to say that I'm now apart of the H10 club and will be excited to post my impressions!     Hopefully I don't have...

    Amp recommendations for Audeze LCD-2

    Thank you all so much for your feedback.  I took a year of physics in college and remember ohm's law, but I definitely need to brush up because I find matching an amp to a headphone to be tricky business!  Anyway, I was doing some research into the WA6 manual, and the output looks like it does: ...

    Amp recommendations for Audeze LCD-2

    Hi all, I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on me about how powerful of an amp the LCD2f would require?  I am going to be obtaining the LCD2f hopefully soon, and currently have the Woo Audio WA6 amp.  From reading older posts about the LCD2 and LCD2.2, I was under the impression that...

    Ultrasone Pro 900 Impressions Thread

    Hey everyone, I have had a weird love/hate journey with the pro 900s. When I first got them, I got them at the same time as the HD650s. I listen to primarily rock and classic rock, so I immediately loved the 650s, and hated the pro 900s. I burned them in, but I always found them too aggressive...

    I've found that when listening with the pro 900s the bass overpowers the mid sections too much. So I end up having to turn up to near full volume to hear everything, and this results in fatigue too quickly. I have hd650s and I can listen to those bad boys for hours. Maybe the ultrasone sound...

    Does anyone know how the p51 sounds with the ultrasone pro 900s? I am hoping that it would improve the midrange on the 900s, but I've never seen anyone explicitly make that claim.

    1964 Ears

    Hi everyone, I am looking for some advice on whether to get the quads or the triples. I have been reading up on the differences between the quads and triples, but I just keep going back and forth. So I really need someone to make this decision for me! I enjoy bass, but I would not say that I...

    Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread

    Hey everyone!  I'm relatively new to the head-fi world.  I've had my hd-650's for a few weeks and was absolutely blown away by them even with an old NAD integrated amp.  My Woo Audio WA6 just came today, and I can't imagine a better sound than this.  I have a bifrost on backorder, so I can't...

    Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread

    Has anyone heard the HD650 with the Schiit Asgard?  I just ordered both of them, and I was wondering if I should have maybe gone with the valhalla or something else?  The reason I got the Asgard was becasue I read that it was good for both high and low impedance headphones, and I also have the...
