    Does anyone own the Wyred4sound DAC 2?

      My first rig. LCD 2 rev 2 -> vioelectric V200 balanced out-> cambridge DACmagic with audiphilleo2 usb converter on the way -> MBP. I am looking for an upgrade to a better balanced stand alone DAC. I have my sights set on the Wyred 4 Sound DAC 2 as it sounds like it meshes well with the v200...

    New to Audiofilia, Unfortunate Budget

    hey scottalot. I'm a student too and have been one for a while ( 8 years and counting after high school). I'm a new audiophile as well and I have a relatively pretty expensive rig right now. But I started off with cheap headphones and slowly worked my way up. I have to say there is this concept...

    Also, which one did you buy, the $29 one or the $59 dollar one with the wider curved ridge?

    Burson HA-160DS AC and USB cable upgrade ?

    They're all sold out and I missed out : ( They may be getting a new shipment in mid January. I ended up going with a vioelectric 200 and cambridge magic DAC instead.

    Burson HA-160DS AC and USB cable upgrade ?

    Quote: I bought mine from Fulcrumaudio.  However, Alex at Audeze just emailed me yesterday to let me know that as of last friday "Sonic Artistry" based out of King City near Richmond hill is the second dealer in Canada. Audeze has picked some random stores to be their dealers as this is a...

    Burson HA-160DS AC and USB cable upgrade ?

    I've been saving up a very long time to make my first real splash into headfi and initially bought a sennheiser hd 650 and nuforce icon hdp 1 week ago after weeks of test listening for the perfect set-up and sound signature. The HDP arrived first, but before my 650 could arrive a friend who...

    Audez'e LCD-2 Rev 2 with CEntrance DACmini vs. NuForce HDP

    I am in the exact same boat with the LCD 2's and the nuforce Icon HDP except I haven't received my LCD2s but am wondering if the nuforce will be enough to drive the LCDs. Were you left wanting more Johnzz4 with the nuforce/LCD2 pairing or was it simply curiosity. I ask, because i have a chance...

    Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread

    On a tangential note I am flabbergasted at how well the 650 scales with a good rig, I mean the soundstage alone, completely opens up and adds a new dimension to the music! So I can imagine  how more experienced audiophiles can discern more appreciable differences with better rigs. What a...

    Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread

    Hey Gojo, I just got the 650 last week but had  spent weeks auditioning different amp/dac set ups at around $350 max. Then I heardit with the nuforce icon hdp and I fell in love. I really enjoy sennheisers sound signature and felt like the icon makes the highs and mids a lot brighter without...

    Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread

    4 years ago when I started Medical school in the great white north, I discovered a small audio shop just across the street from me. I walked in, unassuming and naive, and quietly began to browse. The shop attendant looked at me and noticed my white apple earphones around my neck and told me to...
