I'm looking for a 2.5mm balanced cable to use with these. Does anyone know where i can find one for a reasonable price?

hi, my full size headphones don't seem to get quite loud enough using the FiiO in single ended output. I know nothing about balanced output. So, can someone fill me in on how to convert my cans to balanced (not XLR) cable to use with the Fiio? Are only certain headphones able to do this or just...

Does the Sony UBP-X700 do 3D as well as HDR to SDR conversion? I don't have a 4K TV (yet).

Some sort of hot spiced tea with a shot (or 2) of rum. If I'm listening to country, then beer from Costco.

Read through the thread and it sounds hit or miss. So, can anyone give a few albums that they have experienced that have GOOD sound quality and/or mastering from HDtracks?

The more I'm reading about the current crop of mid-fi headphones, the more I'm leaning toward adding the Byerdynamic DT 1990 Pro. I think I'll gift the Ultrasone to my nephew and try to get him into headphones at the same time (he's 12). I think the 1990 would be a good compliment to the...

What do you mean I've spent too much? My total expenditure of all these headphones is <$1000. Not necessarily lacking per se but I know there is better out there and looking to scale up. Better bass resolution, clarity, soundstage, etc. Maybe if I find my end game headphones I could get rid of...

I didn't even know that was an option to have my old Fostex modified professionally! I'll check into it. My current DAC/source is a Oppo UDP-205 and a FiiO E10 connected to my PC. I might pick up a Monoprice Liquid Spark to replace the FiiO.

Hi, I have a small collection of headphones and am looking at my next upgrade based on what I already own. My current 'phones are: Fostex T50RP (circa 2012) Senn HD6XX Grado RS1 (circa late 1990s?) Ultrasone DJ1 So, what would you buy with a budget of <$1000 that would fill a whole or be a...

Have you looked at the Shure SRH1540? They are closed back and get good reviews. they retail for right at your budget.

Hi, I'm reading up on this and the D50 DAC. They are basically the same right? Also, using the SU-8 DAC, can i connect the XLR outs to a stereo power amp and connect the RCA outs to a powered subwoofer? Then, the SU-8 would act as a preamp while using the remote to control volume?

Anyone know where I can get some replacement earpads for my vintage RS-1s? My originals are starting to slough off and leave black material all over my ears. Thanks!

I'm hoping to go again this year as I live in Denver. With a new baby at home I won't be able to attend 2 full days like I did last year. From my experience, definitely attend more than one day so you don't feel rushed. A little bummed about all the construction but hey, what can you do. See you...

Going today and tomorrow. My 1st CanJam so can't wait to finally try out some high-end headphones!

I'm very interested in getting a magni 2 über to upgrade my desktop rig. Will connect it to fiio e10 to be used as the dac. My question is: will the magni2u be enough power to adequately drive the Beyer DT880-250ohm? Or should I jump to something like the Asgard 2. Thanks
