Best IEM for a bass head?
Also consider adding the Digizoid ZO2 to your chain. I have one and I really like it. I use it with the SE215s.- davebucklin

Recommendations for decent 30pin to usb cable
You can get official Apple parts from Apple (store.apple.com). That cable will run you $20. You can get 3rd-party cables from monoprice.com. Looks like you could get one for about $6. You can also get this cable from Monster Cables for between $20 and $30. You could also buy a small pile...- davebucklin

Looking for a pair of IEMs under $150, with emphasis on bass?
Consider the Shure SE215. You have to wear them over-ear, mind.- davebucklin

I own both the 770s and 990s. I actually bought them for the same reason you're looking at them. I listen to a lot of tech-house, R&B, and electronic pop. I like bass. I leave the 770s at work because they provide a good amount of isolation which I need to stay sane. The 990s stay at home...- davebucklin

Newby: tube amp for Alessandro MS2
If an amp blows your headphones while you are wearing them, you will have bigger problems to worry about. The EF-5 and Lyr are fine choices. Just keep an eye on the volume knob.- davebucklin

Hello,Newbie Here Asking for Help & Recommendations
The Tasktar HD 2000 is listed as 32 ohms. Even though you shouldn't really need an amp, you could see some improvement. I picked up a Fiio E07 a while back and was very happy with it, especially with the bass boost. I did find that the battery in my iPod Nano drained quite a bit faster when...- davebucklin

From what I've seen, any DAC for your iPod is going to cost about $600. It's a lot of money for something that's not going to make a big difference for you.- davebucklin
