    Shanling UA5 - Next step in our portable USB DAC/AMPs

    @Shanling, thanks so much for posting beta drivers for us to use. Works perfectly on Samsung S22 Ultra. The connectivity issue prior to the drive change was a little discouraging. I was regularly checking the shanling site until I stumbled on this post. Sounds fantastic and allows me to use...

    Linux users unite!

    Moved from Arch a couple years ago to Linux Mint. I had ran the same Arch install for years & the install lasted longer than the original hard drive it was running on. That's a large part as to why I like rolling release distros. But, I didn't have the time or maybe desire to continue to...

    DIY Cable Gallery!!

    10' Extension Cable. I've not made a cable in awhile and I can't see as good as I used to up close, so, it was a little harder to do. :) I tried a naked cable this time too. I've seen others do this and decided I liked the look.   Amphenol Right Angle TRS Plug w/ Neutrik Locking Jack. The...

    The IEM/Portable Headphones Deal Alerts Thread - Closed! Use the Deals Thread III instead.

    That's a very good deal on the A151. I don't "need" another IEM or I'd snatch this up.

    $103.00 w/shipping. I've been watching this thread since they went on sale for $125.00 before Christmas I think. You definitely got a good buy IMO.

    Quote: Wish I would've saw this before I picked up an openbox M80 on ebay. Could've saved a few bucks. Oh well.... I'm looking forward to trying these.

    Linux users unite!

    Archlinux user for 6 years +/-. Fluxbox / Openbox on Video & Music Servers and Gnome 3 on my laptop. Hated it at first, moved to KDE & then came back to Gnome. I've gotten used to it and like it now.    I haven't tried FVWM that I can remember. I think I'll give this a try.

    Klipsch Image X10 for $94 (usually $350)!!

    I'll give this a shot today I think re: heat shrink. I love the X10's so far, but, they do seem a little fragile.My thought was to use red heat shrink on the R and black on the L. It would be functional but I think it might ruin the looks of them.   I really like the clarity of & vocals are...

    Thanks guys! I just snagged the X10's for $85.00 at Amazon. I've been watching this thread for a few days hoping to find something new to try. I have the Mee A151's so not sure how these will compare. We'll see.... :D

    MEElectronics M6 Review

    I just picked up a pair of M6's from Newegg w/free shipping for $16.00. Figured I'd give them a shot. Hopefully, they'll be okay for when I'm actively doing something, but, the microphonics comment is making me wonder. Oh well, I'll know soon enough...
