Recommend me neutral IEMs under ~220 USD!
Thanks for the recommendations guys. The Pinnacle P1 may have some build issues, some reviews and pictures on reddit show that the cable unwinds at the housing, as well as the finish wearing off very easily. Of course, it could just mean those P1 owners don't know how to handle IEMs. I just...- Egaku

Hey there, Yes I have looked at the Pinnacle P1. I was debating on either the Pinnacle P1 or ATH IM02. I don't recall where, but I read that the finish on the Pinnacle P1 peels and scratches easily.. if anyone reading this owns a pair, can you please confirm?- Egaku

Recommend me neutral IEMs under ~220 USD!
Hello, I'm looking for some neutral IEM recommendations. My budget is ~220 USD. I do not own a portable DAC/AMP yet, it is not a priority right now. I have a decent setup for home use (HD600 w/ Audio-gd FUN), but I've been using cheapo Sony earphones that came with my phone. I used to...- Egaku

Is this right?
Just had an epiphany.. LOL If the optical cable itself carries a digital signal, surely the digital-to-analog conversion happens at the end opposite to the source (motherboard) right?- Egaku

Is this right?
Hello, I have an Audio-GD FUN Amp/DAC combo unit, and was wondering if the Audio-GD does the DAC conversion, or does Realtek do it? Excuse my lack of knowledge regarding optical devices, I was just confused why Realtek Digital Output(Optical) shows up instead of something else.. For...- Egaku

Desk Lamp interfering with desktop amp
Hello Head-Fi, Everytime I turn on my desk lamp (fluorescent I believe), my Audio-gd FUN amp dies and sort of "flickers" for a few seconds and USUALLY fixes itself (sometimes a power cycle is necessary). They are connected to the same outlet, and sometimes the outlet makes buzzing...- Egaku

Mysterious clicking noise in left channel
Could it possibly have to do with the delay? What I mean is, there used to be a delayed click when I powered the device on.. but now it just clicks immediately after I power the device on. Someone help please!- Egaku

Mysterious clicking noise in left channel
I'm using it with headphones, I dont have speakers to try out right now. I found that powering off and on the device gets rid of it, but sometimes introduces the noise to the right channel, or even both.- Egaku

Mysterious clicking noise in left channel
Hey there, I've been noticing a low repeating pulsing noise (the sound is similar to that static you get when plugging your headphones in) in the left channel of my Audio-GD Fun Version A DAC/AMP. I am using the device via USB. After some tinkering around, I have found that the pulsing...- Egaku

Schiit Vali or Audio-gd Fun?
Has anyone compared the two? I'm looking for something that accentuates the vocals, but doesn't introduce sibilance. I'm loving my HD600s with my audio-gd right now, I'm just curious about the tube sound. Are there ANY cons of the Vali at all? I read about the relay problem on the...- Egaku
