Schiit Asgard 3 - Impressions Thread
All-in-one would be awesome, but I need an optical input, so the module is out for me. It does seem like Asgard 3 with Schitt 4490 is a great combo though.- gdpeck

Schiit Asgard 3 - Impressions Thread
Thanks for the info. I know I could do Asgard 3 Modi multibit for the same price as Asgard 3, Modi (4490), Loki, but it just seems like having the Loki around might be more fun. Primary headphones are HD6XX and current dac/amp is dragonfly black & Corda Headfive (I keep amps I like around for a...- gdpeck

Schiit Asgard 3 - Impressions Thread
Great review! Is your Modi3 multi-bit or 4490? I'm looking to upgrade my desktop DAC / AMP setup and am strongly considering Asgard 3 / Modi3 (4490) / Loki.- gdpeck

Need New Jogging Headphones
Over-ears that are durable enough for running might be tough to find in that price range. My all time favorite running phones have been the Sennheiser MX685 earbuds. They meet all your requirements, except for over-ear. I've logged over 2000 miles running and a few thousand miles cycling with...- gdpeck

New Dragonfly Black and Red Discussion
I honestly haven't done much a/b 'ing with the DFB. I have had it since April 2016, and have mostly just enjoyed it without comparing much. My sense was that everything sounded generally better and more musical. Just now I did some quick a/b test of a couple of songs. These are both streamed in...- gdpeck

New Dragonfly Black and Red Discussion
You can actually get a little bit more granular control if you use the volume slider on the control center as shown here: I have a DFB and the built-in steps using the volume buttons are pretty big jumps. I mostly listen with pretty efficient headphones though such as NAD Viso HP 50 or...- gdpeck

Good review of a very interesting product. I know these are designed for stage musicians, but do you think they would be a good fit for non-performing situations where isolation is detrimental for situational awareness? I'm specifically thinking about suitibility for outdoor excercise, where I...- gdpeck

Bicycle-Fi!
Hi All, Just found this thread, so I thought I would share a couple of pictures of my rides: My road bike which is a 2013 Specialized Tarmac SL4 Pro. This picture was taken in January of 2015, and I haven't made any significant changes to the bike since then. This was my first nice road...- gdpeck

Review and discussions - Audioengine D1 24/96 USB and Optical DAC/amp for laptops and computers
Sorry, I can't help you there. I have no experience with that DAC or those headphones. I like my D1, but really mostly use it for speakers.- gdpeck
