    Help? Brainwavz Betas right earbud stopped working.

    I had the same issue with my Betas, but after 5 months of regular use.  Annoying but the shipping cost back to MP4nation in HK from NY only cost $3.

    FiiO E17 "ALPEN" - First Impression + Final Thought

      1.  Yes, just get a L7 cable.  I'm doing that now with Audioengine A2 speakers. 2.  Yes, it bypasses it.  Although I can't really tell a huge difference, optical allows you to select high gain (+12db), while USB limits it to low gain (+6db) Quote:

    FiiO E17 "ALPEN" - First Impression + Final Thought

    I'll still new to this, but after receiving the Miles Davis from Monster and pairing it with E17.  I'd have to the soundstage got 3x bigger and the instrument separation is just so much clearer.  It is making my music feel alive.

    Monster Miles Davis Tribute thread

    Just got these in the mail today...the packaging is better than anything I've seen before.   The White Gel Supertips are the most comfy for my ears.  Feels like it can stay in my ears for hours without noticing it.  Didn't like the silicon tips that was already on it by default.  Man, music...

    FiiO E17 "ALPEN" - First Impression + Final Thought

    I have a macbook pro, E17, L7, and Audioengine A2 Active Speakers.  I really love the sound coming out of the A2's a lot more when I go just use the E17's headphone output, instead of using the L7 to bypass the E17 amp.  However, I read that it would be better to use the L7 because the A2...

    i get that too, wonder if it's because my iphone has no reception in my building so it was on Edge.  it sounds just like those speakers from the old days that are not magnetically shielded. Quote:

    FiiO E17 "ALPEN" - First Impression + Final Thought

    Just FYI - To switch to 96/24 on Mac OSX, go to Audio MIDI Setup.  Took me awhile to figure it out.   Just got my E17 today, and I'm so happy with it!!!  This is my first DAC/amp, and to have it portable too is oh so important for me.  The sound sounds much sweeter, soundstage has improved...

    Initial Impressions: Brainwavz HM3

    For someone who's never owned better headphones before, that's quite an unfair statement.     I find the quality and comfort of the HM3 very good.  For $40, you can do a lot worse.  I used to have the B&W P5 ($299), but the cable broke in 2 days.  At least these cables are quite thick.  ...
