Sony NW-A50 Series
I'm having trouble with the connection between my amp and the NW-A50 as it keeps cutting out after a couple of minutes. I've checked the amp on the old iPod and it's fine but that uses a cable from the iPod charging socket to the amp's 3.5mm. Does anyone know where I could get something similar...- InsideTM

Headstage Arrow HE: Reviews, Impressions, Perceptions & Sensations
Gutted about the closure although not that surprised. So it turns out the battery in my 4G is fine - seen as the problem only started when I switched DAP I put the arrow back on the iPod and it works fine. Current best guess is that it the arrow doesn't like the 3.5mm to 3.5mm I've been using...- InsideTM

Headstage Arrow HE: Reviews, Impressions, Perceptions & Sensations
Thanks so much for that Anderoan, thought that might the case with easily replaced bits from what I remember when I got this one. Such a shame about Robert, it really is an excellent piece of kit. I've asked this on the recommendations board but what would be the best alternative in case mine...- InsideTM

Portable amp to replace Arrow 4G - give me subs!
Yeah I was desperate for the isolation when I got them as my desk was near a load of really chatty people at work! Admittedly I still love the sound and when you add base to those mids on a good vocal dnb track they're incredible.- InsideTM

Headstage Arrow HE: Reviews, Impressions, Perceptions & Sensations
Was thinking that myself but have absolutely no clue about electrics! Does the arrow use a common one / can it be done easily (for someone who knows what they're doing) or would have to be returned to Robert?- InsideTM

Portable amp to replace Arrow 4G - give me subs!
Hi All, After many years of excellent service my Headstage Arrow 4G might be dying 😭😭 I love this amp for various reasons but the bass boost is beautiful for well defined sub bass and I'm looking for something to replace this - what do you think? Any replacement will be paired with a Sony...- InsideTM

Headstage Arrow HE: Reviews, Impressions, Perceptions & Sensations
Does anyone know if Headstage are still going? I've been using my 4G for years but I tried the website recently and it seems to be down. The reason I was looking at the website is I'm having some trouble with it. I've just switched from an iPod classic to Sony NW-A55 but now the Arrow just cuts...- InsideTM

Sony NW-A50 Series
Has anyone used the A55 with a Headstage Arrow Amp? Or does anyone have any preferred EQ settings for Drum & Bass / mellow dubstep? I've previously been using an old iPod classic with the Arrow 4G but the iPod died so I've ordered an A55 but am trying to find a bit out before it arrives. If it...- InsideTM

DAP recommendation
Thanks for posting this, I'm at a different/less expensive stage in my journey but know the feeling of dilemma well. Hope it's not cheeky / bad form (will readily delete if so) but do any of you any experience of the M11 Vs NW-A105?- InsideTM

Bowers & Wilkins P7 - over the ear headphones
Good point thanks, I normally use a line-connector between the ipod and amp and hadn't thought about that. The only reservation I'd have is whether the line out gives a better SQ than a 3.5 - 3.5mm connector - will give one a go and see if I notice the difference. Will also keep digging...- InsideTM

Bowers & Wilkins P7 - over the ear headphones
I recently got a some P7's and although I really love the sound I'm finding them a bit loud even at the lowest settings when played through my amp. Does anyone know a good inline volume control that's not smart phone specific? I'm using an iPod classic through a Headstage Arrow 4G and...- InsideTM

Recommendations on a Closed back Over ear for EDM and punk
So far I've had the bass up to 2nd setting on the 4g but that may be because I'm desperate for a bass fiX and still not sure on my preferred sound Sig. Been experimenting with the treble settings, two seems too harsh but may use it at one. I should also stress that most of my listening has been...- InsideTM

Recommendations on a Closed back Over ear for EDM and punk
Starting to agree with the good response to EDM - played Deceived by Future Prophecies (quite complex Dnb with lots of elements and frequencies, my default testing track) earlier and very pleased. Looking forward to seeing how/if they change as I get used to them. Also getting some good response...- InsideTM

Recommendations on a Closed back Over ear for EDM and punk
Well, went in to the shop yesterday and ended up with the P7. Initial impressions are very pleasing indeed - I got the immediate and substantial satisfaction I never had with the 535's. Starting to realise I may be a basshead - went straight up to the max boost on the arrow and now just looking...- InsideTM
