    VSONIC GR07 Impressions Thread

    Just got my new GR07 BEs w/ detachable cables from LMUE. They're site says 2017 but after emailing them asking what are the differences, they said 2017 and 2018 models are the same and they will be sending the 2018 version. Sounds like marketing by Aliexpress. I previously had the old candycane...

    = HiFiMAN HE-560 Impressions & Discussion Thread =

    Just curious, what are you using to power them. My V2s are coming soon and I'm not sure yet if my magni 3 stack will be good enough. I was looking at possibly selling and getting the Jot, as I've heard its better. I'm not the best at amp/dac pairing

    Magni as preamp for powered speakers?

    Hi, I have a pair of powered speakers but I am not sure what to buy to help with the volume control. I heard the magni 3 can be used as a preamp? I was thinking of buying the magni/modi to be able to control the audio and use the headphone amp in it as well. My question is if magni can be used...

    Equipment setup for active speakers? Fostex hp-a3?

    I am having some problems finding information on what sort of equipment i need for my active speakers. Do I need a preamp or DAC? I have a pair of jbl lsr305s that I want to use as computer speakers and can connect to TV. Would an amp help with these? I saw some have headphone amps in them to, I...

    JBL LSR305 DAC Configuration Switching Devices

    I just bought a pair of LSR305s that I want to use as the audio for my PC, but I would also like to be able to use it as the audio for my TV as well. I originally planned to just manually change the cables as the TV and PC are close-ish enough. I have been told there may be a better way. There...

    Non-audiophile reactions to high-end headphones Part II

    Are MDR-ZX100s considered high quality audio? Always thought they were cheap, bad sounding headphones. Maybe its just the price.

    Need DAC with Amp for Ipod Touch 16gb

    Its in the title. I am looking at either the E12 or E17. I am wondering do I need a DAC if I run the E12 with an Ipod Touch or will the E17 be better over the Ipod's DAC. The benefit I see to the E17 is that the DAC can be used with my pc to bypass the bad soundcard I have on my old motherboard...

    Portable Amp. Fiio E11?

    Ugh now I may go back to the E17. Do I need a DAC? It seems I may. I definetly do for my PC as my sound card is bad, but eventually upgradable with motherboard. Do I need it for a mobile device like an Ipod Touch. Btw thanks for the help

    Portable Amp. Fiio E11?

    It doesnt seem too big in the pictures I find, even next to an Ipod. Well not big enough to be that much of a problem. Leaning toward it

    Portable Amp. Fiio E11?

    Its hard to tell in that guide which ones are amp and which have a DAC too. Still a hard decision. The E11 looks good but you think the increase in price for the E12 is worth it? The review says it lacks soundstage which is really nice to have. Im look to pay around 150 ish max, any suggestions...

    Portable Amp. Fiio E11?

    God this made it even harder to decide lol. So many options for the sub 100 and the sub 200. Is it worth getting a amp/DAC combo? Does the DAC quality suffer at all?

    Portable Amp/DAC vs Soundcard/Amp

    How is that DAC on that compared to a normal DAC. Does the usb aspect make it produce less quality? I wouldnt want to skimp on it to have to replace it later.

    Dedicated Sound Card/Amp Questions

    I was actually looking at the E11. Is the E12 worth the price increase. Read the E11 does have battery issues which is a red flag.

    Portable Amp/DAC vs Soundcard/Amp

    Ok so I think I want a DAC. What is a good one that can be paired with a portable amp? I am looking into getting a portable amp as well, possible a Fiio E11, but could use help with amps as well.

    Portable Amp. Fiio E11?

    I am looking to get a portable amp for my vmoda m80s and vsonic gr07 BEs and am looking at the Fiio E11. Is this a good amp that I can use for future upgrades as well?
