    Jade II Discussion

    Received the US loaner yesterday. Here are my initial impressions: The headphone is physically very light and fits my head comfortably. The amp is bigger than it looks from the pics. Soundwise, it's different from my Utopias and I need more time to adjust to its sound signature. It could...

    HIFIMAN Jade II Loaner Tour

    I’d like to participate in the loaner tour. I currently live in Los Angeles, California USA. I’ve only heard electrostatics/hifiman gear at noisy meets so would love the opportunity to listen at home with music I’m familiar with.

    :sunrise: Official 2015 SF Head-Fi Meet Impressions Thread

    Longtime lurker and first time attendee to a head-fi meet as well.  I was able to squeeze this in-between some traveling during the month.  It was great listening to a wide range of equipment I would not get a chance to.  I see how hard it is to evaluate stuff due to meet conditions, but still...

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    What I dislike about my current audio setup (desktop Schiit stack):  I don't have time to listen to it.   I spend most of my day at work and spend the rest with my partner.  I just can't seem to squeeze any listening time when I'm at home.  This is the reason why I decided to focus on a...

    2015 Tokyo Fujiya Avic Spring Headphone Festival Report

    Awesome report.  Will need to pay a visit to the actual store if I ever make it back to Japan (WAF pending)

    waiting for Brian Goto

    One thing to keep in mind is that Brian is currently going to college.  He posted on BTG Audio's Facebook page yesterday that Finals are here, so he will be less responsive until after May 16th.   Regardless, I think it would be unusual for him not to respond to any emails since February.

    Analog Squared Paper Discussion Thread.

      No, these aren't available in any retail stores.  A2P is a one man operation.  Each amp is custom built / made to order.   AnakChan has posted a review for both the TU-05 and TUR-06 on this website.

    Analog Squared Paper Discussion Thread.

    Finished reading this thread. Really interested in getting the TU-05 or TUR-06 but can't decide. Quick question for all you electronically inclined individuals. Can I use my desktop DAC as a source using Stereo RCA Y splitter to the 3.5 mm input or should I specifically add RCA inputs on the...

    Review: RIVA Turbo X High Performance Premium Mobile Bluetooth Speaker – Plus Headquarters Tour

    Great review. Really interested in the RIVA X from the CanJam impressions, but the price may be just above the WAF. Hoping the RIVA S fits my price range but can't seem to find any info on it yet.

    Pico Slim first impressions and reviews thread. See p31 onwards for a couple of solid reviews + pics + useful info.

    For old times sake, I charged my Pico Slim last night before I went to bed. When I woke up this morning, the charge light was no longer on.

    Has there been a DAP made without a headphone out/internal amp?

    I for one wish there was a DAP such as this or at least knowing for sure that a line out is not touched by the amp part of it.  I drool over the RWAK100/120-S mods.

    Audeze LCD-2 Impressions Thread

    As an owner of a mjolnir and pre-fazer LCD2, I agree with jodgey4's statement. You don't need to worry about it not being powerful enough.
