Dared MP-5 Headphone & Integrated Amp with USB DAC
When I bought this amp it was going to be for my desk, headphone use first and speaker use second. After reading what a great speaker amp it is I bought a pair of Boston Acoustics CR57. I found them to be completely lacking bass and lifeless with no soundstage. Discouraged, I asked, in this...- Melletron

Ever tried cleaning er6i foamies?
Great! Thanks, I was about to order some myself. Do they seal as well as before? Are they still as comfy?- Melletron

Ety ER6 vs. ER6i, noob questions, etc....
For me the ER-6i is one of the best deals on the planet. Real audiophile grade phones. The Xin Supermini III has been redisigned and is now the Supermini IV. I hear that it sounds lightyears better than an already superb Supermini III. I'll be getting one soon. Congrats on your purchase. Etys rule!!- Melletron
