$500 Maximum for IEMs with sound signature similar to OPPO PM3
I'm looking to upgrade from my Shure SE215s and get a new pair of IEMs for commuting. They need to have good sound isolation and work well with mobile devices. My two main sources are my iphone and Fiio X1. Like the title says I am willing to spend up to $500. I own the OPPO PM3s and really...- purpledrank

Jackal Onasis - Big Deal Party. I actually pre ordered this on bandcamp and just wanted the digital download but as a pre order bonus I got a cassette tape. Pretty ******* useless. Love the music though. Nirvana- MTV Unplugged. Enough said. Smashing Pumpkins - Mellon Collie and...- purpledrank

What Are You Listening To Right Now?
Stars by Nina Simone. Bojack Horseman introduced me to this song and uses it beautifully. If you've never had the pleasure of watching Bojack Horseman. Do it, it is on Netflix. It has a star cast including Will Arnet, Aaron Paul, Amy Sedaris and Paul F Tompkins. The main character is an...- purpledrank

How to create M3U playlists for use on the X1, X3 and X5 from your computer
I used dapper on my mac and it handled my playlists and I never had to deal with this crap. I have a Windows now and it seems like I have to do this manually which is incredibly awful. There must be a better way to do this.- purpledrank

Rate The Last Movie You Watched
The Revenant 6/10. Oh man this movie was beautifully shot but a huge snore fest! Nothing is wrong with a slow pace in a movie but something interesting needs to happening to justify it. I can only watch a man drag his bloody broken body for so long. The movie had a great opening and an awesome...- purpledrank

Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread
Which portable amp/dac combo which you recommend to use with the 650s? It needs to be portable and include both functions. LESS than $300 would be ideal. Would plug into a Dell Inspiron.- purpledrank

Sennheiser HD650 & Massdrop HD6XX Impressions Thread
I have a laptop and wanted to know what portable amp/dac combo you guys use with your HD650? I would prefer to have a 2 in 1 in the $200 price range. I definitely need a DAC because the soundcard on my laptop sucks.- purpledrank
