Truly around ear closed headphones
I definitely enjoy my Akg K553 pros, and they are usually available on Massdrop. I swapped in Brainwavz HM5 pads and wired in a 3.5mm headphone jack to allow for a removable cable and they've been a great pair to use daily. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using Tapatalk- rarrior

Question about how to export FLAC files from either JRiver or PONO and then drop them into a google folder to share via email or some other means with others.
Just upload your source folder for all of the music from your library to Google then share that folder with anyone you want to. Should work in theory, unless Google limits that sort of thing since it can probably recognize music files. Zipping the folder would help as well. Sent from my...- rarrior

The iBasso DX50 Thread - Latest firmware: 1.9.5 - June 30, 2016
I'm having an issue syncing my RockBox'd DX50 with JRiver Media Center. I'm currently on JRiver Media Center 22 and any time I sync I still get duplicate files on my device. I often like to listen to albums at a time and the most recent one I tried (Florence & the Machine) all had duplicates in...- rarrior

New Dragonfly Black and Red Discussion
That's kind of the reason I wanted to get the Red in the first place is for room to grow later. I'll think about it, thanks for the recommendation. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk- rarrior

New Dragonfly Black and Red Discussion
I'm looking at getting the new Dragonfly since I never pulled the trigger on the old one. I have a Galaxy Note 4 I plan on using with it as well as AKG K553 Pro's. Would the Black be sufficient or would I always be left wanting more for the Red?- rarrior

Android phones and USB DACs
Read one of the reviews on here and he paired the OPPO with the Note 4 and said it worked really well. Once my DX50 sells I'll be purchasing one. I'll let you guys know how I like it.- rarrior

Android phones and USB DACs
I'm looking at switching from a dedicated DAP and using my phone (Galaxy Note 4) with a DAC/amp, preferably a DAC/amp combo as opposed to separate devices for each as I would like to keep it portable. I'm looking at the Oppo HA-2 and am wondering what experience, if any, others have had with...- rarrior

Pictures of Your *Mid-Fi* Portable Rig ($200 - $600)
The only thing else I really want is a pair of openbacks, otherwise I'll be content for a while. (I know, I know, famous last words) The DX50 is great, it has it's flaws though (like any DAP), I bounce back and forth between Mango and Rockbox. Rockbox is great because of the customizability...- rarrior

Cheap Portable DAP
The Sansa would be something of comparable size and features but definitely dated. If you wait for the FiiO M3, you won't be disappointed.- rarrior
