    Good source suggestion to hear music in bed :-)

    Thank you all very much. I also had setup a little RPi with another audio oriented distro (cannot rem now) plus an ipad for the web interface and it worked just all of that was a bit clumsy ;-) For example when you finally decided sleep was unto you you had to open an SSH client and shutdown...

    Thanks a lot. But would the iTunes/Music app play bitperfect on that interface ?

    Good source suggestion to hear music in bed :-)

    Dear friends, I have a little combo I love: my ODAC+O2 combo and my Mad Dog headphones.   I use this attached to my iMac with the Audirvana player to listen to my mostly ALAC collection via iTunes as the front end (for covers, tags ratings etc.).   Because of my current life I don't have...

    Please help me, brain melting, unable to choose: IEM for isolation and sleep

    At the end decided to go for the Meelectronics M6 plus Comply foam tips and when the latter are well fitted the bass comes out beautifully and I really enjoy these inexpensive IEMs.   Thanks !

    What's your fav cable to link Sansa Clip/Fuze to Altoids/CMoy ?

    This looks good but if there was one even shorter I'd go for it. Thank you very much !

    What's your fav cable to link Sansa Clip/Fuze to Altoids/CMoy ?

    Dear friends, I bought a very decent cable for this but it's so stiff and short that the little Sansa player sticks out far from the Altoids can :-(   Is there any better idea for a cable that is short enough and mayne "U shaped" with 90 degrees 3.5 connectors to hold the Sansa close/stuck to...

    Please help me, brain melting, unable to choose: IEM for isolation and sleep

    Oooops sorry, found the model for Comply for the M6 (not for the EPH-100) on the Comply website :-)   They list the T-200 as the proper model.   I'd be considering the Comfort or Comfort plus models. Is the "wax barrier" of the latter a) useful b) really acoustically transparent ?   Most...

    What Comply plugs models would fit the M6 buds ? (I live in Italy and use amazon.it for buying this stuff and there's a lot of different "models").   Would those same tips be beneficial also for the Yamaha ?   Thanks a lot to everyone for the suggestions.

    Please help me, brain melting, unable to choose: IEM for isolation and sleep

    Thanks so much for trying to help. I had stumbled on those reviews and was a bit worried about the "Ear fatigue/uncomfortable" and "weak cable" feedbacks (both of which could be a problem for my desire to wear them to fall asleep). Also the design looks it protrudes quite a lot from the ear or...

    Please help me, brain melting, unable to choose: IEM for isolation and sleep

    Dear friends, the more I read reviews and find deals on amazon or ebay, the more I am unable to decide :-( I really need your help.   I am looking for an IEM, budget up to 100 (but if there was a gigantic step in quality could stretch a little) to be used in two different settings:   a)...

    Rockit Sounds R-50, a few questions

    Read favorable reviews of these IEMs which are in my budget range (around 100).   Not having the possibility of trying them would like to know two opinions:   a) Would they be bearable to use them in bed lying on a side (how much do the protrude) ?   b) My fav genres are classical piano...

    iPhone 4S with iOS7, CCK, what else ?

    Dear friends, I am very happy with my little home rig (iMac -> Audirvana ->ODAC+O2 combo -> Mad Dogs) and would love some reccomendations for a portable rig.   I have an iPhone 4S with iOS7 and read that via the Camera Connection Kit I can get the digital signal to an external DAC.   On the...

    What is causing this weird noise at the end of a sweep ?

    Ok I think I have interesting results.   It seems it's an aliasing problem and shows why using a good player like Audirvana DOES make a difference.   Here's a great web page to test:   http://www.audiocheck.net/audiotests_aliasing.php   If I play both the 44.1 or the 48KHz sweeps in my...
