    Headphone Stands

    Let me dig this thread out guys. For me the best looking stand is this, but I can not justify the price for that:     Source: http://www.analogueseduction.net/product/Sieveking_Sound_Omega_Headphone_Stand_SO-OMEGA#

    Calling All Custom Headphone Stand Makers

    I know this is an old thread, but I really love that Denon stand. Does any one know if Denon decided to be selling it at all, and if yes, where?

    Guys, so what is an *easy* way of converting FLAC 24/96 to 16/44 Flac? Adobe audition 3 does not support flac, maybe I should simply let Nero do it and burn to CD and then back to Flac?

    Thank you. Purchased and downloaded the HD version, now I am not sure if it was a good choice, as my system is not 24/96 :/

    Modding Logitech Z-2300

    This is very interesting. Does anyone actually know what is inside of the Z-2300 amp? I have got the same speakers, but with different satellites (AIWA SX- LEM70, borrowed pictures below). I would be very much interested if there is anything we could do to improve the sound. I must admit that...

    USB, Toslink DAC/Amp options?

    My only worry about the iBasso is that it will not be as good SQ as the dedicated desktop DACs. Do I have to worry at all, as my headphones are low impedance only. The other option popped out on another forum to use Mini Disk Player as a DAC, these are cheap as chips, but offer amazing...

    USB, Toslink DAC/Amp options?

    It is almost five times my budget, looks good though. I guess that it should not be called a Budget Product of the Year when it costs over 1000 US dollars? PS. I did not mention that I would prefer if the product was available to buy in the UK.

    USB, Toslink DAC/Amp options?

    Hi All, Now it is my turn to ask stupid questions (or maybe not so stupid as I do not know the answers to them). I am in the market for a DAC/Amp ideally with both USB and Optical Toslink inputs with built in headphone amp for my Denon AH-D2000. I have been reading too much and got very...

    Maverick Audio TubeMagic D1 (DAC/Amp) - Condensed FAQ and Info Thread

    If I only had a proper sound card, I would probably use SPDIF, but in my case I need USB. I was looking at Audio gd Fun, iBasso D10, Beresford Caiman and Maverick D1 (which I favour for its price ). I am not sure if it is all worth spending that much of money anyway.

    Maverick Audio TubeMagic D1 (DAC/Amp) - Condensed FAQ and Info Thread

    It is my pleasure too, so many years of not posting, I wonder how did I manage BTW, this DAC/Amp seems to be the best value for money when it comes to features. Does it really sound good, as in is it worth getting it for my PS3 (optical), PC (USB) and Denon AH-D2000 (or Shure SE420)?
