    Just for your information I have provided a study demonstrating in vivo harmful effects to sperm count from just 8.8 microtesla of EMF exposure. And that was just in a short period of time.

    Is the Sennheiser HE-1 dangerous for your brain?

    TCMS Medical devices don't sit on your head 5 hours a day/7 days a week either. Although the HE-1 is probably not a good choice for an everyday headphone.

    From Sennheiser's website: "The relentless pursuit of perfection brings with it a uniqueness. Thus, the Sennheiser HE 1 is the first electrostatic headphone with a Cool Class A MOS-FET high voltage amplifier integrated into the ear cups. Eliminating the capacitive reactance of the cable...

    Is the Sennheiser HE-1 dangerous for your brain?

    Hey guys, I am thinking about getting the Sennheiser HE-1, but I am a little bit concerned with the fact that its amp is built within the actual headphones. There are medical therapies such as transcranial magnetic stimulation which are now known to be able to stimulate nerve cells...

    Best ear pads material?

    Hey guys, I have a HD600 that needs an ear pads replacement and I am wondering whether to pick suede, velour or leather version. I remember the original ones were comfy, I also tried the velour, but the velour for some reason soaks so much skin fat that it becomes really really nasty after a...

    Noob question: How to connect a DAC + AMP setup?

    To be honest I feel a bit lame about having a setup with two amps in it (redundancy), but I was told that it's increasingly uncommon to be able to find a DAC that doesn't have a built-in headphone output nowadays.

    From what I understand the Hugo built-in amp won't be anywhere near the level of the GS-X mk2 however, and is single-ended output only

    Noob question: How to connect a DAC + AMP setup?

    So let me see if I get this correctly. You install the volumio distro on an embedded board like rasperry pi and basically stream your music via the network and this is done so that your music is played from a source with significantly less electronics than your PC/notebook on it with the main...

    Noob question: How to connect a DAC + AMP setup?

    Well I was toying with the idea of getting a turntable, but I really want to play my own playlists and have more control over the audio flow (repeat, shuffle, mixing different albums and authors etc.). What other source should I consider, some portable player? What kind of XLR cables would you...

    Noob question: How to connect a DAC + AMP setup?

    Thanks guys. Is there any additional equipment I should get to make these work properly? Like some special cables or what have you? Also is it okay to place the DAC on top of the AMP on my desk (or the other way around) or is this going to cause some interference or something like this? Cheers.
