Best portable headphone amp-DAC
I have the mojo and iDSD BL but I recently listened to my buddy’s Hugo2 and I was absolutely floored. It’s a pricey piece of equipment no doubt but I’m on the hunt to find one in the classified. Even if it means liquidating some stock to make it happen. Just my two cents but it definitely tops...- Whisky Warrior

Audeze SINE Series
I don’t know about aurvana but Vesper Audio’s ear pads for the Sine are great construction and a decent price with tons of customization options. They make over ear pads for them which help with isolation. Worth checking out. Every pair is handmade though, so expect a lead time of a few weeks to...- Whisky Warrior

Audeze LCD-2 driver failures
I would definitely reach out to Audeze and see what they can do for you, even if a repair isn’t free, they may do it for a discounted price. Or at least at a price that justifies not tossing a pair of 2s away.- Whisky Warrior

Audeze Mobius Review / Preview - Head-Fi TV
Non-sequitur: I really enjoy my mobius headphones. But I wish they had some sort of amp bypass that allowed me to use my other amps with them, I feel like they would benefit from it. That aside, for Bluetooth and convenience sake, I love them compared to my other headphones/IEMs. The head...- Whisky Warrior

Portable DAC/AMP suggestion to power HEX V2
It will serve the purpose for both at home movies and music at home and on the go. I suppose, last resort, it could be desktop or non-portable but I like the idea of giving her options.- Whisky Warrior

Portable DAC/AMP suggestion to power HEX V2
Toslink is fine. Or if an adapter is provided like with my IFI DSD BL. Her vizio only has standard optical out and rca connections. So I don’t mind getting adapters to make things work. Just seeing what decently priced and performing options out there are. If I can find a gently used DSD BL in...- Whisky Warrior

Portable DAC/AMP suggestion to power HEX V2
I realize that they don't take much to drive as far as the amp is concerned but my family member plans to use them for watching movies as well as music. So I guess one of the requirements I forgot was either an optical in or RCA in as well.- Whisky Warrior

Portable DAC/AMP suggestion to power HEX V2
I have recently purchased a set of Hifiman Edition X V2 off a member here as a gift for a family member's birthday. I have some time before their birthday and was thinking of getting them a portable DAC/AMP to go with it. I just wanted to get some ideas, maybe under $300 or so. I am open to...- Whisky Warrior
