    I haven't checked head-fi in a while! Good thing I did because I enjoyed last year's Hollywood meet and would love to attend this one as well. Count me in! :)

    H3 Meet Impressions LA 8/18/2012 Thread

    It was a super awesome meet. I haven't been to once since the '09 one which I still have great memories of! I had lots of fun testing out different rigs and talking to a bunch of friendly people. The LCD-2/3s also blew me away since it was my first time listening with them..amazing. Lucky to...

    Turntable Speaker Suggestions

    I got the particular TT that I did because it was entry level and inexpensive. Are there any TTs you'd recommend in which I can really start to hear the advantages of vinyl? I'm not that well versed in this world, but I would like to get more into it, but can get lost in the niche-ness of the...

    Turntable Speaker Suggestions

    So I recently purchased a Audio Technica AT-LP60 turntable and I've been loving it. Usually I hook these up to my mini3 amp and to AKGs or Grado headphones, however sometimes I hook them up to some Logitech computer speakers. Lately I've been collecting some ska, jazz, and reggae records, and...

    Amp for playing Vinyl?

    I have this amp as well, and I really like it a lot. I power it through a AMB mini3 and it sounds pretty good. Drives it decently for a portable amp. I'm in the process of building a MiniMAX tube amp and I can't wait to complete it and then plug it in to see if it adds additional warmth!!  ...

    IEM Suggestions

    My first decent pair of earbuds was Shure e3c, and then after a few years I upgraded to Ultimate Ears Triple Fi 10 Pro. Unfortunately the UEs were stolen from me ( ), but since I've had the sweet taste of the UEs in my head, I need a high-end replacement soon.   My budget is around...

    Advice for a noob: amp price cap $170

    My first amp is the AMB Mini3 and I love it! Well it is still my only amp, but I've listened to many different desktop and portable amps when I have the chance from friends or meets. Anyway, it's a good deal since you can probably find a used one for 100-120ish on the forum, and you can find...

    Ultimate Ears Triple Fi 10 Thread

    My IEMs were Shure e3c, later upgraded to ecl3 by Shure warranty (well, the same), so it was quite the jump! Much better depth, and wow the difference in bass! Plugging into my AMB mini3 is great, drives it more, especially the bass. I recently had a few friends listen to my TF10's and they...

    I didn't jump on the deal till later in the day so the shipping date keep being pushed back. Amazon even sent me an email like "Do you still want to keep this order?" and of course I was like YES!! One of my friends bought 2 and shipped early so he graciously let me have one of his until my...
