    AKG K240 Sextett--Grado'd AKG?

    Dusted off my Sextett (can't recall what version) and RS-1 (button version) for a quick listen. I think the only similarity between them is their (relatively) forward sound presentation. Their tonal color differ significantly, especially in the mids and highs, where the Sextett has more syrupy...

    Selling my beloved pair of Sennheiser HD-600. I have barely been listening to it (life and hobby change). The HD600 has been mostly sitting on the shelf with the occasional use. Selling it so someone can more properly derive joy from it. Comes with a 10ft/3m Oehlbach cable (no stock cable as...

    Topping D90

    I admit I have been out of this game for too long I can't actually tell if upsampling is good or bad. Also, are you saying the ECD-1 has detail or is lacking?

    Topping D90

    Lol thanks. That put a big smile on my face. :) So I take it you don't think the D90 is worth trying out (it's relatively expensive for a Topping product).

    Topping D90

    Thanks. I don't have a ton of experience with DACs but I'm quite aware the ECD-1 is up there. Only reason I want another DAC is to downsize (and not lose any SQ). The ECD-1 takes up space on the table (too wide to fit on the shelves) and prevents me from upgrading my monitor (speakers have no...

    Topping D90

    Electrocompaniet ECD-1 user here. Looking to replace the ECD-1 with something smaller (and at least as good-sounding, if not, better). Currently using the DAC with my PC (SPDIF via M2Tech hiFace Two), connected to speaker system (Topping PA3 -> Epos M5) and headphone setup (Graham Slee Solo...

    Coaxial output soundcard

    Thanks for the list. The E-MU has seemingly revived but a slight nudge on the coaxial cable connected to the card will send the PC into a crash. I will still treat this card as on its way out and look for a replacement (as well as finally moving fully to PCIe card). My DAC unfortunately is an...

    Coaxial output soundcard

    Hi all, My EMU 1212M (PCI) has finally died after 12 years of service. I am in dire need of a replacement. The EMU was setup in this manner: PC -> EMU -> Electrocompaniet DAC (via BJ Coaxial cable) -> (Sound systems via analog input). I'm looking to spend up to AUD$150 (less is better) to...

    Classis Grado RS-1 - Need replacement earpads

    I decided to buy the comfies (to quarter mod) and the bowls (to tape mod). The flats were great but, to be honest, I never really could listen very long to these due to the bass. Surprised at the lack of response. Maybe my question was just too open ended. All good though. Cheers.

    Classis Grado RS-1 - Need replacement earpads

    Hi all, The flat pads I had been using on these have disintegrated. It lasted an impressive 12 years. Sadly those are the only Grado pads I owned and so I need a replacement pair badly. I would like to hear from fellow members which pads have worked for you, especially on the RS1. Currently...

    PCI(/-e) card for SPDIF out (Windows 10) that does not resample

    Never mind. Reinstalling the driver and Patchmix (the 2008 version) seems to do the trick.

    PCI(/-e) card for SPDIF out (Windows 10) that does not resample

    Hi all, A recent upgrade to Windows 10 results in my current PCI 1212m automatically resampling 44.1KHz music files to 48KHz. Attempts to set the playback sample rate at 44.1KHz either in Windows settings or Patchmix yielded no success. As this card is EOL, there are no recent driver files...
