Ampsandsound Kenzie/Mogwai Impressions
Just dropping in my review of the Mogwai SE which I picked up back in June. Not my first tube amp, but it is my first SET. My experience can easily be summed up in one word: magical. From the extension, the imaging, to the textures and tone it produces, pretty fantastic. The amount of power...- mbayaq

Edit: Nevermind. Interesting to see others have the same results. My guess would be a copy / paste error on the product page.- mbayaq

Nio product page as of today: Notice the connector end is totally different. Looks like I got the professional cable in the box.- mbayaq

This wasn't in the silver cable box, it was in the Nio box itself. It's not the cable shown on the website for the Nio: https://www.64audio.com/nio-universal-in-ear-monitors#inthebox- mbayaq

Did anyone else order the Nio directly from 64 Audio and find it came with the professional in the box rather than premium cable? Which is not what is pictured and described on the product page? I'm pretty confused right now.- mbayaq

Does anyone else get the issue that they cannot turn their DX150 on if a microSD card used for music storage is inserted? I have to remove it, turn it on, then reinsert it.- mbayaq

iBasso DX150. Dual dacs and interchangeable AMPs. **NEW Firmware that supports AMP9! ** New FIRMWARE 1.05 Dec 30.
Update: Lurker0's SD card method for upgrading from 6.0 to 8.1 worked great! Thanks again! After this, the recommended method for updating to firmware 1.06 from iBasso via SD card worked eventually as well, and now the AMP9 works! So far, loving it compared to the stock AMP6. For others, I...- mbayaq

Gotcha. Thank you for confirming! Time to *legally obtain* Windows, install it on a VM, and cross my fingers in order to update the Android version on a DAP... wait what? :wink: Update: The above did not work. Nothing happened during the step, "Press and hold the play button of the DX150, then...- mbayaq

This might be a dumb question and I might have missed it in this thread, but is there either a non-Windows or over the air / SD card method to upgrade the DX150 to Android 8.1 so I can then perform the SD card firmware update? I have the DX150 and need to update it to use the AMP9 with it but...- mbayaq

Best "mastered" albums of the decade?
Quote: Mono produces 'perfect' imaging and avoids many room response problems introduced by stereo (your playback room is different acoustically than the room an album was recorded in, and this causes many problems for stereo playback). To wholly discount it is shortsighted. I'm not saying... -

Best "mastered" albums of the decade?
Quote: I don't think you understood my post. I never said it never happens, just that its rare. Which is why you shouldn't automatically assume vinyl will sound better than a CD unless you actually know it has a different and superior mastering job. And I never 'discounted' his... -
Best "mastered" albums of the decade?
Quote: Unless you have evidence that the vinyl is actually a different master than the CD (which is expensive for a label to do and actually quite rare for any album made in the last 20 years), then you are hearing the same master on a different format. The differences you hear are... -

Should I sell my M-Audio Sonica Theater?
I recently bought a M-Audio Sonica Theater 7.1 USB soundcard for $55 on eBay to go along with my new laptop. I will be using it mainly to pass DD/DTS signals to a home theater reciever through the digital coax out. I will also periodically be using my headphones with it for some TV...- mbayaq

AV710 Bass/treble adjustments?
not to derail, but where do you find those caps for $7? Digi-key has them, but has that wonderful $5 charge for orders under $25. Also, what capacitance and voltage would you reccomend for the AV-710?- mbayaq

Which volume to put at max?
Right now, I have my computer hooked up to a homemade volume control knob (with a 1k ohm potentiometer, log taper) and that is connected to my KRK Rokit5 studio monitor speakers. Now, the speakers only volume adjustment is a fine tuning knob on the back that can go from -30db to +6db. The...- mbayaq
