REVIEW - Yulong Audio Sabre DA8 Reference DAC
You have to choose carefully in this price range! No old Esoteric but world class dacs. I hardly think that some owner of Meitner MA1 for example would like to change it for this Yulong DAC after listening on quality speakers. And from second hand it goes for $4000..still expensive but..- not_sure

Why are headphone amplifiers so expensive?
Some is made for profits, Rudistor seems like good example. Another have beautiful design of chasis etc which is sure very expensive like Dark Star, BHSE etc. There is also products with quite expensive parts. And there is also many paymants around which company have to pay costs, fee...- not_sure

Headamp's GS-X vs Gilmore Lite for high-end Grado
I have one question Chefguru. I actualy think brighter Grados like RS1/GS1000 etc. could be super with tubes because at least from what I have listened they have a little higher mids and treble and brighter character. Did you try it on your Leben? But PS500/PS1000 etc. are probably warmer so...- not_sure

Nearfield desktop setup
Be careful on classical Adam's, Dynaudio's, ATC, Genelec, PMC, APS, KRK etc. Don't buy it blindly. Important thing is on these smaller nearfields it is not big sound, you have to find one which will suit their tonal character to you which is not easy find. For price I would recomend you Swans... -

Opinions on GS1000i, PS1000, MS Ulti and Magnum v4 Ulti?
Yes you have truth about HP2 it can be found but I thought HP2i which is pretty rare, even I have never seen them on FS. But this thread is not about these headphone, neither RS1! I am sure RS1 can be unique for certain music but overal I hardly believe there will be on level MS Pro Ulti, Magnum...- not_sure

Opinions on GS1000i, PS1000, MS Ulti and Magnum v4 Ulti?
Hello, I would like to try Grado and I would like to get if possible the best. I can chance listen only GS1000i, PS1000. Others can buy only blindly. I have heard something that possible best Grado is HP2i, I guess almost zero chance find them from second hand. So if there is someone who had...- not_sure

Holy Grail of Head-fi Amps - Isabellina HPA?
Uncle Erik you have sometimes strange suggestions but of course this hobby is subjective so take my reply with great of sald. I can say that Nelson Pass stuffs is only self-styled highend because of price! My opinion is it is coloured and after time I had to really sold it. And from what I know...- not_sure

Review: Anedio D1 DAC - my new reference DAC
The funny is that the headphone amp in the Anedio D1 looks like the most easiest possible from photos, op and hybrid bug about a few components, it looks for a LM..Also volume control in digital, useable is 10-15db and then it is degrade sound it is like volume control in computer :D Also...- not_sure

Audio-gd Reference 7 Loaner Program (USA)
Again the main disadvantage of the Sabre chips. it has firmly implemented ASRC which does not go off and it is for DACs which have the opportunity to have a quality clock a big disadvantage. Sabre reducing jitter of course but not eliminate completely because there are still running ASRC. In mid...- not_sure

HE-6/LCD-2 vs the classics (R-10, Qualia, K1000, Stax, L3000, etc.) Avoid the landmines.
Quote: I think OII/KGSS would be more fair instead of BHSE to compare with LCD2/GS-X. BHSE seems to be bless amp exact made for OII. There is no amp exact made for LCD-2. I'm not trying to say that LCD-2 will be in similar level like your OII/BHSE but who knows, maybe it has potencial...- not_sure

Experience are important and I think it is the main problem here not much comparisons only a big talking about Audio-gd. I will not say what is the best or better dac (it is too much subjective words) but definitely one of the best dac these days is Forssell MDAC-2/MADA-2 no matter on price...- not_sure
