Foobar2000 skins
Alright, I'm pretty familiar with foobar2000's components, the problem is I didn't find a place that hosts updated skins/themes. Even deviantart's #Foo-Nation is slow in updating. I'm looking for a clean interface, something like this, but with a little more functionality: ...- whitemonkey

The Xonar Essence STX Q/A, tweaking, impressions thread
I just wanted to thank DEX85 for helping me out with opamps for the Xonar ST. I'm using my Xonar to output to my Heed Canamp and through my K701. I have tried 7920NA in the buffer, and there was already an improvement in sound quality over stock. Then I tried 7920HA in the buffer, oh...- whitemonkey

Juli@ vs 1212M vs Xonar ST
Actually I purchased the Xonar ST this morning, I listened to it for a few hours today. Its a pretty remarkable card. Sound quality is actually much better than what I had expected (I didn't expect much of a change in the first place and was just trying my luck). In my opinion it is better...- whitemonkey

Juli@ vs 1212M vs Xonar ST
Quote: "Does not support 64-bit or Vista." *EDIT* Whoa, I just checked the prices for the newer Lynx, they're insanely expansive where I live. Will the soundcards in my original post make any noticeable improvement with my system?- whitemonkey

Hello Head-Fi :) I need your help, I want to upgrade my soundcard but I don't know which one is better. Currently I have my ESI Juli@ which had served me quite well for the last couple of years. I'm not going to get an external DAC, so I'm looking for an internal solution. Which of...- whitemonkey

do the hd280 need an amp?
Hi! I'm searching for isolating headphones that will block outside noise from coming in. I've read that the hd280 are very good at that and are very well in my budget. One question though, do they need an amp? I'm looking for a solution that wont require an amp.- whitemonkey
