Good evening ladies and gentlemen, I am in the search for a portable amp and am seeking recommendations. I appreciate good sound although I can't say I have golden ears. Most of my music collection is in the iTunes plus format and with my ears, I could not differentiate the difference between...

Hello everyone!   I'm sure this is somewhere, but I couldn't find it and I don't want someone else to make the same mistake that I did.  The Schiit Modi 2 Uber wall wart does NOT negate the need for a USB hub when plugged into an iPhone or iPod, etc.  I paid for the upgrade specifically so I...

Hello fellow head-fiers!   I live in the Seattle/Bellevue and am looking to purchase a pair of JH13 or JH16.  Unfortunately Jerry Harvey doesn't have any demos he can sell me and I have a real hard time spending that kind of money without listening to them first.  If anyone in the area has a...

So here's the story. After a couple of years of listening to my Shure Se530 I left them on my return flight from NYC back to Seattle (some lucky SOB probably found them). With that said I need a new pair of IEMs. I do love how the 530s sounded but since I'm getting a new pair I figure I'd get...

After reading for countless weeks what to get and what to do so far this is the setup I have. Home: Macbook (256 VBR AAC) to Grado SR225 Portable: iPod Touch (256 VBR AAC) to Shure Se530 I use the lossy compression because to be honest I A/B'd between AAC and Losseless and I can't tell...

Hey guys. Where is the cheapest place to pick up a new pair of Sr60 (non i). I've heard a lot of people talking that they are being clearanced out but haven't really found a place that will go below 10% MSRP. Thanks in advance!

Sorry to beat this topic to death. I've searched and searched and can't really find what I'm looking for. I've listened to both the SR60, SR80, SR125 and have found that they are as you have described. I have not listened to the MS1. Where the SR60 are awesome headphones for the $70 price...

Hey guys. I currently am trying to compile a healthy stock of headphones so I can listen to them all and narrow down what I like. I have a good idea of the BA IEMs that I would like to have, but my list for Dynamic IEMs is much shorter. This is what I have so far. 1. Sennheiser IE8 (IE7, IE6)...

Good morning. I discovered you guys a couple days ago and have spent two days reading what I can only describe as a hurricane of knowledge. However, after reading as much as my eyes can handle I am at a loss to what course of action I need to take. Here is my situation. I recently acquired...
