Monsoons on the Bin Wall
I found a pair of Monsoon speakers on the bin wall. They may or may not work, and I only found the two satellites. In addition, the two satellites are terminated in 4 pin din connectors. I guess I have to convert that to RCA or PHONO jack. Any tips on that? Do you think it's worth it trying to...- duke11235

~50 dollar Neutral Monitor IEMs with Good Isolation/Comfort
I'm looking for a good set of budget IEMs with a tonally balanced, clear, and neutral sound. I'm planning on using these while doing homework, so I need good isolation and comfort. I've read about the ThinkSound MS01, but they are a little bit more than I want to spend. I'm also not planning...- duke11235

Headphonia USB Dac Stick + Headstage Arrow 12HE vs iBasso D10
Has anyone compared the two? I'm leaning towards the arrow due to crossfeed, variable impedance matching, and high power ouput. Anyone care to give a comment, as a review seems scarce of the combo.- duke11235

Role of a Dac/ Pairing (Accidental Duplication)
I currently own a pair of Beyerdynamic DT48E and I really like them, but I use my computers soundcard as my source and my Macbook has slight white noise. As I understand it, a DAC would use the digital out on my laptop, thus eliminating the noise from my analog soundcard. Is this a correct...- duke11235

Beyerdynamic DT880 Pro 32 or 250 ohms
I chose the above headphone, but I am wondering how good an amp you would need to drive it? Would the cmoy, or headroom airhead cover it? On headroom, it said the 32 ohm version had slightly more bass, so if needed I could EQ it down, but if the 250 ohm version sounds so much better...... Could...- duke11235

Good Neutral(Preferably Closed) Headphones
I've spent a bunch of time looking around, and I've kinda failed to find a versatile closed headphone. I prefer neutral sound, no emphasis on any any particular set of frequencies, a wide sound stage, and something that can play jazz or rock equally, preferably with a wide soundstage. I guess it...- duke11235
