I'm finding I get ear fatigue from my E5 + Dynalo + K501, 580 combination, I think its the amp + E5 combo thats causing it. I think I need some warmth and smoothness to round it out. Do i need some tubes in there?

I'm looking to revise my headphone set-up as its not working for me- Phones at the moment are hd580's amp is Gilmore dynalo. I'm just not listening to them anymore because my hifi sounds WAY better. I can listen to my hifi for hours and never want to stop listening.(I've had my hifi much...

Is their anyway to convert the output of an integrated 60+60watt@8ohm into a headphone amp? or any cheap device you can get to do so?

A couple of questions - Why does burn in help decrease/tighten bass on k81dj's while burn in on 501's makes more fills out the bass - a paradox??? Also with speakers a closed box will give you tighter more exact/articulate bass and vented/ported speakers will have more but less articulated...

I've been waiting for this...This is very cool USB turntable - not sure if it would constitute hi-end sound , but for $139 from Amazon who cares - bring out the vinyl !!! http://ion-audio.com/products/turntables/iTTUSB.html

I have an integrated amp with a dual volume pot and one channel is audible before the other as you turn the volume up from zero. I can't tell at reasonable volume levels but it is annoying for low level listening. What could be the cause of this? is it most likely to be the volume pot??

I'm unhappy with my setup due to the harsh highs and hardness. I have E5 eastsound + Dynalo + HD580s. It sounds better(musical, smoother , more like the Musicians intended it to be, prat etc) through my UM1's than the Senns, musically speaking (the senns are superior technically from an...

Anyone tried these AKG's ??- looking for reasonable priced portable closed can mainly for electronica, these look like they might do the trick.

I've got a Dynalo amp which worked fine until I recased it the other day and now I have a high pitch hum in one channel. It sounds fine in both channels if you wind the volume up, but the hum is a constant sound and volume so is quite audible at low vol. I really don't understand what it could...

Has anyone bought anything from these guys before? thinking about purchasing from them..

I'm looking for advice on a cd upgrade (presently have NAD542). It's the weakest link in my system . Only problem is I reckon having a hard drive based device+itunes +usb+dac makes sense in the long run . But the eastsound cd player looks like fantastic value - so can I get a decent usb dac for...

I've just finished wiring up a Dynalo and it sounds great as it should with my MS1's. But if I swap to Senn 580's they distort at any volume level badly(unlistenable totally). I tested them with the ipod and they're fine. Anyone know what the problem may be?? Cheers
