I thought folks might be interested in a useful virus free utility to download media files en masse from an url. The utility is called youtube-dlg and is available on github https://github.com/MrS0m30n3/youtube-dl-gui . I used it to download a pbs movie for instance that was free to watch.

I thought I might try my hand at soldering a few banana connectors and make a custom 30 ft speaker cable(s) for my office setup. For the effort I figured I would use a higher quality cable but can't seem to find anyone who sells in bulk that doesnt charge almost what they would be terminated (I...

I want to start by saying I have been a professional in the service industry my entire career. I know what good service is and in todays world it is sorely lacking. I had an issue caused by MY hardware and the folks at Small Green Computer worked with me for a month to get it working supplying...

Great buy on some roon compatible HW

I Swear i saw this on headfi but since i cant find it and it worked for a 1.49 cd which is being delivered to my house for free I thought I would post (re) Bestbuy Link .

We will be having a local meetup at Blink HighEnd in Cambridge at 1:30 on saturday 11-11. Blink will be hosting us in their new studio on the 4th floor. Parking may be an issue but I think we are in for a treat. We are currently tracking about 14 people to attend. Please let me know if you...

I have Beyerdynamic T5P gen 2's which I originally paired with a FIIO X5II and have recently upgraded to an Auralic Taurus mkii, altair and vega. I am looking to take advantage of my new setup and circle back and upgrade my HP. I've done a lot of reading on this site and am focusing on these...

I want to use 3 pin xlr's to connect my auralic taurus to an auralic altair. I am curious should I get a 6in or 12in cable(s) to connect them? I don't have either unit yet and wanted to pre purchase the cables. Both units will be stacked on a desktop and I don't want too much excess wire...

I have a moon neo 230had and mind 180 for work that i love so much that I am trying to recreate a similarly functioned desktop system at home. I was looking at the altair/taurus as packing the most value for the $'s. While price is not the limiting factor I'm not running out and buying a dave...

The instructions say this works with the internal player but will it work for use with the tidal app as well? When I switch the player over to otg usb audio, I get the player all right but no sound switching to an app like tidal. Any help is appreciated, thanks,

So I probably will get flamed for saying this but I recently upgraded to a lynx hilo and purchased an onkyo dp x1 last week for the balanced out and tidal app functions. I wanted to take advantage of the balanced sound processing and bought the beyerdynamic balanced headphone cable which...

I haven't really seen this asked before. I notice lots of high quality amps/dacs/combos lack coax in. I want to use my FIIO X5ii as a transport into a higher end desktop amp/dac for work. I bought a lynx hilo and love it so much I'm not going to take it to work and am looking for another one...

I'm at 256g on 2 128g's and am almost out myself.  Still waiting for the card price to drop a little more before I upgrade but if you need the space this is not bad for todays pricing.  https://www.massdrop.com/buy/samsung-256gb-micro-sdxc-evo-w-adapter

Hi wanted to introduce myself, I'm Lou from the east coast of the US.  I have a question regarding the FIIO DK1 Line Out.  I am using a FIIO X5II with the docking station and wanted to continue to listen to the headphone jack on the X5II (just not use line out on the DK1).  I can't seem to...
