I was just perusing fleabay since I've been considering DAC/amp upgrades and came across this.  I can't seem to find much about the DAC, so if anyone with a little more electronic expertise than me can chime in about it I'd appreciate it.  ...

Just when I think I'm done upgrading you guys pull me back in...I managed to fly home and listen to my home setup last weekend which, as nice as it was, seemed a little lacking despite the fact that I've been running portable for the last 3 months. Here are my current options: Option 1...

Just when I thought I'd completely shaken the head-fi bug for good it came rearing back at me. I managed to pick up a pair of LP Sextetts for at a used audio shop near where I'm currently living (I'm in Ottawa for 4 months). The store is great for home audio (Cerwin Vega, small advents, etc.)...

So right now its 1:30AM, I just got home from at friends house from a board game night (Dungeons & Dragons, and I dare you to judge me lol), I'm absolutely exhausted, have eaten 4 frozen quesadillas (I cooked them of course) and should be in bed because I have a band practice which will wreck my...

Hey all, So the cord on my super.fi 3's is starting to get unbearably stiff (I have the old L-Jack cord) and I'm considering changing the cable however I've run into some issues/options and I'm looking for advice. -I can get a new UE cable from Soundearphones.com for ~$30 CAD, but it has...

Hey guys, I love the sound signature of my super.fi 3's but the cable is starting to detach from the drivers too easily and rather than purchase a new UE cable (with the accursed straight jack) I figure this is a good excuse as any to upgrade. Basically I listen to a variety of things (The...

Hey everyone, I'm just bored waiting for my girlfriend's delayed flight to come in so I figured I'd spend some time and write a mini review. Background: So it's boxing day, my dad got a Zune - his first MP3 player - for christmas and hates earbuds. I found PX100s on sale at the Futureshop by...

Is it just me or does it seem like IBasso is cornering the portable amp market these days with a portable for most applications? I mean in the Sub $250 category they seem to easily be a favorite here on the site and I've noticed much less talk about other amps than the IBasso lines. Most...

Hey guys, I'm just currently considering picking up a pair of closed back portables for my breaks at university since its starting soon and while I do have my super.fi 3's I'm finding IEM's becoming increasingly more uncomfortable the longer I wear them which used to not be the case...

Hey guys, I'm currently in the market for a ~$200 Portable Amp/DAC to use with my laptop on the go and while I've done a search and read nothing but good things about the Leckerton UHA-3, I noticed alot of the posts on impressions aren't too recent... So my question is how does the...

Hey everybody, been lurking for a while but need some suggestions for an upgrade now. And yes, my wallet hurts already. Currently I've got the ATH-A700s. Love them to death, but my ears are itching for more. The lowdown: I almost use my Cowon X5 exclusively to listen to music, I don't run...
