Hi Headfi As I discovered that the old good yuin pk2 is now difficult to obtain. Long story. Curious?. Please read my thread. I am looking for recommendations to earbuds with similar voicing. I have already been recommended shozy xb which looks interesting.

Just received new yuin pk2's from ebay. I have owned a lot as they brake. This new pair sounds off and doesn't have the same white logo as the old ones.See picture Are they fake or did Yuin quality drop ?

I am looking for a combined dac-amp with a warm and somewhat dark sound. I guess a little like the Naim sound. It doesn't have to be super well resolved or refined. The most important thing is it fits my tonal preferences. I borrowed a Beresford caiman from a friend and while the bass and...

       

So I figured the easiest way to re-cable Yuin pk2's would be to buy a pair of a different make and steal the cable   But it's hard to judge cable quality based on pictures.   The cheapest I can find i my country (Denmark) is. All around 14 USD:     Maxell EB 125 Abeier ACEJ-1705...

  Hi Headfi'ers   I have been listening to a set of Grado sr60 for some years now and decided it perhaps was time for something better. I sink most of my money into full rage hifi so I initially didn't want to spend too much on new headphones. I guess that has changed  Thought it would be...

In my hunt for a decent DAC I auditioned a few including a Wadia 12 (http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/494089/dac-testing-not-much-difference) which after a little guidance I found to sound quite good. However the Wadia 12 wasn't for sale.   Now I have been offered a Wadia 26 for about...

So I have been auditioning DAC's for the past 4 days. Have these in house for the time: Wadia 12, lavry DA10, Stello DA100 sig, Digital Audio Denmark ADDA 2402 and a M2TECH (USB to Coaxial) on folowing system: PC (winxp) Foobar asio out -> EMU 0404 pci ->  Coaxial out -> DAC -> via XLR Primare...

So I have been reading a ton of pages regarding dac's Have had my eyes on the stello da100sig for some time until the guys at the NAIM forum started raving about the Lavry da10. There it is described as warm, smooth and yet detailed sounding. From reading threads at headfi.org the stello...

So I have been reading a lot to find a decent cheap headphone dac/amp. Hard to find info. I'm especially interested in learning more about the the EF2A upgarde as many find the volume to low on the EF2 which should have been fixed with the EF2A ? Only versus info I could find is quoted...

Hi dear Headfi experts. I was originally just going to buy a new soundcard and was contemplating the Asus Xonar d2X as I also game a lot. But I do listen to a lot of music by my pc. The whole dac + amp + different opamps is perhaps a little too much for me so I discovered that it was...

Quick question: Is the stello significantly better than the DacMagic ? In my country (Denmark) the stello is about 3½ times more expensive I need input from people who have auditioned both. I auditioned the DacMagic. Found it good but a little behind my old cd player Arcam 8se. Hence I...

So I have been reading long long threads about the 1212M card and the 0404 USB. I'm having a hard time finding an answer to my dilemma. My purpose for the card/usb is the best possible DA conversion from my pc to my amplifier. I don't care about inputs, headphone amp etc. Only DA conversion...
