Roll call: Indians staying in India, interested in high end headphones/IEMS
I'm selling a self-built Bottlehead Crack with stock tubes in Hyderabad as I going to be moving to the US next month and am unable to take this with me. Please PM me if interested. I will not ship this anywhere considering there are tubes involved and I don't want the hassle. Thanks!- shubhangam

Good luck with the HD650s. They are beautiful. I broke down and ordered a Bottlehead Crack kit yesterday. Let's see what better amplification brings to the table.- shubhangam

HD650s with no amp/dac. How out of luck am I?
For what it's worth, I have been using the HD650 with an Fiio E10 DAC/AMP worth <100$ for the past year and it works pretty well. Maybe not as good as the big amps (I don't have a reference), but the Fiio drives it pretty decently, I generally listen at vol 4~5 and going all the way up is...- shubhangam

Looking for some recommendations
Thanks for the suggestions, your suggestions I see in 2 categories mostly, half I already have and enjoy (not top of the list though) and the rest I've tried to get into but find way too HEAVY.. I don't know why, but I cannot tolerate the heavy metal stuff at all, it gives me a headache :(...- shubhangam

Any math geek here?
I'd think the lower line is y=x^2 and the upper boundary line is y=x^(1/2) Thus we could think of the box as a 1by1 box, integrate the difference of the functions from 0 to 1 and get the area of the black portion. 1-area would be area of white portion. ! (I think, im not very good at...- shubhangam

Oh and I would heartily suggest the whole Call Of Duty series, also Company Of Heroes I found to be really good.. Some Unreal Tournament too. Diablo 2 is a must (horrible graphics though)- shubhangam

How much better?
I think you should upgrade your headphones before your amp. It should give a bigger difference AFAIK.- shubhangam

Phonak PFE to UM3X?
It is my experience that the PFEs improve amazingly when upgrading your source. Here are what I tried and how I perceived them - iPod Touch 1g -> PFE (hp out) : sounds good, a bit thin and bass lacking iPod Touch 1g -> E5 -> PFE (mini to mini cable to e5) : sounds slightly better, a bit...- shubhangam

Phonak Audeo (PFE) Thread
As I said earlier, I have an ipod touch 1g, I got the E5 and a LOD. So, to begin with I used PFEs direct with touch. lets say there was a good sound. Then I used the touch->e5->pfe using a 3.5-3.5 IC between the touch and pfe. there was a very slight change in sound. I can't call it an...- shubhangam

Phonak Audeo (PFE) Thread
I got the E5 and a cheap LOD and wow.. the sound of the PFEs has gone way up! The improvement was more by using the LOD than the E5 itself IMO. The sound is now "fuller" and bass is more prominent and "fun". I don't know if its placebo or real, but wow I'm impressed! With the new...- shubhangam
