    Should I upgrade my DAC or Amp first?

    I'm currently running computer audio through Foobar(WASAPI)> Muse Audio DAC (Cheap USB DAC)> Fiio 09k> Beyer DT880 600 OHM or DT770 250 OHM   I've been thinking about getting an Aune T1 but am not sure it will be enough for the 880.   An alternative I've been looking into is the Little Dot...

    Black Dragon vs. Blue Dragon mini to mini

    Is the black dragon worth the extra $25.00? I am using iphone 5 to RSA tomahawk to HD25-1 II. I've been trying to find a decent mini to mini with straight plug, trying to keep the costs down, the only reason I'm not getting the headroom 4" cable is the right angle plug. Any other suggestions...

    beyerdynamic t50p vs ath esw9

    So there are a couple of comparisons in the t50p thread to the esw10. From my research the general opinion is that the esw10 is significantly superior to the esw9. does this mean the t50p beats the esw9? does anybody who has experience with both care to comment? Thanks!

    Best full-sized cans for portable listening

    I am looking for a full sized can to use at the office, school, library etc... It needs to have decent leak isolation but not fully sealed, no Grado, HD5--. I am planning on using it unamped for the time being, but something that scales well would be preffered as I am always pouring more funds...

    esw9 , does it live up to any comparably priced full circumaural phones?

    I was planning on getting a pair of esw9's but i realized i dont need complete isolation and definitely dont mind wearing around full sized cans. Does anybody who has had both think the esw9 is of the same caliber SQ-wise as say, the beyer dt880 32ohm?? Thanks!

    dt880 32ohm t50p or esw9

    I will be using these mostly on the go, unamped out of my iphone 3gs (i am entertaining a portable amp as an upgrade). I will also use them at home out of a mixer or an onkyo stereo receiver from a computer. I don't mind the bulk of the dt880 and i find them really comfy so I would only consider...

    NEW WORK RIG <$1000

    Sup guys,       So I just got a cushy new job with a desk and an office, I'm in there 9-5 and the boss doesn't mind headphone use. My Triple.fi 10's won't cut it because I need to be able to hear people knocking, the walls are too thin for speakers or even open cans. I'm looking for something...

    will ibasso D2 suffice as DAC for desktop amp???

    I have just recently saved up enough to enter the world of amplification. I was thinking of picking up a little dot MK II or III and was wondering if getting a D2 for my portable DAC/AMP will suffice as a desktop DAC, or if I should get a dedicated USB DAC like the Fubar II ? THANKS A TON YOU...

    What is the smallest expandable mp3 player???

    So I just placed a $16 dollar bid for a 2nd gen ipod shuffle, but I have been having second thoughts. I was thinking the other day, hey my 160gb ipod is great for lossless, on-the-go, with alot of selection, but how could I take advantage of portability and the SE530's modular cable design? At...
