I currently have a Fubar and Cute Beyond rig that I use with my DT990/600's. I have been considering a "sidegrade" to a Essence STX. Do you think I would be losing a lot of sound quality by doing this or do you guys think I would be ok. My other question is can you use the analog and headphone...

http://www.tanga.com/products/techn9ne-ruffian-skull-earphones   Only 27.00 bucks and you get to look that awesome and look at the coffin box!   Is this worse than Skullcandy in your guy's opinions?   Edit: I'm not skullcandy bashing, but they are the only thing I could compare to...

So I just got a 7th gen Ipod classic and what I want to do is be able to carry that as opposed to cds in my car. I have an fm transmitter but am bitterly disappointed with the sound quality of music on it, podcasts sound ok, but music is horrid. Would getting a LOD help with this at all or...

I have searched around but have not been able to come up with a definitive answer, only the "tubes are better" argument presented for the Beyers. I currently have a Cute Beyond and a x-head and was wondering if either of these amplifiers would do the job of amping the 990's fairly well. If not...

I recently sold my Constantine+ as I have found myself not using my headphones with my computer and only with my cd player/x-head. I liked the Constantine with my AV40's but I couldn't justify keeping it just for those speakers. My question is would I be better off regrouping and getting a dac...

I was pricing out some headphones today and came across this little gem. *working on fixing the photo issue hold please* Bah, I cannot figure out how to link to my flickr so you'll just have to deal with the attachment

I saw this on reddit today and though you all might be interested Click Here for the Instructions Sorry if this has been posted before, but it is new to me.

I have a Constantine USB plus and a pair of M-Audio Av40 speakers and an AV-123 x-head. Here is my problem. Whenever I have the dac running straight to the speakers I get a weird kind of noise/distortion when music is not playing. When I run the dac running to the x-head I get no distortion. I...

I am simply curious which you guys think are more comfortable, please only submit your vote if you have owned both.

I am looking for a switch box that has one input and two outputs but I have not been able to find one, could anyone point me in the right direction other than DIY.

I currently have a MHDT Constantine plus and a pair of ad-700s. I am thinking about buying an amp under $250. Would I see more benefit from buying a new pair of cans ala AD-900 or from an amp?

Would this be much of an upgrade at all or am I making too small of a jump. Should I be looking at something like a keces 151 for my next jump, or should I invest in a better pair of can's first(currently using a pair of ad-700's and a pair of JVC 700's). Thanks in advance for your time.

I have had for awhile now a pair of ad-700's and a hotaudio bitperfect usb dac both of which I enjoy very much. I mainly listen to rock and metal and my budget is under 400 at this point. I was wondering what the next logical step would be for me to take at this point in improving my setup?

Would this be a good match for that DAC and that pair of cans?
