    Sennheiser HD-58x vs HIFI Man Sundara.

    I just upgraded my headphone amplifier to a Marantz HD-Dac 1. Current headphones are Mass 58x. Would the Sundara or Mass 6xxx be an upward move. I listen mostly to rock and have never heard planers. Thank you.

    Second Set

    Looking for a second set of headphones for about $50.00. Philips SHP9500, AKG 240 or AKG 92 are my interests right now. Music is mainly rock and amplifier is Schiit Magni 3. Any comments or other suggestions?

    Chinese Made Headphone Amps

    Has anyone had experience with Chinese knock-off/copy headphone amplifiers, specifically the A2's and Krell KSA5's seen on eBay. They appear to be well made with quality parts. Is it worth the chance to try them or would it be throwing money away?

    It has come down to these three: Home Headroom ($170.00): Creek OBH-11 (modified to class A) $170.00: or Yulong Daart Canary ($225.00). Headphones are Massdrop 58x and music is mainly rock. Any thoughts?

    Magni 3 vs Musical Fidelity X Can v3

    I recently purchased a Schiit Magni 3 and it is a fine amp. However, a Musical Fidelity X Can v 3 just came up for sale at about the same price. Would the MF be an upgrade or a lateral move? Tubes have always intrigued me. My budget is less than $200.00. Any other suggestions are welcome. Phones...

    Sennheiser IEM's

    I'm thinking of entering the iem realm. I assume it will take some getting used to, having something stuck in my ear. Anyway, I've pretty much narrowed my choices to two Sennheiser's; the Momentum in ear or the IE60. Recommendations are solicited. My budget is $75.00 at most (ebay prices), if...

    Hifiman HE-400i or Sennheiser HD-650

    My current headphones are Sennheiser HD-555 driven by a Yulong Daart Canary. I believe it sounds very good (the Daart Canary is an overlooked gem, in my opinion). I am, however, thinking about upgrading my headphones. I'm looking at the Hifiman and Sennheisers. My musical tastes are rock and pop...

    Topping TP-30 vs. Topping VX1 vs. Fiio E10k

    I'm considering the purchase of a USB Dac/Headphone Amplifier. The choices have been narrowed down to those seen above. Price is not a factor as they are all similarly priced online. I will be using the equipment for internet radio listening only for the time being. The associated headphones...

    Necessary Headphone Listening

    Unfortunately, apartment living now demands that "critical" (loud) music listening must now be experienced via headphones. I have a decent set of headphones, Sennheiser HD-580's. I am currently listening to them through the headphone output of a capable Audiosource Amp One. But I feel something...
