so i think i've decided on the SMSL DL200 for my DAC/AMP . but i need something to power my 2.1 desktop setup in our bedroom . i have a powered velodyne CT120 sub that still works perfectly and a pair of JBL arena 120 speakers on my computer desk . i'm certainly not a uber hifi'er with golden...

Seen a 8 page thread on it @ ASR ad it gets high praise there . Has anyone here tried it yet or have any thoughts on it ? Thanks Jeff https://www.smsl-audio.com/portal/product/detail/id/838.html

soooo my fiio K7 is supposed to be here tomorrow but since ordering it i've found comments on their support on this forum (and other places) that i'm not happy with so i'm having buyers remorse before i even have the dang thing in my paws . i was considering the atom stack and schiit...

i do listen to music but most of the time these will be used for youtube and movies/TV with a small amount of gaming here and there . i've alway used EQ to boost highs and lows but i'm not a bass head ..... and i guess that means i'm not a true audiophile either , hahahaha . but i do want...

been looking at these two for whatever new headphones i get . at this point the hd560s or tygr 300r seems to be what i'll most likely get . anywho ....... the magni+ has about twice the power but that's a non issue with what i'm now considering and %99 of most HPs FWIU . the magni+ is discrete...

looking for info on this HP amp https://drop.com/buy/drop-smsl-ho150x#overview is this one of the super clean amps that have great numbers , but lack in quality ? any idea how this would sone compared to a magni+/atom+ or the thx amp section of the fiio K7 ? thanks , jeff

i'm considering the refurbished ananda stealth and the edition XS . i've found a few comments on the reliability of HM headphones and headband issues on the headband style used on the anandas and some of their other higher end headphones . is it just a few folks here and there or is it enough to...

i'll be 62 sept 3rd and i know i don't hear sparkly highs like i used to . i've been using shp9500 for 8-9 years now and i've never REALLY liked them . i'm looking at referb ananda , refurb edition XS and refurb ananda stealth and i'm %95 decided i'm gonna use the schiit magni+ (discrete) to...

i have a android phone and MEE M6PRO's , i got the M6PRO's yesterday and i found there's a definite sound quality difference between streaming a radio station from it's website vs. using Nextradio FM radio app with the next radio app being much cleaner . then i hooked them into my pioneer HT...

i've got a sharp aquos smartphone with a set of MEElectronics M6PRO's and was wondering what free apps y'all use for equalizing your IEM's or other audio related apps you may use on your phone . i'm new to the whole smartphone thing having just gotten the Aquos 3-4 months ago and the M6PROs are...

literally got them out the mailbox about a half hour ago , so no burn in time . i'll say upfront i like them a lot . and i like the sound better than the 151Ps 1st gen. that i instantly thought were too light on the bottom and top ends . i can hear and slightly feel the low organ on Styx The...

i got my sennheiser 429s from amazon , but they don't want to work at all with my android phone (sharp aquos crystal) unless i disconnect the mic section and just use the little 8ish inch shorty cord . but they do fine on my computer and adequate for home theater till i can replace my dead...

what are the differences between their sound profile and comfort when wearing ? i'm kinda sold on the 598's , but i've read so much about grado's and FWICT the Alessandro's are somewhere between the 80's and 125's . they use the "UHPLC voice coil wire that the 125's have (and the 80's don't) ...

these will be dual purpose at home music/theater and on the smartphone not doing any wild or crazy activities . i like classic rock , some pop and smooth jazz . no death metal or rap/hip-hop/electronica ..... i really enjoy action/adventure and sci-fi movies so decent impact is wanted , not...

just got my first smartphone (Sharp Aquos Crystal) and i want decent headphones for it . i don't like in-ears cause i can hear my heartbeat and my breathing and i don't like the feel of something in my ear . i want over ear cups only . i've narrowed my choices down to the Audio-Technica...

i'm 53 and want a decent set of headphones to replace my old sennheiser HD 555's that finally had a driver die . i've enjoyed them for many years but i think i'd like something with a little more sparkle/sheen to the very high end and a little tighter/cleaner low bass/sub-bass , but i don't want...

you guys help me narrow down my headphone choices to sennheiser 555 and akg 700D . i found a pair of 555s local for a good deal . now i want something for laying in bed watching tv a night . ill be laying on my side , so my 555s wont quite cut it . im thinking a small in ear type , but it needs...

my third thread in 3 days and i still havnt decided on my options yet . sorry for taking so long . LOL . im leaning strongly towards a set of AD-900's . i havnt herd them yet but i will next week . i did listen to some sennheiser 555's and they sounded very very nice to me and were very...

the AD700's seem to be THE headphone for about $100 . if i could spend say $125 or $150 absolute max is there anything else recomended over it ? i just want to be sure im considering the best headphones i can afford or rationalize the money for . i dont claim to be an audiophile . but i have...

hello folks , first post here . been lurking for a few weeks here and other www places learning some about different opinions and recomendations about headphones . im 47 and used to be really into music a lot as a kid and even did sound/pa for a few bands and a theatrical dinner theare show of...
