Looking for recommendations for a portable amplifier to pair with an Red Wine Audio modified 5.5 Generation iPod and Etymotic ER4S. I am interested in hearing about options in all price ranges. 

Can someone please post pictures of the USB cables that are supplied by Burson? I would also be interested to see photos of the cables that show who manufactures them.    Thank you. 

I am a longtime Head-Fi user but have not really used the site in several years because I thought I finally reached a settling point and happy medium with my audio equipment. I thought wrong and I am back and looking for an integrated amplifier with a USB DAC for my HD650 headphones which is...

I'm curious if anyone else has (or had) this issue?   I realize this has been discussed in the past but I want to take a fresh look at it: I have noticed that the paint is cracking on my HD 650 headband at top dead center.  Small flecks of paint in the same area are starting to peel and it...

  Link http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/01/25/clinton-mexico-drug-war_n_813535.html   I have used mine for the better part of almost 10 years and they are every bit as good as the day I purchased them. I cant speak highly enough of Don Wilson and Etymotic's customer service as well. ...

I am curious what if any internal/ technical parts differences exist between the Ultimate Ears 10 Pro and TripleFi 10? Can anyone give me information that confirms that they are/ are not different in terms of internal parts?       

I recently purchased the UltimateEars TippleFi 10 and have been using the small black silicon ear cushions but have found the fit and noise isolation to be disappointing. I would like to hear feedback on other universal (or custom tips) that are available/ recommended for the TippleFi 10? I...

I am curious if users can provide me with feedback about which Apple iPod within the current line (iPod shuffle, nano, classic, touch) has the best headphone out sound quality? I am also curious which iPod model historically has the best sound quality. Best, iDesign

I have been away from this community for sometime and perhaps the longtime users who are still here can answer this question: I have 20 GB (4th Generation) iPod and am considering doing the Red Wine Audio iMod on this unit -or- purchasing a new iPod or iPod Touch. However Im curious if it...

I am considering purchasing either of the two aforementioned monitors but I would like to have input on the longevity of clear (colorless) earmolds from people who own these products. I am mostly interested in learning about how the molds discolor from regular usage. Thank you.

I have observed a fault with the coil contact design that is found in the HD650, HD600, and HD580 headphones that results in an inop condition for the affected driver. I have noted that this issue is not isolated and in lieu of recent postings on the subject I feel it constitutes a new thread...

This is one of the most compelling products I have come across in sometime. The Olive Symphony and Musica are very good in their stock configuration and I am confident that Vinni Rossi has the proper knowledge to complete this extensive modification. I am anxious to test one of these units as it...

I would like to have the input on what are the most highly regarded RCA cable connectors priced under five dollars per connector. Currently I am most compelled by the offerings from Neutrik (ie. NYS352 and ProFi) though I am open to all suggestions. Best, iDesign

I have explored the archives for similar threads on the work but would to inquire within the community which specific recordings are preferred. In an attempt to consolidate my music library, I am replacing (and reselling) poor recordings with only those that are reference recordings. This...

I am not sure if users of Benchmark Media DAC1 units built between September 23, 2005 and February 3, 2006 have observed the recent recall posting on the official Benchmark Media Systems support website. If you missed this update, I hope that I have brought it to your attention in the best...

I am very interested in the PS Audio GCHA headphone amplifier. I have completed various searches and have only come across limited information about the amplifier. I have observed one review by Jude but would like to read more impressions of the product. Please share any information you may...

I am curious about the the Lehmann Audio Black Cube Linear. I understand that Sennheiser uses this amplifier to demonstrate their HD650 headphones. After a quick check through the archives there seems to be only a limited amount of posts (incl. one review) about the amplifier. I would like to...

In recent weeks I have been searching through the forums to identify a new headphone amplifier for my Sennheiser HD650 headphones. I use the headphones with two different sources, either a modified Exemplar Audio Denon 3910 or with an Apple AirPort Express + Headphone amplifier. I am currently...

Some time ago I posted a query about headphone amplifiers for my Sennheiser HD650 headphones. I am currently most heavily considering the Ray Samuels Audio HR-2. I prefer a headphone amplifier that controls but also improves the bass impact and scale of the HD650. My primary concern with the...

Interesting read for classical fans. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/4488370.stm Cheers, iDesign

I am contemplating the now "possibly" discontinued Red Wine Audio hMod or purchasing a dedicated headphone amplifier for use with my Apple iPod with Click Wheel (20GB). I realize that the hMod only revises the stock coupling caps in the iPods 3.5-mm headphone minijack output circuit and does not...

I have spent a great deal of time reviewing the archives before posting this thread discussion but wanted to post a new thread to get updated and specific feedback related to my individual needs. I am in the process of selecting a new headphone amplifier for my Sennheiser HD650 headphones...

I realize that this topic has been discussed previously, however I would like to again raise this question alongside my specific goals and not necessarily according to archived threads. I recently purchased the Sennheiser HD650 but have been somewhat troubled by the headphones imposing and...

Eugene Ysaye/ Georges Enescu: Sonatas I am curious about Eygene Ysaye's Violin Sonata No.1 and Georges Enescu Sonata No. 3--which recordings are preferred for each? If possible, please provide any applicable links to the specific recordings discussed. Best, iDesign
