Hey guys I haven't been on Headfi for about six years. I'm thinking I'd like to get something that would synergize really well with the iPhone 4s and my UE-11s. I know the pico slim is supposed to be recommended for IEMs, but I wondered if the pico would be a better fit. Any thoughts? I listen...

Hello everyone!! its been a few years since I've been here. I'm looking at a portable headphone amp that will synergize with an iPhone 4S and UE-11s. Id like to keep the budget at around $300 no more than $350. Thanks everyone. It's good to be back

Hello everyone,   I sold my pico and pred back in the fall of last year, and need something for my dac/amp deficiency.  I'm using my ue-11's with my laptop and stock dac.  I thought of just getting another pico amp/dac cuz I really enjoyed the detail before.  The only thing keeping me from...

Provided everything goes smooth, I should be getting my ue-11s on Wednesday (my first customs). Right now, I'm using my Hornet with my Zune/iPod and M-Audio IE-30s. I'd like to know what you ue-11 users prefer in terms of amplification. I've read (and really excited to hear) the ue-11s sound...

I'm looking at maximizing my shelf space by replacing my jewel cases with a sleeve alternative. I'm looking for any and all suggestions. I've seen some from jewelsleeve.com and a few other sites, but wanted to know if anyone here knows of any other sites offering decent quality sleeve storage...

For the past few days I've noticed that when I try to rip my cd's, eac is telling me that the freedb server is down (actual statement is, "Can't Connect to Host"). It was working fine the last time I was ripping some cd's which was about a week ago. At first I thought it was just eac, but...

To begin with, Mondays are really just a hassle for me. Once I get going, I'm allright, but it's the getting going that's the problem! So anyway, I knew that I was going to be getting my Cayin HA-1A today according to UPS tracking. That was a decent perk. Since it was shipped to my business, I...

Late last week I spoke with Dan from BlackBirdAudio and pulled the trigger on a Cayin HA-1 which should be in Monday. However, that's really not the bad thing (ALTHOUGH I could've waited, I suppose). The bad thing is, I just spoke with Ray over the phone, and I'll have a Green Hornet in my...

I need to find a dedicated (read home) headphone amp that's going to drive my headphones properly and the way they were meant to be heard. My primary focus is my 701s and my 770/250s, although I still do use my HHF-1s, HHD580s, 770/80s, HSR225s, and TF10pro too. Right now, my two amps that I...

I also posted this on T-Board too..... A good friend of mine has asked me to be the 'DJ' (I really wouldn't consider myself a DJ by any stretch) for his wedding reception/dance, and I'm looking for a couple of pointers anyone has to offer. The wedding is a traditional 'American' wedding...

I'm sure we get this thread at least during xmas, and I'm sure during other holidays and not to mention birthdays too so here we go......... I got a decent little $$$$ gift from my mom and sister and need some help regarding where I should invest this little sum. I've got $450 and I'm...

After some deep thinking and going back and forth (not to mention some very hardcore spousal negotiations-I feel like I just made a deal with the devil!), I decided to email Ken at audiolineout about the Earmax Pro. I had emailed him a couple times in the past regarding some cables and possibly...

I'd like to know where to go regarding my next amp. I am very happy with my SM3, but I've got an amp upgrade in my sites. I'm waiting to get an EMU 0404 USB to upgrade from my Audigy (2NX) so that will improve my computer's end. After that, it will either be Darth Beyers or the headphone amp...

I'd like to invest in a dedicated amp that will help drive my portable dap's (X5, iPods, Karma, RH1) when they're connected to my home stereo's tuner. Anytime I connect these players to my home stereo, the output is substandard; and using my SM3v6 helps, but I'd like a committed unit for...

I'd like to be able to play my ipods/karma/x5 through my home stereo tuner, and would like some recommendations with a decent home headphone amp (or similar) to drive the dap's with enough power. Now and again, I'd also like to use it (obviously) with my headphones (770/80s, headphiled 580s...

Ok, I'm thinking of upgrading my setup, but I don't know where to start in my audio gear. For home/portable use I either use my Rio Karma or the X5 60gb with Xin's SM 3.0ver6, and my headphones/iem's are sr225's woodified and recabled, stock dt770, recabled hd580s, super.fi 5 pros, and I...

Right now I'm using a laserdisc player as my source (Panasonic LX-101) and I'm thinking I may be able to do a little better (I may be wrong, I don't know). My portable rig is a Rio Karma or my X5 60gb and my primary headphone amp right now is Xin's SM 3.0ver6. My headphones are woodified...

My cousin is slowly getting involved more and more into music. He's got a later model ipod (20 gig). It's amped with a MisterX MINT, and he uses either ex71s or Shure e2c's. I'd like to get him some cans for his birthday that are in the $150 price range, give or take. I'd like to hear what...

I've heard the term used for assorted cans, and wonder what exactly does everyone mean by fun? Also, which cans would NOT be fun and why? I've read that the SR225s and the DT770s are both fun. I've got both of them, and I've also got a pair of HD580's which are equally as fun (at least to...

I've got an Elpac WM080-1950 for my Pimeta, and wondered if there are 'connector adaptors' out there. Instead of buying another PSU for the Porda Corda MKII, I'd like to use this one (it meets Jan's specs for a psu) for both the Pimeta and MKII, and avoid soldering the MKII connector. Anyone...

Hello, I'm about to get one (porta corda ii) and want a psu for it. I've read that it comes with the power plug adaptor. Can anyone point me in a direction where I can find out more about 'building' or putting together a psu for the amp? In other words, how do i connect the adaptor to the...

I've been doing some research regarding which headphones go well with these amps, but I need some more help. I thought of purchasing the a900's, but it doesn't seem to really need an amp, judging by the threads and also what other people have told me. I'm going to be using these amps with...

Hello, I'd like to find out how I'd go about finding those who make the smaller mint tin amps here at headfi. Is there a list here in the forums? I'd like to have some amps made with tins that I have and use them as gifts. Thanks everyone!!!
