For discussion on anything and everything which is NOT AUDIO RELATED.     To keep people entertained and sane on head-fi since when you only discuss audio 24 / 7 you just want to delete your account eventually.

Hello,   This is my attempt at a glossary of some audio linguistics, as per our perception, noted in imagery or feeling, with the intent to connect to similar or identical perception of the other listener, communicated via text.     I know some reviewers or reviews I've read, if I read...

This is the adjacent thread to "The index of fairytales" to keep the schools of thought seperate.       So, this thread will revolve around data, hardware, software, electrical theory, acocustic theory and similar topics on various audio perceptions, which I'm compiling into a little...

Discovered this yesterday.         Looking at the internal components, this looks like an excellent all-in-one unit.     http://www.ebay.com/itm/FIRE-PHOENIX-DAC-02-CS4398-LM4562-MINI-USB-DAC-Headphone-Amplifier-/180738679826

Hello everyone,     My Vsonic GR07 MK2 / Visang R07 MKII flagship updated James Bond whatever version is on the way and this is a placeholder for a review.     I'm quite excited about the look of the cable, this is the first time I've been excited about a cable!      ...

Hi,   I decided to review the FX500 filter removal in realtime.     The JVC FX500 is a pretty decent IEM.   There is an important variable involved in reviewing IEM's which I call... acclimatization.     It's pretty simple, you're used to a certain kind of weather, you move...

Hi,         This discussion started in this thread     The discussion revolved around acoustic measurement, digital measurement, the totality of data / total lack thereof, how data correlates to the listening experience, et cetera.   Using the Skullcandy MMM versus LCD-3...

Anyone familiar with this portable amplifier, it has 6500+ views?   http://www.ebay.com/itm/Fanmusic-Mini-Portable-Battery-Headphone-Amplifier-RA1-/120642236301  

Hi,   I think listening to music / audio is by it's nature blind, not sighted, so I'd like to evaluate some op-amp's in an amplifier without seeing them.     It's pretty simple, all I need is a multi-channel amplifier like this,       The Behringer HA400 one has four...

Hi,   I bought LT1028csw from here - http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Two-2x-Mono-Dual-OPAMP-2x-LT1028-NE5532-OPA2604-/290606645188   When I use it in my DAC and connect IEM's directly to the RCA out, there is a lot of distortion, especially with bass.   When I connect my DAC to my stereo...

Hi,   I commonly look for all technical data I can find on any product, in this case IEM's.   I've become very tired lately of frequency response measurements.  It's just volume balance and extension, yet the comments on head-fi and reviews often indicate it's a lot more, such as this...

  I couldn't find a thread to discuss this new DAC in so here it is.   - http://epiphany-acoustics.co.uk/our-products/e-dac-24bit-miniature-usb-dac/   - http://www.jdslabs.com/item.php?fetchitem=39   - http://headnhifi.com/index.php/shop/objective     I already have a Sabre...

  When you block a member, their posts are only collapsed, and they can still PM you.    

  It would be nice if head-fi came in a few different colours, and fonts.  

  Curious.

    Post in this thread if you're a Mexican student and I'll give you my Koss PortaPro's for free and send them to you for free.     You must be a Mexican student.    

             

  There was a time, very recently in terms of human history, when high fidelity promised to free the music lover from the constraints of the concert hall and the local repertoire, allowing him to choose at his whim any orchestra in the world playing any work he desired under the baton of any...

    I've been investigating the possibility of dynamic driver reshelling and contacting the various custom IEM companies on this planet.   Very few are willing to do it due to the nature of the proceedure, it's more complicated and they say it can take 5 to 6 times longer than a balanced...

        I listened from left to right.   The first two are Aviators, the third is a G.I., the fourth is a Hesh, and the Icon isn't pictured (it portable, light and small).     The Aviators look cool, yes, they LOOK COOL. They sound a bit dissonant.   The G.I. clamps...

  Hi, I'm thinking about combining the CK10 and ER-4 into a single custom IEM, the CK-4.     In other words, the Knowles TWFK along with the ED-29689.   I have two alternatives in mind, and then sub-alternatives.   a) TWFK + sub-bass driver + super-tweeter.   b) TWFK +...

  I took this photo yesterday while I was listening to some Doctor Dré headphones at my local electronics outlet, I couldn't help but laugh at the slogan.       ^ You don't say.
