However upon looking at amazon, it is $179.95. I'm assuming there is low stock of these and high demand? Was anyone able to...- Gorgatron

Question regarding Fiio e10 and Klipsch speakers
I just received my fiio e10 and the manual says speakers can be connected to the back through the line out. This may be a dumb question but can the 3.5mm cable from my klipsch promedia 2.1 connect to this cable and work? And if this is the case do the speakers get disabled when headphones are...- Gorgatron

Questions about Maverick Audio D1 (xbox 360 involved)
1). How good of a DAC is this? Currently I am using a hifiman ef2 and I do not need much of an amp as all of my headphones have low impedance. I do not plan on getting any headphones that are difficult to drive. I think I should focus more on a better dac than amp. 2). I know a xbox 360...- Gorgatron

Good amp for the AKG k701/2 and/or DT 880?
Hey guys. So I really want the k701, k702, and the dt 880. but I may go with the dt 880 first and then the k702. I've been looking at the fiio e9 and possibly the combo with the e7. How well do the two work together? Is it worth those 2 at $200~? If not I'm open to amp suggestions.- Gorgatron
