    HTC One vs iPhone vs Samsung/Wolfson

    I use I9500 and it powers my Sony MDR EX-1000 really well, it sounds wonderful. It's just that supercurio said that the software is a bit wonky with 48 Khz up sampling instead of 44.1 Khz.

    Shamefully, my laptop can't do that. I've seen some people with Macs able to do it without any problem but for people with Windows, they need somekind of converter or something. I guess, I need to be contend with this until I have the access to my desktop computer again in another 4 months.

    Non-audiophile reactions to high-end headphones

    I'm quite upset by the action Crytek took by selling out to the console hype, developers like this are the ones making people go "LOL PC GAMING IS DEAD" while in fact it's only the developers who wants to cash in fast without producing quality games.   ahhh on topic, I didn't know that IEM...

    I'm limited to USB, my laptop is dell XPS studio and there's no Optical plug. I've done some reading on the limitation of using USB to connect to the DAC, is there any way to bypass those limitation ? I can't change the setting pass 16/48.   There's a firewire 1394 port on my laptop, will...

    Gonna bump this while asking some questions. So I already tried it for a couple of days and it seems that I prefer how it sounds when amping my Zune HD rather than my laptop, it sounds a bit flabby and tiring while when I'm using it with my Zune, it sounds really tight and clean. Should I start...

    Portable Amp for Shure Se535

    My friend just bought a Shure SE535, he uses his SE handphone as the source (I forgot which one but it's the walkman series) he's asking me wether to buy a DAC/AMP or go for a Hifiman HM-602. Any opinion on this ? I told him better to go HM-602 just because it's pretty much PMP + AMP + DAC in 1...

    Getting "called-out" for not wearing the Beats

    Quote:   Shouldn't have said sensitive sentence like that in front of someone who owns Beats, give him a try of your headphone and let their own conscience judge their own purchase.   Got a friend who just bought beats, well I think he's quite mad after I post some stuff regarding the...

    Why beats by dr.dre are considered good?

    Don't forget the "Cool" looks, I just don't understand the appeal of it. I mean look at Ultrasones, heck even AKG... those are nice looking headphones with good build quality and SQ. I don't really like the plasticky looks of Beats and when I hold one of them in an Apple store, they felt so...

    After I lost the bid to get a second hand HeadAmp DAC/AMP Pico, I give up to the devil and bought this. I paid it on sunday, based on HeadFi-ers experience here, how long does it take from China to Germany ? and What should I expect to happen with my Ultrasone Pro750 ? Do I must prepare my body...

    Getting "called-out" for not wearing the Beats

    My first headphone was Bose QC2 and I'm quite shocked when I compare them to other headphone in the same price range but nevertheless it does its job as a travelling headphone quite well especially when I'm on a plane   My second headphone was Grado SR225i, overpriced as heck in my country...
