    Head-fi forums will refresh as if crashed while trying to reply

    Only just recently while on the latest safari, whenever I try to leave a reply on a topic on head-fi, the browser will act as if it has crashed and reload itself every 20 seconds or so.  On one medium size post I had this happen to me at least 5 times.  Others have noted the same issue as well...

    Please get rid of the rollover ads

    I was disallowed to even view the other Rollover Ad topic in this subforum by the admin team, and I've brought it up to you guys multiple times over the past 4-5 months.  Jude assured something would be done about it a looong time ago, yet here we are months later with no progress.   If the...

    Man of Steel Review

    This was it, my most anticipated movie of the summer blockbuster bunch for 2013.  It was to be the perfect storm of what I considered a virtual blowjob at the movie theater.  Not only did I like the ‘dark’ and brutal approach of DC’s Dark Knight Trilogy over the seemingly light hearted Marvel...

    Review & Comparison: HE-400 vs D2000 with snippets of HD650 thrown in

    Introduction   I’ve been on a grand journey through the last two years, searching for that one headphone that would satisfy my audial needs and be the best overall for me.   After extensive experience with headphones such as M50, DT990 and HD650, the D2000 still remains my go-to can for...

    FACEOFF: D2000 vs HD650; a comparison and review of two head-fi juggernauts

    This is a 5000-word post.  For the impatient, skip to the section labeled as a big blue 'Ratings'     Introduction:   As a long time D2000 owner, I've always liked a pair of headphones that weren't shy to strut their deep end without falling over themselves and losing clarity.  After...

    Preamp for Mackies

    I've been searching for a good pair of active studio monitors to be used for music/multimedia in my smallish living room.  I've arrived at the Mackie M5 MK2s so far, but the only problem is that they only have a (very unwieldy) input adjustment on the backside of their chassis.  If I still plan...

    Looking into getting some TV speakers.

    Recently I decided I wanted to invest a small amount of money into a decent pair of active speakers for my TV.  My budget is 200 and under, and I've been looking into the BX5A the most.  Would these be a viable pair of TV speakers?  My TV only has RCA in the back, and I've also heard the BX5A...

    Looking to polish off my rig

    I just got the Little Dot MKII for my DT990 600Ω, and I'm amazed at just how much soundstage this thing has when properly amped.  I assume it even gets better the more I scale up.  For right now I'm just looking for possible upgrades to the stock tubes and eventually maybe a dac as well.   I...

    Comparisons between DT990 600ohm and ATH-M50, AD700? Plus other inquiries.

    I've been on a recent audio craze with headphones ever since my cheap 20 dollar headset I used to voice chat on games died.  I realized my iMac's audio wasn't cutting it and I could really do with some headphones that had some nice sub-bass and treble compared to the attenuated apple sound.  ...
