My head-fi spark has been reunited after years of absence, I found myself with a pair of the new massdrop AKG 7xx headphone on their way and a desire to recreate some of the experiences which got me into higher end audio in the first place.  One of my first amps was a Blueberry Audio Emotion...

I was lucky enough to win a pair of the custom fit PCS-150 at a recent show, after a couple searches I really couldn't find much buzz on them so I thought I'd post a review here for the community. These are a single driver IEM at the $200 price point making them the cheapest custom fit IEM I've...

Ive had my pair of shure E2C's for years now (iirc I bought them 3 or 4 years ago) and they've finally died, the cord that goes over the ear has split and sound is intermittent. Id like to replace them this xmas. I really want custom molds for my ears, unfortunately most custom IEMs are way...

I'm sure this amp is way past its prime but I remembered that I had a board populated and decided to dust it off and se if I could get it to work. Now, I'm going through amb's site step by step. The board is fully populated and after a once over I found no solder bridges. Now for step 6...

This is my senior year, rather than indulge in a rather lackluster school sponsored senior trip with my class my friends and I have instead been planning a trip to Europe. A recent thread here on head-fi sparked me to write this thread, I’d love to hear what the denizens of head-fi think of this...

Yeah so maybe some one here on the forums can explain this to me, I've tried googling it with no avail. Why am I being summoned on my summer vacation to take pictures? Our school sets an entire day aside during the school year for this exact purpose so why should I come during the summer...

Hey all! after the rave reviews of rockbox (and really wantinig my music to be sorted by folder not artist) I installed rockbox via the automated install. it loads up and everything works but i notice i cant listen to music and browse through my folders or the ipod chokes up, usually just...

I bought a whole bunch of computer parts of newegg on monday, they were supposed to be delivered today via UPS. at 4:00 I saw the truck pull up and park(blocking my driveway completely). I stepped out on the porch and said" [my address]" he tunred and nodded at me, he heard what I said. then...

My B-day's coming up and my parents have decided to buy me a guitar. I've played acoustic for a year-year and a half but the electric aspect of guitars is new to me. I went to one of the (fairly) local guitar shops and played a few, didn’t see many I liked; only a few shecter's caught my eye...

hey there, I'm looking for the name of a chip, I dont know if you can help but if any one has any idea where to start it would help. I seem to remember a thread a long way back talking about these chips but I cant find it anymore. I'm looking for a capacitance sensing IC, or atleast I believe...

hey, I just upgraded to .9 then realized half the plugins still dont work. doesnt bother me too much but a few things do, one being colums_ui. they updated the interface on the new foobar so now my albums are tabs at the top of the screen, where as they used to be in a list along the left side...

for many seasons now kirosa with His many generals (including the mighty Sir Jahn) has been leading the faction of pretzel loving audiophiles onward to victory through the maelstrom that is head-fi. With overwhelming support this group of pretzel fanatics has been spreading the ways of the...

I lost the nut off of my Go-Vibe, I ignored it for a while but its really starting to annoy me. I hit up the local hardware shops a few months back and then again recently but with no luck. to My knowlage its this part: (mouser) 502-35RAPC4BH3 I considered just buying an additional jack but...

I froogled CD3000 in hopes of some nice pics to wet my tastes but I was bombarded by these: I could of sworn the chambers were deeper, they look so much better in cheechoz's avatar! I did a search here on head-fi but sadly most of the pictures have been taken down any one wanna throw...

My ears have been getting increasingly congested recently with ear wax, I think it’s from the numerous insertions of my E2C's but I'm not sure. Recently My E2C's have been coming out with the wax guard covered in wax so I decided to clean them, I soaked in a warm bath allowing water to flow...

I saw these and they seem to be screaming for ksc35/75 drivers! Jahn, since I know your gonna read this, iirc you keep mentioning your love for the ksc line aswell and being cold during the winter, perhaps this alternative might be for you?

ok, every xmas vacation I get deemed "free family tech support" as so many others seem to. this means each year I get a pile of PC's and cell phones, laptops and mp3 players that supposedly "don't work". usually its a simple case od charging the phone, putting music on the mp3 player, and runing...

got a rio karma (working) for $20 because the scroll wheel broke. A google/head-fi search didnt bring up any solutions but I've heard of this happening a lot. what are my options?

Left my millet on for the last two days, first time its been on for that long. PLugged in th HF-1's and here a "clipping noise" it can be heard distinctly with out music playing and can be heard during music if I listen carefully. from what Ive found the clipping noise I'm hearing is from...

yeah, I just breadboarded this but Im not sure what I did wrong, Perhaps someone could chime in?

Went on a CD Binge and bought a whole bunch of CD's, I tried out a few bands such as broken social scene (you forgot it in people and feel good lost are both amazing albums). When I added these to the Amazon cart they had a band called arcade fire - Funeral. Sounded kind of corny but I tried a...

Since I finished my Millet (just doing case work now) I’ve been listening to it with my DT770's to less than Jake, Reel big fish, some Radiohead and Muse but for fun I plugged in my HF-1's, which so far have not seen too much use, queued up some less than Jake (hello rockview for any fans) and I...
