    Want significant UIEM upgrade from DBA-02 MK II/UE700 (older ver)

    I'd like to get a replacement soon, so a small list would be a great starting point. Not sure of compatible price range, so I'll guess $250-450 and $450-1000. Basically I'm looking for a neutral sound quality. Will be for home use connected to an Anedio D2.       Here's what I've found so...

    Recommend me an amp/DAC/source for DBA 02 MKII and UE 700

    I'm finally going portable. Will soon be ordering a Mission Workshop Fitzrroy (b-i-i-i-g backpack), so weight/space is a premium (more or less). Price point? Not sure, but want something that matches my IEMs. Will be using Apple lossy files. P.S. Can you direct me to Jude's earlier TV videos...

    The Useless Off-ramp USB Converter Thread

    (Help with) Apple "for sale" value

    I have a 2 mo old 13 MacBook Pro that I want to consider selling and replacing. Chalk it up to a noob experience with laptops, as the 13" was chosen because I did not consider the option to have this as my primary computer. In the latter case the 15" MBP would be much more practical.   13"...
