Thansk for all the replies so far. So since we're at +4 for tube Amps, what would you guys suggest? It's gotta at least work for my non hard to drive headphones, and I prefer the most amount of tube sound. I don't have a perfect ear, so subtle differences aren't my forte. I love schiit gear...

Yeah don't get me wrong, I know it can make a difference, but I feel once you spend 100-200$ on a DAC, you've done most of it's job, replacing the crummy onboard for most devices. I'm sure it would sound better than my modi, but it'd be hard to justify vs a tube amp, or new cans.

3 votes tube amp. Thecrow, as much as I love my hd600s, I got such a great deal on them and the difference between 600vs650 is so mild vs other headphones I know id never make that purchase. X2s I've definitely heard great things of. Cossix, I'm tempted to get a bifrost simply to make the...

Oh yeah I've heard of that stuff being used before. So would those go in the cups or between the driver and the pads, or between pads and ears?

Hey guys, longish time head-fier returning after a hiatus. Im in the market for new gear, but im not sure what. Im stuck in a debate as to what to spend my money on, so im kinda looking for opinions on what would add the most value to what i have currently, or give me the most bang for the...

Holy crap i cant believe this threads still going. Long time Denon Owner here. D5000s with lawton audio mk2 mods, so dynamat inside, and lawton pads. I guess my preferences, ears, or headphones have changed over the 5-7 years ive owned em, and thee treble has become too emphasized for my...

So guys, it looks like Ive narrowed my choices down to two products. My criteria was, physical volume knob, works with Note 4, and portable size.   My only concern at this point is, are these going to be clear enough to not cause any hiss or static on super sensitive CIEMs, like my 1964 V4...

Where can I find this list so I might educate myself? Thanks for the help

Dacport, or C5D? 

Hey guys, quick question, I'm sure its been answered in these 400 pages somewhere, but don't have the time to read it all. Will OTG cable or Android phones such as the Note 4, play ALL audio through OTG, such as Spotify, Pandora, and onboard players like Samsung Media?    DAC wise lookin at...

Picked up some 1964 Ears Quads on the BF sale. Ordered with Translucent Black, and Aluminum faceplates. 

Hey sorry about that. But yeah thats basically what I meant, I know of course you guys can't actually tell me how good it would sound, but I just wanna make sure there are no glaring faults. With the CSI4 vs CSI6, I think they were both matched to that series of speakers, as polk does have a TSX...

Hey so this may be the wrong section, if so, my bad. Im setting up a HT/Music room for my family, and happen to work at an electronics store, where I get a large discount on certain brands. The point of this thread is to see if anyone knows of a better solution or possible setup for the room...

Anyone have anything on this?

Hey guys, and gals.    So I'm building a home theater system, and am able to afford some things I normally wouldn't. So I'm looking at a 5.1 setup, for a combo of HT and Music. I currently have a Schiit Modi, and Asgard 1, which I use for my Lawton Modded D5000s, Vmoda 100s, and a few others. ...

So FYI to those curious, 1964, JH audio, Noble, and UM all had sales going on, some might still be going. Picked up some 1964 quads for a good price. 

So just for everyones knowledge, Noble Audio does have something up their sleeve for I'm assuming Black Friday, as per their twitter account. So we shall see I suppose.   https://twitter.com/noblebywizard

Just a comment on the durability thing, Ive dropped mine twice ever, desk height. I was furious that it happened, but they escaped with no damage at all. These cans are tougher than people give credit, the only issue I'm running into after I think 3 years roughly is the rubber stress reliefs on...

Where? I can't find any info on this. Checked website and FB page. 

Were getting closer guys, if you find any good deals post em up.    Also Junker, I thought Schiit never did sales, or pre-releases or anything like that to keep costs down. 

Hey guys, I know theres websites and etc for stuff like this, but I thought it would be a great idea to get a thread going for us audiophiles on a budget.    My thoughts are, if you know of any great deals coming up around the holiday time frame, or are looking for a particular deal, throw it...

Didnt make it on the list :( Please let me know if a second opportunity opens up...My next purchase will be a stax rig, just a matter of which ones. 

Quote: Would also love to know this about too. Stax list

Quote: Ive actually seen multiple cases of USPS deliverers signing for the packages themselves, and dropping them off at whatever house they suspect is the one is was supposed to be delivered for. Really cant trust anyone these days. 

Quote: Would agree here. Make it worth your time and whatnot.
