Before starting, I'd like to thank iFi Audio for lending me the iUSB to review. Vince who was responsible for sending the unit has been constantly supportive and helpful and if this is representative of their customer service as a whole then I can only imagine that they'd be a pleasure to buy...

I originally posted in the recommendations thread but I didn't get any responses so hopefully I'll have more help here. I decided I've been borrowing my dad's DT770/80 and it's about time I got some proper headphones of my own but I'm a little overwhelmed by the possibilities.   I am looking...

The E-DAC arrived quickly despite having been told that it would take a while due to restocking. It didn't have its own box but was just packed in the one it was delivered in, along with a USB 2.0 Type A to USB Mini-B lead and four sticky feet (which I wish I had stuck on earlier as it scratched...

Hi chaps, I am just starting to save for a new pair of headphones. Initially I was thinking of going for the HD650s but having heard the HD700s for the first time today with the HDVD800 I'm thinking I might sink a bit more money and go for HD700, HE500 or TH600 for example. My current set up...

I have quite a few basic questions and am a little confused so I thought it might warrant a thread.   Am I right in thinking that CDs rip to 41kHz at 16bit, and If that was the case then what is the point in DACs supporting playback at 96kHz and 24bit or 32bit? Can you get higher than CD...

I've decided to start a little project involving the Raspberry Pi, my plan is to make it so that it will take music from a server or external memory and send it to a USB DAC and the interface will be on my android phone. I've discovered an app called MPDroid that browses music externally from my...

So my Magni has arrived in the UK and has been in customs for the past week or two but it's only just occurred to me that my source (Laptop out/Sansa Clip+) will be the limiting factor. Originally I thought it'd be fine to use my Clip+ as a source but I've decided I'll really need a dedicated...

Living in the UK it can be very hard to find some of the more exotic audio brands and products online, so I thought it'd be a good idea to collate them in one thread. I ought to warn you in advance that the links posted won't necessarily be of authorised dealers so be careful that you're not...

I'm looking for a desktop amp for less than £100 to drive my Senn 439s and BD770 Pros, my Clip+ being the source. So far I've been looking at Schiit Magni, JDS O2 and the Little Dot MkII (or III if it's worth stretching my budget) so could I have some opinions on these and potentially some...

Hello all,   I just bought a new pair of Senns and though my laptop's audio is alright I was hoping for a few tips to improve. Firstly, I'm about to start re-downloading my collection in FLAC and was wondering which program you use to play your FLAC besides iTunes and Windows Player...

Hey guys,   I bought an HTC One X a few months ago and as I expected the sound quality has been nothing but a disappointment despite it being great in nearly all other areas. Having previously tried other HTCs and owned a Wildfire S I knew what to expect but I thought I might as well see if...

Hey guys, I'm struggling to decide between getting a Cowon J3 or an iPod Classic. If anybody could just say which they feel is better from their own experience and why, that would be greatly appreciated. Cheers!
