    Is there a desktop headphone amp buyer's guide? Or alternatively, recommendations?

    I'm looking for a decent desktop headphone amp that can drive most things I can throw at it. I currently don't have anything too terribly special, just a set of modified monoprice cans atm. But i do plan on getting better stuff in the future.  I currently have a Fiio E11 and I love it, but I...

    Fiio E11 Repair and/or Modification?

    I have a Fiio E11 amp I bought used over a year ago.  The input jack has a broken solder joint and will only work if it is pressed on in a certain way.  The issue I'm coming across is, I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the board out of the shell. I got both covers off, screws...

    Left side louder than right.

    Okay, so i just recently rewired my Monoprice headphones (the Kicker rebrands) internally with some silver-plated ofc teflon wire (Navships stuff) to replace the hokey hair-thin enameled wire they ship with. All said and done, i button them back up, and the right channel sounds noticeably more...

    Replacement pads for Pioneer SE-505s (anything that fits)

    Friend of mine has a set of pioneer SE-505s he is refurbishing for daily use. Rewire, bypass knobs, replace crossover caps, etc. But one thing he is lacking is earpads for it.

    Question about 3.5mm plugs (neutrik vs viablue re: size)

    I'm going to be recabling my Shure E2C IEMs as soon as my 28awg 19 strand silver teflon wire comes in the mail from Navships. I'm currently looking for a 3.5mm stereo mini cable end to use with them. I have use neutrik/reans before and i like them, but i recently came across the super slim...
