    Just got my ticket. I'm hoping there will be a Simaudio 430/230 HAD I can listen to.

    DAPs with USB Digital output

    No, I don't plan to use it as a portable device. I was thinking of something that can be used as a simple transport at work (where I can't set up my own wireless network). I have been using an Auralic Aries Mini, and while it sounds better than USB from my laptop, this solution has led to a maze...

    DAPs with USB Digital output

    I'm looking for an alternative to using my computer as source to feed FLAC encoded files to USB DACs like Chord Hugo/Mojo. Are there any DAPs (with a dock, if necessary) that will outperform a general purpose laptop when operating as source for USB DACs? I've heard that the higher end Sony...

    Official 2014 SF Head-Fi Meet, July 19, 2014, DoubleTree San Francisco Airport

    I paid by PayPal for me (user: balu_613) and my wife (user: balaseetha) last night. I received receipts for payment from PayPal but nothing from head-fi yet. Should I bring printed copies of the PayPal receipts or will I get confirmations from head-fi before Saturday?

    Official 2014 SF Head-Fi Meet, July 19, 2014, DoubleTree San Francisco Airport

    I'll be coming. I've been looking for a good amp for my HD800 - is it okay to bring that along to try it with some of the amps on display?

    Is a new ear impression required for every custom IEM I buy?

    This is an issue that puzzles me.   I bought a JH13 Pro from JH Audio in 2009. When I called JH Audio a couple of years later to order a JH16, I was surprised to learn that though they had my ear impressions from my previous order, I'll have to send them a new set of impressions. When I asked...

    Stax Lambda primer for electrostat newbies

    Since I can't find any U.S dealer who has SR-507 and SRM-323S in stock, I am planning to buy them from joynetmall.com too. Their prices seem cheaper (than Elusive Disc), but I was wondering about how long it takes them to ship an order to the U.S. and if there are any hassles with customs duty...

    Difference betwen SRM-323A and SRM-323S

    I am a little confused about the SRM-323 - joynetmall.com has the models SRM-323A and SRM-323S, but other than a small difference in price, is there anything that separates the two? I

    Peachtree iNova or iDecco as headphone amp

    I have come across a few reviews of these amps, but almost none of them seem to discuss their performance as  headphone amps. Has anyone tried them with Audeze LCD-2?

    Stax Lambda primer for electrostat newbies

    I have a Lambda Pro + SRM 1 mkII I bought almost 25 years ago and after getting sidetracked into listening to LCD-2, HD-800, etc. I now want to get a newer Stax model, perhaps SR-507 + SRM-323. Elusivedisc appears to be the only online dealer in the U.S. that has them - are there any others?  ...

    Opinions on Isabellina DAC/HPA sought

    I am looking for a good headphone amplifier that can drive Senn HD 800, Audeze LCD-2, Denon D5000, JHA Pro 13 (and possibly Grado PS1000/GS1000/RS1) with ease to satisfying listening levels. I have a couple of decent DACs (Anedio D1 and Eastern Electric DAC), so a good DAC is an added bonus, but...

    Electronic Visionary Systems (EVS) "Ground Enhancers" Initial Impressions

    I have to concur with the comment about Bybee devices and GE. I have spent a fair amount of money getting Bybee's Speaker Chargers, interconnect plugs, etc. They made a noticeable improvement, but that was more like getting a better speaker cable or interconnects. But these GE's are astounding...

    Amphora charger

    I'd gotten a bunch of AC adapters mixed up during a home improvement project and I'm now trying to locate the one used for charging the battery on my Amphora. I've narrowed the possibilities down to two, with output voltages of 8.4V and 12V. Can someone with an Amphora let me know what the spec...

    Where to buy UM56?

    I'd like to get a pair for UM56 for my Westone 3s but am a little confused about where to get them from. I already have a set of impressions, so I'd like to avoid having to go to another audiologist to order the UM56s. Searching the web, I found that I can order them through 'EarphoneSolutions'...

    JH Audio JH-13 PRO impressions thread

    I hadn't even heard of JH13 until yesterday and stumbled quite by accident upon this thread. After reading all the comments I feel I must get myself a pair. But I need to get my ear impressions done first. Can someone recommend a good audiologist in the San Francisco Bay Area (preferably in...

    Underwhelmed by HD800 - need amp suggestions

    I got an HD800 last week after reading all the great reviews it has gotten so far. Right out of the box, I found its sound very disappointing - harsh, sibilant and closed in. So I let it burn in over the weekend, and though the sound has opened up considerably, I still find it somewhat harsh and...

    Westone ES3X questions

    Does anyone know of a good audiologist/westone dealer in the SF Bay Area? I've been calling the audiologists listed on Westone's website, but most of them seem to have moved or do not deal with Westone anymore. As a somewhat related question, I was wondering if Westone 3 + RSA Mustang will...

    Battery for RSA Hornet

    Does the choice of battery for RSA Hornet make a difference? I've been using it with the battery it came with, and though I'm generally happy with it, I was wondering if using a different battery can make a difference to the sound.
