The bad news is that I've lost my Oriolus Reborn The good news is that now I have an excuse to buy a new IEM and now that I am a working person, the budget is around ~$2000 USD. I really like the sound signature of the Reborn and I am hoping to find something that is similar to it...

Was wondering if these brand and their amps are still relevant in this day age? If I recall correctly, the Predator came out at around '08 or '09? And with all the changes and advances in technology and chips these days, are they still worth the buy? Furthermore, I was wondering if this...

I'm pretty dead-set on Audioengine speakers on my book shelf. The only problem now is that I don't know how to get my music to it: I have a raspberry pi (my seedbox which contains ALL my music_ in another room which is right next to my router and my speakers are in a room. Putting the raspberry...

I was thinking on doing just this, and I would like to know if any of you have done just that. I have read that speakers which cost less than HD800 can wipe the floor with those cans I realized that after owning them, I am not looking for accurate monitoring that is so clinical and unforgiving...

With over 35 versions of The Dark Side of The Moon out there, including CDs and Vinyls, and all those fantastic remasters:  I want to find out which one you like best and why.   It is interesting to know that the same album, distributed by a different record label can sound different.  The...

I'm in the market for a dedicated DAC and I've had the v800 in my mind (to complement my v200).  However, I have been reading rave reviews about the Audio-gd's Reference 7.1 as being the new flagship DAC.  I was wondering how it compares to the v800 in all aspects.  (I've searched high and low...

I have made up my mind to purchase for myself a v200 amp for myself this fall/summer.  However, upon further reading of the "Review: Violectric HPA V200 amp" (can be found here: http://www.head-fi.org/t/551173/review-violectric-hpa-v200-amp/1560), I figured that my sources needed to be upgraded...

Hi,   I am on my way to audio-nirvana now that I have found a decent paying job.     A quick intro on my current headphones and my musical preferences:   I currently own the Grado SR325is which I really adore for the rock/metal, and although I was tempted to sell it many many...

I've seen my fair share of Pico USB DAC/AMP or The Predator threads, and long story short (after 10 hours of research), I have chose the Pico over the the Predator.   Ever since it arrived, I have enjoyed listening to music on my computer and Cowon J3.  But, how can I ever forget what I read...

So I have a Pico DAC/Amp coming in this week, and I have already loaded up all my FLACs onto my computer, downloaded foobar2k and installed this plug-in: http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_out_wasapi   I am running Windows 7 and I just realized that there are three ways to...
