    Impedance, sensitivity and DACs

    Hi Sound Science people, I'm considering picking up a Campfire Audio Andromeda, but after reading reviews and trying to match it with what I've learned from reading this sub-forum, I can't quite get things to line up. In particular, I'd like to drive them from my iPhone 7 (with a lightning...

    Hi Head-Fi, I bought the iSine 10 about 6 months ago and really like the sound of them, but have been struggling to fall in love with them for two reasons: - Comfort: The over-the-ear clips bend my ears and the in-ear hooks often pop out (especially with the weight and hardness of the cipher...

    I have an iMac->LittleDot MK III->DT880's and I am not completely satisfied with the sound, especially because there is quite a bit of background noise so I was planning on getting a DAC to go with the setup. I've read that the EMU 0404 is supposed to be good. Anyone care to comment on the...
