Games with best sound design...music and sound effects?
I read that there are mods for Skyrim which enhance the sound (which is already great in terms of quality and immersion). Does anyone know of such mods?- kalinov

Games with best sound design...music and sound effects?
Kind of old school, but for me, Diablo I is the staple for audio atmosphere. Walking those dark tunnels and chambers and hearing the devilish but perfect soundtrack is amazing. I got my first pair of Stax Gamma earspeakers this weekend and am currently gathering ideas for atmospheric...- kalinov

Stax SRD-6 + Bravo Audio V1 + HRT Music Streamer II setup possible?
Quote: Thanks, Spritzer! The Bravo being my only point of reference, I guess I haven't heard "tube sound". I will look into a real tube amp in the future. Is the Little Dot MK III good? Again, thanks for your help! This really cleared things out for me.- kalinov

Stax SRD-6 + Bravo Audio V1 + HRT Music Streamer II setup possible?
That sounds reasonable. I presume the Bravo Audio can be fed to the T-amp to still get the tubey sound out, correct? Or will this introduce unnecessary noise? As far as the inputs on the back of the SRD-6, do the clamps and the fat wire do the same thing (provide two ways to get the...- kalinov

Stax SRD-6 + Bravo Audio V1 + HRT Music Streamer II setup possible?
I've been reading the forums here and finally got the bug (nay, demon) to try electrostatic headphones...sorry, I meant earspeakers :). You could say I'm an audiophile noob with a big desire to enjoy my FLAC collection in uber musicality and detail, on a budget. Pulled the trigger yesterday on...- kalinov

Bravo Audio V1 Review - The Little Headphone Amp That Could
Quote: Thanks a lot for the advice, pokee1016! Right now I'm looking for a linear power supply. I found one which gives 22-26V (I'm thinking the Bravo Audio needs 24V, correct?) and 2.25A. Will this do? It seems the best option that I've discovered which won't break the bank. I...- kalinov

Bravo Audio V1 Review - The Little Headphone Amp That Could
Hey pokee1016, Hmmm interesting...I remember reading about the power supply mod but didn't think it would make a difference. When I was a kid I used to tinker a lot with electronics (I've done many autopsies on still living household devices) so I'll try these mods. It'll be interesting...- kalinov

Bravo Audio V1 Review - The Little Headphone Amp That Could
Thanks, PurpleAngel, that was indeed the correct value. I used 16.5 because that's what was suggested in the article I read.- kalinov

Bravo Audio V1 Review - The Little Headphone Amp That Could
PurpleAngel, I fine tuned the voltage after looking at the Rockgrotto forum. Interestingly, the balanced values on my unit are ~14.5V. If I increase one to 16.5V, the other falls. I presume this is OK. What's important is probably the balance. Could this be because of the custom vacuum tube...- kalinov

Bravo Audio V1 Review - The Little Headphone Amp That Could
Part I: Bravo Audio V1 When I was 14 I remember listening to the Lion King soundtrack CD on a Magnavox Hi Fi system. I still remember how emotional the music was. A month ago I remembered that experience and I got my CD out. I don’t have the Hi Fi system anymore so I plucked it in my...- kalinov
