Hi guys. I am looking to move on from Onkyo DP-X1 and am looking for an endgame portable setup. I have the Chord Mojo 2. What recommendations would you make for: DAP (to output to Mojo 2) - Cayin N3Pro? Headphone amp: Cayin C9 (is this even needed?) Headphones - Beyerdynamic T1/Focal...

Yes, I’m using the onkyo music player app. OS is 5.1.1. Tried the settings and search for external devices but no luck. Tried other streaming apps and no joy.

Hi guys. I have recently bought the mojo 2 and tried connecting my onkyo do-x1 to it via usb but failed. I’ve used various micro usb to micro usb and micro to usb c otg cables including the ifi one but nothing happens. I’ve tried to go through all settings but to no avail. Any help would be...

Hi everyone! I have very recently started building a headphone setup after years of listening to speakers growing up. As I started travelling more, a headphone setup became necessary. So I purchased the HD650 and later, the HD800. I am using a bottlehead Crack with speedball for valve and HDVA...

Im in! And now that ive moved to Kent, im even closer to London. I'll apply for a leave well in advance this time :)

Quote: Sweet! I am gutted that I missed the meet. No one would cover my weekend on-call shift :( On the bright side, the shift provided me the last bit of savings needed to spend on audio goodies! I wanted to do a test between the Invicta and HDVD800. Ive already decided to buy the HD800...

I auditioned them and they sounded much much better than the P3 or 451. They are giving me a 5 year warranty on em too!  

I am getting a good deal on a refurbished P5 costing me about 110 pounds(174USD) and the condition is near mint. A P3 is available for 60 pounds. A new AKG K451 is for 58 pounds. Which one dyou think I should go for? Main use is for portable use. I have the HD650s at home paired with the...

Question: the bottlead's being shipped. I have a generic auxilliary cable. Any idea what cables i'd need to run from my source to the crack? Also, ive ordered the O2Dac+amp so what cable would i need to run from source to DAC?

There is bass but it's impact is very very low. My macbook pro is the 2009 version. Anyway, im still waiting on the amps. I'll put in a good amount of hours listening to various tracks till the amps arrive. Then I should be able to hear the difference an amp makes with my headphone. The Crack...

Thats great to know :) I can't wait for epiphany and Bottlehead to ship my stuff to me! Im loving my headphones and the overall jump in sound quality and comfort(I don't know if its a psychological thing but i think the sound is getting better with every listening session). I never really liked...

Anyone think if I dont find the sound awesome un-amped, there wont be much difference to me when amped? After a lot of listening to music downloaded from hdtracks, I find the unamped quality good but not quite upto the hd-650 hype which I believe is when paired with the right amp. I cant really...

So my first ever purchases were: Sennheiser HD 650 Bottlehead Crack with Speedball upgrade Epiphany O2DAC/Amp combo   Since the headphones arrived earliest, I plugged me straight into my macbook pro and fired up my lossless tracks. I must say im not very overwhelmed and understandably...

Hi Oliver! Im in Slough and am interested in placing an order for both the Amp and Dac. Here's what i want to know. If I buy the amp and DAC separately, would that perform the same as the amp and DAC combined model? Ipurchased a bottlehead crack and was hoping to buy one DAC to use with any amp...

There were 25 in all and they sold out in a day and a half. I have paid them but they havent contacted me yet regarding the shipping. Do they ship to UK? And another noob question: What cables do I need to connect my MBP to the Crack? This is my very first foray into audiophile territory. Im...

What about the ODAC?

So here's how my current setup's would look like(at the moment):   Macbook pro(Fidelia)>Bottlehead crack>Sennheiser HD650 or T1   Any additions or changes? And any specific optical OUT cable i should use? I just realized i know next to nothing about cables so if anyone can recommend any...

Hi Chris!   Yes, soon as I saw the Bottlehead deal, I went for it. I love DIY and im not that bad with a soldering iron. Plus a lot of DIYers say the step-by-step manual with the bottlehead is amazing. Im thinking of the Sennheiser HD 650 as it's from £275 pounds on amazon vs Beyerdynamic...

Hi all. First of all, let me quickly introduce myself. Im a 26 yr old who has just been bitten by the audiophile bug a few days ago. I took study leave(im a doctor) and spent all that time researching the net for pre-amps, amps(tube vs solid state), DACs(and do i really need em?!?), sources etc...
