Basically the power switch on the Vali 2 would not actually move to the on position. Upon attempting to use a little persuasion, I snapped...- theque

Raspberry Pi 3 / Asus Tinker Board Roon Endpoint issues. (need assistance)
I have configured my Asus Tinker Board and Raspberry Pi 3 as Roon Endpoints. The reason I bought both is to see if the Asus Tinker Board with external WiFi antenna would be a better choice for a wireless endpoint. My first test was hooking it up to my Schiit Modi 2U / Magni 2U. Wow, this...- theque

Home "Theater" help needed.
Ok, let me start with stating that I must be a complete moron here because I have never considered a Headphone setup for our home "theater." I put that in quotes because even though I have a 75" 4K TV hanging on our wall (we only have a single TV in our condo), the sound system is simply a...- theque

Portable DAC/Amp daily usability testing.
I know this is Head-Fi, and making comparisons on anything but subjective sound quality between products seems rare. I get it, we are here to discuss sound quality of source equipment, DAC’s, Amps, speakers, headphones, earbuds, etc… However, I would like to discuss a dilemma I am having...- theque

All, After hours of research I have found the following 10 DAC/AMP combos to be in the mid - high end of the spectrum. Unfortunately, there are only a few reviews on each, and very few reviews which compare them to each other. Therefore, I am attempting to start a thread where people can...- theque

Looking for advise from Recent CIEM purchasers
I purchased the Shure SE535LTD and unfortunately it seems as if I have gimpy ears, because they press on a spot of cartilage that I cannot fix and it is very painful after an hour, and almost unbearable after 2 hours.

Micro-A to Mini-B USB Cable
So if anyone owns an S3 or Note 2, you know that your phone (With Jellybean) supports USB out that bypasses the internal DAC. In order to use it with a DAC you need it to be in host mode (i.e. plugging in to the phone Micro-A USB). This is commonly done with an OTG cable. The problem is the...- theque
