An interesting battery powered option - Scherzo Audio Andante Welcome to Scherzo Audio - Home of the Andante Headphone Amplifier. Has anyone seen/heard this? Going for $390 on the 'Gon. JP

Excuse my ignorance but I can't find any mention in MF literature of the DAC in the XCAN v8P? The user manual does not reference a DAC. Can someone help me here? Many thanks!

Looking for inexpensive (less than$100) USB DAC/Amp for use with my laptop. These three seem to fit the bill. Any thoughts as to which one to go with? One other caveat - must be USB and/or battery powered! Many thanks!

Thinking about picking one up and can't decide between the Flip MinoHD and Kodak Zi8. Same price but Kodak has bigger screen, SD card storage vs fixed storage for MinoHD. Love Mino's smaller size though....Anyone have one of these or doing current research?? Thanks! JP

Just saw this on eBay. Looks to be quality construction and components with - point to point wiring. And the price is right!! Where's that wallet of mine! J. Sound Lab Headphone Tube Valve Amp Trans-output - eBay (item 200373304950 end time Sep-12-09 13:35:46 PDT) Specifications...

I an looking to purchase a bike for the wife and me. I am interested in cruiser type models such as the Trek Navigator or Specialized Expedition. I want to keep the bike under $400 each if possible. Any suggestions for comfy cruiser type bikes?

I am this close to pulling the trigger on an Amazon Kindle 2 - does anyone use a Kindle 1 or 2 - if so- can you share your experiences - good or bad?

I just recently received my Lunch Box Pro and I have to tell you that I am floored by what I am hearing from this little titan. My HD600s never sounded so good - even with amps from 2 to 4 times the price of the LB. Overall, the sound is sweet yet very powerful with great impact. I popped in a...

I just picked up a Lunch Box Pro and it should arrive next week. I understand that the 6FC7 tubes may be difficult to come by. Does anyone have any advice on where to pick up a pair? eBay searches have come up with zero NOS options thus far and it looks like Tube Depot was out last time I...

Just received my Mapletree Ear+ HD from the good Doctor and I thought I would share some pics with you all. It's sounding wonderful with my HD600s w/Cardas Cable. I am more than thrilled with the sound and can't wait to get this properly burned in!

It is really interesting to see how opinions have swayed regarding the K701. When it first was released and for quite a time thereafter, it was at the top of evereyone's list. Now it seems the K701 is not only forgotten but regularly dumped on. Is this more a FOTM scanario or do folks have...

Looking for a home amp to effectively drive some AKG K702s. I am considering the Heed CanAmp, Bada HP-12, Millett Hybrid MiniMax or possibly something else. I listen primarily to Jazz and some Classical. Total cost of amp must be $500 or less. Many thanks! John

Would the Hybrid Millett MiniMax do an above adequate job driving the K702s?? I am putting together a new system for for under $700. Looking to stray a bit from my HD580s - they will remain in another system. Looking for more separation and soundstage for classical and jazz listening! Any...

Well folks, I thought I saw everything until I noticed this! Your thoughts??? AudiogoN ForSale: Monument Reference Sig. Series HDd JP

I just picked up a brand spankin' new RudiStor NX-02 (Sistema) Headphone amp off of Amazon for a little over $300! Please help me choose some cans. The easy answer is Ultrasone (since this amp is touted as customized for the Proline models) but I don't know enough about them. Should I look to...

Hi - I am considering the purchase of the Pro-Ject Dock box: Pro-Ject Audio Systems I want to use this with a new iPOD 120GB Classic and need to know if the new classic has a 30-pole dock connector. Can anyone confirm this? Thanks, John

Any thoughts/ideas about this USB Amp/DAC? Build quality/parts? I like the case-work..... Mini USB DAC Desktops Processors Headphone Amplifier - eBay (item 250329011055 end time Dec-20-08 10:03:58 PST) Thanks, JP

I am looking for an iPOD cradle that has a line out function that is reasonably priced. I know ALO makes them but the are quite costly. Again it must be a cradle not just a cable. Many thanks! John

Hi - I am looking for a POWERFUL solid state (home/desk) amp that will drive my AKG K601s. Thinking of the Heed CanAmp. Inquired about the Original Master but it is discontinued. What other powerful amps are out there that would drive these phones with authority? Jazz/Classical/Acoustic is my...

Hi all - I recently picked up a set of AKG K601s and I'm loving their sound signature. I am using a LD MKIII amp but somehow I feel it's not doing the 601s justice. I think these cans need more juice. Can anyone suggest an amp that will get the best from these phones? I'd like to keep it...

I don't know much about these phones or the DT-660 (72$)! Can anyone fill me in on these? I do know the 440s are open and the 660s closed but that's about it.

Looks like my LD MKIII has developed a problem. The power remains on even when the switch is in the off position. The only way to shut it down is to unplug the power cord. Snapping the power switch on and off does nothing. This is very frustrating as the unit is not very old. I assume this has...

EBay runs the gammit - high and low prices. I assume the $50 versions are fake. Can anyone recommend a place where I can pick up an authentic pair at a good (cheap) price? Thanks, JP
