Fostex TH900 MkII
I recently purchased the TH900 mk2's together with a Schiit Valhalla 2. I since read that the Valhalla 2 is not suitable for low impedance headphones, and the Asgard would be a better match. Interested to hear people's thoughts - should I get the Asgard instead?- wixy

I was wondering if anyone could offer some suggestions on good 'surround sound' headphones for gaming purposes? Are there any? Happy to hear also from people convinced that regular headphones would be better.- wixy

Got my ms-1i's recently, but can't help but think the imaging is slightly off centre towards the left. When I switch them around, it sounds like the imaging is slightly off centre towards the right. Changing source equipment makes no difference. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there any...- wixy

I'm going to Hong Kong and Shenzhen in a few days. Thinking I might try to pick up some bargains, whether it be a new source, amp or headphones. Can anyone offer some advice on places to go? I know Shenzhen is where a lot of the major chinese audio manufacturers are, so is it possible to...- wixy

Amplifier problem?
I recently bought a new amplifier, and have noticed that when I turn it on, there is a crackle in both speakers. Also, when I adjust the volume when nothing is playing, it sounds a bit crackly. I can't seem to notice any problems when music is playing. Is this any cause for concern?- wixy

Serious ABX tests: Sony Discman vs High-end sources
On the weekend I did a comparo of my modded Zhaolu d2 with discrete headamp vs the headphone jack of a 10 year old denon cd player, and could observe no differences! The denon was even driving my k701's with no difficulty. This does make me wonder about the audible differences between digital...- wixy

Best complete turntable setups in the $1500-$2000 range?
Thanks heaps for the advice. The VPI Scout sure sounds good at that price, however I discovered that here in Australia, it costs $3000AUD! Which is pretty high considering the australian dollar at the moment, where $1650USD = $1950AUD. So i'm afraid i'd have to rule it out. I quite like the...- wixy

How to use my headphones with an amp with no headphone socket?
I have an EL84 single ended triode amplifier (good for about 5 watts per channel at a guess), that i'd like to somehow use to drive my headphones. How would I go about actually doing this, given that the amp doesn't have a headphone socket? Is this even worth trying? I don't know much...- wixy
