Hi, I really only need support for 44.1KHz, 48KHz, 88.2KHz, 96KHz, 176.4KHz, 192KHz 16-24Bit spdif over RCA I am considering the SMSL PO100 PRO as the current top contender. Wondering if I'm missing anything. I am seeing clock quality is to be considered and now with i2s many more formats are...

When I listen to my music at work with my new westone 3's I find that I am using the lowest volume setting (HP out, 4th gen iPod) and I would still like the volume to be a little bit quieter. I want to get an amp to connect to a LOD for the 4G but I was unsure if minimum volume should be much of...

I have searched all over and cannot find anything on this. So could somebody just please tell me what the difference is? Thanks.

I guess you are right, I assumed that the definition of "sound quality" was implicitly defined by my examples. But basically all I can expect from a DAP is to as closely as possible represent the waveform given to it under loaded conditions. I guess this would result mostly in a more revealing...

Two days ago my 3rd gen iPod crapped out on me. Now you may ask why a 3rd gen iPod owner cares about sound quality, well I say that is because I bought it about 3 or 4 years ago. So I have been scouring the Internet looking for tests on such players, and came across this interesting article...

Im suprised that not alot of people have experienced this, I just thought it was farily common place.

alright Ill look into it, he just told me that this is what he mainly listens too trance/red hot chilli peppers/ goo goo dolls /classical

I never called it a "ZAP OF DOOM" but the BEAST layeth before thine eyes! as for the coasters these are REAL coasters not those cheap polycarbonate ones :P! They are in USE, GEEZ they help remove reflections of sound they open up the mids and give a cleaner more responsive bass!!

heres some eye candy, I just thought this was a cool picture click for the ULTRA SUPER BIG PICTURE!! I think i can see some light diffracting around the headband... :S for those that like stats... shutter speed 1/3 sec Aperature F/5.6 Focal lenght 85mm exposure time 1/2sec ISO 400...

WOW i have never even HEARD of the iM716 and there seems to be ALOT of love for them, is there anybody that owns and or has heard these and any others on the list can make a comparision?

i dont know of any, but if you want to go high end.. get a full frame sensor, then you arent wasting money on a lens you can ONLY use on a digital camera full frame sensor means that the sensor is 35mm the same size as film, therefore they use the same lenses, eg no barrel distortion. if any are...

would you reccomend the removal of the volume control mod?

Quote: Originally Posted by brn80 As far as removing the pads off, I haven't removed my LTD pads all the way out, but they are similar to my AD900's; you basically use a bit of twisting motion while gently tugging them off. Getting them off is fairly easy, it's putting them back on that...

I myself can give advice on headphones but when it comes to IEMS im lost. I told him to look at the following Super.fi 3 studio Etymotic ER6i and the 6i Shure E2c Westone UM1 I am actually interested in IEMS myself but my pricerange is more like 250USD maybe ill reward myself next...

So as a happy A900LTD owner, I just wanted to see who else would care to share their experiences of the not so painfull "getting zapped 5 times in the ear for the first time just before my probability and statistics midterm :S "... or equivelent.. on a more serious side of the issue, does...

I had a chance to listen to the Ultrasonne Proline 650, and they were pretty good, I however have not heard the HFI 700 but from what i have read they are more bassy and bloated (unnatural bass) than the HFI-650 OR the Proline 650, I own the AT - ATH-A900LTD and love them. From what i hear the...

are we allowed to bump?

ive requested spec sheets for both, but in the meantime what are youre feelings about the lowpass filter on the DAC-AH HA!, and just its general strong points that set it apart from others making it good? thanks I think its pretty final that im getting the Juli@ so im prolly gonna run a 50'...

do you know where i can find specs on the DAC-AH HA! and the Zhaolu D2.x? for example low-pass filter info, SNR, THD all that good stuff? thanks
