Schiit Magni Headphone Amplifier
I bought the Magni for my Modi now and I'm very happy with them. I couldn't find this good looking combo (I also like that the DAC and Amp are separate) for this good price without unnecessary features in Germany so I can recommend it to the latter ones and others. edit: I only don't like the...- frequencies

Linux and my USB Dac
I'm using a Modi with Ubuntu 13.10, no problems, just plugged in and selected as output source. You may try it and let us know [about this Audio GD unit].- frequencies

Sennheiser HD 600 Impressions Thread
Thanks for your infos. Bad that maybe there's no price-similar in-ear alternative to the HD600 but somehow doesn't surprise me. Maybe I just go with IE80 until a 600-in-ear is found/released. AFAIK even the HE-500 is not necessarily better than the 600. I'd say only for bass they better.- frequencies

Sennheiser HD 600 Impressions Thread
That's why I'm asking :) Obviously there's a good reason for in-ears to exist. So maybe some in-ear from Sennheiser would be a good HD600 equivalent?- frequencies

What would be an in-ear equivalent for the 600? (I understand it may be not as good)- frequencies

Because nobody replied I can now confirm that the Modi works with Linux (Ubuntu 13.10) by just plugging and selecting it as output source.- frequencies

DAC: Steinberg UR22 vs Schiit Modi
I ordered the Modi now (+ Crack as amp), but I may still need an XLR input for microphone. If I get one I'll do a comparison and reply here. But again, if someone has an DAC: ODAC or Modi and DAW: UR22 or 2i2 (or similar) and can compare them and post if a dedicated DAC is worth it, would be nice.- frequencies

Ok, good to know. Customs office is quite expensive (50€ for Crack as I understand it, will see tomorrow), customs frontier is 150€, but because it's over 22€ (price+shipping) I'd still have to pay import sales taxes ((price+shipping costs)*taxes (should be 19%)) for Modi.- frequencies

Yes to Crack (while I was writing Stan posted before me so..I should have quoted my reply). Me too no Speedball (but independent from this decision, I read that some (minority, only 1-2 posts somewhere) didn't notice an improvement at all, or even rather the opposite with Sp.).(not saying Sp. is...- frequencies

I'm in the search for a second different DAC+amp and came across Geek Pulse (the $300 version). Does anyone know if it's going to be any good? On indiegogo it's "last change to back geek pulse" and get it for $300 instead of $500 (igg.me/at/geekpulseaudio2).- frequencies

I agree. I don't know how good E18 is (or E10), but I read E18 is not bad. E10 is a bit old and FiiO/others learned a few in the last years in this price range.- frequencies

You can get the clipping intentionally by e.g. cranking up the volume in software. Make sure it's not over 100% there. I'd also say it's not the 600.- frequencies

Tell how the Magni is. Good if FiiO is good. Nice if things get smaller, better and more portable. A 40 ampere rectifier used to be very big and heavy, nowadays only one inch.- frequencies

Yes people should know this, so we teach them here because we are not payed testers/reviewers :D You didn't tell which DACs/amps you exactly own (or I can't read), but I hope for Desktop you have something better than this FiiO though XD- frequencies
