    Pioneer Elite N-50

    I just bough one and the sound is pretty formidable. i have a cambridge audio 851c and the N-50 holds its own. I do have trouble with a new seagate 1tb drive though. my old hitachi drive works just fine, as does a usb stick, but this seagate doesn't. it just says 'empty'. its formatted in fat32...

    Where should I go to step up from my Grado RS1?

    Oh I could certainly use the input! My dealer only carries focal, beyerdynamic, stax, and grado. I don't have access to Audeze, Hifiman, mrspeakers, and those other goodies that I really want to experience!

    Where should I go to step up from my Grado RS1?

    As it happens my local hifi store just started carrying the focal Elear/clear/utopia line so I brought in my ASL tube amp and my grados and set about doing some tests. I must say I'm am impressed with the focals. Brilliant. Both the Clear and Elear blew away my grado reference series. And the...

    Where should I go to step up from my Grado RS1?

    Hello folks. I am currently saving up to buy a step up from my current headphone, the Grado RS1, and I'm hoping to get some recommendations from some members. I bought the RS1's a few years back and I use them with my Cambridge Audio 851c CD player and ASL MG Head II tube amp. I really like...

    Amp/DAC for the LCD-X --- just to nail it, I already did my research

    Yeah if you already have the LCD-x  I would say go for the Soloist/biifrost combo. The Audeze phones seem to be very amp-picky so go with something that has been reported to be a great combo, rather than take an untested combo. I'm looking at upgrading my HD595 with a pair of planar magnetic...

    DACMagic Plus Impressions

    I would shell out the extra $$$ for the plus. the added features plus the better sound quality are worth it. I bought one about 2 years ago and loved it so much with my main system I bought a second one for my mini system. I can't even imagine listening to music in my home without it. It brings...

    Amp/DAC for the LCD-X --- just to nail it, I already did my research

    yeah, if my DM+ doesn't cut the mustard as a headphone amp the soloist sl is clear choice for me and I'll just use the dacmagic+ as a dac for it

    Amp/DAC for the LCD-X --- just to nail it, I already did my research

    I have been looking for a hp amp for LCD-2's. The soloist seems to be the top pick of most reviewers who have had the opportunity to compare. I also looked into the Schiit Lyr, but from what i have read and heard the 'tubeness' of the Lyr doesn't work so well...it seems having a really detailed...
