My heart skipped a beat on thursday. Received the crack+speedball I ordered about a month earlier, went to the website to download instructions and saw the fresh news of the sale. 106 euros saved if I had just waited one more month :p Anyways, I'm building my first crack now. Since I've done a...

I just got a really nice deal on the amp, just like I did on th HD800's. It was my first experience with tubes and I really like it, even tho I know the volume control has WAY too much gain. Channel seperation is decent enough for me, but then again I have nothing better to compare it too. I'm...

After your instructions, I made some tube adapters and soldered some wires, which I connected to the breadboard. Confirmed working on Hifiman EF2A! I do need to dial up the (normally immensely overpowered ) gain to around the maximum as well as the volume on my Macbook to get a decent output on...

Thanks to both of you for the very speedy replies. I'm in no hurry since it'll take at least a month for the breadboard to arrive. I'll keep cheking ebay and when I see nothing comes along, I'll try to find some time to make two of my own. Greetings Jan Mestdagh

Hello I'm quite new at this while tube rolling thing, but my grandparents seem to have quite a collection of tubes from the old days and I want to test them all. I've also ordered some '70s Voskhod 6N23P tubes to use in both my Little Dot and my Hifiman EF2A. Anyways, I found that it's...

  Just for future readers - a follow-up on my experiences with the PS-500's. I feel they've broken in a lot more the last week or two and I've grown to like them A LOT. I stand corrected and think they're mor a 15-20% upgrade from the 325is. Still not worth the premium price of 769 euros...

Judging your description of the beyerdynamic t1s, by all means go for them :) Never heard them but I think it can only be a good thing if the difference in sound is as big as the difference in price. Which is not the case between the 325is and ps500.

Hi Dennic,     I posted a similar thread here a few days ago on this subject but didn't get the reactions of people who own both the 325is and ps500 I hoped for. So I took the leap and just bought the PS500's yesterday. I should have been studying, but spent most of the past day listening to...

I Have a Fiio E17 "Alpen" portable amp, which doubles as a DAC. As far as I know it supports s/pdif input, but I've never used it.  AFAIK the only difference between using the DAC via USB or using it with the s/pdif in is that the USB will only give you a max quality of 24bit / 96kHz, where...

Thank you for the answers, you three :)   So, any people who own or have owned both? What were the differences according to you?   Thank you.

If Itunes is what bothers you, you could get an ipod 160 GB and rockbox it. Yes, it's not perfectely stable stable and the sound quality isn't comparable to a Fiio or a cowon player, but it does the trick, and cheap enough, too.    Just be cautious if you would go for a second hand ipod. I got...

Hello.   I've been a long time lurker here, but decided to register since I want to start taking part in the discussions and helping other people with my knowledge and experiences of Hi-Fi Headphones.   But first, may I ask you to help me with one decision I've been quite troubled with the...
