    CanJam SoCal 2015, March 28-29, 2015

    Glad to hear it isn't just a simple raffle, the SHaG sounds like a lot of fun and will definitely encourage me top visit way more of the exhibitors than I had planned    Also, although I'm pretty sure these phones will be available from some Head-Fier stationed at a table, I will be bringing...

    The JVC FX850..Woodie perfection?. (A review)

      Woah! Those are definitely what I need. They look like they extend much more than the stock silicon tips do.   Also, very nice picture! That AK with croc skin looks gorgeous, and of course, the FX850 as well

    The JVC FX850..Woodie perfection?. (A review)

    Just received my pair today and boy are they beautiful  and they sound just as good as they look! However, none of the tips seem to be the correct size for my always problematic ears.  I have pretty small ears and the smallest tip usually works with other headphones but because the housing is...

    The Fiio X5 Thread

    Can anyone give me a few tips on how (if possible) to manage the music on my Fiio X5 with FooBar 2k? I know the iPod needs the DLL file in order to be able to sync with Foobar but I thought it would be easy with the Fiio X5 because its simple USB Mass storage. I've been managing my music with...

    The Fiio X3 Thread.

    I'm trying to manually update my Media Library but it always freezes halfway through. Has anyone had this problem?   And does anyone know how to shuffle through every song?

    The Fiio X3 Thread.

    I just encountered a really weird bug or maybe I just dont really know all the functions of the X3 yet    While in the playback screen, where it shows the album artwork, it doesnt want to exit. I keep pressing back to return to the song list but it seems like its just stuck there. Hold is not...

    The Fiio X3 Thread.

    Oh my god.   I just received my Fiio X3 today. I was speechless as soon as I tried the demo songs. Insane soundstage (compared to previous iPod Touch 5th Gen), very clear, music doesnt sound anything like it did with my Ipod. It drives my Beyer DT 880 250 ohm and Senn HD 25i-II with ease. I am...

    Fiio X3 vs Fiio X5: A matter of sound...

    Most of my files are ALAC or 320 kbps on my iPod. My main concern is with the soundstage of the iPod, I recently purchased a cMoyBB 2.03 thinking that it would vastly improve the SS when using iPod-> cMoy-> Senn HD25i-II but I just realized that this issue was not rooted in amplification but the...

    Fiio X3 vs Fiio X5: A matter of sound...

    Ahhh, the exact set-up I will be using if I buy a Fiio X3/5. In your opinion does the sound stage become much wider than that of an iPod? I'm currently using an iPod Touch 5G with Senn HD 25i-II and I am really dissatisfied with the SQ and soundstage of it. Hoping that buying an X3/5 will be a...

    The Fiio X3 Thread.

    I'm contemplating buying a Fiio X3 to replace my iPod Touch 5G as my portable audio player because I really don't like the soundstage and DAC of the iPod. Does the SQ, sound stage drastically improve from the iPod to the X3? I currently use a Dragonfly v1.2 on my laptop and I really enjoy the SQ...

    Bravo Audio - funny looking little tube amps

    I definitely see the improvements that came with these modifications though so I'm really liking them  Also, should I do that crosstalk mod even if I'm not really bothered by it? Well, I actually havent searched for the crosstalk as I use the 3.5mm output instead of RCA

    Bravo Audio - funny looking little tube amps

    I've already modified my Bravo V2 amp with IRL510, LM317A, and 5k trim pots. I was told that the MOSFET heatsinks would all get a bit hotter but I'm a bit worried at the amount of heat it generates.Is it normal for the IRL510s to get so hot? I also noticed the tube has gotten a bit hotter (I've...

    Just Starting

    Although it's been mentioned earlier, yet again, I will re-iterate and agree with the others that the Senneheiser HD 25i-II sounds like a good match for you, perfect balance between lows, mids, highs, closed back that isolates very well, and incredibly durable (I've sat on these MANY times )

    Beyerdynamic DT 880 32 Ohm or 250 ohm? (With Dayton DTA 120 amp)

    If anyone is ever looking for the same answer to the question I asked myself, i'll be posting a comparison soon of the 32 and 250 ohm Beyers being driven by the Dayton amplifier. Just received the BD DT880 250 today and will be testing tomorrow    Btw, thank you SteveHiFi for your response :)

    Sennheiser MOMENTUM Review

    This happened so much to me! I lost all hope in Amazon after I went on a headphone shopping spree. Bought Senn hd380Pro, faulty headphone jack, bought Senn HD558, clicking on left channel, bought Senn HD598, again head jack... ...happily settled with my Beyer DT 880

    Sennheiser MOMENTUM Review

    I often hear many people (and review sites) praising the Sennheiser Momentum sound. With that, I was surprised to hear my friend thought them to be really thin sounding and I decided to try them out myself at my local Best Buy. Upon trying them, I completely agreed with my friend's judgement of...

    Bravo Audio - funny looking little tube amps

    Just received my cute little Bravo V2 today, and I feel like it sounds pretty good with stock, however I'm excited to hear it upgraded with IRL510, LM317A, crosstalk mod, and Mullard tube that are all on there way. Man, I love how that blue LED looks under the tube, such a nice glow

    Beyerdynamic DT 880 32 Ohm or 250 ohm? (With Dayton DTA 120 amp)

    I currently own a Dayton DTA 120 amplifier which I'm loving. Recently, I decided to purchase the Beyerdynamic DT880 32 ohm version thinking that I would use them during train rides or in the car but that idea quickly flew by. I ended up purchasing Sennheiser HD 25i II to use while on the road...
