Where can I buy FLAC files ripped from Vinyl?
While I don't think vinyl is inherently better than digital recording and CD's (technically it's worse), the reality is that most modern albums are released with a terrible dynamic range on CD, but a mastered with a much more acceptable dynamic range on vinyl.

What's next after DT 770 Pro?
I recently bought my first pair of high-quality headphones, the Beyer DT-770 Pro (80 ohm version). I choose this pair because I needed a closed-back, around-ear design that would work with my Fiio X5 but also with an iPhone.

Headphone information overload - help me pick my pair!
I recently re-discovered the world of higher quality sound and have been on a tear upgrading my equipment. Recently bought a Onkyo receiver from a friend who wasn't using it, and promptly upgraded the HTiB speakers to NHT Classic Three's. Now time to pick headphones... I've been reading...- KStreetSounds
