If a person had a pair of B&W 606 S2 bookshelf speakers and wanted to play music from a new M1-chip Apple iMac, what would be some good recommendations for good, reasonably priced amplifiers to drive these 8ohm speakers? (They recommend 30-120 watt amplifier. These will be in a small office...

Ok, you too.

Would be interested to hear your impressions. I Use mine with a FiiO X5 high resolution lossless player paired with a FiiO E12 Mont Blank Headphone Amp (Not really need with the IEMs but does help add a little bass).

I have had these for a little more than 2 years now and still love them. I did have to have one of the earbuds replaced (under warranty) but other than that I really love the sound of these things. I try to take extra good care of them as I doubt I'll ever be able to replace them. I see...

UPDATE:  I bit the bullet when they dropped the price by $110.  These were still expensive (for me) at $440, but I must say these things are awesome! My previous x11i earbuds were really really good, but these x20i monitors are on a whole different level.  The sound is in your head not in your...

My x11i headphones gave up the ghost for good recently and I found myself in the market for a replacement.  I had pretty much decided on the newer x12i as the x20i at the time were $549 and I just could not bring myself to pony up that much.  Then, recently I saw they were being sold all over...

I am sorry to say that I fell for the hype and bought a set of Klipsch M40s (before they discontinued them).  I have not had them but a couple of years and already the leather covering on one of the ear pads has started to split, exposing the foam inside.  I called Klipsch and they do not carry...

Well, lets revive this thread yet again.  I have these headphones also and just got off the phone with Klipsch and no, they don't sell replacement pads.  I searched hi and low and can't find any after market sources either.  For what these cans cost, I am very disappointed at how quickly these...

Beck:  Morning Phase

  Adorama (mainly a Camera place in NY) had a 24-hour sale on the M50x cans for $99 so I bought a pair.  I had seen some of the reviews so I figured for $99, why not try them out.   I have to say they do sound very very good considering the price.  Are they the best sounding cans money can buy...

I finally got a playlist to work on my X5.  Had to create it off-line (on computer desktop), then save it to X5.  But only way I can access it is browse the file folders.  I doesn't show up with the "Play list" selection on the X5 menu.  Apparently this is normal operations.  However, in the faq...

Yes.  iTunes allows you to TAG music by genre and album, artist, etc.   But when I copied the files to the X5, the genres for the music were not as they were in iTunes,  Hoping someone with iTunes and an X5 can help me understand why and what to do to resolve?

I bought the X10i (now discontinued and not available with warranty) and really loved them.  However, I had to return them under warranty due to the rubber splitting where the wires ender the ear buds.  They were replaced by Klipcsh with the newer X11i.  They have the same drivers but are a...

Ok, so I just bought a Fiio X5.  I love the sound, but I have a small issue I'm hoping someone can help me with.  I transferred all the song files from in iTunes collection onto my Micro SD card in the X5.  I did not drag and drop them from the iTunes program, but rather dragged and dropped them...
