Bluetooth speakers.  Let's talk about them.   You either love them or hate them, or just use them for podcasts  I've been getting more into Bluetooth speakers in the last year or so as I realize they're the future of stereo listening and the old 2.0/2.1 system wired up is becoming outdated...

Does anyone still have this set? Is it any good? I heard it used to be popular for recabling and looks similar to the Portapro.

THIS PAGE IS TO SEPARATE WALNUT MODDING TALK FROM PLAIN WALNUT TALK.   There is more techical talk than player talk in the main thread  and wanted to give the non-techies a place to discuss their player as well as the nerds a place to nerd out.   As always, before posting, read the FAQ...

I had a set of HS 25 1 ii years ago and have been missing them a lot. Was checking Amazon to get another set, and came across some I'd never heard of (and can't find much info about) called HD 25 Light  ...

I am trying to repair some IEMs for a friend   The problem is the IEMs were stepped on and separated in two. You have the front half, with the nozzle and driver, which is supposed to be glued to the back piece, which has the MMCX connector. When the break happened, it seems a lot of copper got...

This thread is dedicated to the Walnut V2 WAV Player. I have never owned the previous version Walnut DAP and found out about this from the Obscure Chinese DAPs thread. Like the Zishan DSD, this DAP has been gaining popularity fast - and for good reason. As such I decided to make a thread to...

Found a bad cap on my zamp. Never mind...     This is a weird one I am struggling with, and not sure if it's the sign of a dying DAC. This piece of gear has been in use for about a full decade now anyway.   Turned on my headphone amp today with foobar2000 as usual, but the output from my...

It has been debated hotly for years about whether an AK4309 VM (not AVM) equipped PS1 with the RCA outs on the back are worth it for CD players.   I have had it going into my steteo and compared to some high end and vintage PCDPs (no full size PCDPs around as well as FLAC rips thru my DACs.  ...

I recently grabbed a few of these Sony Ericcson buds for cheap. I remember them sounding strangely good and I want to put them against today's earbud champs.   The have mic and remotes, are in a j-hook style, and after hearing so many legendary reviews of these buds over the years, well, I...

I get this popup any time I reply for the last couple days. Can't edit on the desktop site anymore cause of it as of today.   just red text that says "We're sorry, but there's been an error in our system, and we can't complete your request."   If it's a reply, i see the "1 new post" and can...

I recabled a set of headphones this weekend but have yet to put them back together because I forgot to accommodate for the larger wire, and have no drill, so I need to find a good way to re-size the cable exit on the housing for the new wire.   Got me to thinking though, I never did a good...

I saw these happen on eBay recently. They seem to be about $53 everywhere   http://www.ebay.com/itm/Seconds-kill-storm-LPS-15W-15VA-Linear-power-supply-MINI-Type-DC-5V-24V-/131850920466?hash=item1eb2ed6212:g:HPEAAOSw3YNXY6JN   Anyone know if they're legit?   if they are any safe i'd gladly...

Looking to build a DIY thing for my computer.   Apologies if tis belong in DIY. i couldn't tell.

I want to use a proper regulated supply for my EMU 0404. been using a zip power supply for a while but its sketchy and makes the 0404 act unrpredicabe sometimes.   i know some crazy people have directly wired a 5v linear bench supply directly into the +/v 5v lines and  reported improved sound...

I still rock one of these. I build all my new systems into it beacuse I love it just as much as i did in 2004.   If thre's a better site for me to ask this on, feel free to let me know. It's a Xaser III from 2003 or 2004, bought new. still in awesome shape and has the original fan controller...

Things I liked a lot about the iDSD Micro: great sound quality killer (power wise) built in headphone amp, but headphone amp was pretty plain, unimpressive otherwise   ODAC was great overall... loved it. had a rev A, sold it to a friend. would consider getting a newer revision one, they...

Tried on my smartphone not on wifi and two different computers... can't seem to upload any images to either posts or classifieds I post. Gets stuck on the "image uploading..." screen indefinitely. Not sure it's a problem on my end given i tried a few devices and my home internet vs my phone's...

3rd gen was my favorite. Does FiiO LOD work with it?

The Edimun has been getting some attention in the  Earbuds thread lately. They have been mentioned as somewhat of a legend - taking a $7 Edifier earbud, retuned and recabled with De'mun's custom cable.   @golov17 and I bought ourselves some on the same day making us the first De'Mun customers...

There is very little info on these aside from some threads that haven't been posted in since 2014.   I am looking for studio headphones for recording specifically and was intrigued by the review of the AKAI (also a M-Audio headphone I think?) saying it was completely resistant to EQ boosting...

Lately in several different threads I've seen more and more people posting about powering their headphones from the speaker jacks on the backs of their older stereo receivers.  I remember doing this about 10 years ago with some SR-60 and an NAD 3150. it blew my mind, i've never heard that much...

I'm not myself, but I've been thinking about making my car's stereo nicer, as I spend an awful lot of time in it. Do any Head-Fi'ers do car audio here? I have no idea where to start looking. I'm not a car person at all but I'm comfortable with non-car stereos and didn't think it could be all...

I used this feature a lot on the old version of the site. I'm sure I'm just looking in the wrong places, but I can't seem to find where I can change what's showing in my signature classifieds-wise. I went all through my preferences a couple times and tried some different options out, but no luck...

I have my preamp/headphone amp hooked up to my stereo with a 6 foot RCA to unbalanced 1/4" cable, which is not ideal at all! It's a cheap cable from Amazon and works fine, but is both way too long and not very pretty.   I remember something like 7-8 years ago it wasn't hard to go on the...
