    Something better than the Topping D3X Pro+?

    Hi there, I use Topping D3X Pro+ with Headfiman Sundaras and Sennheiser 595 (Sundaras 99% of the time, though). I wonder if there's a DAC/headphone amp combo under 350$/€ with which I could hear a significant sound improvement over the D3x Pro+. Thanks a lot!

    I don't like Sundara closed back: is it worth to try Sundara open back? And... what alternatives?

    The title says almost all: I bought closed back Sundara but I don't like them. I REALLY like their pumping and very controlled bass, but they always lack some sparkle in the mid/upper mid range and to me voices and guitars and similar instruments always sound a bit dull and sometimes too...

    My Asus Essence STX is dead. What DAC to buy?

    Hi there, out of the blue my trusty Asus Essence STX began to emit a sort of static noise which almost drowns the normal audio signal (that is still there anyways). I've tried to do everything that came to my mind but to no avail. Now, what DAC would you suggest I buy? Please consider this: -...

    Bluetooth in-ears similar to Klipsch R6i?

    Hi there, I have a pair of Klipsch R6i and I really like the sound (the build quality is horrendous but that's another matter)... I'd like to know if there are bluetooth in-ears with similar quality (and rock music oriented) that are not too expensive (less than 100$ possibly). Any advice is...

    Better in-ear replacement for Sony MDR-EX100? B

    Hi there,   I'm using Sony MDR-EX100 earphones with my iPod and smartphone, and I would like to get something better without spending too much. I got those after several, more expensive earphones broke down in less than 10-12 months (always due to cable issues). Here's what I would like:   -...
