    Pair of NOS R10 on Flea Bay.... Drool

    Not sure if anyone else has noticed these for sale, but seeing such an iconic headphone still sitting there, brand new in the box, makes me warm and fuzzy! Granted, I'd never pay what the seller is asking, but I'm sure it's worth it to someone!   For your oogling pleasure:  ...

    Someone got lucky with some HP1000...

    Am I missing something or did someone just outright steal these? I'm sure it was someone from here. Who was the lucky dog!?  ...

    Opinions needed: Upgrade Power Regenerator or DAC?

    I have the opportunity to trade in my PS Audio Power Plant Premier Regenerator for the new and improved P5 Regenerator for $1,500. The power in my home is terrible, so this is somewhat appealing. Also, the new regenerators are made in the USA, as opposed to the previous model, which is assembled...

    Vortex Math, for the future!

    If the slightly 'political' intro to this video makes it taboo for head-fi, please remove this post. However, it is extremely interesting and I think you folks will enjoy it.   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yzfgq1zv8jg\\   ~Greg

    Shure "Support" Less Than Helpful

    <rant>   I purchased my SE530 PTH back in October of 2007. I had been using my Cowon (iAudio) X5L and had no complaints. The tips I found produced the most pleasurable sound, to my ears, were the gray silicone, size small.   Recently, I made the mistake of selling my X5L, mainly because...

    Auzentech X-Fi Forte Question

    I currently have an Auzentech X-Fi Forte which is connected to my external DAC via coaxial/bnc (and is kept in audio creation mode). Here's the issue I'm having... I use WinAmp with the otachan ASIO .dll and also keep ventrilo open at the same time. Typically, I can have music playing and...

    Woo Audio Headphone Stand Slides

    I'm sure I'm not the first person to notice this, but the HPS-H Stand from Woo Audio slides all over the place, especially when on a slick surface. I've just been dealing with it, but it is annoying. Does anyone know where I can get some super low profile (1 mm?) non-skid feet to put on...

    Current sound cards which support CMSS-3D over S/PDIF

    As the title says, I'm looking for a makeshift list of the sound cards currently available which are capable of outputting CMSS-3D over S/PDIF (I know some cards cannot do this, they only output CMSS-3D from the speaker/headphone out). This will be fed into a DAC and the used with my D7000. I am...

    Need Advice for Painting Maple

    Hello guys, I just purchased this (Maple Headphone Stand - $24.95 : TTVJ, Todd The Vinyl Junkie) stand from Todd The Vinyl Junkie, due to its similarities to a Denon stand I like. However, the stand is unfinished maple. I could really use some advice as to which techniques, paints, etc would...

    Calling All Custom Headphone Stand Makers

    I've always been fond of this design, but despite my best efforts to try to get Denon to sell me one, they claimed this item was strictly for promotional purposes and was not available for retail purchase. My question is... are any of you guys who are currently in the business of doing custom...

    Looking for a Headphone Shop in Manhattan to Audition Cans

    Most of the headphones/amps I have purchased have been blind purchases. Sure, I've done tons of research, taken advice from friends, and read reviews, but I don't really know of any stores in Manhattan that tailor to the high-end headphone market. J&R no longer has their headphone wall (at least...

    Is there any way to use my usb mic with my iPhone?

    I used a line cable to connect my iPhone to my sound card's Line In (Prodigy HD2 > AMP > Headphones), which works fine for audio, but I'm not sure if there is a way to use my usb microphone for voice instead of the iPhone's mic.

    Quick Power Cable Question

    I just ordered two Iron Lung Jellyfish power cords (one for my PPA v2 + STEPS and one for my source). Both components are currently plugged into an APC Surge Protector (nothing fancy, just a 50 ish dollar surge). Question is, is it self-defeating to plug these aftermarket power cables into the...

    Audiotrak Prodigy HD2, Windows XP x64, and ASIO - Need Help Please

    I just installed Windows XP x64 on my desktop in order to gain the benefits of a 64 bit platform, while avoiding Vista. However, I have run into a slight problem. I was able to install the HD2 with no issues, the control panel works, etc. When I went to install Winamp with the ASIO plug-in, I...

    You've got to be kidding me Shure...

    Did anyone else receive the e-mail advertising the limited edition Shure t-shirt with the purchase of such and such a product? The one that reads "My Earphones Cost More Than Your (then there is a picture of an mp3 player)" I love my Shure earphones, but give me a break... what kind of elitist...

    Need help deciding on a set of interconnects: UPDATED

    I'm currently having a PPA v2 + STEPS built. In the meantime, I'm trying to find the best set of interconnects to connect it to my Audiotrak Prodigy HD2. Based on the posts I've read, it seems the Blue Jeans Cable is the best bang for the buck cable out there. I also read some positive comments...

    New to the world of HP Amps: Where can I purchase these?

    I've been a member here for a while, yet somehow have avoided purchasing a headphone amp for quite a while. I recently purchased a pair of Denon D2000 and a Audiotrak Prodigy HD2 with some upgraded opamps and have been loving the combination, however, I think it's time I venture into the world...

    Audiotrak Prodigy HD2: Some fundamental questions

    I just purchased an Audiotrak Prodigy HD2 Sound Card and op amp upgrade at the recommendation of Head-Fi. I am enjoying the card thoroughly, but I do have some questions that I hope can easily be cleared up. I was inclined to believe that the op amps I upgraded on the card do, in fact, effect...

    How can I tell if I'm running "bit perfect?"

    I just bought a Audiotrak Prodigy HD2 (with some new opamps), Denon D2000, and Audio Technica AT2020 USB Condenser mic, which I'm really enjoying. Previously I was using a mediocre sounding Sennheiser PC166 headset, mostly for online chat/gaming, but I decided to step it up, seeing as I...

    I really like the modern styling of this stand, has anyone seen it for sale anywhere, or is it strictly a promotional item?

    Looking for high quality headphone extension cable

    I tried a search, but I couldn't find what I was looking for. I need a headphone extension cable, preferably no more than 5 feet long. I had no problem finding no frills extension cables, but I want something head-fi quality that won't effect sound quality. The main reason I need it is so I...

    I'm in need of some guidance: Home Can Help
