    Where did the bass go? (DT-770)

    I've owned my beyerdynamic DT-770 Pro (80 Ohm) for almost 5 months now. The bass on these cans was exactly what I was looking for. For me, it was very involving. I also own a pair of DT-990 Pro (250 Ohm) which I like. I guess you could say that I'm a beyer-fan. Now having said all this, the...

    Looking for a cheap coaxial S/PDIF output.

    I know, this has been asked a million times before. But I do need some advise in picking a reasonable priced soundcard with bitperfect coaxial s/pdif output. Up till now I was using a Sonica Theater (which I bought cheap) USB soundcard. I'm still having problems with hickups, pop, clicks in...

    Phono pre-amp for Dual CS-505-2

    I just bought a used Dual CS-505-2, including 35 records for €40,-. Now I need a phono pre-amplifier and I was wondering what a reasonable purchase would be. I have no intention of buying something which is 10 times more expensive then the player itself. I found a simple, budget, preamp...

    Maximum input level X-Can V3

    I have a question about the maximum input level the X-Can can take without damaging it or drastically reducing the lifetime of the valves. First some information about my setup. I'm using the DAC of my Behringer Ultramatch Pro SRC 2496. The outputs of the Behringer are balanced, so I made...

    Foobar + USB audio clicks problem solved!

    Since I'm using my Sonica Theater USB for the bitperfect SPDIF output to my SRC2496 I sometimes noticed some pops or clicks in the audio using foobar. The Sonica Theater USB is USB-powered and has no option for external power. I couldn't find what was causing this. So I started trying...

    Beyer + X-Can V3 ???

    Since I'm starting to suffer from upgradeitis I was wondering how the synergy is between the Beyerdynamic DT-990pro (250 Ohm/pre-2005) and a regular X-Can V3. I also would like to use the DT-770pro (80 Ohm/pro-2005) with it. I'm not shy of a little bass but I wouldn't like it to be bloated...

    I just remembered I own a Revox B291

    Yeah, it sounds silly and I'm kind of reluctant to step into the world of vinyl (the old wallet problem) but I just remembered that I own a Revox B291 turntable. Picture: http://www.vinylengine.com/phpBB2/al...1519bbb2ef004d Anyone know how this baby performs? It was a gift so it cost me...

    Line Level Attenuators - opinions

    I would like some opinions about line level attenuaters. I have a Behringer Ultramatch Pro SRC-2496 which has a professional line level output (+4 dBu) on its XLR outputs. It's a bit hot and I would like to attenuate that to consumer line level (-10 dBu). There are a few options I think. One...

    What are our signs?

    Since I saw so many birthdays coming along in the new posts lately, I was wondering if there is something to be said about the people who are into head-fi, regarding astrology sign. Nothing scientific I'm looking for, just curious, because my own birthday will be coming up soon as well...

    Dolby Volume technology

    I just read an article which says that Dolby Laboratories has developed a schematic which deals with the perceived higher audio level of commercials between tv broadcasts. The full story can be read here: http://www.tgdaily.com/2007/01/18/ces2007_dolby_volume/ Interesting read, I think...

    DT 990 Pro + portable amp (suggestions?)

    Hi all, After using my Beyerdynamics DT-770 pro (80 Ohms) for a while with my Little Dot Micro+ I decided to buy the DT-990 pro (250 Ohms) version. This is not the 2005 version! The sound I got from the DT-770/LDM+ combo wasn't too bad, although the bass became a little bit recessed with...
