Does anyone have tube recommendations for chill electronic, chillwave, downtempo? I listen to everything but primarily electronic. Using HD6XXs.

Anyone have any advice or help on the best way to connect these? I bought a cheap RCA cable and it sounds ok. There's a little bit of static I hear when there's nothing playing. I'm willing to spend more if it improves the sound. I also have a Darkvoice 336 and wanted to buy a Modi 3 DAC so if...

actually think Apple discontinued optical audio through the audio jack and need to connect to something else

Thanks for your help. Any idea how I could plug the receiver into a MacBook pro? I was reading to use an optical audio connector that goes into the audio jack but again, far from an expert in this stuff.

Hey guys, My dad has an Onkyo TX-SR605 that he gave me. From what I've read, it's an entry-level decent receiver from around 2007ish and was wondering if it could drive the Massdrop X Sennheiser HD-6XX headphones. I've had these headphones for a while and never really had a chance to listen to...

Do you guys ever worry about the market drying up for tubes? I'm just worried about spending a lot of money on a headphone amp only to find out a few years from now prices skyrocket on the tubes I need. I would plan on the 339 being my one and only amp. From what I've read it seems like NOS are...

Thanks, monsterzero...what do you think of this deal on the La Figaro 339? And how long do tubes usually last for? Do you think the 339 is worth the price over the Darkvoice 336se? https://www.massdrop.com/buy/la-figaro-339-tube-headphone-amplifier

What would a decent set of tubes cost for the 339? Not the rare tubes costing hundreds because I simply can't afford that. I've only looked up some 6AS7's and seems like they're going for around from $15 to a couple hundred. So Would $100 for an entire set for the 339 be realistic or how much...

Are there places to find inexpensive tubes for the La Figaro 339? Looking for website recommendations. I'm considering getting this amp but tubes seem so expensive.

Hey guys, recently decided to get a pair of headphones and an amp from Massdrop that seemed like would make a good pairing. I'm completely new to this hobby and need some help. I want to be able to use the Darkvoice with my computer and a vinyl record player without having to switch cables, is...

Thinking about biting the bullet on the Fidelio X2's but Amazon US doesn't have any in stock except for third party sellers that are fulfilled by Amazon. Worried that these third parties may have old stock with all the issues. Am I better off waiting for some new stock from Amazon?

How does the stax headphone sound differ from he400is and TH-X00? I'd be open to spending more on a pair if the sound quality and the signiature is something I like. Wish there was a place by me to try all these headphones out lol. 

Are the new Gibson Fidelio X2s still worth it with all the potential defects? (glued pads, sound inconsistencies, metal flaking off etc)?

Hi all,   I'm very new to the world of audiophile equipment and don't know a lot about headphones, amps, etc., but I would like to buy a pair of headphones and an amp/dac for electronic music. I've read up on other head-fi posts about recommended headphones but was wondering if anyone could...
