Interesting, it looks like you have the same cables connecting your IE phones in your avatar

Thanks for responding lugnut, you may want to add what equipment you used with your BlueV3 Dragons.. Your going balanced, excellent !!   I seen a heated disagreement over USB cables in another thread yesterday, then the thread moved right along nicely...   Looking forward to others...

Over the years I found as you change, upgrade  your Amps, Dac's, etc,etc our headphones can take on changes, and different variety of Headphone cables can help or hinder in this case, as well as other cables in the chain.   However let's just focus on Headphone cables, what's your favorite...

Just checking in again to say I will be there

Fester an update for you, not that you already don't know but, damm that Dac in the Amp is "Quite Impressive", breeds life into the mids and highs, not that the bottom end is lacking, as it certainly is not... First time for me using the Dac.and it was only with a generic cable. Also still only...

This may be an interesting read for some, someone pointed me to it..   http://www.head-fi.org/t/539740/mac-os-x-music-players-alternatives-to-itunes

Thank you Sterling1 and MM for patience with a noob

"if you want free i would seriously use foobar. it is not as easy as iTunes."   I plan to also explore foobar and jRiver.. I am aware jRiver is a paid player..   "you have the correct signal chain"   Good I have the chain right   "no mini usb for lps i know of"   What I was asking was...

Sterling1 thanks for your input as well.    I added ITunes and Winamp today to try   It looks like in order to use I tunes, it wants you to add your music library that's on an external drive into ITunes Library  in order to play music. . I know I can keep my files on an external for I...

MM does this sound correct... from computer USB >>>jitterbug with it's dragontail cable >>>>>>+ startech Hub  >>>>>+ thumb drive >>>>>+  linear power supply    Is there a USB out from the LPS so I can connect USB mini into DAC/AMP ..   Also are saying I need to go into internals of computer...

Trying to use a computer as a source for my music library, and being a from the non computer age group, I am holding my own, mastered adobe PS . However after reading this thread, and having to google all the different options (hardware) mentioned in this thread to understand what everyone was...

Its not that MM dislikes computer music, in this thread http://www.head-fi.org/t/834646/great-find-cleanest-usb-audio-best-sound he is sharing some tweaks he found to improve usb sound.. Additionally he said " i was a recording and sound engineer for over 40 years"  He just prefers spinners over...
