    FiiO M15 Audio Player | Dual AK4499EQ | 7490 mAh Battery | 64 GB ROM | $1299.99

    I updated my M15 a couple of days ago. I now can't seem to have it display a list of the albums I ripped to the microSD card I mounted in the M15. I assume I'm doing something wrong. I would appreciate any suggestions.

    Raal Ribbon Headphones - SRH1A

    A little too close to tin foil for my liking.

    Headamp Blue Hawaii Special Edition

    Congratulations. At this point you are probably already enjoying it, and so this email comes a little late, but be aware that the amp and power supply take a little time to start working after you turn them on. This is no issue whatsoever except when you turn the amp on for the first time...

    Raal Ribbon Headphones - SRH1A

    Jeweltopia, Sorry to hear about your situation. My son has bad migraines, and I can understand that the last thing you want is another trigger. Assuming that you have not yet sent the phones back and are willing to try them on your head, what might help you wear them is to tighten the top...

    Raal Ribbon Headphones - SRH1A

    Take a listen to Vikingur Olaffson's CD with the title Johann Sebastian Bach. Through your SR1a, of course.

    Help ! STAX 009 spare part

    I agree about the part being defective. I am very careful with my headphones, and nevertheless this part broke on both the right and the left side. I discovered that I had some clear buttons that had the correct size hole for the screw and that were large enough to hold the strap without being...

    Raal Ribbon Headphones - SRH1A

    BrowChan, You can gently flatten the curve of the springy steel piece a little to reduce the pressure. Also, it is easy to fit ZMF CoPilot pads over the steel piece; this spreads the weight out a little better and also would move the temple pads slightly higher on your head, which would...

    Need help for my BHSE

    I have never encountered that. I suggest that you describe the situation in an email to support@headamp.com and see what they recommend.

    Need help for my BHSE

    donald123, One thing you can do is to switch the input cables just to make sure that the problem is not with your source. If the source is OK, then the problem may well be with the SR-009, a small percentage of which encounter imbalance problems. There are several threads in this forum on...

    Silver. I got it a year ago; it was $800 and change.

    Raal Ribbon Headphones - SRH1A

    As someone who has owned an SR1a for awhile and fooled around with placement, let me add a bit to the Owner's Manual. I agree with the vertical placement, so that the center of the phones is even with the ear canal. What the Owner's Manual does not say is that it is worth experimenting with...

    Raal Ribbon Headphones - SRH1A

    565hunter, I made something of a feeble attempt to compare my Triton cable with the original cable, both out of the Jot R. My usual approach to comparing things is to listen to 10-15 seconds of music using each item; if I listen longer, by the time I test the second item, I basically have...

    Raal Ribbon Headphones - SRH1A

    565hunter, I got the Triton cable before the Jot R and have never switched back to the original cable. I'll compare them with the Jot R when I get a chance.

    Raal Ribbon Headphones - SRH1A

    I got a headphone cable for my SR1a from Tritonaudiocables.com: 4 wires, 24 AWG, 8 feet long, Neotech AG/GD. The cable appears quite well made, and Mr. Choy was both professional and very pleasant to deal with.

    Raal Ribbon Headphones - SRH1A

    A couple of quick observations on Stax versus SR1A. I have a 200 watt (into 8 ohm) solid state amp which I find quite decent, and to my ears it and the interface sound very close to the Jot R without the interface. Instrument timbres, sound stage, frequency balance--all pretty much the same...

    Raal Ribbon Headphones - SRH1A

    I have Stax 009 headphones and a BHSE with vintage tubes that, in my impression, produce a more satisfying bass than the stock tubes. I have tried comparing this combination against an SR1a out of a Jot R. A few up-front disclaimers. I can match volume only approximately, because I have only...

    How much you like it is going to depend on your own preferences as well as its synergy with the rest of your system. That said, I have been quite pleased with mine.

    Raal Ribbon Headphones - SRH1A

    In regard to positioning the SR1a, I have found that what works best for me is shorten up on the top strap and loosen the back strap until the center of the headphones, vertically and horizontally, is about even with my eardrums. It happens that this position is quite comfortable, since the top...

    CanJam SoCal 2019 Impressions thread

    I have never heard the HEDDphone and was interested to read your review. I could not figure out, however, what you mean by an indirect comparison. Also, I was surprised by your glowing description of the HEDDphone, followed by your stating it is close to the HD-600. I started off with one of...
