    Will I need to spend a boatload of money to upgrade a Magni3?

    Plan on buying some LCD-X's as my "end game" cans for listening to metal/rock and other loud boom boom noises during movies/non-competitive games. I have a Magni 3 (fed by Modi) and I'm wondering what it would take to get an actual upgrade to this amp (keeping solid state). I know I don't really...

    Best closed backs in a noisy environment - still want excellent sound quality

    So in a few weeks my home office is being moved into my living room because we live in a 2br condo, and my newborn will be getting this room. At night when I'm on my PC, my wife is watching TV so now I will be in the same room as her. I have a closed back set of MDR-1A's and I know these will...

    Is there a reason to upgrade my Schiit Stack?

    I have the stack paired with a set of HD650's and also my old AD-700's. Other than volume, I don't notice a massive difference between the Magni 2 amp (with and without Modi) and my Fiio E10k.

    Ordered these because woot.com had them on a decent sale. I was in the market for a set of closed cans for work and home and these seemed to fit the bill. I was looking for something to hook up to my phone and desktop and wanted a warmer sound due to the fact I listen to a lot of melodic metal...

    Have AD700's - Looking to upgrade

    I use these right now for FPS gaming (80% use) and mobile music enjoyment. I'm pretty happy with these but I feel like I am missing a lot of the lower end. I know it's not the same, but earlier this year I purchased a set of very nice Focal speakers for my car and was blow away by how much I...
