Have you heard anything regarding pairing the Dark Voice 336 SE with the HD 800?

Has anyone ever heard of pairing the Audio GD NFB-11 with the HD 800? I was just about to pull the trigger on the Lyr 2 but someone recommended the Audio GD and I haven't heard much about it.

Thansk @DavidA. The Chord Hugo is a bit out of my budget although I was considering the Chord Mojo though. Have you used that with your HD 800's?

Thanks @ColtMrFire. I really appreciate all the input and insights on all this! It sounds like that's the plan then! I'll be ordering the Lyr 2 and then the Multi 2 a few weeks later! Can't wait!

Thanks, I just checked and for the price the seller is asking, I could pretty much buy it brand new right from Schiit and not have to worry if I get any issues. With the exchange rate, its a savings of $13.00 over buying brand new from Schiit. I really appreciate you letting me know about that...

Wow I really appreciate that. Who would've thought it would be so expensive to ship an empty box lol! It's alright then, I really appreciate you looking into that for me anyways. If I do change my mind then I will be sure to let you know!

Thanks for that info. I was thinking about adding in the PYST cables from Schiits website as well. Thanks for the tips on the ebay tubes too!   There is a local store here that sells the Woo Audio WA7 Firefly here (although for much more, but I guess pretty close in price if you add the modi...

Well I do definitely plan on driving my Hifiman HE 400 and 400i's with them as well as my AKG K7xx. So are you saying I should get the Modi MB first to use with myJDS O2 and then have my next purchase be the Lyr?

Which amp are you referring to Fegefeuer?

  So I couldn't help it and have been spending all day looking back and forth at my different options and combos for amps and dacs. I'm leaning more towards the Modi 2 Multibit and now debating between the Valhalla 2 or Lyr 2. Due to my budget right now it looks like I'll have to purchase one...

Are you referring to the headphones or an amp? lol

  That's funny because I actually do haha. I also have the HiFiman HE-400i and the HE-400 so I'm looking at something to power them all (including my AKG K7xx's). So in this case you think the Lyr2 then?

That's awesome advice. Sounds like it will be a fun trip! Thanks!

That sounds awesome! I'm very new to the audiophile community and haven't really met anyone locally to chat about my qualms and questions with! 

I don't really have a large budget. Looking for the best bang for buck kind of deal. Hopefully I can be under $500 CAD.

Also, any good recommendations for an audio player for the Mac? I know there isn't a Foobar for Mac (or is there?)   Thanks

I was meaning a portable player, but I was also thinking of using an old DVD player with optical out to the amp as an at home player. Any better recommendations?

Okay no problem thanks! I just figured it would be a good all in one solution plus the bonus of it being portable 

I was also considering a Chord Mojo instead of the Schiit stack...thoughts?

Well I recently started getting into the audiophile world so I know I need to upgrade my amp/dac but this is my collection so far:   Headphones:   Hifiman HE400 Hifiman HE400i AKG K7xx Sony MDR 1000X and of course the Sennheiser HD 800   Amp/Dac:   Fiio E17K JDS Labs O2 Amp (no...

That's pretty good too, maybe I should save for that amp instead of the Magni 2 Uber then?

Awesome, thanks for the input. I tried looking up the Meier Jazz FF and it looks like its around $405 USD plus the Modi2 Multibit for $250 and shipping would bring me pretty close to $1000.00 CAD. Budget wise, I was thinking about the Modi 2 Multi with the Magni 2 Uber. Would it be better for me...

Thank you kind sir!

Thank you for that video, you are truly a gentleman! That little spring was definitely what was making that creak! I didn't even know you could pop out the pin from the bottom! I popped the it off and the spring just fell out of the notch it's supposed to sit in. Set it again and the creak is...

Wicked story! I'm still extremely new to the audiophile community and I've spent a lot of time combing through all the threads trying to soak up as much information as I can. Every time I've had a question, it seems like there's someone there willing to help answer the question. This is such an...
