Bottlehead Amplifier Discussion / Comparison Thread: Crack, SEX & Mainline
Hey Guys, I have a pair of HD800 with a Schiit Lyr2. However I am thinking about getting a bottlehead amp to build as a hobby and as an upgrade to the Lyr2. Compared to the Lyr2 I would like more bass extension and soundstage. I am wondering what would be the best bottlehead amp to go. I've...- rayhe19

So if I have a bifrost with an ak4399 bifrost, I should upgrade straight to multibit instead of making a stop at the ak4490 board?- rayhe19

Based off of the bifrost's serial do you guys know which ones after will have the Uber Chip or the AK4490 chip? Also, if you upgrade to Bifrost Multibit does schiit ship you back your old ak4399 or ak4490 chip?- rayhe19

Double Helix Cables Thread
About how soon after you ordered did you get a shipping confirmation? So far my credit card has been charged but I haven't gotten any info and it's been more than a week. I thought the wires were "BACK IN STOCK. ORDER NOW FOR IMMEDIATE SHIPMENT."- rayhe19

Home-Made IEMs
Has anyone tried a build with a RAB either by itself or with a CL? Also, I'm wondering if you guys could show me how to use the previously suggested crossover calculator here: http://sim.okawa-denshi.jp/en/Fkeisan.htm I see that if you put in a resistance and capacitance in the calculator it...- rayhe19

Do you guys know what the crossover setup is in a knowles GV? I was planning to use one as a driver for my ciem. Also, would you recommend adding a CL with a high ohm damper as a subbass driver? Or will that be too much bass? Thanks!- rayhe19

Home-Made IEMs
I have a question about phase. I understand that if you reverse the polarity on one BA, it can cause an electrical phase issue where one driver will cancel out audio from another driver. However, I'm reading up freqphase from JH audio and I don't really understand whats going on. According to...- rayhe19

Has anyone tried reshelling iems? I understand the effects of dampers, resistors, and capacitors to change the sound of BA drivers but I don't think I'll have the time and patience to re-solder components and strip tubing from BAs over and over. I was considering reshelling TFZ Kings to make a...- rayhe19

I'm in the market for a DAP for my campfire audio orions. I'm having trouble deciding between this or the onkyo dp-x1a. I'm wondering how the two differ in their sound signatures. I heard these are V-shaped while the onkyo dap is neutral. How significantly do they differ?- rayhe19

Which headphones under $1500 have the most resolution / amount of details?
How fragile are the STAX headphones? One of the main drawbacks for them seems to be the difficulty for repair on them but I feel like theres been more complaints about QC from audeze and hifiman.- rayhe19
