Okay. So I've had my headphones, my little starter setup for all of a week. I love it! Thank you for the suggestions! NFB 11.38 and the massdrop x Sennheiser 58x jubilee. My problem! I must know! I have my old Quart phone 70. They sound good, not nearly as clear and much warmer, Kinda fuzzy...

Not really helpful but! The Modhouse Argons are my next headphones on my radar for that exact reason. I heard they had heavy bass and great sound stage. So plus 1 for the Argons.

Well. I received my Audio-gd NFB 11 .38 and my Jubilee yesterday and I've been non stop since I've got them. I have been running them threw a variety of music that I'm Familiar with. In Flames - Gyroscope, Leeches, B.B king- Riding with the King, Fleetwood Mac - The chain, Chris the Burgh -...

What is max? Boxer, American bulldog?

But the duck

In regards to anythingbutipod, spent a bit of time on that site, not much maybe 30mins. I experienced a lot of dead links and links that took me to a "hi :)". I didn't find it all that helpful, maybe if you knew exactly what you are looking for and you wanted to know about a specific DAP. I...

Hiby R3 or R6 seem like they might be the winners. Seems to offer much of what I'm looking for. Maybe the Cayin N5lll, another that looks interesting is the opus #1s.

Okay, thanks for the recommendation. I'm looking into all of them. I think I asked the wrong question. I probably should have asked what's the difference between a $300 and $1500 DAP? What additional features are you getting from the one that's $$$? Reading the features of different DAPs, they...

I'll take a look at shanling daps. Thank you. I wish I could give you more... balanced would be cool but not necessary, some internal memory, expandable memory a must, the ability to connect to a Amp. WiFi & Blu tooth would be great, battery life is a strong consideration.

Thank you, I'm not sure I'm prepared to mod a $1500 +CND Dap. I do like Sony a lot but I acknowledge that you pay a premium for the name. I also need to know why I'm spending $1500 for a Dap. Just like the HD660s, I was about to pull the trigger, had the cash in hand until I read the comparison...

For now, Primarily the Hd58X Jubilee. My gear hasn't arrived yet. I've got Audio-gd NFB 11.38 on it's way as well as the Jubilee from massdrop. I'll probably be getting a portable Dac at some point. Maybe a mojo, maybe an IFI. I haven't given it much thought yet. Thinking of getting some IEMs...

So, I haven't had a Dap since my MD player and psp go, both of which I loved. My psp kicked the bucket a few years ago so I've been using my pixel 2. Hasn't been the same, need a new Dap. I don't really have a budget. What I'm looking for is value. Performance/ features to price value. I...

Long and girthy

And watching it

Okay guy. I need your help. I've been doing a lot of research, trying to pick out my first real pair of headphones. (I did have the B&w P7, which I recently gave to a family member.) *Disclaimer, these won't be my last pair of headphones but they will be my only pair for a while.* These...

Below the belt

Until they mutate

With planned obsolescence

Money ruefully spent

I did it. I committed. I ordered the Audio-gd NFB 11.38. Now I'm trying to manage my excitement and anxiety, hoping that nothing goes wrong at customs and it doesn't arrive in shambles. I haven't really found much on the 11.38. Anyone have this unit? My first dac/ amp and I'm already looking...

Pulling the trigger. Going with the NFB-11.38

Okay, could you elaborate as to why you prefer those headphones over the 660s? I did do a fair bit of research and it seems to be an even split, some people love the 660s to the point of selling their 600 others are sorely disappointed with the 660s. I was looking at the 600 and 1990pros. The...

I know. I was being flippant. Now to perform a little necromancy and resurrect this thread. I could buy the Cayin iha & iDac-6 for about 1600. It's tempting, it's a nicer looking unit than the Audio gd product but it's significantly more expensive. Does the Cayin perform better than the...

I'm Celiac's. I'll make due with rice with chilly peper, garlic and a squeeze of lime.

Would it be worth upgrading to the NFB 28.38 to get the balanced?
