    Good deal on a pair of Maximo iM-490's

    My intention is not to advertise for a website, so please remove this if it is against the rules. I just noticed on woot.com they are selling these phones for $17.99 shipped. I just ordered one, and it's great timing because I will be needing some IEMs for an upcoming long plane ride. Just...

    Subtle "crackling" behind the music?

    I didn't know which forum to post this in, hope this is the right one. So I am listening to my current setup which is Foobar FLAC (SRC 48kHz) -> USB to Creative sound card -> optical to Beresford DAC -> Corda Aria -> HD650. This issue appears most clearly in the song Walk Away by Christina...

    Comparing my HD650 to my PX100?

    I've had my HD650 in it's current setup for a while now. I recently got a pair of PX100s to go with the Sansa Fuze that was given to me as a gift. First of all, these are some great headphones, especially for the price. The bass sounds really nice, it gets very low and it always sounds pretty...

    Neuros OSD

    Hey everyone, I apologize if this has been brought up before but when I searched for "Neuros OSD" I found nothing. I saw this product and it grabbed my attention because it plays back the FLAC format. Here is the link: The Neuros OSD - Digitally Store and Easily Access your DVDs, VHS tapes...

    Definitive Technology/Vienna Acoustics/Mirage/Martin Logan ...which would be best?

    I am currently in the process of upgrading my speaker setup and I would love some advice from people with knowledge of good speakers. For now i'll be using Audigy digital out -> Beresford mk6 -> Denon DRA-397 stereo receiver -> speakers. I am limiting my search to these brands of speakers (see...

    Can my electrical problem be solved?

    I live in a fairly old house and I'm pretty sure the electrical system sucks. I have one of those Monster "power clean" power strips (mainly because I needed a power strip not necessarily a power cleaner). When plugging into one of my outlets in my room, the "Ground OK" light is not on, and...

    Quality of digital outs from Audigy 2

    Right now I am using the Aria connected via USB and it sounds great! I noticed however that the DAC chip inside is the same as Meier uses in the Porta Corda (now replaced by Move) which leads me to believe it is not of the highest quality. I was looking at the Beresford TC-7510 because it got...

    Corda Aria vs. Micro DAC + Micro Amp w/ Desktop Module

    How would these 2 systems stack up against each other? There is about a $200 difference in the two which I dont mind paying, so I want to know which will sound better. I would be feeding them via USB. All replies are appreciated!

    1/4 to 1/8

    I am considering getting the Silver Dragon v2, but I have a possible stupid question. I am also planning on getting the LaRocco PRII and it has the 1/4 headphone jack. Is it important to avoid using a 1/8 to 1/4 adapter or vice versa? I ask this because if it results in a lot of loss I would be...

    So many decisions...

    Ok, so I am pretty new to headphones but I am now an absolute fanatic for life and I can see myself spending many thousands of dollars on this hobby in the future. First my setup: I have a pair of Sennheiser HD580's, and a Total Bithead from Headroom. My computer has a Soundblaster Audigy...
