    RudiStor

    I have been using a RudiStor RPX-100 for about 8 years and been very happy with it. I'm wondering why RudiStor products never seem to be discussed here on head-fi ?

    Question: Do newer iPods actually have a line-out signal ?

    I have lately in different forums had discussions with people concerning if newer iPods actually have a line-out signal at all. They claim that after 5,5 the signal from the headphone out and the dock connector are identical if the volume is set to max and that they therefore do not have a line...

    Love LA2000 but too much leakage. Suggest a replacement ...

    My main listening phones are my balanced ER4 that are fantastic for my main listening which is classical and other accoustical genres however sometimes I miss the more physical sound of my L3000 (that I sold for generally being too dark sounding and also to release some cash). I have now for...

    UE Tripple.fi 10 and Westone ES cable question

    When I bought this cable from Wilson at Jaben he told me to make sure I reversed the plug on the one ear.
