Schiit Magni+ and Magni Heretic :: Impressions Thread
I've seen comparisons here between Heretic and Heresy but what about Magni 3+ and the new plus? Wouldn't mind a sidegrade with the gain switch now on the front.- roycecooker

Schiit Modi 3E
Interesting how little there is out there. I've been considering an upgrade to get that Unison USB and whatnot. But I guess it's not really considered a full-featured product since it was a stopgap after the AKM fire.- roycecooker

Any love for the Activo CT10?
I personally own one and love it! Sounds great. Though mine isn't just any old CT 10, but is a special version released during the Sega Saturn's release anniversary in Japan. Mine is the color fashioned after the gray Sega Saturn launch model released in Japan. It just so happens to match...- roycecooker

iFi audio hip-dac 2: just the tonic for headphone fans
Ok...but iPhones these days are packing with Lightining to USB-C cables, which can be used for both data and power connections. I don't see the need for this camera connector and quite frankly it seems rather obtuse and ridiculous. Like my friends who use iOS devices would really want to pack...- roycecooker

Oh you have GOT to be kidding. That just sucks. What's the point of the second revision then if they didn't fix anything?!- roycecooker

iFi audio hip-dac 2: just the tonic for headphone fans
That's what I was thinking. I wonder if they even fixed the horrendous battery life from the first Hip DAC at all....- roycecooker

iFi audio hip-dac 2: just the tonic for headphone fans
Man, they're still doing that weird separate USB-A thing? You'd think a new version would've changed it to a single USB-C for data and power but I guess not. Very disappointing.- roycecooker

Review by 'roycecooker' on item 'CEntrance HiFi-M8 V2'
I was in the market for some portable DAC/Amps, and luckily it just so happened that I had a need right as my trip to CanJam came around. I was looking at the options from iFi with the Hip DAC, and from FiiO with the Q3 with its THX AAA amp. There unfortunately wasn't much at the event...- roycecooker

CanJam SoCal 2021 Impressions Thread (September 25-26, 2021)
I'll keep that in mind then whenever I go to a chiropractor! Been needing to go anyways because of my posture problems. As for solutions, nothing. I've heard about surgery but it seems to be entirely possible to make it worse. At the moment I just do daily painkillers and jaw massages. They...- roycecooker

New Member Introductions thread
Hello hello! I've been around here for a while and I recently went to CanJam, so it did sort of push me to make an account here. Been into the hi-fi audio hobby ever since I started with a Magni and Modi stack with DT 770 80 ohms I got for Christmas of last year. I'm only starting out with...- roycecooker

CanJam SoCal 2021 Impressions Thread (September 25-26, 2021)
Now that I'm home, I think I can give a more fuller impression of the event. I still feel it was absolutely worth the expenses, though I was disappointed Schiit Audio didn't show up. But it was nice demoing everything, even if they were well out of my price range. If I could pick personal...- roycecooker

CanJam SoCal 2021 Impressions Thread (September 25-26, 2021)
This was my first CanJam and honestly it was so worth the plane ride over. I got to open my eyes and ears to all sorts of new experiences and it helped me make final decisions for future purchases! Was great to hear Dunu's story as I snagged their Falcon Pro's. Big shoutout to Source AV for...- roycecooker
