So. $500-$1000 to spend, new or used, on a DAC. I''ll be pairing it with a Glite for now, with a tube amp of some kind down the road. My headphones include D2000's, AD900's, SR225's, HD650's. I'd obviously like it to be good with all music, but Rock (TOOL mostly) takes the driver's seat...

I sent my Gilmore Lite to Justin 7 months ago for repair. Unfortunately, nothing has arrived back and he has not responded to numerous emails. In the beginning he was OK with communication, but now it is very poor. Does anyone know what's going on?

So I'm going to Jamaica and I need some portable headphones that isolate fairly well. I've been using KSC75's up to this point and you can imagine what that's like. I listen to a bit of music on the plane, but I need them more for in-flight movies. With the 75's it's hard to hear when...

What would be a good asking price for a used original Rega Planet?

Just wondering how this would work out. I read that the impedance would be something to look at when matching tube buffered sources with amps. The Nixon has an output impedance of 100ohms and the Glite has an input impedance of 50K ohms. Does the science work out OK? I heard if you make a bad...

Thinking of getting one of these bad boys and was wondering if it would outpace a 970HD as a DAC or modified X-Fi with LM4562 op amps and Black Gate power filter capacitor. I've heard that the Oppo 970HD outperforms dedicated DAC's upwards of $600 and that the X-Fi is as good if not better than...

Heard the 970HD's internal DAC's can match standalone DAC's upwards of $600. Also have been reading around that the X-Fi is as good if not better than the DAC1. I will also be modding the X-Fi with LM4562 op amps and a Black Gate power filter capacitor. I might also upgrade to a X-Fi Prelude...

I am going to pick up a pair of HD650's and was thinking of the Gilmore Lite with DPS. Will I see any benefits with this amp opposed to plugging the HD650's directly into a X-Fi XtremeMusic or X-Fi Prelude? I am modding the XM with LM4562's and Black Gate capacitor but might go to the Prelude as...

Interested in the HD650's and will need an amp pairing. I will be running X-Fi XtremeMusic with LM4562 op amps and Black Gate capacitor mod -> amp -> headphones. My price range is $250 max, preferably $200 so I am thinking something used. I want a good pairing with the HD650's and the Gilmore...
