Well I just got the uDAC-2 today and have been listening to flac files the last hour or so... WOW is all I can say, I had absolutely NO idea that the onboard realtek soundcard was that bad.    If I could go back in time I would definately have bought a DAC before an amp.    Now I...

Thanks I'll have a look at that too, but issn't that also a combination of amp/dac? Since I already have an amp I would be happier to spend money for a pure dac.   Oh and regarding budget, anything sub 400$ would be ok for me. the uDAC-2 was more to actually get a DAC and get a better...

After having spend soo much time reading forums, reviews etc. I think I'm about to go nuts!   When it all comes down to it, I want the best sound for music and not gaming. So I think I go the USB DAC route.    So I will probably start with the uDAC-2 to complement my Little Dot MKIII...

Thanks for your replies.   Stephen - Yes X-FI gaming soundcards do have alot to offer in regards to EAX, and other usefull things. = makes it easier to hear where your enemy is :-)   LeeC - I looked into the Matrix Mini and it does seem like a solid option, however my LD MKIII doesn't...

Hi guys   I got into the "head-fi-game" not too long ago, and purchased a pair of DT880 and a Little Dot MKIII amp with some M8161 tubes to go with it. Now I only use it with my computer and have followed the guides here regarding wasapi foobar etc. But one thing has bothered me since i got...

Thanks Ironmine, i was a bit unsure of the vst filter thing you were talking about, I'll try to replicate that in my setup.

Christ this is a long thread - but worth it! Anyways I just got foobar installed again and was looking through what settings to use. I have been playing around with all the suggested settings and at the moment I'm gonna try with the following DT880 cans with LD-MK III Mostly flac files...

Thanks for the feedback i will go ahead and get the DA-131.1 together with a mini jack to rca adapter.

Ok so i need some help clarifying a few things :-) I currently have: Vista x64 Creative x-fi (Originally bought this for gaming and EAX- although i don't game a lot i do occasionally enjoy it) Little Dot MK III with some M8161 tubes Beyer DT880 '05 with fabulous white gel pads :P My...

Wohoo I finally got my LD MK III. Ordered it 2/1-08 and just recieved it today. (I should say that it has been at the customs office since 6/1-08 and till now! so can't really blame Little tube). Anywyas i hooked em up with my DT-880 '05 and even though i had to steal a very old...

I think you guys are probably right, ill try to close the door and keep the volume a bit down :-) I'm now looking forward to hearing them with tha amp. Thanks for helping me sort my thoughts hehe (Apartement is however only 2 rooms and 60 square meeters hehe)

Hi guys I have a problem.. Iwe just gotten the Beyer DT880 '05 cans, and so far i really like them - even unamped! I should be getting a Little Dot MKIII in a few days (Clearing customs atm). So i was gonna be the happy little camper :-) But but but. I'm getting concerned that even this...

Hmm the thing is im pretty new in this audiophile game, and im afraid of spending 400$ ~ 585$ with shipping and import tax into EU on my first amp. Which is why i like the idea of the the LD MK III that i can see on ebay for 200$ ~comes to about 325$ with taxes and shipping. And I understand...

Hi I have a pair of DT880's in the mail that hopefully will land in a few days. However i still havn't decided which amp i want to use and i need some help. It will be connected to my computer and will play mostly rock and vocals. As i understand from my searchings almost everyone suggests...
