    Portable DAC for car audio use?

    Hi all. I've been out of the forums for a couple of years as my headphone listening needs have been met nicely. Recently I've been upgrading the system in my car, and have now come to the point where the DAC appears to be the weak link. I am looking for a DAC that connects to my iPhone 5s and...

    Refurbishing CD3000's; what is the role of the foam covering the drivers?

          Not sure where to post this, but I'm thinking I might get better technical responses here than in the general headphone forum.   Anyhow, I'm refurbishing a pair of Sony CD3000 and, as is the case with most of the soft parts of these cans, the original foam covering the driver...

    Two amps, two cans, some questions on volume levels.

    I have a question about the pairings of some of my equipment that regards volume levels, impedance, gain, etc.  The two amps in question are my Woo Audio Custom, an OTL amp based on the old Woo Audio 1 design, and my newly acquired Headamp GS-1.  The phones are my Sennheiser HD-580's and Denon...

    Grados or Beyers?

    Ety 4p-S adapter/ Cardas (?) extension cable?

    Last year I almost bought what I think was a custom Cardas headphone extension cable with an integrated Ety 4p-4s adapter from the classifieds. I didn't, and now I'm interested in something like this again. Was this a one-off item, or can I buy one somewhere? Anyone know anything?

    New to amps, not new to headphones, need some suggestions

    I've been a relatively inactive member of this site for a year or so now, but as my listening is moving more and more towards headphone only, I'd like to buy my first dedicated amp. I would like to spend under $250. I'd also consider used equipment. It would need to connect to an Acurus DIA-100...
