    GUSTARD H10 High-current Discrete Class A output Stage Headphone Amplifier

    Usage: 2-6hrs at night, but only on weekends. Typical would be maybe 6 hours over the weekend, maybe 12 hours at most. So about the same daily average as you, but compressed into weekend listening. I was also running at a 12gb gain, and my first set (and certainly second set) were after they...

    GUSTARD H10 High-current Discrete Class A output Stage Headphone Amplifier

    Is anyone else having a lot of trouble with the reliability / longevity of their Burson op-amps in the H10? I got the full 2 x V5 single and 2 x V5 dual upgrade last year (April 2016) and they worked great for 7 months before they failed, developing a scratching sound in the audio output after a...

    Upgrade from Sennheiser PXC 350?

    I've had a set of Sennheiser PXC 350 noise-cancelling headphones for about 4 years now. The volume adjuster on the cable can be a little wonky sometimes, and I kind of hate the ear cups, and also wouldn't mind something with more cancelation and/or more volume.    Anyone know how these compare...

    Upgrading from iBasso D1

    Hey everyone, haven't been on the forums in a while (since I've been content my home and work setups!), so I'm not sure if there's a more efficient way for me to be going about this ... searching for new products was overwhelming!   So I've had an iBasso D1 since when they first launched years...

    DAC/AMP suggestions for HD650?

    I currently have a PS-Audio GCHA/Digital Link III pair and liked it. But my GCHA just died, out of warranty, so I'm debating getting it fixed or getting a new amp. I want something warmer than the GCHA .. would the HP100 fit the bill?

    Ultrasone: do they all seal well?

    thanks for the input! i ended up calling ultrasone usa and asked the same question and they talked me into the HFI780 for isolation. I asked about the Pro750, and surprisingly they talked up the HFI780 more .. I'm still shocked when a company these days will give honest advice and not just...

    Ultrasone: do they all seal well?

    I'm debating between the Ultrasone HFI-780, Pro 650 and Pro 750. Which has the best isolation? Or are they all the same?

    Thoughts on Darkvoice 332 vs WooAudio6 ?

    There's been a lot of talk about the Darkvoice 332 and good bit on the WooAudio6. Both are in similar price ranges and are tube amps, but I haven't seen anyone really compare them to one another. So does anyone have any thoughts, comparisons, opinions, etc on these 2 amps? I'll be pairing...

    New Portable Amp/Dac: iBasso D1 **with updates on the first page**

    USB doesn't provide that much power, certainly not enough to operate an amp. It's nothing unique to the D1

    i haven't taken the pads off headphones before .. does it just come off? do i need to angle it, or do it from one side, or take it off in any special way?

    New Portable Amp/Dac: iBasso D1 **with updates on the first page**

    Volume Control is still enabled in the USB-Audio protocal. There are several usb-audio only computer speakers (like the Harman/Kardon Soundsticks) that have no volume knob on them since the computer can still control volume, even if it's digital out over usb.

    New Portable Amp/Dac: iBasso D1 **with updates on the first page**

    HiFlight, can I get some thoughts on how well the D1 synergizes with your K701. You said volume was more than enough, which is reassuring. Any other impressions? Does it add any bass or warmth, or do anything else?

    Denon AH-D2000 build problems, help!

    less than 24 hours ago i got D2000s from audiocubes and it has 3 issues now. The left earcup has a rattle in it when i rotate it (something's sliding around in there), a bolt for the left ear cup has come loose, and then as i was minding my own business, some metal clip or spacer fell out...

    New Portable Amp/Dac: iBasso D1 **with updates on the first page**

    Does anyone have any idea about how the D1 would pair with the AKG K701? I just got the K701, but haven't gotten an amp yet, so I'm shopping around for my 1st! Having something with a built in DAC, especially optical and not just USB, is pretty appealing. I've heard there are amps that can...

    i'm glad i'm not the only geek that noticed the HD515's he was trying on. Though if I just wont he lottery, I wouldn't be getting 515's! About the Hold Steady, i think they're supposed to have a cameo spot on Lost later this season .. maybe they'll be playing with Driveshaft -vasu

    HD 595 or other?

    i auditioned a pair of HD595 (50ohm) the other day along side some Grado SR225 driven out an ipod. THe 595's were just amazing, I could really tell a difference above my HD555 (120ohm). The bass was just more envoloping, warmer, and richer. When I put the SR225, i was really dissapointed. I...

    cordless KSC35

    I don't move around. I've got the receiver attached to an exercise machine, so it never changes position. I've never tried amping the headphone output on the receiver as i just use Sennheiser MX500/550's with it. And no, there's no port on the receiver pack to plug into the wall to...
