Dear All,   The Redwine Audio Isabellina is known to drive the Audeze LCD-2 pretty well, has anyone tried the Isabellina with HE-5LE??   Cheers, Roger

I actually bought an J3 for myself because of the low background noise, and very satisfy with that!!

Are there anyone who is planning to replace the stock cable of SE535, I am still looking forward to the new cable from moon audio, no idea for the price thou...:-D

Quote: Which is a good idea, I've just search on the ultimate ears' website, and only US$20 to let my SE535 producing a cleaner sound. Thanks.

Dear all,   I've recently received my Shure se535, which is a fantastic sounding IEM, and it is also my first high class IEM at all. However, I can hear a lot of background hiss from the se535 when I connected to my my MacBook Pro. I have also tried to connect to my home use DAC and HPA, I...

Dear all,   I'm planning to buy a new mp3 player for my portable rid. However I am stuck between choosing one of these 2 Sony players the S750 and the E450. I will simply connect the Line out from the DAP to my portable amp, so I am not caring about the sound quality of the HP output for...

Have anyone has any idea about the MHDT Labs Havana compare to the red wine audio's Isabellina DAC??

Quote: Is is possible to add the colouration via plugins?? I sounds interesting @@""...   I know that a lot of people like to get high quality clean and transparent DAC, And the Red Wind Audio Isabellina tend to be sound like that and warm.

Dear all,   I have been using the DACMagic since half a year ago, however, it really stops me enjoy and listen to music...Personally, I think the DACMagic is too harsh for me, cannot listen music for more 30mins, and the sound also made my eardrum painful, and listening fatigue even though I...

Balance could be my last option but it sounds interesting for that, might try that once I got more $$$ to upgrade my whole system. But I got some real issue now, the HD800 really do give more micro detail and micro dynamic, but, too bassy for me haha, I got poor ears...Loved headphones which...

haha. it might sound weird to you guys, but I am not trying to compare the HD800 to the K501, I just want to blam...why the HD800 is even easier than the K501 to get a good sound@@. The HD800 must sound better than the K501, because of the new technology and the price tag, but just wondering...

As above, are there any Low Voltage, High Current and Extreme High Power Amp can be suggested? Need an amp like this to drive a K501   Thanks

Seriously, sometime I think that, the HD800 is alot easiler and cheaper to to preforme better than the K501... For example, in a lot cost of budget, I can buy a HD800 + the Lehmann Rhinelander/ BLC + CA DACMagic, and it sound really good indeed. However, with the same or twice amount budget to...

Dear all,   First, I had own a k501 for more than 3 years, which is one of the most exciting can that I've found: so hard to drive it perfectly. I love it's bass, I love it's mids and highs. However, I had been looking an amp to pair it for the last 3 years since I've own this great can, but...

Um...I had been listening the DAC Magic for more 3 month, but I fould that the DACMagic sound very harshing to me, it seem to be overly bright ...does any one got the same impressions?? Could be my ears are just too sensitive, but I found that the Meier Audio's StageDAC are so fine, doesn't...

Thanks a lot, I will try to wash it first, and will try to get a replacement pad if it doesn't work cheers

I had been using and loved the AKG K501 for more than 3 years, but now the headphone pad is getting old, which I think is the time to had that replaced. Would like to know if a K702 replacement pad fit the K501?? I am living in Western Australia, Perth. I had try to find a K601 replacement pad...

Seriously, I like the sound of the K501 alot, but in my country, my city....the most isolated city in the world....Western Australia, Perth...I have no choice to choose from, and not much place for me to audit more headphone and amp...

Hi Roger (Brb, my name is Roger as well, LOL nice to meet you), thanks for you recommendation, my current source is actually a Cambridge Audio DAC, which is quite a good priced decent source, and I am now considering to get either the HD800 or HD650 with cardas cable, but IMO, HD800 looks a bit...

Hi everyone, I would like to have some headphone combination suggestion for the Lehmann Audio Rhinelander Amp. There are too less information for this amp that I can reference from, so would like to ask if you guys got any idea of headphon to pair with this amp. I mainly use to listen to...

I have recently bought the Lehmann Rhinelander Amp, which is a fantastic amp if I connect to any CD players or DACs, no problem at this stage at all. However, once I connect to any COMPUTER source, it starts to have a problem. When I connect the Rhinelander to any analog output from sound...
