    My Very Simple Denon D600 Mod

    Well since I now like these enough for them to be keepers, I decided to do a little experimenting. There are quiet a few things I like about these cans. They're not as boomy as the d2000/5000, have a nice treble sparkle, and sounds a bit cleaner to my ears. This is all while actually having the...

    Muse Portable Tube Amplifier

    There have been a few portable tube amps to come out recently, and none of them are cheap. Even the one from govibe, who always made cheap solid state portables, is over 600usd. So I was browsing on ebay and came across a muse tube portable that's around 100usd shipping. I tried searching on...

    Are the 1964 Ears Quads the Best Customs for 500.00-600.00

    I have a maximum of 600.00 to spend on my first customs. I've been reading many threads the past few weeks. I would like something that's three way with at leas 4 drivers. From everything I've read, the quads seems like the way to go. But i wonder if there's anything better for the price. If...

    Are There Any Closed headphones Better than the D7000 for 500.00-1000.00

    I've been looking for a good closed(woody preferably) headphone for a change of pace from the open cans I have now. The Wuss was nice enough to let me audition his d7000, and I immediately liked them. So I recently bought them, and they are a nice change of pace from my other cans. I really like...

    Calling all Brandy/Cognac Lovers

    This is more related to brandies/cognacs that goes well with cigars. I enjoy other whiskies, but for me, cognac goes with pretty much any cigar while IME, other alcohol drinks goes better with certain cigars. Have any of you come across any cheap brandies that you like as much as some of the...

    Calling All "Vintage" Integrated/Receiver Owners

    This is a topic that doesn't get discussed much, but from my time here I've read posts of many people who own either vintage integraded amps or receivers. I know since they are vintaged it can be really hit or miss. But there are many who have had great results with these products. So I've...

    Is the Music Streamer Pro Worth the Premium Over the Music Streamer II+?

    I've given myself a headache trying to decide between these two. The price difference between the two units is 150.00, but when you factor in the cost of interconnects it's more like 250-300.00. I plan on making my own interconnects, but those mini xlr connectors aren't cheap. I also plan to use...

    Stax SR-407s Are in The House

    A few weeks ago, I was going back and forth between the He-6 and SR-507. I couldn't afford both and since I already had a pair of lambda signatures, I chose the HE-6. Well since that time I've sold the sigs and now have a pair of SR-407. So I can't compare them directly to the sigs but from...

    Wow, Upgading Your Power Suppy Really Does Improves Audio Quality!!

    I remember reading a post some time ago about someone saying the power supply affects audio quality. At the time I didn't put too much stock into that since the power supply has to power so many things other than the audio out. I didn't think that it would really affect audio quality. But I now...

    New Hybrid Amp/DAC From Little Dot

    Little Dot is releasing a new budget hybrid amp/dac combo called the Q. It looks nice for only 89.00(before shipping). It also has a nice retro look to it.   link:   http://littledot.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=927&sid=120b04573a1a279d93af7bae34cfb47b

    Hifiman HE-5 + Little Dot MKVII+ = Wow!!!

    I've been very interested in the HE-5s ever since the first impressions started rolling in. So I decided to wait until the right opportunity presented itself and get a used pair already burned in since the warranty is transferable. On my main rig I have a pair of lambda signatures mated...

    One of my Tubes is a Lot Brighter than the Other One

    I just received a pair of GE 5751 black plates I got off ebay. One tube is significantly brighter than the other one. Does that mean something is wrong. They both sound fine, but I don't know if something is wrong with one of the tubes or not.

    Does the Hot Sizzle of the DT990s Ever go Away?

    I just received a new pair of dt990 premium 600ohm cans. I like the sound signature except for the hot treble they have. I can live with the slightly recessed midrange but I don't know if I can live with the sizzle. I have about 50 hours on them now and the hot treble has toned down a little bit...

    Beyer dt990(600ohm) or Denon 2000

    I'm thinking of adding a new set of cans to my arsenal and have noticed that these two cans are on sale right now. Right now I'm enjoying my hd580s, sextetts, and shure 840s. I know these two cans are totally different but the prices are so low, I probably could get most of my money back if I...

    The seller advertises this as a MK6 headphone amp, but it don't look like any MK6 I've ever seen. The model name one the pics states it's a TPA-1. Here's a link to the listing. Little Dot MK 6 Full Balance gallbladder OCL amplifier - eBay (item 170409655167 end time Dec-20-09 11:15:25 PST)

    Is the Jade really a balanced Amp?

    I'm looking to get a balanced(tube) amp for my Christmas present, but I don't have four figures to drop on most of the balanced tube amps out there. As far as I know, the cheapest fully balanced tube amp is the little dot mkVII. I think I might be able to afford this, but I will really stretch...

    One Side of my Lambda Pros Has More Bass Than the Other Side

    The right side of my lambda pros has more bass than the left side. The bass is also much deeper. Everything else sounds the same. The vocals still image in the center(mostly), but the bass does sounds like it's slightly to the right. I am using a srd7 basic instead of a srd7 pro. Could a lack of...

    Stax Lambda Pro or Nova Classic

    I'm looking to grab one of these, but I don't know much about stax. This would be my first full electrostatic phone. So would one you guys think sounds better?

    Question about the audio technica AD1000

    I'm looking for something different from what I have now. Right now the best all arounders I have would probably be my hd580s. I'm wondering are the ad1000s worth their asking price of 400.00(for those of you who have acturally heard them)? I use to have the ad700s. I really liked their sound...

    Does anyone know anything about Numark electrostatic headphones?

    I just scored a pair of Numark ES-701s with adapter off ebay for about 80.00 shipped. I've never heard of them, and I don't know anything about them. But for the modest price I thought I would take a chance since they're suppose to be electrostats. I know just because they are electrostats...

    AD700 with 75ohm adapter Impressions

    I have a 75ohm adapter I've been using with my er4ps. I decided to experiment with it using with my ad700s on my little dot mkI, and wow. I get the same results as with my er4ps. The soundstage is wider, the highs are more extended, and there's more air and separation between instruments. Bass...

    What's the best pads to use with the Sextetts?

    I just received a pair of them in very good condition. The elastics on the headband are even good. The bass is almost nonexistent. This may be to the pads being worn(I assume). I plan to hang on to these. I love the sound signature. These are a nice change of pace to my HD580s. I actually prefer...
