    Moondrop Balanced Cables

    Hi- I'm a reasonably big fan of balanced cables in my main office rig, now trying to figure out if it's "worth it" in the IEM world. I'm unlikely to make a "major investment" to try out driving my KATO's with Line K's. Has anyone tried Line T's (~$20) link here or other less expensive options...

    Soldering XLR Male Connector (Braided Shield help!)

    I'm trying to reterminate a cable made by Periapt Cables. It's their Type-8 cable, and for whatever reason the male XLR connector that came on the cable (bought second-hand) had an end on it that flaired out like a bell and was too big to fit either of my amps. So I've got a new male XLR 4-Pin...

    Should I go balanced? Which CD Ripper?

    Firstly thanks for all the community help on here in making my decisions entering the audiophile world. I had my ear impressions made today and am pairing some CIEM Roxanne's with an AK SR15 to replace my old separates and speakers and crappy in ears. Should I fork out the extra £150 for the...

    PSB M4U2: Balanced input possible?

    I have had a set of PSB's M4U2 headphones, and have quite liked them. I recently paired them with an EarStudio ES100 Bluetooth receiver/amp. This unit has a balanced 2.5mm output, which got me to thinking. The M4U2's have 2 3.5mm inputs (one underneath either ear cup). Would it be possible to...

    Looking for a closed back headphone with balanced option

    Hello fellow head-fi'ers. To date, I've only ever owned single-ended (SE) headphones. Since more and more DAPs are coming out with balanced connections I'd like the ability to tap into this functionality. I've got a pair of Massdrop HD6XX's on the way, which (with an aftermarket cable) will...

    Universal IEM vs Custom IEM with balanced output and options

    Hi all! So, I've been merrily listening to my FiiO X5ii for a couple of years - firstly with some Fidue A73 IEMS, then my B&O H6, and finally with some Sony MDR-650AP in ears. The Fidues were great but started to get a little fatiguing treble wise (I think the X5ii can cause some sibilance if...
