    Any FiiO Q5 lovers ever had the JDS Labs C5?

    Hello, all. It's been a while. I've been so content with my little rig for so long that I simply haven't felt the itch and fell out of touch. [ FiiO X3 (1st Gen!), line out --> JDS Labs C5 --> Sen HD600 ] But I just noticed that JDS Labs isn't even making a portable amp anymore. So I started...

    My recommended Audiophile Headphones for Techno

    There are not many recommendations/reviews for high-end headphones that mention bass heavy electronic music (Techno, Deep House, Trance, Dubstep, Ambient, etc) for us bass heads out there.

    New to headphones - I'm converted! (or at least it's a polygamy)
