This DAC has a PCM2704 chip (great sound BTW!) and according to its datasheet, the output power is 12mW with 32ohm load - also 1.8Vpp with 10k load. I'm assuming...

    Increasing Headphone Inventory - Purchase advice

    Hey all, I'm pretty new to the forums, and am trying to decide on what my next set of cans should be. My current daily drivers are a pair of secondhand Grado SR-225's (not E, not I, just 225.) I enjoy the sound out of them, amping with a Schiit Fulla 2. I also have a pair of Audio Technica...

    Grado Black Label

    I’ve been searching around and although I’ve seen some people talking about the Grado black label headphones I can’t find an actual review of either the black label 1 or 2. They look unique and apparently have uniquedrivers but they’re not cheap. I’m very curious about the sound but don’t wanna...

    Ibasso SR1 vs Hifiman Sundara, look for recommendation

    Has anyone had a chance to compare between Ibasso SR1 vs Hifiman Sundara? Since both of them are in the same price, or is there maybe any other recommendation for full size headphone open or semi-open back for sub $500. Basically i like airy with good sounstage, clear, and detail sound. I own...

    Family matters, BDP-6700 to de-embedder to HD-DAC1 to Grado MS-1?

    This is setup is for my dad who would be happy listening to the old mp3 CDs I made him a long time ago on the Grado Alessandro MS-1 I bought for him a while back. I recently discovered that a couple easy changes were holding back my personal audio setup from being great and and while my dad...

    Which Grado would you get?

    Short version: I have a chance to get a deal on some Grados. Within the Prestige line, which one should I get to compliment my Modhouse Argons? The Argon has a warm/dark sound with epic bass and the most immense soundstage you can get from a closed headphone. I want an open, more detailed...

    Grado HP-1000's. Great, but not with my amp.

    It's been awhile since my last post but I know that this is the place to ask... I have a very nice pair of Grado HP-1000 drivers in custom black walnut cups. I'm using an Accuphase C200 preamp to amplify them. Both of these pieces are excellent, but I wonder how well mated they are. I have to...
