I need to contact little dot as my mk3 has had a fall and the volume knob is broken off, the amp still works fine, a credit to it's production, but trying to log onto littledot.net is proving to be impossible, either i am totally missing the point of the security question or there is a fault on...

I'm looking towards purchasing a desktop amplifier that will work with: HiFiman HE-400's and the Sennheiser HD 598's. I would prefer if it stayed under $200, but I don't know what kind of amp will power them both. Other headphones that I might possibly use would be the Philips Citiscape Uptown...

I am a bit confused, hoping someone can help here. I will start with my requirements, most of my music are on the computer, so DAC is a must. Some of them are lossless, and I have some MP3 as well. I listen to all types of music. I also watch some movies through headphone so that I won’t disturb...

So I was thinking about buying the O2 + ODAC combo for $250. But then I saw that if I was using a computer with this Is would need it to be USB. I this true? Also could I get a better amp and DAC for $250?

can someone help me, i got a LD3 and it should be plug and play correct? this is my first tube amp. the fuses look fine but i plug it in and nothing?? am i doing something wrong?? tubes come intact...just doesn't make sense.....HELP!

Hey Everybody   I've been trying to pair down my headphone collection (and maybe make some upgrades) and it's getting difficult. My problem is that I'm having trouble discerning some of the differences in sound quality. Right when I think I've nailed down some favorites, different songs and...

Hi, i just bought a Grado SR80i and im using it on my ipod, would it sound better if i use an amp? i dont want to spend too much money. something like this: Amazon.com: FiiO E5 Headphone Amplifier: Electronics Thanks

Hi,   What are the current players in the solid state desktop amp market? It seemed like before there were more SS choices. Besides the Schiit Asgard ($250), what other choices are there?   How does the Asgard rank compared the M^3, PPA, PPA2, Beta 22, etc?   Thanks.

Hi, I've been reading with interest for a short time on various opinions on DACs and AMPs and still can't decide plus my head hurts from trying to make sense of it all. Please don't get too complicated as I'm a novice to DACs and AMPs. I may need prodding in the right direction to help get me...

Hi all, In my first voyage into better sound, I just took delivery of a Little Dot MKIII. I'm using this with my Mac Mini and HD448's. After a couple of hours of use, I'm quiet embarrassed to say that I can't tell a difference! I've done some quick A-B testing, using a splitter, and the only...

Hi all,   Not sure what the problem is here, could one of the tubes be bad/dying?   I've done a fair bit of troubleshooting and it's definitely the amp.   As a side note, does the MKIII need biasing when the tubes are changed?   Any help is appreciated.   Thanks.

Hello Head-fiers! I need your help with an amplification problem I have. I recently purchased a pair of Hifiman HE-400, which i really like a lot. But I can't shake the feeling that the feeling that my Fiio e10 amp just isn't allowing them to fulfill their true potential. May that be true...

Heya,   I've been wondering lately on what would be a good possible amp upgrade in the $300 & below range from the Hifiman EF2A (w/ Mullard CV4010 Tubes)?  I own a Beyerdynamics DT990/600, and I am planning on upgrading my DAC soon to the HRT MS2.  I thought about grabbing the Schiit Audio...

Ive read some great threads on here, but now that its time to get a new amp I'd like some opinions on these three. I'm based in the UK and am looking to buy here which does means missing out on some US designs. I've heard good reviews on each of these amps and although they are at different...

I had a problem with one of the tubes on my Little Dot MKIII after a week of use. I let David at Little Dot know about this. Just prior to my tube problem I purchased some extra tubes to try. After a couple of days the new tubes were tried. I have after a day of "tube rolling" I settled on a...

I love the tubes, but would like to know some feedback from people that have been using them! Just got mine a few days ago :) lemme know what you think! Plus, I'm using an little dot mk3 tube amp with them....

So after some great help earlier from another member, I now know my HD400's are 300 ohms per channel. Now I know why Im not getting the sound from them that they are capable of as I have nothing to match them...   Any ideas &/or suggestions on an amp capable of running these cans would be...

Wanted to know if I can break in my driver tubes, just by leaving the amp on...or do I need music to play through my headphones to break in the tubes....please let me know..... Spiderking31:)

Who has used the GE Jan5654W tubes, and whats your opinion on them? Everyone, let me know....

Little Dot mkiii, Little Dot i+, Bellari HA540. I'm looking to know the differences as far as sound quality. Even if you've only listened to one of these i'd like to hear your impressions on the sound. I'm open to tube rolling. Source will be FLAC or 320 kbps mp3 through foobar with an Odac...

parameters of decision:   both have similar price, so that's not the issue.   I don't like tube rolling. I need it be compatible to fit also IEM's. it needs to be as reliable as possible.   heard good praises about both, but i guess they do have different sound/flavor.    ...

Hey, just wonder say for HD600 or so do I still need an amp for if I'm connecting to an interface such as this: http://www.m-audio.com/products/en_us/ProFire610.html  

After spending some time on the head-fi forums, I am thinking on settling with the HE-400 for my first hi-fi pair.   However, I might go ahead and buy another sub $300 pair for comparison purposes. I was looking for a "bright" headphone that would make the sound signature appear more "fun"...
