Fostex x Massdrop TH-X00 Review
Feb 10, 2016 at 6:50 PM Post #4,921 of 12,086
Yo guys, I just ordered my TH-X00s a week ago and want to get an amp(/dac) for it.
What would you guys prefer? Aune X1s(300$+taxes=350$) vs. CEntrance DACport Slim (99$+taxes=130$)
Which one should I buy for rock music? I wont really need the portability thought it's always nice to have.
Thanks a lot,
P.s. please reply fast- the DACport drop ends in 5 days hehe

I'm pretty active, here, too. Does that mean I work for Massdrop or Fostex? Pfff...


its was supposed to be a Joke, I understand most audiophiles don't get them, just like math :wink:

Damnit, I should have included a smiley on my post. Does that mean your math is as bad as most audiophiles, too? :wink:

I got it. You get a +9 for content and a +7 for presentation which equals a + 19. Not too bad.


haha, yes +19 seems like a decent score

I jumped on the drop since I've been in the market for a new headphone. Has anyone had any experience pairing a Fostex with the Geek Pulse?  Currently using my Geek Pulse with the Ultrasone HFI2400.  Also what headphone stands do you guys recommend? I know some say to just get a cheap banana holder, but being my first headphone I'm spending over $200 on, I'd like to display it nicely.

I have the Fostex ST300 headphone stand and I like it

I have two, and soon to be three, of the Oppo Digital Stands. They're a little pricey at $79, but also have a nice cord wrap. You will need that for the TH-X00. Can't speak highly enough of these. Very classy!

  It's prime


you are right, I worked on a project for distribution of prime numbers among positive integers. Prime numbers also have other useless/useful qualities that analysis teaches us.

 - but if you want to learn some fun math, you should look up 1. set theory 2. why two negative integers create a positive integer.

Does this have rubber feet or anything to keep it from moving around?
