    NAD M51 Direct Digital DAC Impressions

    Quote:   I am getting the "blue" box verification of 'Audio Path: Direct' using JRMC 17.0.182 on Win7Ult --> USB -> NAD M51.   Can confirm that the NAD M51 is a stellar performer via USB using JRMC on Win7 or FLAC Player on iPad1.

    New Audeze LCD3

    Quote:   Quote:   I originally posted the "Classic Sinatra" so I'll own the responsibility for clarification, since Bob Norberg is a topic of some controversy amongst Sinatra cognoscenti. LFF is right - considerable liberties were taken in the remastering of the "Classic...

    New Audeze LCD3

      Quote:   arnaud - thanks for the observations, much appreciated.   However, the potential measurement artifact to which I'm referring is the dip at 8.8KHz (not the bump at ~11KHz) because 8.8KHz appears to be the only freq at which the new LCD-3 displays less freq response than...

    New Audeze LCD3

      Quote:   As follow-up to my earlier post (and just for grins) I thought I'd superimpose the two FR charts of the original un-veiled LCD-3s and the replacement LCD-3s.   Two observations: 1. Audeze are now starting their FR charts at 20Hz instead of 10Hz. 2. New LCD-3s chart...

    New Audeze LCD3

      Quote:   I'm the "someone else" to whom purrin is referring.   The cutting-in/out of the right driver on the LCD-3s occured during the Head-Fi Village Headphone Meet 2012 last Sunday in Hollywood.   We swapped cables between several sets of LCD-3s to eliminate the cable as the...

    Best Headphones for me (Under $150)

    You could do worse than make the same choice as the majority of professional sound engineers and go with the Sony MDR-7506 (the succesor to the critically acclaimed Sony MDR-V6).   Watch any video featuring musicians in the studio and this is likely what you'll see them wearing.   Wiki...

    Ultrasone HFI 780 VS. Ultrasone 750 Pro VS. Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro

    I have the Beyer DT770 Pro 80s, and they play OK straight out of an iPad. It's a closed back phone so ambient noise shouldn't be too much of an issue, but some folks might want more sound pressure given a nosiy background (i.e. airplane or bus).   The DT770 250 will produce even less sound...

    The ecp audio L-2 is a single tube, parafeed, "spud" amplifier for dynamic headphones. The L-2 uses a single high-mu, high-Gm tube for both amplification and output power. The L-2 does not merely use up-to-date parts, it is a thoroughly modern tube circuit design based on the culmination of...

    Looking to get first headphones

    Given your short list, price range, and preference for quality you might consider the Ultrasone Pro 750.   The S-Logic feature has never impressed me that much, but I listen to my Pro 900s often and enjoy them thoroughly.   Comes w a hardcase, two cords, two sets of ear pads; and the...

    Calling All "Vintage" Speaker Owners

    Purchased JBL L-36s in 1975, along with a JVC JR-S400 receiver and a Dual 1249 turntable. Still own these great representatives of the '70s Hi-Fi scene.

    ecp audio DSHA-1 Solid State Headphone Amplifier

    The DSHA-1 is a solid state headphone amp quite unlike any other amplifier on the market. The differential topology uses Lundahl amorphous core input transformers to provide passive noise-free voltage gain selectable to 6dB or 12dB. The novel MOSFET based output buffer couples to the headphones...

    We've seen SQ and manufacturing consistency discussed. Thought I'd post the Audeze FR for my set so others can compare against their set.

    Looking for some new headphones for piano primarily

    Sentient - you might also consider a Sony MDR-V6 or MDR-7506.   These are the consumer and professional version of Sony's "standard" Studio Montiors that get used in recording studios all over the world every day. These are both closed back phones, so you will get the sound isolation you...

    Ultrastone 900 Pros vs Beyerdynamic DT-770 Pro 80 oms for DUB & DnB

    I agree with benzoylmethyl about no disappoitments going unamped.   I played the PRO900s and the DT770s unamped straight out of my iPad. No problem with either.   In fact, the PRO900s seemed to give slightly better SPL than did the DT770s. A little surprising because the PRO900s have...

    Ultrastone 900 Pros vs Beyerdynamic DT-770 Pro 80 oms for DUB & DnB

    Listened to your latest dub list on the Beyers and the Ultrasones. Especially "Love Goes Down" at 1:30 and 1:52   Still think you'd really like the Beyer DT770 Pro 80s. They have more of the subwoofer in your head sound.   But, as I said earlier you give up some detail and get more...

    No Headphones. Looking at either the Sony MDR7506's or the KRK KNS8400. Help me choose please?

    The cans that I own in this price range are the Sony MDR-7506. I bought them to replace a pair of Sony MDR-V6s that I'd owned for 21 years.   The MDR-V6 is the consumer version of the MDR-7506, which is part of Sony's professional headphone line. Differences are in the magnet materials...
