    Help Looking for Great Sounding (Wired) Portable Headphones

    Oh and one more thing, I'd like the portable headphones to have balanced capability to connect to my Astel and Kern DAP.

    Help Looking for Great Sounding (Wired) Portable Headphones

    I am open to any price, but would probably prefer under $1,000.... I'd like something that is compact and/or foldable. Something along the size of beats or Bose, but again wired and no noise cancelling.... Thanks again,

    Help Looking for Great Sounding (Wired) Portable Headphones

    Need a smaller, more portable set of headphones for travel... Got LCD's, Focal, Senns, etc... But too big. This is for times, when I tired of my Campfire Audio IEM's. Seems like everything is wireless these days. Thanks in advance

    Fiio M15 As a DAC for my iPhone?

    But I can only do that on Wifi? My iPhone of course can stream on cellular.

    Fiio M15 As a DAC for my iPhone?

    Can I connect my iPhone to the Fiio M15, and use it as a DAC? I'd like to stream Tidal, Qobuz, etc into an external DAC and on to my IEMs or headphones on the go. And still use the M15 DAP to play my high resolution music library. Thanks in advance. Greg

    Hi, just got a new Cayin IDAC-6 and the Cayin IHA-6 amplifier. Problem is the start of songs get cut off (about 1 sec). This happens when I click play for the first song. You hear a relay type click on the Cayin DAC. Some silence, then the song start playing, missing about 1 second. Also...

    Chord Hugo TT and Planar Magnetics

    Just wondering how well the Chord Hugo TT can drive Planar Magnetic headphones? I have the Hifiman HE1000V2, Audeze LCD-XC (which I think would be fine), and the Audeze LCD4. I also have the Focal Utopia. I have the Schiit JOTUNHEIM, which can drive the Hifiman and Audeze fine. But I was...

    Confused: how does a 4-pin XLR balanced output to headphones work?

    Thanks for the advice. I guess I am one of those always searching for audio nirvana. In the end, I wonder how much some of these smaller things matter.
