    Should measure well and the build and styling look nice.

    Fiio K19 a RME ADI-2 DAC FS Challenger?

    Not sure if I need 16W. Too high for headphones and too low for speakers. How the product support ends up remains to be seen. The RME support is top notch along with Firmware updates and YT video help. An interesting product for sure, however.

    Relatively low volume Grado

    Save your money and go with a different brand. Grado drivers are all the same and if you actually look at the measurements for the various Grado cans yoi can verify the sound is basically the same too. I went from the SR60 on up to the RS1 and never liked any. Uncomfortable and antiquated at...

    Dive deeper into legendary sound. Let’s meet the HD 660S2

    How many times can we reinvent the same headphone. Almost as bad as Grado. Can you please address the lack of bass for the last 20+ years in all of your headphones?

    what would be the use of a small (pF range) capacitor parallel to R4?

    Did I miss the "in-parallel" capacitor in your diagram? Most of the time a parallel capacity to a resistor changes the phase angle of the current and voltage across that component. This helps the current lead or lag the voltage.

    HarmonicDyne G200 — flagship planar-magnetic headphone

    The descending bass response and the variable and peaky treble make this headphone too bright for my taste. Bummer for sure.

    Advice on new headphones - don't like DT770's with new set-up

    I suggest first listening to the DT770 on a phone/tablet/PC and determine if the same tracks you listen to via record sound the same with the headphones. It is quite possible that you are hearing more accurately what records sound like. You should also try listening to your headphones through...

    AIO unit recommendation for desktop

    Try the RME ADI-2 FS. Excellent headphone amp, DAC, and has outputs that may be used for a preamp. The RME website and response to questions is also excellent. Another HUGE advantage of this unit is not only is it tiny, but it comes with an awesome parametric EQ. You can customize many EQ save...

    Topping E30, is something wrong with mine or is it supposed to sound this thin and lifeless?

    Glad you figured it out.

    SMSL SU-8s vs. Schiit Modius

    No need to "upgrade" the DAC. Most decent DAC's these days that measure well sound so similar that you would be hard pressed to hear any difference. Most of the differences in sound come from the reconstruction filter. I would save your money and keep the Modius. I use mine at work all the time...
