Topping A90D, and questions about balanced vs unbalanced signals
Ok guys, quick question looking for hopefully a quick answer. I recently have decided to try to standardize my cables because it'll just be way easier to buy cables, and I've been considering replacing my main desktop amp anyways. However, my issue is my DAC is the Modi 3 which is single-ended...- GridIroN

ThieAudio Monarch Mk.II vs Unique Melody MEST Mk.II
Hey people, I'm curious for direct comparisons between these two IEMs from those that have tried both, or happen to own both. The Mmk.II is certainly newer, but I haven't seen much in the way of direct comparisons between the new Monarch and the Mest when you'd think these two are probably the...- GridIroN

Can anyone with a Linsoul cable (Nymph, Euphrosyne, LSC09, THIEAudio Est etc) do me a favour...?
Hey guys, I'll keep it brief. I'm looking to pick up some cables to replace some broken/defective ones I've had around here for a while. Some other others I have I've gotten custom made, but I'd rather just buy a decent cable this time around. Thing is, I'm rather sensitive to the weight of...- GridIroN

1964Ears/64 Audio V6-Stage: Getting channel imbalance...help?
Hey guys, I'm posting here because back in the beginning of the year, I ordered a pair of V6-Stage's from 1964 Ears, (now 64 Audio, whatever). I got them in quite a while ago for the first time, and noticed the channels weren't quite balanced. I figured it had to do with fit as the fit was...- GridIroN

Quick Question: FiiO E18 competitors?
Hey Quick question: what would compete with a FiiO E18 for a portable DAC/AMP capable OTG? The C5D is all I can really find and it's near twice the price.- GridIroN

Is there anyway to use the FiiO E18 DAC if you don't want to stack it?
So, I'm interested in picking up an E18 for OTG to bypass my HTC One M8 DAC/AMP -> AMP (E11), but having to make it a stack would be wildly inconvenient. I've been looking up Micro B to micro B cables, and apperantly no one in the world, ever, has required a Micro B to Micro B and thus they...- GridIroN

Hey So, I've been doing some research into upgrading my audio set up recently, and I'm trying to settle on either a Magni/Modi stack or a C5D as my new driver units. The MM is obviously a very well regarded combo and it's not expensive at all, but I'm really liking a lot of the features of...- GridIroN

Upgrading from the AKG K550
Hey guys, I've been thinking of trying out a new headphone lately. I own the Sennheiser HD598, and AKG K550. My 598's don't get much action being open-backed and living with other people around, but I am quite fond of my K550. Both offer very different sound profiles and closed back is great...- GridIroN
