    Wired IEMs/Earbuds with good microphone for conference calls and music :)

    My colleagues have been telling me over the last few months that my voice sounds quite muddy whenever I take conference calls and I always thought it was most probably my WiFi. I use the KEF M100 earbuds and never thought they would have crappy microphones but then I was in our HQ with high...

    Buy Darkvoice 336SE from Amazon or Drop.com ?

    Well, Drop.com has the Darkvoice 336SE for about $213 including shipping. Problem is there's just a 30 day return policy and after that you are out of luck if you have issues with your item. Amazon on the other hand is selling the same via the Shenzhen Audio Store with Prime Shipping and it...

    Recommendation for first Tube Amp!

    Just got a desk and I can finally set up a desktop listening station. Have a Schiit Modi 3 + Magni 3 stack but wanted to venture into the world of tube amps. Budget around $150-200. What might be good starter tube amps that will pair nicely with my DT 880 250 ohms?

    Still a favorite combo : DT880 & the Mojo !

    The Mojo is a fantastic DAC/AMP and has more than enough power to drive the DT880s (250 ohms) that I have. Well the DT880s are fantastic ! Pretty big soundstage, great resolution and separation and good bass. But sometimes the treble gets a little sparkly. I also run it through Oppo HA2 (Line...

    Good headphones for Rock around $250/$300 ?

    For headphones, I have the Beyerdynamics DT880 and the Ultrasone Signature Studios which I really like. Both are great headphones and sound fantastic. I am looking for a headphone to augment my collection for around $250-300. I am looking for a little more bass than the ones that I own and a...

    USB Audio on the Pixel XL (Android 8.0) and DACs...

    So I just picked up an Oppo HA2 from the classifieds and I am extremely excited to try it out. While I assumed that audio over USB should be pretty painless it seems that is not the case. The Pixel XL comes with a USB C interface and I picked up this OTG cable to use the HA2 with. Will this...

    Beyerdynamic DT 880 with Fiio A5 : Having second thoughts...

    I recently acquired a set of DT 880s (250 ohms) and bought a Fiio A5 to drive them. While I like the combo, I was wondering if I should have tried out other amps namely, the Cayin C5, Topping NX5 and maybe the Aune B1 which is a little above the price range I am looking at, before I made the...

    Portable Amp for the Beyerdynamic DT 880 250 ohms (Premium)...

    Hey guys, Just got my DT 880s and I love them. I feel like throwing out my ATH M50x and Beyerdynamic DT1350 after listening to the DT 880. Missus wants my 880 but I am not letting her take it... If this is what it can do with a low powered amp I would love to see what it does with one that can...

    Beyerdynamic DT 880 Premium 250 ohms - Will I like them?

    So I am a headphone noob trying to venture into the waters of good headphones and amps. I have a Audio Technica ATH-M50X which I do not like that much (but definitely don't dislike) because I feel the bass is too hollow/airy for lack of a better word and a Beyerdynamic DT1350 which I like quite...
