    RMAF: RIP :-(

    Anyone going? The exhibitor list looks pretty small. Looks like the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest has been permanently cancelled.

    Computer Headphone Out, anyone?

    I have an X570 AORUS ELITE motherboard, and I have to admit, the headphone out sounds pretty good with headphones, and line-out pretty good with my amp and speakers. After a brief test using TH-900 and comparing to a Bifrost Multibit/Bottlehead Mainline, I'm hard pressed to tell the difference...

    Idea for a balanced switch box...

    Well, I haven't built this box yet, but I'm thinking about it. I'm thinking a 4 position box with one 4-pin XLR output and three 4-pin XLR inputs, and one TRS input. The idea is to be able to connect multiple amps to the box and one headphone, then be able to switch between the amps. This...

    Hello, I think a recent style update may have made the font size too small for me. I cannot seem to figure out how to make the font larger int he Head-Fi prefs. Sure, I can make the font larger for the whole browser, but then every other site will have too large fonts. How about a little love...

    Can using Toslink have more bass than USB?

    From the Jotunheim thread, post #630     My question, now is this possible? Is this possible? I realize digital audio is more than 1's and 0's, timing and noise can be a factor, but how can the digital transport change the FR of the output? Can it?

    need recommendation: something open between a Senn HD700 and a Grado RS2e

    The Senn is a little warm for my taste, as well a peaky for certain frequencies. The Grado is a bit too bright, even with MrSpeaker Doggie Treats.   I listen to mostly rock. These headphones are for work, so all I have there is my Mac into a Magni (I cannot have a DAC at work).   I'm...
