Never heard the old ones but wouldn't describe the actives as in yer face. If anything they can maybe be a little dark and polite at times. Could just be our living room though I think there is some...

The one that is on for £300?

Had the mk1 version for a few years now and recently pulled the trigger on the mk2 as I have been so happy with it. Have a Jds Atom to compare it to and the NJC seems...

I'm using a BTR5 for portable use. They are very good and not overly expensive. Can connect as a USB dac or Bluetooth. Didn't feel like I was missing too much when we were away paired with shuoer...

I have both the D50s and the SEG. Both are good dacs but with the dorado I think the SEG is the more satisfying. Detail is not forced as much as the topping and gives a nice clear natural...

I have been using raspberry pi and 2 and also the cubox-i with my jkdac32 for a while, its hiface 1 based so uses the same driver. Wasn't aware it was entered into the kernel though, that bit of...

They are images of the sd cards so most of it will probably be empty space on the IQ image. Can't remember about volumio but standard rune audio has the i2s drivers, you just need to uncomment a...

I picked some up Sam, only the R2A though. I wanted some portable ones as while the KSC75 are nice there are times a good IEM would work a lot better.

Hoping they live up to the good reviews.

Just to make it clear, the ones in the link are the LFF modified ones, they don't require additional modding, but they are an example of what can be done with the t50RP's which are much cheaper in...

If you don't mind a bit of modding then Fostex T50RP headphones can be made to sound very good.

I got some of these recently....

Not bought a lot this year so this is quite easy.

LFF Paradox headphones.

Not that this makes these headphones any less good, they were worth every penny.

Nice find Adam. Yes it looks like an Ankar, on the .com site they state 2.1A. To be fair the Astro 3E may be good enough for the job and is much cheaper. Whether it will perform as well is a...

Thanks Martin, I was struggling to find the specs for that. I was hoping for 2A at least, 1.5 might be pushing it slightly.

Does anyone know how much current this can output. I'm thinking of trying one of the Cubox-i mini computers, which are supplied with 5V/3A adaptors, and the nice Aqvox USB supply I have will...

I don't know about JRiver but there is a short and easy script you can write into Foobar. It's shown in one of the images in the main folder on the MQN Google drive.

To be honest I never intended the test to go that far. I didn't hide the results but I'm not convinced this should make a difference, either the difference is audible and can be judged, or is not...

Possibly yes. At times I even thought A matched up with B and couldn't shake that out of my head which needed more time to jar that loose. It's certainly no way to listen to music.

The track was Trafik - Indestructible. I'm sure there are more suitable better mastered tracks to test with though.

I converted a file using lame to 320 mp3. Conducted 35 tests in total, some short, some switching a lot. At the start it was difficult, I had to try and locate a reference point where one sounded...

It sounds like the Pro models might be a bit of a bargain. Have you compared the different models at all Werner?

Just played a track with it, then played the same track with XXHE. Think I'm still favouring XXHE, similar to jplay there seems to be still a small lack of physicality there, bass is nice and solid...

According to the TI page the PCM2707 has a USB receiver built in, which maybe why it is in there. It also has SPDIF out, so whether it passes this on to the Wolfson afterwards is anyone's guess.

Get back to work dobby!

Been very happy with my NJC...

Should tick the looks department too, it's a bit like the CI.

You could have a look on ebay to see if the Sony MDR-1R are still going cheap. I use these more than the 325is at the moment. The Grado's still have a certain appeal but the Sony's are a little...

Thanks for info, the wood is very nice but the wallet would hate me. Besides they still make me sit and listen and not want to move as they are.
