IFI iDSD Nano Black Label Review: Buy This Instead of a Schiit Stack

Can’t comment on opening it up. -
Need a pair of headphones. Budget 250$ but willing to go up to 375$

Yes, but not without the qurhor’s approval I don’t believe. -

Well you see the problem is the guy who wrote it is no longer active. I would have no issue with re-writing it, but I can't have my thread take the place of his I don't think. -

I didn't test that because I don't believe in DSD. Very expensive, not much available in it, and at that point you are being insane, you can't hear a bit rate that high. -

Well there are good planars, they just are very different from dynamics and have their own issues. Some would say you pay quite the premium. The HE-300 is not a planar. The HE-4XX is, it's a good headphone, but not worth it's price when the HD58X exists. -

But is not relevant anymore. Most of the headphones are no longer in those price ranges, and some aren't made anymore. -

Well those aren't a Massdrop headphone. The Dekoni Blue is just the cheapest on Massdrop, but not a Massdrop headphone. Massdrop has the T-X0 that I reviewed that is truly awful. -
The Azio Retro classic if you like that style has a second set of keycaps for Mac and a Mac setting on the keyboard. Pricey, but pretty neat look if you are into that. https://www.amazon.com/Azio-Retro-Classic-Bluetooth-Artisan/dp/B078915Q1P/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1539538097&sr=8-3&keywords=azio+retro+keyboard

They work for home use. They are right on the edge of being an on ear depending on the size of your ear. But they are quite comfortable. -
I've been out of the audio section for a while. I've honestly been busy and to be 100% honest it just get exhausting after a while of answering the same questions hundreds of times. I'll be back sooner or later.
As for headphones, I am selling off lots of headphones. I am trying to downside my collection and get some higher end stuff. I ordered some Focal Elex, those will be here Wednesday. I'll give a list of stuff for sale and if anyone is interested in any of it let me know and we can talk prices, condition, prices, etc...

There are a lot less good closed headphones than open one, but there are still a few good options. I will give a list of a few of my picks at many different price ranges. I would recommend getting a cheap DAC/Amp something like the Schiit Fulla 2 or FX Audio DACX6 at least to start. AKG K553/K550 Status Audio CB-1 Sony MDR-1A B&O H6 Dekoni Blue (Amp required) Fostex T60RP (Amp required) Audeze Sine Closed Back (Amp required + 3D printed pad adapters and HM5 pads) -

FYI this guide is very outdated. -
Are you sure whatever overclocks you had running are actually applied?

[Update]Amazon institutes $15 minimum wage for all US employees AND eliminates monthly bonuses and Stock Grants
Max_Settings replied to AluminiumTech's topic in Tech News
Terrible decision, but you are a snowflake and blocked me so you’ll never see this. $15 minimum wage does nothing but fuck over poor people.
