…it is not the point. I do not think that you need to try anything else. I replied to you not with the intention to tell you what to try and what to buy - I habitually do not do it and you could get this idiotic counsel at many other sites. The reaso...

[quote user="Paul S"]N-set, are you pretty sure that the "direct drive" tube amp need not be PP?  Does the Stax amp have +/- typical RC output?  Would it perhaps make more sense to "update" the Stax amp?ATH-50 cans would sure make your life easier......

I asked Guy Hummel to put a headphones jack into my new unit. Guy put the jack, the switch that redirect signal to headphone or to the main output. It is so cool to have a headphone option – I have no idea why I did not ask him to do it before. In ad...

Ok, the Headphone “Baby Melquiades” protect is over. Well, kind of over as there are some issues still are hanging in there. A brief summary. The initial idea was to use the Melquiades’ input stage to drive headphones.  Unfortunately it did not...

Headphones can help people build good cheap systems, and/or also not have to worry about the room, annoying others with loudness. There's some ground to cover that shouldn't be THAT hard or expensive. If you've "given up" on finding good headphone so...

Hmmm...let's see, I'm pretty young, to the point where I don't have any major source of money income, so I do with what I can when I can and want to, just like many other suffering young and/or poor audiophiles. It's like this, I don't listen to any ...
