Some have requested a drop on the Sennheiser HD6xx. I added my name to that. I couldn't find a sensitivity for these headphones; what would that be? I was looking at Mayflower and JDS Labs for the o2/odac combo unit. Do you know if there is any difference or if one is better? I couldn't see the...

Thanks for replies How much do the HD-6XX go for on Massdrop; are they offered often? Will the o2 be enough for them? I like a few genres of music, rock: electric and accoustical, classical, folk. How do these sound with these types of music?

I was thinking of these headphones: https://www.massdrop.com/buy/akg-k7xx-massdrop-first-edition-headphones They are: 'Massdrop x AKG K7xx Audiophile Headphones' Would like to hear about experiences from people who have listened to these: - sound and build quality? How is the comfort on these...

Thanks for the replies. I think this amp should be OK. I made a mistake on the S/N or the 1502. It should have been 97 and 103. One question about class D. I am listening to some of the videos of Gene DellaSala. He said that a switch mode power supply if not designed well can react to speaker...

I am looking to get some new speakers the ones I have are worn out. Not sure what I will need. Don't listen to music overly loud. The reason I was looking at the Crown 1502 is it has a fair amount of power into 4 ohms, which I thought would be good for dips and in case I wanted to get 4 ohm...

What do you mean by a stock fan? I found the lowered SNR from the specs on the 1502: https://www.crownaudio.com/en/products/xls-1502 " Signal to Noise >103dB (at .775Vrms, 6dB lower)

I am considering getting the Crown xls1502 amplifier. I will be using this for music. I have some questions and am hopeful someone will be able to help. - I have heard that most people don't have problems with the fans, but some have. I am wondering what experiences here are and if there is a...

Sorry for the confusion. I want something for stereo to listen to music. I could go for a 2 channel amp, either an integrated or a receiver. I also thought I could use a multichannel receiver and use it for stereo. I find the AVR receivers a little confusing with all the options since I haven't...

I am interested in a stereo amplifier for music. I would consider a multichannel that could be set for 2 channel. I have read that amplifiers that have good ratings for 4 ohm speakers are better to allow for dips in impedance or if I want to run 4 ohm speakers in the future. What kind of specs...

I am looking for an amplifier and would be interested in hearing experiences with class D. I am not familiar with this technology and how it is for sound, and durability. For an AB amp I would probably look at 50-100 watts; how much power in class D would be comparable to that? I am seeing...

Thanks, I enjoyed the article and links in it. I am a little confused about something: In one of the links: http://www.audioholics.com/loudspeaker-design/loudspeaker-sensitivity "if a speaker has a lower impedance, it will play louder for the same voltage input from the amp" How does this relate...

Those speakers are 84.5 db and 6 ohms. How does that relate to an 8 ohm speaker? What do I need for an amplifier to power these speakers for volume and resistance? The speakers being 6 ohms will probably need an amp that can put out more current. How far away would you put these speakers from...

I am looking to set a listening area for a stereo system: I have read the articles on the website: Room Acoustics, System Layout & Setup I have also been looking at this website: http://realtraps.com/art_room-setup.htm The layout at realtraps looks good, but I still would like some feedback on...

What would be good for electrical check? For the capacitors how should this be tested?

For portable I have a sansa cllip+ Also have an adapter: 3.5mm (can plug this into player) with dual rca phone plugs. Would this be adequate? Have a 3.5mm to 3.5mm plug

By turning down the bass would this be just ajusting the tone control on the amp? Thinking of speakers hopefully within $1000. I am looking for speakers for a stereo amp. I listen to rock, folk: led zeppelin, john Fogerty, Bruce Springsteen, Neil Young. Like electrical as well as acoustic...

I am also wondering how an amp that can deliver more current into lower impedances like 4 ohm or dips in speakers operates different than one that can't. What king of sensitivity for speakers would be good for a 50 or 100 watt amp? I am looking at a listening area of about 10' distance to...

I am looking for a used integrated amplifier. What things should I look for when checking out the amp: sound or the physical hardware? any tests, I could get a voltmeter or some other device if not expensive to help. Joe

Computer: motherboard: Asus Prime b250-plus CPU: Intel i3-7100 My onboard sound isn't working well, and I would like to improve the sound. I am looking to get a usb sound adapter. Looking for stereo, that I can use for stereo headphones and to plug into a stereo amplifier. What do I need to...

I am interested in purchasing a set of headphones. I need some advice in this area. I'm not sure if I want to go wired or wireless with something like Bluetooth. I want to use these at home mostly with a computer. My preference would be with what sounds better. Looking for something up to...
