    Headphone amps?

I used it mainly as a headphone amp but it was rather nice used near-field with a pair of...

    Headphone amps?

    I happily use 650s - I've used many amplifiers from "cheap and cheerful" to silly money. At the minute I'm very happy with a RNHP, others I liked were the iFi zen signature (much better than the 'standard' and can have tailored EQ for the 650s if you like that sort of thing) and the Graham Slee...

    Chord Qutest question ...

    I wouldn't bother too much about cables ... with the exception of qutest to preamp. As mentioned above use your basic source (personally, I wouldn't worry about HQ player) with the standard PSU and see if you're happy with the sound. Next try the improved PSU, and if you must, swap a few...

    Have dacs changed so much in 10 years.

    My observations/assumptions/bias/perhaps failed recollections: I had a few DACs in the '90s and early 2000s, in these days it was for use with a CD transport (24bit E-transport from dpa or a nice Audiolab 8000 CDM) as streaming was yet to exist at any scale. I used several DACs from...

    A little Chord Mojo 2 DAC - late to the party on this one. Initial impressions - way better than I had hoped, lovely bit of kit, punches above it's weight (size!) ...

    Recommendations for streamer/DAC/desktop headphone amp for the home office?

    iFi Zen signature DAC and Headphone amplifier (much better that the 'standard' issue) - small,neat and surprisingly good for the price. I might try to listen to a pair of HD600 or 650s, even with your current system.

    [FS] Russ Andrews X6 mains extension

    - ah yes, that would be helpful, it's just a standard IEC. I'll happily include a suitable lead - nothing fancy but ok.
