lp records are much more warmer sounding. the mids have more detail to them.
digital is great for clearity but you do lose some warmth in the sound.

Yep fair question.
You talked about those extra frequencies, an LP record - played on a reasonable
turntable through a reasonable Hi-Fi setup exhibits some of those extra
frequencies you would find in HD audio thus listeners often talk about the
difference between CD and record.
As for me? Wel
Interesting. I'm not sure I've ever heard an LP record. So can't judge. But it
does raze the question my mind, how could it compare to 192 KHZ 24 bit LPCM?

The z 653 set from logitech is one of the best I've used to this very day!
Most desktop 2.1 sets only go up to forty watts, this one is 200.

And that’s why so many people say the LP records “Sound” better than CD’S.

Yeah and even though at 192 24 bit it's said that you capture more than you can
actually hear, it still is good to do so so you have all the data points of
your source.

Hi John,
So this comes with a short cable that has a lightning connector on one
end and usb on the other which plugs into the headphone amp? Is that

different inputs into the amp, one for androids and one for i-devices.

Hi first of all how much are you wanting to spend?
I would like to just suggest A company called the harbolt company.

Fair question.
A DAC won’t restore the information that has been discarded by a MP3 encoder on
a file however it does enhance the content that is already there so yep,
certainly a difference.
One could also say that you’re able to more easily distinguish the difference
between a Lossless and M
I'm just curious as to whether or not anyone on the list can recommend a
good set of computer speakers--preferably a 2.1 system as I don't have lots
of room-for under $200 U.S.?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks, Mary…ah well, looks like more financial outlay! LOL

Hi Richard,
A dac can give you better sound from mp3 files. Really, what might be
happening is that the phones are driven better by the amplifier in the
unit, as opposed to the crappy one that is part of most portable
digital devices, but the end result is improved sound. I use to have a
low end p
Just as a matter of interest, can DAC improve the sound of compressed files
such as MP3 or do you really only notice the difference on lossless?

Actually hearing does matter when it comes to frequencies. For instance when
on the Twit network HD audio is discussed, Leo Laporte always points out
that he can't really appreciate what higher sample rate and bit death does
for the music as well but as he always says making fun of himself he has o

I don’t knock people for having analogue systems or anything else and you
pretty much summed it up yourself when you talked about people getting what
they could afford to buy and that’s fair enough as I’m in that boat too however
I do look around for the good audio and if it means I have to save

I haven't gone to the manufacturers website to check the technical details. On
the Amazon site, they are described as close back, planar, and magnetic. So
they may be what you are talking about.

Hi!
Well, this is a good question as i am often very skeptical when hifi nerds
speak out their minds.
I think that others might think of them as not very open minded.
I am not a hifi nerd in my own perspective.
But people know that i am very audio intrested and that i do want good audio
quality.

I'm looking to buy another set of headphones - can't have enough
headphones around the place - so I may look at those.
Only a personal view of course but they're going to have to be pretty
good to come anywhere near the B&W P7.

I have a question which someone might be able to give me some advice on.

Hi Mary
I think you would notice a massive difference. I haven't heard the Oppo PM3s
but judging by the reviews they are certainly on a par with the P7s and
would sound incredible with the HA-2.

Something should!
Oppo makes a pair of headphones that seem to be quite favorably
reviewed, at least by amazon purchasers. These are the pm-3, and they
sell for a cool 400 bucks, so not cheap. One reviewer even compared
them favorably
.and I'm very impressed. I've only had a short time to try it out but I
think it's great. The audio with the P7s is quite perfect even just
