Still rocking my classic Edifier S530D and R2800

But audiophile or not, I appreciate good audio.
Nothing beats the rawness of a classic amp+passive speaker combo. But in this era, the new speakers with built-in DSP are plenty good. Bluetooth is catching up. Streaming services are increasing in quality.

I am happy as long as full-range audio is presented to me.

Recently serviced a modern audiophile Marantz amp and compared it to my vintage Sansui AU-D707F because I need to run it in for prolonged period of time.
I much prefer my vintage amp than the modern one.

You can also try using some wd40 on the jack hole  that might help also.

Not recommended, it forms an oily film and gets gummy and attracts dust.
Use contact cleaner instead. Most MR Diy sells them in the electronics section or more expensive better ones can be found in Ace Hardware.

Hi there

If I remember correctly, did you do recabling service for Koss KSC75? If yes, I still remember you recabled my KSC75 around 13 years ago in a near public university area, at your place. I was year 2 or 3 in the univ during that time.

After university, I slowly stopping my audiophile hobby, as life priority changed. Back then in university I think I could afford having audiophile hobby because I had more free time. Now while I may have bit more money as I'm working, I don't have the time to enjoy the sound properly.

I hope one day I can make comeback to this hobby. Cheers.

PcWork is quite a legend when it comes to custom cables biggrin.gif
Symphonica for the HD650 is very highly regarded. I myself had the DR150 cable for my Goldring headphones.

Not sure what's a Zero DAC. The one from Little Dot?
