    How To Hi-fi and Windows 11

    On my Windows 11, I have disabled the MB Realtek sound Chipset, so I only listen to sound via the Eversolo DAC. I also had sound devices built into the CAM, one of the usb hubs had headphone jack, it had it's own sound card built-in. It got a bit messy on my PC and there were instances, I was...

    How To Hi-fi and Windows 11

    Windows II is kind of a slow burner, It's essentially Windows 10 with the extra bloat. My Windows 11 is fully compatible with XMOS, ASIO, WASPI etc, as per below. Check you have the latest drivers for your device. I have used Foobar2000 when my setup was Windows 10, it worked perfectly, when I...

    Does What Hi-FI Ever Post a Bad Review?!?

    Also I think, same family of components used in different brands, more modular setups, universal sound type of almost the same quality. This makes it hard to favour one brand over an other.

    sky dishless system

    Sat dishes are going the same way as smokeless chimneys, a year ago, I decommissioned my motorised satellite dish, my top end receiver is collecting dust now. My wife got to see her Russian language shows from various Hotbirds, Eurosat, Astra and other birds floating in space. It was almost a...

    Toxic headphones 🥵

    Biodegradable? Only if you drop them in water! :D I got sheep skin ear pads for my Hifiman, hopefully they'll last a bit. If it goes flakey I'll know they were fake! :)

    Toxic headphones 🥵

    Non-toxic, constructed from wood, the ZMF Ori-3. I was originally looking at these planars but ZMF never reduce their prices! View: https://youtu.be/xOGY88WZjsg?si=_MkFqjLjGipjXd0n

    Toxic headphones 🥵

    So true, I do think they're massively over-priced. My He1000V2's were originally priced £2K (2019) but now heavily discounted, got mine from Audio Affairs for about £850, not toxic at all :)

    Share the love, which isn't toxic! For those who might be interested in planar headphones, Hifiman has knocked down the price of Arya Organic :)

    Toxic headphones 🥵

    Oh my, that's scary. Side effects as per extract from article; early onset of puberty in girls, feminisation of males and even cancer. I do hope the industry, moving forward, can provide us with more transparency, such as labelling of those brands using toxic plastic materials in their...

    Headphone newbie seeking recommendations

    I think most people base their purchasing decisions on the opinion of others, reviews from publications like WHF and of course, the nemesis of many dealerships, YouTube. There are so many variables you need to filter out such as product bias, lazy reviews and sponsorships, this is why going to...
