I have the Phillips SHP9500 + VMODA Boompro mic combo and would like more power, but I want to use the mic still. Is there anything else I can add alongside this to keep the functionality of my Mic?...

That's an example of a helpful post.
Unlike the other guy who says this is overpriced and then doesn't have anything to add.

Lots of expensive headphones are garbage, and some of the ~100 range headphones are darned good. But the best cost a lot, from what I've seen.

Actually the monoprice THX is better built and measures slightly better, I own the monoprice and prefer it over the Drop and the SMSL Sp200 THX amps. I also tried the Asgard 3 and preferred the...

A fool or not, his (or your) money will be parted one way or the other, I say :) Kidding aside, this is a great deal. Drop has a 30day free return policy if you are on the fence. When I started this...

I honestly don't care about the marketing or the way the factory makes the sausage. Their product delivers low distortion, low noise, and high power. It does everything well, not just SNR. Nothing...

Regarding the "snake oil" comment THX and their marketing for their amplifier modules reminds me of Bose in the 1990s. THX puts a lot of focus on isosteric specs like low SNR that really doesn't...

Balanced outputs resist interference and are often designed to carry more power. If you have no interference and need no more power, then which cable you use depends on what your headphones have. ...
