Comment on Labtec Wireless Optical mouse 800 Review by vanmar

The problem you experienced with the mouse was related to battery voltage, when the battery is low the mouse will have issues. Also this mouse does use a lot of battery power so you will need rechargeable. If not a USB bluetooth mouse will be find for you these can be found at any local store

Comment on Firestone Audio Fubar IV Plus Review by Balachandar Radhakrishnan

Thanks for dropping by Antony. In my opinion it is always good to go with a neutral source and color the sound in the amp or headphones. The sound you hear is a synergy between the DAC/headphone amp and the headphone itself! Since you have not mentioned what headphone you are using I will go with popular tastes. If you are looking for an upgrade from the Fubar IV plus you should be looking at DACs like the AudioGD SA1 or NFB10, Schiit Gungnir and so on. Yes, it will get expensive! and those are all dedicated DACs so you have to throw in your own amplifier. You can as well keep the fubar as a source and get a Tube headphone amp like the Little dot and enjoy warm sound (provided you pair it with something warm like the HD650). Hope that helped!

What would you recommend as a good step up from the Fubar iV Plus, bearing in mind that you
state you we ‘pleasantly suprised to see that the DAC Magic pulled ahead only by a slight margin!’ I was thinking, perhaps, of a valve headphone DAC for warmth of sound. But I’m open to
opinions.
