I have some headphones that had other problems that I was holding together with tape/putty etc lol, but I had burned in them so much and I'm so used to them I was just thinking to myself wow these sound good, then all of a sudden the right cup goes near silent, no bass, but there is barely...

Got a mojo 2 and wanted to try optical to see if there was a difference, since it was from older laptop with no optical out all that fit the bill was this gadget https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000KW2YEI/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 so I plugged in a cheapo optical cable...

Few years ago I spent a bunch on audiophile gear, valhalla 2, hd650, alo continental v5, etc, they're all going on ebay soon when I get the energy to go through all that. Couldn't tell much difference between soundstage or mids high etc, all was a bit muddy, because my ears suck, although some...

Was getting mine ready to sell it, hadn't turned it on in years, one of the tube getters (a taller tube) was milky and I noticed a chip, so air got in, must have happened during some handling, so that one is gone, but I never got to finish testing. Is it ok to turn on the unit with 3/4 in, I...

Might be because I have bad ears (medication related I think), or not properly amped (although i have a mojo into cv5) but i've never had a good experience with mine, they sound distant, muddy, jumbled together and underpowered. i have to turn mojo all the way up to white/white near distortion...

I first had this problem with an Apogee groove on all of my usb ports, then I got a chord mojo and it's the same thing so it's definitely something wrong with my system.   I can create the effect at will by turning the brightness on my PC (Lenovo Win 7, few years old but powerful) up or down...

Does any product like this exist? I've looked and looked but everything seems to be in-ear, which I don't like, but I might go ahead and buy some if nothing is on the horizon.   I know it sounds dumb because they would fall out, but with an around the ear hooks design or an earhoox type thing...

I recently got a Fiio A1, which added the little extra volume I was looking for from my phone, but if i put the volume level near maximum, and it hits a certain threshold, the player will automatically stop playing the song (I've tried two different players, same thing), and I have to hit play...

I have a USB dac/amp, does it matter if I plug it into my notebook with the headphones already in, or should I plug it in first and then the headphones in after?   I remember reading on some site about that you should do it a certain way for some reason but I don't remember what it said.

I've decided to get a pair of HD650s and the apogee groove usb DAC/amp for a simple setup for listening on my bed from notebook.   It does 225mW into 30 ohms maximum output, will that be enough? I like to listen to my music fairly loud.   I've read about the less than 1/8 rule for maximum...

I am thinking of either putting a retractable winder       or this device that winds, then pulls them apart         but I'm kind of protective about them because they weren't cheap, can either of these legitimately damage them and if yes, how so?   thanks.

Will this cable work to connect a 3.5mm headphone out from an mp3 player to a 3.5mm input on a portable amp?   http://aloaudio.com/alo-sxc-cryo-22awg-micro-mini-to-mini.html   I'm not familiar with the term micro mini, isn't it the same cable as this essentially?  ...

Does anyone know if these are the exact same headphones aside from that OMX has a clip? I'm probably going to get an OMX just wanted to make sure they weren't different.   Also, does anyone know if when amping them, it would be better to get an amp for cans or iem's? since they are neither...

Hello, I'm looking to build my first portable rig and I'm looking for an amp for the system I am going to get.   The X7 has no LOD so it has to go through the HP, and the Sennheiser phones (which I haven't decided which I'm going to get yet, I believe they're the exact same anyway except for...
