Just spliced up an extra USB cable and wired pos/neg directly to the battery terminals inside the amp. Light comes on and everything so I think it should work :)   Tested working fine lol, guess I just solved my own problem. Thanks anyways!

So, I have an old E11 that I used to use when at school and such. No longer at school it hasnt been used for a while.    Want to use it so I can use headphones w/ TV but that would require me to charge it then un plug it all the time. Would rather just be able to plug it into a USB port on my...

Ended up getting a (used) pair of MDR-V6's for $40 and a Xonar DG for $30 and holy crap can I say, as a somewhat basshead, with an EQ moderately tuned towards bass, these things put out the smoothest bass I've ever hear in my life without getting muddy or anything.   As far as virtual surround...

Which do YOU think would be the bigger upgrade - XB600/UE4000 to MDR-V6 ~OR~  on-board audio to Xonar DG/DX?

So, I do a lot of PC gaming. Like, too much.  I currently have two perfectly-working pairs of headphones, one the Sony XB-600 and the other the Logitech UE4000. I also listen to a lot of music, mainly electronic (Wolfang Gartner, Deadmau5, Bassnectar, etc.).   I love the two headphones for...

Soooo I went and did this thing where you refer people to buy a PS Vita and you get Sony Reward Points. They came in yesterday and I got a total of 10,000 points. Now I'm trying to figure out if I should buy the XB600s for 9,999 (basically all my points) or if I should get the XB400's for 6,000...

This *sounds* nice but... can you send me a pic of what it would look like? Doesn't need to be completed, just like what the cable, plug, and split would look like?  

Is there anywhere I can purchase a "complete" recable wire?  The wire that runs through the headband of my HFI 780 got pulled inside somehow and my right ear doesn't work - using a piece of speaker wire to contact the right driver straight to the contact points on the "chip" inside the right...

I'm looking for a high-capacity DAP for my new HFI 780's and E11 to go along with.. Right now I have an iPod touch 4th gen and I'm just not impressed by the sound quality. I want something with good sound quality and at least 60gb storage, more like 120 is preferred... I wanna load up on...

Hey guys just last Friday I got my HFI 780's in! I want to take them with me with my E11 amp. Problem is how big they are. I don't want to take a bag with me to carry everywhere I go, and hanging around the neck is uncomfortable (for me).  I was wondering if there was a belt clip I could...

Just got my HFi-780s.  Modded (removed sticker from inside) and using a FiiO E11, still could use a little more bass. Any amp up to ~$200 you guys can suggest to bring out even more bass? I don't mind spending a bit because even if I buy different headphones I can always use the same amp...

How comfy are the ultrasones? Also how is the sound leakage and sound blocking? I like to listen to music in school a LOT which entails both extremely quiet and extremely loud environments.

Quote: LOL! SKULLCANDY? I'M NOT THAT NOOB! sorry I usually harrass people who have Skullcandies so I literally find this comical! I actually own a pair of EX1000s for very portable use, I'm not super noob to headphones I just never know what to choose when I'm buying.

Hmmm, I'm still leaning to the Ultrasones, thanks for all the suggestions though... any particular reason I should NOT get the Ultrasones?

Quote: Not big on Bose due to previous bad experiences, same for Koss, but I'm open to Sennheiser suggestions - just there are so many I'm not sure which ones to pick :P  

Quote: Sorry but looks are an instant turn off for me on those ones.  I don't need the BEST looking headphones, but if I'm paying a lot, I want to at least enjoy the look of them.. No offense those are just *ugly* TO ME.

  Quote: Swedish house mafia is awesome too :) And I DO like the looks of the Ultras! :D  

Looking to spend around $200 for some nice circumaural cans. They have to be CLOSED, COMFORTABLE, and STYLISH. And have to be great for electronic - mainly mids for synths and good bass, but still i want good highs. Looking to buy TONIGHT! I am currently picking between ATH 900s, HFI...

Ended up buying some Sony EX1000's thanks to help from i2ehan. I can NOT wait to experience musical euphorea. Upgrading from $40 IEMs to $500? I can tell you already NO MATTER WHAT I will be impressed. I always thought sound cant be worth that much, but an upgrade from $20 to $40 told me...

Quote: STOP IT! YOU KEEP MAKING ME SECOND THINIK MY CHOICES! LoL... Seriously though, I want to order before 10 tonight. (4 hours.)  EVERYONE help me narrow down what I should get. Please!

I checked out the Westone 4s but from what I read people really prefered the W3s... Not sure what to get at all LOL... Best I've ever used is $100 cans so these are gonna be better no matter what

TWell, I'm looking to finalize my purchase tonight. So far I'm looking mainly at the IE8. Unless someone really convinces me otherwise, they look nice. Removable cord, nice looks, and I love sennheiser. Trust there sound quality. I am still open to suggestions, however. If you can all really...

Quote: To be honest, I'm over the bass impact phase, I got these cans that literally vibrate your skull with bass, and thought they were awesome. Then got some UE200Vi's and the bass was much less loud, but the bass range was SOOO much more. I'm just adding that for $4-500 I feel like my...

Uhhh... As I said I'm noob, most I've ever spent on IEM is $40, and my cans im using cost me $100... soo... Uhhh?? This is really hard. Distinct, clean highs... Deep, flavored bass, REALLY powerful but NOT overpowering.. mids that dont get overpowered, but aren't overpowered, just right...

Quote: I'd prefer universal because then it's easier for my friends to use, etc. plus... for some reason I just dont want customs yet LoL. Thanks, ill check thous out
