HD800 - Pad Cleaning
I've had my HD800s for coming up to a year now, and considering they sit on my head for 12+ hours per day, it's getting to the point where they seriously need a wash. I'm not too worried about the actual process of removing the pads or the headband, but I do have a question regarding...- Jademalo

Xonar Essence STX - Electronic Noice when using Speaker out
To preface - This has only started recently, which is why I'm so confused. I have this card in a http://www.gigabyte.com/fileupload/product/2/3892/4495_big.jpg in PCIEX1_1 with SLI GTX570s in the x16 and x8 slots. Using the headphone out with a pair of HD800s with the internal amp set for...- Jademalo

Any way to test balance?
I can't help but have a nagging feeling that my sound output isn't completely balanced. It feels like the right channel is just one or two notches weak, but I can't tell for sure. I want to do an objective balance test, rather than it being subjective to my hearing. If this is the case, what...- Jademalo

Need advice on HD800s + Amps
Budget is about £1750, HD800s are £1k exactly and the amp is £750. That amp looks gorgeous... But it's completely out of my price range =[- Jademalo

Need advice on HD800s + Amps
I'm in a situation currently where I can potentially get myself a pair of HD800s. I had a listening test with a pair of them and some HD700s yesterday, and I absolutely love the sound of them. I also would be in a position to get a Lehmann Black Cube Linear Headphone Amp, and from what...- Jademalo

The Xonar Essence STX Q/A, tweaking, impressions thread
Thanks, I'll just leave it on 48 =] Right guys, last question - I promise! I seem to be getting an ASIO crash when using 44.1KHz with ableton live 8.3 Using http://www.tropicalcoder.com/ASIOTestSigGen.htm seems to be fine, on 44.1 and 48. Ableton however, crashes after 2 seconds or...- Jademalo

The Xonar Essence STX Q/A, tweaking, impressions thread
Ok, thanks! It seems that ASIO isn't working without the External power either, so I'm gonna have to dive back into my case to try and fix that. Also, is it worth just leaving the card on 48KHz to counter the background noise, or should I keep it at 44.1 for music? I didn't notice the...- Jademalo

The Xonar Essence STX Q/A, tweaking, impressions thread
Hey guys, thanks a ton for those answers! =] Anyway, I've got another question, and this one has to do with background hiss. When I have the card set to 44.1KHz, there is a noticable background hiss when no sound is playing. However, with 48/96/192, there is none. ..And before I've...- Jademalo

The Xonar Essence STX Q/A, tweaking, impressions thread
Hey, I've got a question about Opamps I'm a little confused why there are three. I'm guessing that the third one up front is for something specific to the white and red out. Is it that one is for the left channel, and one is for the right? If so, that leaves me a little bit confused...- Jademalo
