I don't know, with both the left(L) and right(R) audio channels being RCA, calling it Dual RCA made sense to me. Plus those are Wyvern Audios words, not really mine. Actually... Googling it also brings up tons of legit products with that terminology everywhere. I'm ultimately trying to...

Apologies, *Dual RCA.    On second thought, found this -...

Might consider this. I'm typically a DIY'er and all for saving cash. Is that basically all it is? No need to really show off the cups...

Well slight problem. I just received the Modi 2 and its only output is left and right audio channels. Probably my fault for not verifying. Guess I'll be shipping that right on back.   Maybe they make them with the standard 3.5mm headphone jack.

  Very interesting. Just read a few articles on these. Aye, not cheap. But worth it if I get the sound I'm after. A listening sample of the RS-1's may justify an initial cost. I set up an ebay notification for any used ones floating around in my price range in the meantime. 

  Great response. And thank you. Yeah that sonic attack felt in the chest cavity from an "audiophiles" mid bass driver is what I wish I could replicate on headphones(no not with the "Subpac"). I know that can't be done with headphones but if it attacks enough without damaging ears, I could...

  Hey ProtegeManiac, appreciate the response and info. Yeah, not so much worried about surround sound, at all really. It’s just the “action” such as explosions and gun shots don’t have a sonic cracking drive that I know these headphones can do with their transient abilities. It’s almost like...

I have a huge pinch for the best headphone audio possible when gaming. I don't do mic stuff at all. But I'm underwhelmed when gaming. Music alone sounds better on my Macbook Pro, which from what I understand is because of its better built in DAC. I've also read about problems with my Desktop...

  Not sure I would classify the SZ2000's as fast bass impact. I'm driving mine with Cayin C5 and while they have a lot of bass strength and weight, it's not exactly tight or fast. They are good at giving you the impression you are listening to a home speaker setup with a sub, but I think a lot...

Reviving a 6 year old thread, apologies. Hopefully a place or two has popped up in central Virginia I haven't been able to find since this thread was made. I've tried Best Buy but the selection there wasn't great, Guitar Center had maybe 7 headphones in boxes and not possible to demo, Audio...

Interesting. Yeah I didn't think you'd actually feel the bass waves all the way to your chest, I guess through headphone voodoo it might be able to trick your brain into thinking that's happening. Koolpep, that's what I suspected if one actually did trick your brain into thinking that, probably...

It's the type of impact from "sonic" bass you might hear from on explosion on screen using a good home theater setup. I've heard someone reference the "sense" before with their headphones(HD 25-1) but I've only ever experienced it on a very good quality speaker setup.   I have the JVC SZ2000's...

Many thanks for the reply! I'm definitely going for realism. Not muddy, boomy, or over the top though. I tend to watch a lot of action movies and play a lot of PC games. There was a certain bass impact I felt in my chest when watching a movie trailer on my uncles home theater system I've been...

Sorry to necro an extremely old thread but I was seconds away from grabbing a pair of HD650s when I read this. I started with AKG 701s then to the JVC SZ2000's because I'm searching for that sense of feeling the impact bass in your chest. I'm at this point willing to spend upwards of 500 on a...

Can anyone recommend some Action / Gaming EQ settings for the SZ2000's using the Cayin C5 amp? Or, just post yours and what you use it for? I'm on a PC using the Peace GUI for the Equalizer APO... basically I can control most everything EQ-wise. I'm trying to get the most out of these headphones...

Well I'm getting the bass, it's just a bit less refined than I had hoped. There aren't any cracking booms, more rumble than anything. It's not muddled... just not pronounced. They sound great, like a sub and much better than my AKG 701's. I'm just wanting to get more sonic boom like sounds from...

I got mine from the JVC Xtreme Bass m55x headphones off eBay for 30 shipped.

Can we assume there aren't any issues and still recommend an EQ setting? For what it's worth I've used both on my iPhone and MacBook Pro using the same EQ settings and it sounds identical. I don't see why I couldn't get the same help just working with my setup.

  Thanks for the replies. I changed my EQ settings back to what you were using and deleted what I was experimenting with for a bit over an hour. Yeah I did google some tutorials. Actually spent more time reading about it than anything. A lot of it seems subjective and based on your current...

Yeah I think that's what I'm going to do. I can still return this E11. I think I'll exchange it for a Cayin C5 or E12. Yep, I've changed to the M55x pads. Definitely helps.    I'll try what you suggested, many thanks man!   EDIT: Well tried it starting with your EQ settings, only seems to...

Just got my (Japan imported) SZ2000's a few days ago. I'm at about 35-40 hours of pink noise and logarithmic burn in from here: http://www.head-fi.org/t/466827/free-burn-in-files/60#post_12091886. Also just got the E11k (A3) Saturday. It seems to have a pretty good rumble for the <50hz range but...

Just got the Fiio A3 in the mail today too. From what I understand to really bring out the best in the SZ2000's you need to EQ it. I mainly use this for gaming and have been trying to break them in. Sounds a little less strong and clear than I had hoped. I have a feeling it's the EQ settings I'm...

Placing heavy emphasis on the 50-120Hz octave for mid-bass “punch” or “impact”. This is where we would feel the impact in our chests on an audiophiles home theater setup. Clarity, strength, and controlled. Whether this is somehow increasing speaker and driver response or modifying the pads. I...

Anyone else cringing at how loud this gets? I had to turn it about 25% below normal listening volume and I can still hear it from the other room with fans going.    EDIT: Couldn't take it anymore and turned it to half listening volume. Anyone here used the Logarithmic sine on their SZ2000's?
