Not everyone can afford more expensive headphones ABBA.  I have the 429s and I found them to be wonderful headphones. When I first put them on after using some hand-me-down DT770s I found them exceptionally crisp, but really what they are is neutral. Build quality is average, they feel like...

I just got a pair of Sennheiser 429s as a gift from a friend and I've found that when I plug them directly into my Presonus Central Station they have almost no highs. The only sound that comes through is the is the mids and lows. Plugging them into the passthrough on my 2.1 speakers that I then...

I am hoping you all can help me out.  I recently inherited a Presonus Central Station and a set of DT770 80 Pro cans from a friend.  They are pretty rad, but I am using the TOS Link on my Rampage III to provide the signal and it doesn't have any positioning solutions like DH or CMSS-3d...

  So it's a tossup between DBI pro 705, PC360, Fischer FA-011, Superlux, and the A700, or just getitng antoher set of DT-770s.   Suggestions?  I couldn't find the cost on sets like the A700 or the FA-011.  What is the difference in prices?

So I just had an unfortunate accident.  A friend just slipped and fell with my DT-770 80ohm set in his hands, and they flew against the wall and snapped the plastic housing that holds the metal frame in place for both cans.  I am not sure if the speakers are OK but I have o way to hold them...

I don't think I have the box anymore - I believe they are the DT770 80ohm.

The whole question in the title. I have an Asus MB with an onboard X-fi. Going from there with TOS to presonus central station and from there to my DT770s. I want to know if there are tried and true EQ volume settings for the DT770 that are a perfect starting point for music/movies/gaming. Would...

Sorry if this is a oft-repeated post, but I just got a Zune and I need some headphones for it. More specifically I want to get one pair for average daily usage on the go and at work and another set for working out with. I don't really like ear buds because I find they hurt my ear, and I would...

I just bought some BD DT770 cans for use on my PC. They are pretty awesome, but I want to make them amazing. I am running them from an X-fi Card to a Presonus Central station via TOSlink to my cans. The X-fi has a software based EQ, and I want to find the perfect EQ to get the most of them...

Well the cable is really kinked. How much would a recabling cost, and who should I send it to for some high-quality work?

So I recently bought a pair of Sony SA-5ks around August. The sound is phenominal, and up to this point they have worked great for both music and gaming. Today, however, I found a problem. The sound in the left can started to cut out. At first it was intermittent, but now it is gone completely...

Which of the x-fi cards has good gaming features and a coaxial S/PDIF?

So I am in the process of building a new rig, and with it a new audio setup. I have a set of Sony SA5000s, and a Presonus Central Station I got. My plan is going to be: Sound Card >> Optical >> Presonus CS >> SA5000s I am Graphic Artist in the gaming industry some Gaming is my primary...

So I decided to get the Proesonus Central Station and the SA5000. I will post my opinion soon, and thanks to all for their help/advice!

OK, I am going from an X-fi Fatal1ty. Deciding between the Presonus Central Station and the Gilmore Lite and then to between the K701, ES7, ATH-a900, or the SA5000. Which setup features most reasonably in my budget and sounds the best. Note I will go optic pipe off the sound card >> DAC/AMP...

It is twice the price, but how much would the extension board be separately?

Hrmm. I think I am going to get just a boom-mic and tape it to the side of the headphones. I really only need it for Ventrilo. Does an I/O extension board connect into the original sound-card? My only problem I see with getting a second sound-card for the mic is the problem of wanting to play...

I spend wayyy too much time on my computer doing everything from gaming, to 3d modeling, to video/audio editing. I think I can get some of my old parts sold and that should about cover the price of that setup. Thanks for everyones input! I really appreciate this, and I will definitely let...

That you cadobhuk that was really informative. I like the idea of using an external DAC, but, like I said before, I am looking on a budget. If I get the K701s go, what amp/dac combo can I get for best quality? I am not looking for completely awesome, because I cannot afford that yet, but I...

I like the idea of a good sound-stage coming from the K701. I have never bought an amp before, so maybe a link to a review on the E-MU 0404 would be nice. I had originally planned to get DT770, but that was almost a year ago, and I wanted to ask around again. As far as the K701s go, how much...

So I am currently building my new gaming rig with an X-FI gamer soundcard, and I want to buy a set of cans that offer great 3D positioning, and range for all the gaming goodness. If you have a set to suggest let me know, and if an AMP sends the cans for great to balls to the wall amazing please...

Tottally going to do what nugget suggested and I think it should work with the DT770/80s. But again with the question. What amp, and when should I get em? EDIT: What do I need to convert the Dt770/80 down to the plug that will fit my x-fi soundcard?
