I'm pretty sure you have a big head...  Bigger is better though, right?

It's not the size of the head that counts, it's what you do with it.

Sorry had to lol.

Always trying to stick my head into different headphones. Am I doing it right? 

My Mad Dogs have arrived safe and healthy!

OK, I said I wanted a "step up" from the Audio-Technica ATH-A900 gamer headphones. Instead of an expected 1/4" to 3.5 mm adapter, I get an entirely separate cable? Nice. Welcome to the neighborhood.

The modi/magni combo is expected tomorrow, so I'm stuck listening to my Sound Blaster card direct output. My first impressions are that the MDs are much too limited by the Sound Blaster. I'll consider it a break-in period until I get the rest of the equipment up and running. I'll also have to switch to USB audio. (I'll hop into the computer audio forum for that part, I run Win 7 and Linux.)

The sound isolation is excellent. It's audibly better than my gamer headphones, which I thought were pretty good to begin with.

I ordered my Mad Dogs on the 30th of last month. Do they usually take this long to get here? I'm tired of listening to crappy headphones. MrSpeakers save me! 

Ask Dan for a tracking number if you don't have one already.

Yes, just PM with the name used on the order or the order number/date if you don't get it today (I can't tell who this is by the screen name).  All orders have been shipped.  An order placed on the 30th probably went out Wed or Thursday, so I'd expect you will get it today or tomorrow.  

Ok I just got them a few hours ago. I rushed to my computer and hooked it up to my amp. I put them on and listened for a few hours. Now, I have this grin stuck on my face. It will not go away. My roommate thinks it's some kind of sickness. Is this a side-effect or is this normal?

Oh, it's completely normal. What are you amping with? 

my brother's E9 + E17. I have an E10 and a CmoyBB 2.03 with an AD8066, but haven't tested it on my setup though.

All I have to say is that the bass quantity is perfect. It's not exaggerated, and it's not weak. The quality of the bass is superb. Sorry, I'm not too analytical on music. I'm playing some EDM 320kbps

EDIT: I'll keep you guys posted. I'll tell you guys how it sounds on my setup after I hook it up, though as I said I'm not too analytical on music. Apologies again.

The e09k did pretty well for me. I'm now on the lyr and I have to say that the MD scales well with better amps. 

Glad that you seem to be enjoying it so much. It's really a superb headphone. Very well balanced with a touch of warmth with the dog pads. 

Newbie question: So what exactly does a good amp do to these mad puppies?
