Hi all, new guy here.
I'm wondering if there are any PK3 owners that could confirm something for me. I've been using mine for a couple of months, and am disappointed with their ability to cope with any amount of bass. They rattle/buzz at certain frequencies, even at very modest levels with flat eq, although not as badly now as they used to.
I came across this review today - http://headphonedeals.org/q-review/yuin-pk3-quick-review/ - which includes an audio example ( http://www.headphonedeals.org/Audiotest/909-Kick.wav ) which apparently the PK3s should be able to handle. On my PC speakers (Creative Gigaworks S700) the kick sounds smooth, but on my PK3s it's weak and has a buzzy distortion to it. My experience concerning the bass is also contrary to that described throughout the review.
I have a replacement pair on the way, but if this is considered a normal artifact inherent with these 'phones then I might have to sell the new ones when they arrive and find something else that's more capable.
Thanks for any help!
