    Review by 'dannydamsky' on item 'Audio-Technica ATH-M50x'

        These headphones are just brilliant for their price. I've heard a few other pairs at it's price range and I assure you there's nothing quite like it.   I've heard people say that these have bloated bass, and I have to disagree. The bass shines in songs where it's emphasized, songs which...

    Currently using a Xonar DGX, should I upgrade?

    Well at the moment I'm connecting my phones to the DGX, so the cable goes to the back of the PC, so the length of the stock cable is something I need to have at the moment. I'll see if I'll mind it when/if I get a Fulla or an E10K

    Currently using a Xonar DGX, should I upgrade?

      Well I don't know if it's related but the reason I went for a Xonar in the first place is because my Realtek on-board card started making funny noises. But PC noise aside, how big will the difference be? So if my PC is not noisy, will the difference be noticeable?

      Using Foobar2000 with ASUS' ASIO drivers, all my library is strictly FLACs.

    I did disable the motherboard's on-board audio. How big of a difference will an upgrade like that make? Is it worth it for someone on a tight budget?

    Why would I need an aftermarket cable?

    So do you think a Fulla would make a noticable difference for me? I am aware that there's interference with my DGX, but I don't hear any noise, it sounds clean. I'm just wondering whether something like a Fulla or an E10K would make a noticable difference.

    How is the Fulla and E10K durability-wise? If I'm gonna buy either one I want it to last me at least 2 years, since I got the HD598 is uses a 1/4 inch jack which I use with the 1/8 inch adapter, so I don't want the headphone jack to suddenly break.

    Actually the U7 is more like a DX than a DGX, it uses a better DAC than the DGX, although I'm not sure by how much, it uses a Cirrus CS4398/CS4362 DAC and a Cirrus CS5361 ADC, don't know anything about it's amp though. I'm not sure about the Fulla, first of all where I live Chinese products are...

    The E10K is supposed to be much improved over the E10, the DG and DGX are exactly the same. The E10 uses a Wolfson DAC while the E10K uses a Texas Instruments PCM5102 they also changed the opamp there, although I'm not sure what that means exactly. The DGX uses a Cirrus Logic CS4245/CS4361 DAC...

    Currently using a Xonar DGX, should I upgrade?

    Yeah I forgot to mention I never use gaming features I think it's wrong to do so. I run the Low-DPC drivers from Uni-Xonar with everything checked off so...Will the DAC/Amp in the E10K be better than the DAC/Amp in my Xonar DGX?

    Currently using a Xonar DGX, should I upgrade?

    I currently own a pair of Sennheiser HD 598's which I connect to the Xonar DGX (Which is a PCI-E variant of the Xonar DG for anybody who doesn't know). I'm wondering if there would be a noticeable difference if I'd upgrade to an external DAC/Amp combo like a FiiO E10K? Suggestions are welcome...

    Sennheiser HD 598 vs Philips Fidelio X1

    I have tried them and it seems like the official drivers work much better than the Uni Xonar drivers.

    Sennheiser HD 598 vs Philips Fidelio X1

      Yes I have, I've disabled my motherboards on-board audio. And the DGX is only temporary, I bought it about 2 months ago because I couldn't stand the on board audio. I will eventually move away from PCI-E altogether and I will probably go for the FiiO E10K, it's DAC is better than the Xonar...
