ASUS Xonar Essence STX II
Why should I go with the STX? I want 7.1 capability with the add-on card and I can't seem to get that with the STX. Also, I had checked Amazon before but I only see it being sold by some place called "Cellular Shack" for over $400...- hypr

Can anyone tell me where this can be purchased in the US? I can't seem to find it anywhere, but people talk about it as though it's readily available....- hypr

Help with Sound Card: HT OMEGA eClaro
I installed the newest drivers from the website right when I installed it. I also made sure to disable the on-board sound in the bios. I had issues with sound coming through my speakers right when I first installed the card (electronic noise that was both random and associated with...- hypr

Help with Sound Card: HT OMEGA eClaro
I recently bought the HT OMEGA eClaro sound card. I mainly use it with my Logitech Z5500, Sony MDR-V6, and Grado SR-225. The majority of the use is through my speakers for videos, flac/lossless, and other music. This sound card is for a new system I built in December that I've been using the...- hypr

Equalizer app is horrible!
What does a hard reset do? I have tried powering off and on, but not what you described. Does it reset settings and things, because I don't want to do that. I have checked apps running in the background though, and nothing else was. Also, yes I do have all the updates.. Quote:- hypr

Equalizer app is horrible!
I just purchased the Equalizer app for my iphone 4s after reading some positive things here. Well I have to say I am very disappointed with this. It's not the user interface, I'm ok with that. The thing has crashed about 6 times already and I've only been using it for about 45 minutes or so. ...- hypr

static / crackle / pop with FiiO E11
Oh I forgot to mention, in my case the situation is also helped along by setting the EQ setting to 0. 1 still has some and 2 has the most interference. Though I definitely enjoy the bass boost and don't want to do without it.- hypr

static / crackle / pop with FiiO E11
I just started a thread about this before I saw this one. I'm having the same issue. It is clearly interference of some sort from the Iphone. The only way I have found to minimize it is to put them as far apart as the cable will allow (still happens a little though.) Such a shame...- hypr

Need some advice about the E11
I just got the Fiio E11 that I'm using with my Iphone 4S and the L9 line out. I am using these with my Shure E4c. Well there are two issues: 1) there is a very small hiss when I turn on the E11. It is constant and does not increase when I increase the volume. 2) There is some...- hypr

Predator vs. SR-71
Are there any ideas on when the SR-71 will be available? Also, does anyone have any pictures comparing the SR-71's size with that of the Predator's? I'd be interested in seeing a direct comparison between the two.- hypr

Predator vs. SR-71
How would you compare these two amps from RSA? All burn-in effects taken into account, which would you say is the better amp (subjective i know)? I might be getting an amp in a couple of months and I'm mainly looking at these two.- hypr

Grado foams falling apart
I think I'm going to pick up a pair of each the bowls and the flats to compare them. I remember reading about the flats a few years ago but I never picked them up because my original foams were okay. I guess now really is a perfect opportunity to experiment.- hypr
