    Sennheiser HD800 S Impressions Thread (read first post for summary)

    Does anyone know where I can pick up a replacement headband pad? I can't find any in stock in the United States.

    Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I'm wondering if some of you could tell me how you have your device set up for a balanced headphone situation to an amp. What settings etc. My device got all messed up and I had to reset it. I'm not sure what's going on as far as what screens to use and what...

    Hey everyone,   A recent issue has popped up with my set up and I was wondering I could post to get some advice. It could be the amplifier, it could be the DAC, I'm not exactly sure. I just didn't know which form was appropriate. If someone could let me know, it would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Violectric HPA V281 - Vorsprung durch Balanced (September 2023 Update: Limited Reissue Edition up for preorder!)

I didn't listen to the amp single ended, but compared to my DAC, it seems huge. Has anyone else noticed this? It plays with my mind when I...

    Violectric HPA V281 - Vorsprung durch Balanced (September 2023 Update: Limited Reissue Edition up for preorder!)

    Hello everyone,   New owner here with a V281 on the way! I have one question. I have a balanced DAC and would prefer to hook the amplifier up as balanced. However, I only have a single ended cable at the moment. Do the non-balanced outputs work when the V281 is set up as balanced?

    I just purchased a balanced amp to pair with the Hilo. Pardon my lack of knowledge, could someone let me know what kind of cables I need to purchase and inputs I need to switch to make this happen? Feel free to PM me so I don't bloat the thread.

    I don't know if this is the right place to ask, but what do you guys think is a significant upgrade to the built-in headphone amplifier? I have a pair of Sennheiser HD800s.

    Does anyone know the power output on the headphone amplifier? I'm really curious to find out.

    I wish there was a thread in the Dedicated Source forum. This piece of gear definitely doesn't get the attention it deserves and I would've totally missed out on it if it hadn't been for another member suggestion.
