    Stax L700 MK2 or Sennheiser HD800s?

    Hi guys, I'm having a hard time choosing between HD800s and L700 MK2. I have auditioned both headphone/earspeaker, and both were excellent to my ears. I love the large soundstage from HD800s while, detailed and fast sounds from L700 MK2 are hard to ignore as well. Comfort wise, there are no...

    Reliable mini XLR female to 6.35mm (1/4 Inch) cable?

    Is there any reliable XLR female to 6.35mm cable for purchase?   I'm not sure if it's just a bad luck or lack of build quality but I've tried at least 7 different cables for my AKG Annie and K712 Pro, which all of them "died on me" after few days of usage. Most of them were random cables that...

    Uneven hearing... Is this critical?

    Basically it seems like the sound is slightly off-center as I can hear more from my right ear than my left one. When I tried hearing them separately, my right ear is a bit louder and more sensitive when compared to my left ear.   At first, I thought it has to do with my headphones and setups...

    Hearing audio pop via USB DAC after replacing my mobo

    There is a problem with my mobo (Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD3) and as a result I needed to RMA it which I'll be using an older mobo (Gigabyte GA-H55M-UD2H) as temporary replacement for 1~3 weeks.
