Hey there! I'm just gonna hi-jack this thread >_>   It's been a few months now, and how are you guys holding up with the Etymotics HF5/E17 combo? I just happen to have received an E17 myself, and I'm seriously considering buying the HF5 as I only use IEMs for travelling and isolation is...

Quote: But do you use the output on the E9 or the E17 when running it like that? I can get it to work like that as well, when I use the output on the E17, but I can only assume that's because the E9 isn't used at all - except for charging the E17 that is.   I've now also tried to go...

  What kind of source (and how is it connected) do you use with it?    I still can't get mine to work with optical out from my PC. Sure, it defaults to USB, when I dock the E17 into the E9, but I can still turn it back to optical. Could it really be that you're only able to use...

Guys! I've got a bit of a problem.    I just received my E17 a few days ago, and when I got my new soundcard yesterday (Creative Titanium HD) I was finally set for audio awesomeness - or so I thought.    I'm using the optical output on the soundcard:   .. and into the E17:  ...

I am sorry to hear about all in here who have had bad experiences with mp4nation.    This is my first time doing business with them, so I must admit that I was a little anxious after reading about how badly a lot of people have been treated by them. I'm also one of the people who, when...

So, I've got an E9 for several months now, and have been loving it so far.    I should be receiving my E17 in the near future, and I plan to pair it up with the E9 and my Beyerdynamic DT880, but I have a few questions regarding connectivity.   The only digital input in the E9 is USB...

Quote: I'm using the lineout. It hasn't got a headphone out unfortunately.

Quote: I see. Well, I already have a soundcard (not an expensive one like the Auzentech X-Fi Forte) so what's your opinion on adding an external DAC (and recommendation would be awesome as well in the case it's worth it)?   I was lucky enough to find my headphones at a store today...

    Quote: Lolwut, are you telling me there's no marginal difference, between the PC360 and the DT880? How come people are swearing to certain high-end brands like Beyerdynamics, Audio-Technica etc. if there's not real difference? Is my setup all wrong, or is it just...

Quote: Ok, so I've now finally got a pair of Beyerdynamics DT880 600ohm and a Fiio E9, but when I plug it into my PC (out from my soundcard to the line in on the Fiio) and plug the DT880 into the 6.35mm jack something a little odd happens. When comparing the sound to my Sennheiser PC360...

Ok, so I've been reading through tons of articles/reviews on the Beyerdynamic DT770/880/990 phones (including the amazing comparison guide on this site), but I have a few questions still. First, I assume it's a must to get an amp for any of these, and I've been looking at the Fiio E9 which would...
