    HE 400 : O2+ODAC or Xonar D1 + Schiit Asgard or Xonar D1 + Matrix M Stage

    Title says it all. Which would be the best suited for the HE 400s. How cold and dry is the O2+ODAC for the HE 400 compared to the others. I am currently leaning more towards the Objective stuff.

    cheap amp+DAC setup for the HE 400

    So, I am looking to get the HE 400 and dont know what amp and DAC to get. Right now I have no amp or DAC. Not looking to spend a lot of money on them though. 200$ is ideal. 300$ is the absolute max. I was initially gonna get a HD 650 with an O2+ODAC combo but reading more about it has convinced...

    Anyone have much experience with the XBA 1s? Coming from the S4s, how will they compare?

    Coming from the image S4s how will the XBA 1s compare? I dont use my IEMs for much music mostly movies and stuff, and some occasional music(when I'm on the go, use my headphones for music mostly). Either way how are the XBA 1s? And how do they compare to the Monster Turbines?   Also anyone...

    Looking for nice detailed headphones to complement the bass heavy HFI 580

    I am thinking of grabbing another pair of headphones. I like my HFI 580s but i find them lacking in detail when in comes to the Mids and the Highs. I am looking for another set and detail is the most important thing. Looking to spend 150$ ideally, 200$ max. Would also like the treble to be not...

    Decent headphones for gaming + music(AD700 or Samson SR 850)

    Looking for a new and cheap pair of headphones that will be good for gaming and listening to bass light music(mostly rock). I already own a pair of HFI 580s + Fiio E11 that fulfill my basshead needs but in some kinds of music(rock) they can be a bit too bass heavy and they suck for gaming. So i...

    Bass Lover here, DT770 vs D1100 vs HFi 580 vs Pro700MK2 vs Crossfade LP1/LP2

Which one of these has the best bass I mean bass like...

    Looking for a new pair of headphones

    Ok i am really confused right now and have absolutely no idea what to buy. My budget is <200$. I listen mostly to hip hop, and a bit of rock. I would like headphones with good bass and good sound quality. I think the Klipsch Image Ones would be perfect for me but they are not over ear and i...

    How much of an improvement are the Klipsch Image X10s over the Image S4s

    I like IEMs with decent bass. I used have Creative EP 630s and upgraded to the Image S4s. I loved the S4s but i recently checked out my friends Beats by Dre Tours and decided i should upgrade(the beats sounded way superior to my S4s). But i hear Beats are not that good in their price range and...
