Hello everyone. I currently use Sennheiser HD 598 Cs headphones that I got in 2016 for $80, one of the best deals I've ever had and I wish I'd bought 3 of those. I'm looking around on the market for a replacement and I'm not finding anything that really interests me. I drive these these for 10+...

Hey guys,   I'm trying to pick some headphones for someone I know, he wants something lightweight, hopefully with a fairly sturdy or detachable cable (he snags it everywhere because he uses his headphones while working). Budget is up to $120 but cheaper is fine and preferable actually, and I'm...

Hello guys, I have been using my HD650's for almost 2 years now, many many hours per day. They're hooked to a Schiit Asgard, the DAC is a Schiit Bifrost and the source is my PC (through USB). Somehow I can't reproduce the problem just now but I know for sure that it'll happen tomorrow. When I...

I'm currently using HD650's with a Schiit stack (Asgard & Bifrost). I LOVE my HD650s but they have now racked a ridiculous number of hours. I've had them for about 20 months and I bet they've got about 6000 hours in them or something ridiculous, I don't know how long they're supposed to last but...

Hello, I have a serious problem with a FiiO E11 that I've bought used from a forum user here and I don't know how to even begin to address this.   I received this FiiO E11 a few days ago and it seemed fine, but once in a while it did these buzzing and beeping sounds, some of which are...

Hello, I'm posting here because I just bought a used Fiio E11 from someone here and I have a problem with the cable. That's very basic, I know, but maybe some people here are familiar with the specific issue. It's probably a simple fix (buy a stiffer cable or something) but let me be thorough...

Hey guys, I would really appreciate some help to diagnose these problems. Here's my setup. Computer (Auzentech Bravura sound card) -> Fiio D3 -> Schiit Asgard -> HD650.   1- There is a distinct "hiss" coming from the headphones when the amp's volume knob is above half, but this only...

Hello. I just ordered a Schiit Asgard to drive my HD650's but I'm still a little confused about all that stuff. I currently have an Auzentech Bravura that I could use as a DAC and I also have a FiiO D3 which I hear is pretty good despite its low price. Both my motherboard and my sound card have...

Has anybody from Canada ordered a Schiit Asgard? I contacted them and they're not willing to lower the declared value, and I'm hesitating between that one and the Little Dot MKIII. I'm wondering if Canadian customs would slap me with huge fees. Thanks.

Sorry to post this here, I figure you guys may know what's up. I found this on ebay and it seems to be going for a decent price, but the dealer is not authorized.  ...

So I'm on the market for an amp to go with my newly acquired HD650s. I'm on a somewhat tight budget and I'd like to try a tube amp. However, I've been reconsidering the Little Dot MKiii. I was well aware that tubes have a finite life, but since I listen to music *a lot* and would use the amp...

Hello guys. So, I know very little in terms of audio equipment. I wish there was some kind of advice place so I could ask specific questions without making a thread. Anyway, getting those HD650's I never thought I would develop or renew my passion for music to this extent. Now I'm looking for a...

Sorry for this thread, might be a bit simple but I can't really find a straight answer. I'm looking for a digital coaxial cable - not sure if that's the right name for the item. I found this: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812120022CVF   I'm about to order something...

I don't know much about sound hardware so I figured I'd ask here. I'm looking for a new source for these Sennheiser HD650's. I'm currently using an Auzentech Bravura which produces decent sound as far as I can tell, but it also has some kind of glitch so I'm thinking about replacing it.   As...

Hello guys. So over the last few days I decided to get a pair of new IPS monitors from Dell... I'm already low on funds, and yet today I picked up some HD650's on a whim from Ebay. Now I feel guilty as hell because I've already spent too much, and I really need to tune it down. (But uni's making...

So, my plans of getting a good sound setup is starting to take form. Seems like I'm going for the HD650's (if I can find them at a reasonable price in Canada). Now I need to select an amp and from reading around, seems like the FiiO E9 is a good idea to stay within my budget. However, I was...

Hello guys, so this is my first post! I recently had the chance of trying on some Sennheiser HD650 and I absolutely LOVED it. I currently own a Steelseries Siberia v2 headset and an Auzentech Bravura and I decided that getting a new sound setup would be my next big purchase, so that's quite the...
