Just got a 2012 macbook pro and was wondering if the e17 made a difference in SQ or if the MBP was better than the e17 or vice versa.  I found one thread on it, but at the time no one really answered the question so im hoping to get a definite answer.

I just got my e17 and noticed every time i turn it on it resets itself to 48k, 16bit and i have to manually set it back to 98k 24 bit on my computer.  It happens when plugged in with usb, through mini to mini to my phone, and when i just turn it on without anything connected.   I also have...

I have a e17 and  want to use the coax or SPDIF with my computer, but I'm not sure whether or not I have one.  Looking around seems like I just have 2 regular 3.5mm headphone jacks and a microphone in jack.  Is it possible to use coax or SPDIF through the 3.5mm's?    This is my computer:  ...

I've been getting cell inferference on my e10 but not on my uDAC-2 and was wondering if I should return the 2 and get the e17, but I want to make sure the case is thick enough to not pick up interference.  I'm only using it for the DAC since i'm only using it with my laptop, never portable, and...

Long story short, Got a e10, had problems.  Got a Udac-2 to compare if the problem was my DAC or computer.  Turns out it was the DAC that was the problem.  Now that I've spent 110 on the Udac-2 I decided to compare it to the e17 that's only 20 more.       So..in terms of DAC which is...

Had an e7, battery did not charge.  returned e10.  Feedback/buzzing noises issues.    I'm going to be returning the e10 back to amazon, when my new DAC comes in but i have yet to decide that, so any recommendations around the 100 dollar area? I just need something to plug into my laptop and...

i just got my fiio e7 in the mail today and plugged it in.  it works the oled comes on, the Fiio sign on the bottom is flashing indicating charging, and sound is playing through it from my computer.  but when i turn it on it goes from 1 line on the battery with the screen saying lock, then lock...

I need a cheap audio player that can be used with an easily found LOD to an e7.  I was considering the apple 5.5 gen, but i'm using this for school and with all the crap i carry I don't really want to add a big ipod with e7 to it.  I was thinking nano? but then i read certain earlier nano's do...

I've been reading that some players have better or worse output than others.  for example one would say "many of the ipods are designed to run efficiently and do not sound as well as a zune."  To me this seems like i can solve this problem with an amp and just giving it more power through a LOD...

I've been searching and searching and have not found my specific situation since all the others have found have to do with idevices.  I have ath-m50's and was wondering if they would benefit from an amp.  Im looking between the fiio e7 and e11.  I know the e7 has a DAC but is it needed for my...

I need something to listen to music in the library or in my room when doing homework,  I was thinking about getting some IE's but even the super comfy IE's bug me after a while.   ill keep it short and sweet: -full rich sound -balanced -great sound stage -durable -closed cans...

I'm sure this topic is beat to death, but I'm very particular with my music.  I want something well balanced more leaning on the bass side.  Right now i have some klipsch s4's in my ear but i've been reading around they aren't the best for the price range and they seem a bit flimsy to me.  I...

I just got the htf600's in the mail from amazon today for 30 bucks :) i was wondering if anyone here has experience EQing them if so, what are your recommended settings? if it helps i'd like a punchy bass, with good highs and mids..so the xb500's but with better mids and highs.     I read...

after long hours and days of relentless search that would fit my needs, i decided to go with the XB line, and since many say the 500's are the best of the bunch, i drove 20 miles to the nearest best buy that had them.  tried them out, and even with some EQing recommended from other users...

anyone out there have a free simple computer equalizer software that they could reccomend? Ive been searching forums and google and all the stuff i try is either too confusing it doesnt work well or at all.  all i need is a stright up EQ software that will apply that eq settings to all my audio...

What do you guys think of those four headphones? In no way do i need to monitor or edit music, i just want a set that i will enjoy with music, games, and movies.  i listen to a wide range from bassy dub step to high classical music. i'd like to think im pretty neutral when it comes to prefering...

Im looking for something around the 100 dollar mark, i want something to replace my current sennheiser hd 238 and cx400ii ..something i could use to watch movies, play games, listen to music, at home and in loud public places, so i need some kind of ambient noise dampening as well as closed...

I've been wanting to upgrade for a while now, and I have decided to buy myself a christmas present!  Ive been looking for a while now, and have come to the two headphones (sennheiser hd280 pro, and audio tech. atc-m30) and cant really decide between the two.  i have no real need for portability...
