I'm wondering about the acceleration scrolling wheel feature too. I only have ~400 songs. I know you can scroll down to through the list a-z, and up for z-a, so you only need to scroll a maximum distance of half the list's size to find your song, but it already takes a while to scroll through a...

 Done all three. Sweet move Hifiman!

I think the BE is actually better for your music taste. As Matt said, it only adds a little sub bass, and everything else is the same. Just give your BE some burn in (~100 hours) if time permits and see if you like its bass. Some people find the MK2 doesn't have enough bass so they wish to get...

I used to listen to the BE through my Galaxy Nexus and crappy laptop output, 320/128 kbps MP3s, and it's still very good to be honest. I'd still listen that way if I didn't need a more powerful source for my Beyer headphone. Before the 07be I had Vsonic GR02be and VSD1. If you're coming from...

Go to Sound > Playback devices. Double click on Fiio driver > Advance Tab, then choose 24/192

This'll sound like a dumb question but I'm just wondering if you plug it in the right spot. It happened to me when I mistook the headphone output with the coaxial output

I listen to Rock/Metal. I find the DT880 brighter than other hp I try, but not unbearable. I tried Vmoda-100, HD600, HD650 and end up liking the DT880 & HD600. They're very enjoyable for these genres. very satisfy that I bought this hp. Except for this 1 pop song though, I had to take the hp...

I love how they sell for an additional $1k above the original price and still have +$3 for shipping 

But you get a nice vacation. I saw someone on the AK240 thread wrote the same when its release price is $2500 in US and $3500 in EU 

They also announce: "For those who are curious, the GR07 Classic sound signature is closer to the first version of the GR07" So that clears up the question many people have: GR07 Classic is closer to GR07 MK1 than MK2

My bad, my mind was thinking X5 but wrote X3 

That looks awesome. Let us know your impression about the X3 & VSD1 combo

Check out the JDS Labs ODAC / C5D, Fiio E07k / E17 / E18. And many people here like stacking Schiit Modi + Vali. Personally I'm using the Fiio X3, its main purpose is a music player, but still have a DAC+AMP option to plug in to your laptop. I have the Lenovo T430. My 880/250 can go really loud...

Better treble and bass extension. A little less midbass which leads to clearer sound and better instrument separation. Wider soundstage. In my opinion the VSD1 doesn't sound like the GR07be at all. Good news that I just saw LMUE announces they have some GR07be back on sale. AFAIK, They offer...

I think it's a normal condition since the X3 outputs higher voltage with high gain.

Damn that's some sexy cable. Did you DIY it?

I listen to my DT880/250 at 1/3 volume level on high, and 1/2 volume level on low gain. So the X3 has plenty of power to drive those. 

Can you describe how you cleaned it? Did you open up the nozzle to reach the drivers? I want to open up the GR07 to clean but I'm afraid I may break the driver

That's good to hear. I don't want to jump to >$400 price range for a DAP. So X5 and X3k are great options for me. The firmware is still buggy, but I want to continue using Fiio's for the slimmer design + sound quality + pricewise + great customer interaction

Sometimes I look at the X3 to check the time too, it's an old habit since I used to play music through my phone. I doubt this function would be implemented though. I believe the X3 needs a clock battery to keep track of the time while staying off (like batteries that laptop/pc have). I don't...

Any updates on this? 

I think the volume also depends on file types. I play 16/44.1 flac at low gain 17-22, while 24/192 at low gain 21-27. But yeah, 30-35 would be really loud for me. I only reach that level with my DT880 250 Ohms: 27-33 low gain for 16/44 flac, and 32-40 for 24/192

Actually I like your simple tweak. I've always wonder why Fiio doesn't provide a solid black background. Nice case btw 

Can you post some pics of your theme? Thanks
