I seriously don't know... it's weird. And the sound quality is damm good when the attenuator is on. As good as I had expected from these cans. But without it, it amplify the sound waaayyyy too much. At the lowest volume with the super.fi, it's like having my ER6i at 1/3 of the volume. At...

Like I said, I previously used more sensitive IEM (ER6i) and never had such problems. The white noise is very loud. You don't need to be and head-fier or audiophile to be bother by it. I guess any cheap ibud user would be annoyed. Quote: Originally Posted by raif I had a problem...

I previously used ety ER6i which have lower impedance and never had such problem. It bothers me when I listen to music. It's really loud and so is the sound. At the lowest volume setting, it is as loud as with my etys at the volume set up to 1/3 of the max.

I received some super.fi 5 pro in the mail today. I currently have a really big problem with them. When they are plugged in, there is a totally unacceptable level of white noise. This happen with both my iPod and my computer. Did anyone ever experienced this problem? It must be a defect...

I thought that it would be intersting to build a list of DAC available. Only DAC, no DAC/AMP combo. List the name, make, price and possibly a picture: Make: Headroom Model: Micro DAC Price: $299.00

Thanks you for trying guys. I think I found it: It's a version conducted by Riccardo Muti with the Philadelphia Orchestra.

Let's join the fun:

I've owned an iPod since it came out in 2001. I think it's my best purchase to life. I must say that I've been playing with Apple products for a long time now. The iPod is one of their best product. Just think about this: Back into 2001, Apple was seen by most of the people as a company...

Hi Guys I bought a pair of HD 595 and I thought it would be good to use an amp (the source is an iMac G5). I know that the best solution would be for me to get a dedicated DAC/AMP, but here is I can do without any purchases. 1) Use directly the output of the iMac 2) Connect my...

Anyone know which version is this? Which conductor/orchestra/year/album? http://soury.ca/Ode_to_Joy.mp3 If anyone knows which version it is, please let me know. I would also be interested in something similar (same kind of choral). Thank you again

Thank you guys for all your replies, but I get just more confused about what to choose lol. Nonetheless, I realized that when I wrote about this symphony, I had something in mind. I uploaded a sample of what I want and I hope that someone will be able to tell me which version it is...

I know this has been covered, but I've not been able to find any definitive answer to my question. There have been a lot of discussion about the complete symphonies box set, but not that much on the 9th symphony itself. So, which record is the best? Best performance? best sound quality...
