For DAC/HP toggle, it goes(H)eadphones, (P)re-amp (variable), and (d) which sounds like line level out from DAC. Does removing that jumper remove the (d) from my DAC/HP toggle?

Black Schiit is are silver ones that have some small superficial defect, so they cover it in PVD and sell it.

Is there a way to deactivate the Pure DAC mode? Going from Preamp to Headphone is painful.

I'm assuming low impedance and low sensitivity. The Sony amp they had the NEXT at CanJam connected to made them sound bass-less and emphasized the treble... so I'm assuming a damping mismatch. It did sound tonally much better with my Galaxy S4, but really quiet.   The Sony amp also broke the...

So I just got a NFB-28 from 2014 or 2015 with the VIA USB32 chip... it randomly goes quiet. It will go back to the previous level if I move the volume knob up and then down one click.

More the unbalanced Modi.

The main reason I'd get the Jotunheim would be to preamp my studio monitors. Is the noise floor between the Modi multibit and Jotunheim low enough to prevent the buzz. I know using balanced outputs from audio interfaces will prevent it.

No. I am not putting the only Koss drivers in... I am put essentially the entire Koss body without the pads or grills. So I think the Grado drivers would be too big for Koss body.

No one knows how the new ones will be... also "Hello from reddit."

He was using TRRS connecters, cords with microphones.

The Nelson Pass electrostatic speakers gave him ozone poisoning.... but he says they sounded awesome.   It could have been the oxygen depletion causing auditory hallucinations though.

Paper under felt sounds like ass.

BMF, which mod did you send to Tyll for measurements?

Check on ebay. They are a bunch of people selling 2134 based cMoy for 25... with 5 dollars shipping.

What kind of music do you listen to, hrklg01? What did the other designers listen to when they were designing the K1000?

Put an ad on Craigslist in your town. It like 1 Hr of work and 10 dollars of components.

Quote:     That person makes pads for the HD681/668b... The people at Rock-Grotto don't really like that person's work. They say the HD681 pads were thinner than the stock pads.

The DT770 pads would be damaged on slightly larger HD681, but they probably fit the HD660 just fine. I'm assuming the DT990 pads aren't much different.   DT770 pads have a locking ledge that holds it on. The 681 stock pads are basically held on through elasticity.

With rock, pretty much any headphone works. It's mostly in the high bass to low treble, with a little cymbal in the extreme highs and a some bass drum in the bass. If you can do detailed mids, you are fine. Most rock doesn't screw around with soundstage too much either.   The DT990 is the...

HD660? http://www.headphiles.org/index.php?topic=3771.0

Metal likes deep bass and loud highs, so HD668, HD681, and the HD660 would all work pretty well.
