Best desktop Amp/Dac combo for around the price of a Schiit Stack?
The Schiit Magni/Modi looks fairly good in this price range, is there anything better value? I'm in the UK so that could limit my choices, but don't be afraid to suggest anything as importing is always an option. I'll use it for music mainly, I do play games but I'm fairly casual so its no big...- David164v8

How much of a benefit would an external Amp/DAC offer over a Titanium HD?
Specifically this one http://epiphany-acoustics.co.uk/products-page/dacs/ehp-o2d-miniature-desktop-headphone-amplifier-with-usb-dac/ I'm roughly 50/50 on gaming and music. I could deal with positional audio being slightly less in games, if there was a significant increase in music. I'm sure...- David164v8

Normal for my Sennheiser 598's to do this?
They have a problem where if I twist the cable in the 598's a little, the sound gets all messed up. (Can't really describe it) Should I be worried? Thanks- David164v8

Essense ST/STX worth it? DG + Sennheiser 598 at the minute.
Okay, would it be worth it? I'll probably pick up the sound card second hand if I can find it. I use it around 50/50 for music and gaming. I guess I'm happy with my current setup, but I'm not overwhelmed in either games or music. Imaging in games is important to me, but the Essense uses Dolby...- David164v8

At the moment I have it set to 2 channels with dolby headphone off. Amp is set to exciter and it is set to stereo in Windows. . I usually pick the headphones option in games. Is there anything else I should be doing? Thanks- David164v8

Few questions about my new Sennheiser 598's and Xonar DG

Sennheiser 555 vs 598 for FPS gaming and music.
I sold my old headset, so I'm going to be needing a pair of new headphones. They will mostly be used for gaming (FPS, RPG etc...) so positioning is important. Although I would like my games to sound immersive as well. In terms of music, I mostly listen to - Alternative Rock - Indie Rock -...- David164v8
