    Schiit Gungnir DAC

    I've recently acquired the Mjolnir/Gungnir combo and I am enjoying it immensely. It still hasn't fully burned in but is sounding better everyday. I also want to say to those who are experiencing the crackling, popping and brief drop outs in sound that this should disappear after a few dozen...

    Reply to review by 'soulfan84' on item 'Audeze LCD2 Planar Magnetic Headphones'

    I have it plugged into my computer's headphone jack. My computer has HD audio with the latest Realtek HD audio driver. All enhancements are turned off. It won't sound as loud as say, a Sennheiser HD555/598, but the sound especially after burn in will be nice.

    Review by 'SoulFan84' on item 'Audeze LCD2 Planar Magnetic Headphones'

    I originally owned the Sennheiser HD800's and I thought they were great!(After they were burned in; out of the box they were the worst thing I'd ever heard) But I always felt like it was missing something. I LOVED the soundstage, clarity, speed and detail. But vocals didn't sound right to me. I...

    Burson Conductor - DAC/amp successor to the HA-160D

    To further elaborate on the heavy noise issue that sometimes would happen when listening to songs; for me this only happens in 24/192 bit rate. Anything less and I get no issues at all. It would sometimes happen when I would be watching a video on Youtube and then play music from my music...

    Burson Conductor - DAC/amp successor to the HA-160D

    I received my Conductor unit tonight and I'm using it with my almost fully burned in HD800's. So far I am quite happy with it. Just to let future owners know, when I first turned the unit on it played a very jagged like noise. I stopped the song and replayed and it did the same thing. However...

    Onboard sound vs Sound Card

    I bought a Xonar Essence STX to use with my HD555's to hold me over until I buy a true audiophile setup. I felt I didn't hear enough of a difference over my HD onboard audio with the latest driver to justify the price at the time. I recently bought a pair of Sennheiser HD598's a few days ago...

    I'm Trying To Decide On Best Setup For My Budget(4k) And Taste. Which would you buy?

    "HE6 in terms of air, dynamics, openness and is on par with detail extraction with HD800, on par with timbre with LCD3;"     Very good to know!

    I'm Trying To Decide On Best Setup For My Budget(4k) And Taste. Which would you buy?

    Thanks for the quick response! I've heard many people talk about having some listening fatigue when using the HD800's with some recordings. That made my enthusiasm drop a little. I'm not sure how my CD's will sound with the HD800s.

    I'm Trying To Decide On Best Setup For My Budget(4k) And Taste. Which would you buy?

    Hello everyone. This is my first post here. I really enjoy reading and learning from the many knowledgable and enthusiastic people and posts. I'm trying to decide what setup to buy.   My musical taste (as you can probably tell from my name) is mainly Soul/R&B like Sam Cooke(favorite singer)...
