I edited my post I just tried Fedora and the hissing was still there. I tested the headphones on my sisters laptop and the hissing is gone. Should I try rewiring my case? Nothing really changed on my pc :\ My mobo has built in audio but if a DAC/amp will fix this then I will buy one. This...

I have a pair of MDR-V6 and they used to not hiss when I'd listen to music in foobar or watch movies in MPC-HC. I don't know what happened but now suddenly, and only on my pc, my headphones hiss. If I move the plug to the rear jack, the hiss is still there. I don't know what happened or what...

I have a pair of Sony MDR-V6 and never really understood the difference between the Digital Output (Optical), Digital Output, and Speaker outputs. I also am not sure what format I should be using. 24bit at 192khz? Or should I be using 24bit at 48khz? What mode should I be using? Digital...

I currently have a pair of Sony MDR-V6 and use the integrated audio on my motherboard. (ASUS P67 Sabertooth - Absolute Pitch 192kHz/ 24-bit True BD Lossless Sound) Would it be wise to invest in an amp for my cans? I was reading about portable amps being not so good as desktop amps/full size...

New Members looking for headphones start here in the ++RECOMMENDATIONS THREAD++     It's okay to miss this at the top of the forum but did you even read the welcome PM you received?

Starship Troopers - 8/10 The book was so much better. If you have the time really read the book!   Dragon Wasps - 5/10 This movie was lame. I was bored and the CGI really sucked. I can't expect too much of a SyFy special but it really sucks compared to movies in theaters.

I'm looking for a good pair of headphones to listen to EDM & play games. My budget is about $200. I mainly listen to music on my desktop. The music source is majority lossless, but a good portion is also 320 & V0. The would like over the ear headphones/(cans?). In this purchase I can't purchase...

I'm really impressed but the budget of 600-800 for one of these is really out of my range. I'll have to deal with my MDR-V6s without an amp for a while!

I heard it won't be on PC which is shocking since GTA IV was so popular for PC. I really hope they are just saying that because they can't get it into Steam. I would still buy the game even without Steam. Looking at the screenshots made me so excited and hearing about the large map made me even...

osu! is my favorite rhythm game by far. It's the first rhythm game I actually always want to go back to. I've played several rhythm games such as beatmania, FFR, even DDR back in arcade days. I still play osu! and started in 2011!

I really don't like rap from 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009, **** I hate all new rap that raps about sex and how you are going to make your girl "wet". It's so **** and unoriginal. I miss the oldschool rap & hiphop that actually wasn't just about sex. I hate how things go to **** just because of money.

Expendables 2 10/10 for the cast 6/10 for the story I really enjoyed watching famous actors in the movie. It was cool to see Schwarzenegger in the movie and even Chuck Norris. I about **** my pants when I saw Chuck Norris in there. I loved the dialogue too especially the lines & references...
