Need a Desktop DAC/AMP to power the following headphones   Beyerdynamic T1 gen2 Beyerdynamic DT1770 Senn HD600/650 AKG K712 Pro   Right now I am using my Chord Mojo. Wanting an AMP/Dac that I can leave on my nightstand that I don't have to recharge all the time. Just want to plug and...

I had to send back my DT1770's for a warranty replacement. Sonic Elec could not be a better place to shop with how they handle everything. However, my new replacement had a different case. I think the original one with the indentation for a handle was a little nicer. This one is square with a...

I've been into HiFi audio for a long time and have a good system in my Den. So I have a fair amount of audio knowledge.  Decided to set up a desktop system in my bedroom and need a little help. Source will be my Apple Imac. DAC will be either my Parasound ZDac V2 or my Chord mojo .Or maybe...

I got the new Beyerdynamic T5p Gen 2 this week. I need a really good closed headphone since I now listen at night time. These are really good but something is missing in the mids or treble. I can't explain it exactly. The mids are just off. Coming off the Audio Tech MSR7. These have a fantastic...

Currently running my Beyerdynamic T5Pgen 2 with a Parasound ZDac V2. Looking for a better DAC to get the most out of the headphones. I am being told the Chord MOJO would be ideal. Anyone with experience with both. Can someone maybe tell me if it's sideways move vs moving up in quality with the...

 So I got the new Beyer T5P gen 2 yesterday. Have about 8 hours on them. These are great however I am still yearning for a little more sparkle on the highs. My current headphone I was using is the Audio Tech MSR7 which have a great top end. Now when I compare the two the AT sound very congested...

Currently own the Audio Technica MSR-7. I really enjoy everything about these phones. My only Con would be the music sounds a little narrow. Or the sound stage is small. I am looking for a closed headphone that will be close to these with a nice low end and a clear almost bright top end. Smooth...

I own the NAD Viso. While its a great headphone I want something a little different and with more bass. Can anyone who has heard both of these phones tell me if the AT has a little more bass impact or is it a little deeper than the NAD? I am reading different things on both. Thanks

Hi all.  I had been planning on buying the Beyer T1 V2 for a little while now. However, I will have to go the closed route instead so I don't disrupt my wife's sleep in the same room. I don't have a place to audition here in town. Budget is $1100.00. Current closed phone is the Nad Viso. It's...

How can Amazon sell these so cheap? $543.00 is an outstanding price for these. I love the sound of them and just picked up a pair after selling mine a few months back. Should have never let them go but now I got some at a 200 savings.

Just picked up a set of Senn HD600 new for super cheap. I couldn't resist. I have only been using my Philips X2 and NAD cans for the last month. Both are wonderful. Just got done playing a bunch of tracks on the Senn HD600 for the last few hours. These are great too but could use a touch more in...

I am a previous owner of the Grado PS500.  It's been a few years however, but I just picked up the new PS500e.. I think I may have gotten a bad set... Or at least I hope. They are very congested and buzzy... On bass guitar notes they seem to get in the way of themselves.. I remember my old PS500...

Anyone here use a Parasound ZDAC v2 for their DAC and headphone amp?.. One was given to me and is in the mail. I know they make great products in the Hifi world. Just wanted some feedback before I get it.

Any imput on these two cans? I'm looking at spending around 500 and want a really clean sound. More so than my Senn HD 650.

Any suggestions on a headphone that has highs with a little more sparkle on the top end and the lows with more bas punch/impact than the SennHD650? Beyer 880 Beyer 990   I love the mids on the HD650 but the other ends of the spectrum need addressing for me.

Just asking opinions here for some feedback in case I am missing some brands. I listen to Progressive rock. A lot of it from Porcupine Tree to Rush etc etc. I am looking for a very detailed and wide sound stage. Good low end too I am leaning towards picking up Senn HD650. I owned these a long...

I got spoiled from my Beyer T1 cans from last year.. Not sure but I can't seem to see what the fuss is about on the X2 from Phillips. The mids seem way to recessed for me.. I got out of headphones last year since I didn't use them that much. I prefer to listen to my RAAL ribbon Ascend towers...

I will make this as short as I can. My issue... Maybe I don't have the right amp/source for my T1's... I own the Beyer T1's , Senn HD650  I sold my Grado PS500. I thought these sounded incredible but sold them as they were very itchy and uncomfortable after 30 minutes of wearing  them..  ...

I guess I am going to need a better source amp for my Beyerdynamic T1's.. Gear   Emotiva XPA-2 Emotiva UPA Emotiva ERC-2 Emotiva XDA-1   Marantz PM8004   I USE THIS MOST connect right to the headphone out. I have found it sounds better than my two headphone amps below.  ...

Need to get a closed back headphone.. My T1's leaking sound is not cool when my wife is watching TV. Now my issue is since I spent so much on myT1 I have a very little budget. Can anyone suggest a good closed back can? I know it won't come close but all I can think of is the At ATH-M50 or the...

As the title says the Grado's are better.. I have had both now for a few weeks and listened to them on a few different amps and source material.. I thought the Beyer's were going to e it for me but the Grado's are just more full, have a bigger sound and just hit hard in the bass. Guitars of...

I have a complete Marantz 2 channel system. PM8004 Integrated Amp. CD6004 CD Player I have purchased two headphone amps and two headphones in the last month. Just got into headphones.. Amps Bellari HA540 JDS Labs O2    Headphones Beyerdynamic T1 Grado PS500     My Marantz...

Has anyone made returns to Head-Direct. I sent back my new HE-400. The return address for credit is different than the main office. I am a little worried since they received them last week and I haven't been updated. I have called and left a message as well as email them. The strange thing is...

Purchased my Grail headphone yesterday. Beyerdynamic T1... From everything I have read, the Beyer A1 amp is the ONE to get for these headphones. I have the Bellari HA540 right now. Anyone have thoughts on using the Bellari with the T1's? I had planned on getting a solid state in the future by...

Long story short. I owned the Senn HD650 for a while and was looking for a more clear sound. Went through a few phones and ended up with the Grado PS500 last week. These things are amazing and a keeper. I returned the Senn's to Amazon and purchased the Hifiman HE-400. Got them today and they...
