The G3 with Ksc 75 or B&W p7 frankly sounds incredible. I have an Essence HDACC and I cannot distinguish between these two in terms of clarity, dynamics and details. The output is crystal clean.

So I bought the Island headphone amp / DAC. After doing a lot of search, I couldn't find any cables that provided this balanced connector for the Island. How / where do I find a cable that provides this connector so that I could enjoy balanced output on the HD 600 ?  

Doesn't the resampling to 48 khz screw up the signal in terms of quality ?

Hi, I was wondering, if buying the Gigaworks T40 set would be worth it over the existing set of klipsch pm 2.0 ultra I already have. Is it worth the money and is it going to make any difference in the sound quality ? Would appreciate if someone has actually heard both of them together and...

Hi.... I would like the windows volume control to take over the EMU instead. If i keep the EMU as my primary playback device, it disables the windows volume control and grays it out. How do I let windows control it ? I want this functionality in order to use my bluetooth remote to control...

Have a pair of grado 225 cans, but no amp (no money) and want to use either one of the soundcards with my laptop as the primary source of music. Which of the soundcards with their built in amps be able to drive the grados better ? Was eyeing the 0202 cause its quite a lot cheaper than 0404...

I have a pair of Creative EP-630 headphones, which are rated at 16 ohms of impedance. The problem is that I am trying to drive them directly through my laptop's sound output and it gives a hiss in the background even with the volume turned to zero, which I believe is due to the result of...
