Aune B1 & FiiO E10K or Aune X1S
Hello, Which one do you think is better, as from what there is in stores nearby, I have to chose either between Aune B1 + FiiO E10K as a dac, or Aune X1s as an amp/dac. What i am curious about is if someone knows the difference in quality between the B1 and the X1s and if FiiO is a good DAC...- BDT770

will a sound card be an improvement over this setup?
I'm suspecting a really fat soundcard will cost 3x more than a 3x better than it, dacamp. My experience with them made me conclude that, now if anyone has money to throw at it and prove it wrong then, congrats, what can I say :)- BDT770

An amp, a DAC or a DAC/amp ? What matters most ?
I am trying to properly drive a DT 990 PRO 250 ohm and the e10k is rated at just 160-180 ohm max and don't think is doing it fully, so I am thinking either to get a better amp/dac combo, or keep the fiio as dac and just get a good amp instead. I use flac, as well as mp3 and anything that...- BDT770

Get yourself a dac/amp thing as they're much better than sound cards. I've bought 2 sound cards and I ended up getting a DAC, after all as soundcards are simply not good enough for real headphones like yours there. They distort and don't reveal much, they simply are crap, no matter what sound...- BDT770

An amp, a DAC or a DAC/amp ? What matters most ?
Hello there... as I'm searching for a better option than a Fiio E10K.. a question mark keeps spinning around my head with this dilema... What's more important for sound quality... the AMP or the DAC ? What should I get ? A good amp and keep the fiio as a DAC ?! A dac/amp combo which is...- BDT770

Help choosing a better dac/amp as upgrade from fiio E10k
Is the difference so big between dt 770 or 990 and the t90, 1770 and respectively 1990 to worth the upgrade ? I'm asking as I need several pairs, not just a good one and I might get another if needed, rather than start selling now. So is it worth or is rather just a fancy thing to do ? ...- BDT770

Will active noise-cancelling headphones block out the sound of my neighbors voices?
He can get the 770 32 ohm, I own them, they're very good sounding and you can power them without an amp. Under 50.. I don't know what you can get. Though, maybe you should take a look at the akg k52, k72 and k92. They should be good, by reviews, as I never tried them so can;t say for sure...- BDT770

Looking for Durable IEM
Well. for durability, I've accidentally tested a bunch of pioneers in the washing machine several times and they all still work fine. All sony and other big brands are just falling apart by themselves, in comparison, they're just garbage. So, for cheap and durable little earphones, I'd go for...- BDT770

Recommendations for over-ear, closed headphones for gaming and music
Well you could look at the dt 770 pro / 32 ohm. They isolate very well while the sound quality is really good and are easy to drive. You got more than enough bass and everything you need. For comfort they are some of the best but can be better with the velour pads.. at some point :). Those dt...- BDT770

Will active noise-cancelling headphones block out the sound of my neighbors voices?
Well, hello ! I am using a DT 770 pro, with great success in making external things quiet as I'm listening to ambient too, so I'm recommending that. I don't know if noise cancelling works but from what I've tried, those type of headphones don't sound to good, hence that's why I've...- BDT770

beyer dt990 pro vs akg 240s-Any competition here?
OK, I found out. The dt 990 is superior to akg k240. The 240 only does voices better but everything else lacks compared to the dt 990.- BDT770
