Review by 'chuck8403' on item 'HiFiMAN RE-400'
Source: Macbook 12 with Audioquest DragonFly v1.2 Comfort and Construction: Overall the comfort level was good to me for an in-ear monitor. The key is to correctly size the inserts. Cord length is good for this type of ear monitor. Ended into a 1/4” plug with a 45 degree angl. For use on...- chuck8403

*Official Schiit Magni/Modi 2 ( Uber ) Thread*
They will do fine. The stack has plenty of power to drive the Alpha Primes. Good sound also.- chuck8403

The (new) HD800 Impressions Thread
I like to read all of the opinions and take in the differences. My HD800s sound fine to me with no EQ through either my Schiit Valhalla 2 or Asgard 2. I have read something recently that spoke to why what I hear and what someone else hears could be so different. I like the HD800s for the clear...- chuck8403

Noise with Bifrost
Just curious if anyone else has noticed this on their Bitfrost. I am listening through a Asgard 2 and HD800. I hear the relay click (normal I know) then through the headphones I hear noise. Sound that is like around 1Khz. I only hear it with the Asgard 2 turned all the way up and only during the...- chuck8403

Noise from Schiit Bitfrost
Just curious if anyone else has experienced this. I am using the Bitfrost going to the Asgard 2. I hear a noise once the relay kicks in. Just before a song on right after when the music is low or zero. Sounds like a 1k sound. If I plug a Modi in place of the Bitfrost, it is silent. Thoughts?- chuck8403

The (new) HD800 Impressions Thread
Just pulled the trigger on an HD800 today. Looking forward to hear the differences between some of my other headphones. Based on some of the comments in this thread, I am also going to enjoy trying these out on different amps. Should be a fun journey.- chuck8403

O2 AMP + ODAC
I personally don't believe that it adds any distortion. The 1/4" adapters stick out less than the 1/8" adapters.- chuck8403

O2 AMP + ODAC
I have one from both. They work the same and I believe both are now Rev. B. You may want to compare options and decide where you want the power port, location of the input and size of the headphone jack.- chuck8403
