Hi heads, I currently have an older x-fi Fatality.  I use the toslink out to get sound to my HeadRoom Desktop Amp with a built-in DAC. I got Sennheiser 650s hooked into the amp via Zu audio cable.   I want to get a new soundcard that supports both 5.1 or 7.1 speakers, a mic, as well as...

The 95 dollars was for: that headband only (with the cheap piece of foam and plastic insert), me fixing it myself, and not including the shipping (which is ups ground and im sure that price is marked up too). UPDATE: Get this, If i send them my headphones, then its only 65 dollars +...

This is probably the simplest question for most of you. - I have a late 90's yamaha 5.1 receiver. - I have some Sennheiser wireless headphones - All my inputs are optical (CableBox + Media PC). Here's the problem: - If i simply use the headphone jack, I have to manualy turn off my...

Bump. Can someone please help me set this up right. Thanks again.

Hey head-fi'ers, I finnaly got a headphone amp to get the ultimate sound in the following order of importance: 1. Games 2. All other (Music, DVD, etc) The amp i purchased has the DAC built in so i was going to run a TOSlink optical cable to the amp's DAC. Questions: 1. What do i...

Thanks for the reply. I dont think it matters if you turn the HRD dac on or off for the specific test case. If you go optical out from your x-fi, thats a pure digital signal. The only way to interpret it would be using the DAC on the HRD. If you go analog out from your x-fi, then even...
