**Hifiman HE-400 Impressions and Discussion Thread**
Decided to sell mine to feed my new wardrobe. Used for like 100 hours, in the past month. If anyone wants to get into this headphone, well, it will be one of the cheaper ones you find. Cheers- Empty Flower

HE-400 not bass friendly? Aren't they known as one of the bassier headphones?- Empty Flower

Comparison / Review : A tale of two Sennheisers – HD600 vs HD700
Wonder why so many people hate the HD700s. I wonder if there is a large degree of variability or something equally strange across the production line...- Empty Flower

The Playstation 4
How should I get quality audio out of my PS4? Should I buy an Astro mixamp or something like that? Would the optical on the PS4 to my optical Vali work? Was thinking of getting a V-Moda M80 or M100 with the attachable microphone.- Empty Flower

I'm curious as to how durable the transducers are in planar magnetic headphones? If you crank up the volume to levels painful listening levels, will this hurt planar magnetic designs more or less than dynamic drivers?- Empty Flower

I got this headphone recently, with the Schiit Vali and Modi (optical).

Schiit Gungnir DAC
I have a question, I heard Mike Moffat say that the Gungnir has a total of four DACs in there (one DAC per phase, per channel), but as far as I know spec-wise it's listed with two AKM4399s. I don't know much about how these things work so can someone explain to me what that is so?- Empty Flower

Isn't a single-sided magnetic array technically inferior to a double-sided one? I'm not an engineer, so, could be in the wrong here...- Empty Flower
