Another halft decade and still going strong. I have plenty other cans but these get to sit on my ear more often than the others.

I have to agree they are over rated. ill compare it to an rx700 give or take. but old phones like the jvc dx3 that can be had for 40 - 50 bucks online sound much better although it needs an amp. i used the m50 when I'm on the go and bought it used so it was already burned in and i was...

put it on my Xonar, set to 64ohm+ and they are unleashed! A totally different beast. This thread, though old has helped allot and I got these a while back for low price but didn't use them since both my Fiio E6 and E11 gave me the impression that these had very little gain. And distorted easily...

Late Reply but i still own thte dgx and its great for the price. thinking of upgrading but not sure if i should get the creative xfi titanum..( long ago i owned a platinum i thik the first one) or the stx.. even better if i can get something cheaper than stx but better than dgx with headphone...

Forgot To Mention. Limiters Are Not Your Friend If You Enjoy Bass. I have Every Sing One In Every App Turned Off. Good Phones Dont Need Limiters IMHO

sorry im lat.. dud just use VIPER4WINDOWS. turn it on.. flip on viper xbass and enjoy. i have both sliders on Max Using both JVC DX3 and HA-RX700   they never sounded So Alive!

was going to ask about low volume on my dx3 but you covered that.. these must be virtually impossible to drive with portable equipment or im using the wrong products. mind you i saw Fiio E6 rated at 300ohms. logic told me they may not work but tried any ways. i just got them by the way im a noob...

I feel like crying. Now looking for an upgrade for my rx700... I'm young and new to the audiophile realm... I have a pair of dx3's but been looking to try out a brand other than jvc and get the best for price. but I Can't Seem To Find Any HD540's anywhere :/
