Hey guys, I'm having a problem where when I set my equalizer to something like this     and anything with heavy bass will just hit this point where the bass will just fall/flatten out.   I run a soundblaster zxr with q701's and run the q701's in 600ohm mode.  Repeated hits of bass...

Totally agree do not use it.  

It's never lupus.

Hi,    so I just got my zxr and plugged in my akg q701's.   Now I'm not sure I should be doing this but I set the headphone ohms to 600? Currently going through mozart's concerto No. 5, piano guys albums and then heading off to do some dark souls 2.   I'm also messing around with the EQ...

If I pick up the Soundblaster Creative ZXR I won't run into some sort of redundancy issue will I if I get the ODAC/O2 as well?   EDIT: I mean, regardless I still need a sound card and the software for the creative zxr seems like a game changer.

  Yeah, see all this information overload is getting to me!   It's my first time and I'm kinda scared and want to get it right. 

    Thanks Mike, I guess the information overload really put me in a place of confusion.     Thank you for the information!

  Well, I pretty much have the soundcard I want locked in but DAC and amp I've no clue.  The nameless guide kind of stops when it comes to that point as well.  

Hi everyone so I just picked up AKG q701's and I'm looking for a proper setup for gaming and music.   I have nothing except onboard sound from realtek so I will be needing a new soundcard I assume?   I have something of an idea that I need to get a soundcard, a dac, and an amp but I don't...

Alright Welp, these are my first real headphones that I've spent over 200$ on.   Realistic budget is $500.  This is for all 3 of the pieces of equipment that I need to get the most out of my headphones.  It's not a stretch to me and makes perfect sense like cameras and lenses.   You have...

  My budget is $400-$800.     I want the sound card, the dac with the optical input, and the amp! I want the whole 9 yards as well.     So am I wrong in looking for the Titanium HD or is there a better one I should be getting?   And, with that budget what should I be looking for in regards...

Yep I know the 363D's have a built in soundcard of some kind but the sound card I want to buy is for my q701's as well as all the other things that will allow me to get the most out them.   I will be getting a laptop soon so the laptop will be benefitting the most from the sennheisers.  ...

Thanks Cel greatly appreciate your help!

1.     The Q701's are for any time I don't have to skype/ventrillo/teamspeak/mumble.  80% of the time.  So music and gaming.   2.     Windows.   3.     I'm not going to pretend on this I dominantly listen to mp3 files.  If I really like something though and I can get more out .flac I'll get...

Hi everybody!   So, I'm a long time reader and visited to know what's good and what's not and I finally jumped in the pool!   I picked myself up a pair of AKG q701's and 363D Senns. AKG's are for listening and enjoying.  Senn's are my travel for lanning and if I have to online talk.   I...
