wait, so let's say you had an HD650, you wouldn't consider the onkyo a big step up compared to the 100R?- fezzyness

The exact reason why open back usually has less bass impact than closed. The simple answer would be that the closed environment allows for more reverberated bass impact- fezzyness

just a heads up to you all. After buying the X1A on ebay, my jacks were loose and I sent them back to the seller, who also confirmed they were loose. Funny enough, onkyo japan said "there is no defect, this is the way the item was made" ^just a warning, apparently they're saying it...- fezzyness

just my two cents, but I really enjoy the HD650 balanced (and also unbalanced) at home. I'm a person that likes a bit of an emphasis of vocal clarity in songs, and also I'm not a big fan of distant sound stages. just so you know where I'm coming from.

in my case, it got loose and then completely distorted the sound coming through. then I got curious and noticed the 3.5mm jack could also be "toggled" around. So I sent a video to the seller and they were like "oh... yeah that's definitely not right.. we'll send you a replacement" ...- fezzyness

Yes I got the X1A for 540 so I don't want to get a refund actually. thankfully I sent a video to premium-japan and they will replace my device and pay for shipping.- fezzyness

I don't know how to fix it, the only audio coming out of the balanced jack is coming through the right ear and it blaringly distorted and loud, regardless of the volume- fezzyness

This was the x1a model. So be aware that while it might work, I guess it's extremely fragile- fezzyness

Try other streaming music players and players like neutron/poweramp and let us know what results you get. I'm using Spotify with no issues at all- fezzyness

At this point, I'm not sure if more power means better quality of sound though, because wouldn't balanced have sounded better? I thought it was fatiguing- fezzyness
