Quote: For the song I play to test the bass, it's a .m4a, 320 kbps. Audio quality is "very high (lossy)."   Headphones are still making full seal, I only bent them slightly.   Source is my laptop and my iPhone, both do the same thing.

Got everything setup and I'm pretty satisfied with the setup. But honestly, the sound quality sounds on the DT770's are almost identical to a set of Monoprice IEM's I got for free with the amp (thanks TekeRugburn! Great seller).   On a heavy bass song with bass booster on, and EQ set at 2...
