    Koss KPH30i appreciation thread

    You can plug it into any 3.5mm output. The 4th pin on the kph30i jack is for its microphone, used when plugged into a smartphone, PC, etc. It is simply ignored when plugged into a jack that doesn't have a mic input, such as most standalone amps.

    Welcome to Head-Fi! Your English is actually great! I wouldn't have guessed it wasn't your first language until you said so. English is my first language, and I often make more grammatical mistakes than you did, haha. I experimented with the same mods you did, and my experience was very...

    Thanks for your thoughts and experience, man! So glad I found head-fi and people as crazy about audio as I am. Waiting on the zeus like a 5 year old waiting on Santa. Just curious, have you ever tried the modhouse argon mk3? They are the only other ones on my radar at the moment that sound like...

    Haha! seems ive won u over to the dark side😂 glad hear you're enjoying eq! I like to picture eq as kind of like editing a photo: the subject of the picture (such as a person or a lake) is the music, the camera is the headphone, and eq is the editing software. If you want to, you can try to...

    Oh, have you tried eq? Resolve from the (headphone show on youtube and headphones.com) eq'd them to his taste, mostly to bring down and level out the lower mids, opening up the soundstage and adding definition to the bass (he left the bass at about the same level). You might can try out his...

    I don't see that he has one, but it does look like crinacle has one. My personal experience with oracle's and crin's presets have been 100% miss with iems so far. Try it out, though. Who knows, u might get lucky and like it. My ears and preferences might just be weird. edit: oops😂 i meant...

    Moondrop in-ear monitors Impressions Thread

    I'm looking to try out the Blessing 2 Dusk, and my source will be my Qudelix 5k (small portable dac/amp). It has a regular 3.5mm single ended output and a 2.5mm balanced output (with at least twice the power, but it doesn't matter to me given that the iems are sensitive and don't really need the...

    Oh wow, I knew that some manufactures ramble on about the quality of their cables, but I figured it was mostly bloated marketing with a hair of truth behind it, sort of like the toothpaste market. I didn't know that headphone cables were actually complexly engineered products with sound quality...
