Are "horns" on headband of new Beyerdynamic Dt990 32ohm normal? (w/ pics)
Quote: Also, check where the cable connects to the left housing of the headphone, there should be a rubber cover type thing with the Ohm's engraved in it. On my DT880 with the blue aluring it says '32 Ω'- Gatsby

Using an External Amp with Xonar Essence ST and Volume Levels (noobie questions)
Quote: Noted. It seems the answer wasn't as straightforward as I thought, but I have learned a lot. I will set the digital volume as high as it can get without clipping (hopefully 100%). Also, note I won't be boosting any frequencies with an EQ or sound effects or anything. Thanks...- Gatsby

Mad Max, thank you very much for you response, its very appreciated. I was actually looking into using ASIO/WASAPI or something to that effect already, I will research it more when I am home.

Using an External Amp with Xonar Essence ST and Volume Levels (noobie questions)
Thank you guys very much for your responses, it helps a lot. One thing I am curious about however, I read somewhere that if you don't leave your windows sound at 100%, you are not getting true 16 bit sound, If I remember correctly, this was an email someone received from Jan Meier himself.

DT880 Right Driver Rattling at Certain Low Frequencys and other issues..
Added a picture (not mine). My DT880's are only about a year and a half old, but they have seen a LOT of use and there was a LOT of hair present when I was removing hair, I'm hoping I just missed some somewhere, but if not I guess the driver is bad?- Gatsby

DT880 Right Driver Rattling at Certain Low Frequencys and other issues..
Hi there, my DT880 recently had rattling in the right driver at certain lower bass frequencies, so I did a search and found out there might be hair on the driver.
