I would be willing to drive up to Boston for this. I could bring my HD800S and Aeon along with my Jotunheim and Darkvoice 336SE. I'm guessing nobody needs to hear the HD650's at this point but could also bring those if anyone is interested along with a few IEMs. Pretty much anytime during the...

I used to own the 558's. They have a pretty warm sound signature and are a bit muddy. I know some people don't really like the way they sound, but they should definitely be "clearer" than the apple earbuds (not sure if you mean the old earbuds or the newer earpods though, the earpods actually...

Just wanted to bump this, seemed like there was a decent number of people interested before but I'm not sure if anything came of it. Just picked up the HD 800S this month and it would be cool to try it out with some different gear. Unfortunately I live in a small apartment so I wouldn't be able...

You said you just wanted to know what else you need to connect your headphones/speakers to the turntable and that you weren't planning on using the usb output at the moment, correct? Not sure why DACs are being discussed. A DAC takes digital signal and converts it to analog, the signal that...

  I have a cheap pair of $10 headphones laying around that I have been testing with since I don't really care if they get damaged, and I found that I can reproduce the issue by tapping on the plate. I'll try cleaning the pins when I get a chance and I sent a note to Massdrop support just to see...

Hey guys I need some help   My darkvoice came in from massdrop a few weeks ago and I have been enjoying it, but the last time I unplugged my headphones while they were still on I got this really loud popping sound that came through my headphones, it was so loud that my ears were ringing...

As far as weekdays, march 13-17th would work for me since I won't have classes and I don't work until late at night. Other than that I would probably only be able to make it during the weekends. I will be out of state the weekend of March 25-26 but other than that I should be in the area. 

I have both the soundblaster z and the schiit stack (magni 2 and modi 2 uber)   The problem with the soundblaster z is that there really isn't any good way to bypass the amp on the soundcard. One way is to plug into the L/R speaker port instead of the headphone port, but it didn't sound right...

I live in northeastern Connecticut. I'm new to this hobby and broke so I don't have much equipment to contribute, but I'm usually not busy on Saturday's and it would be nice to meet up with some fellow enthusiasts and learn a few things.    Headphones: Sennheiser HD558 and HD650 1More Triple...

  I own both the 650's and the triple drivers.   To me the 1More's sound slightly more v shape than the 650's, they have a bit more bass and are brighter, but not to the point where they hurt my ears to listen to. 650's obviously have better sound stage, better mids and sound better overall...

Well, I'm pretty new to the audiophile world and made a last minute decision to stop by yesterday as I live a two hour bus ride away and didn't really have anything planned for the day. Went in looking for a set of IEM's and walked away with the 1More triple drivers for $85. These things just...

Just looked up the song on youtube, I hear it as well. Using HD650 and schiit stack.

I looked up the song on youtube and I hear a pretty noticeable staticy sound with the bass as well. Pretty sure it's the recording, I have been noticing a lot of static in some of my louder music ever since I bought high end headphones, even when playing from the cd. I don't know much about this...

OK, so I did some comparisons between the schiit stack I ordered and the soundblaster. I have an A/B switch that lets me switch between two different sources. Used my laptop hooked up to the schiit stack as one source and my PC with the soundblaster as the other, made sure no EQ or effects were...

Hey I have the soundblaster z as well. You could just plug your amp into the headphone port, haven't tried it myself but from what I have read double-amping can cause problems with audio quality, but hopefully someone more knowledgeable than me will chime in. Alternatively, there are two ways I...
