Earphones Under £50
Hey guys I am looking for good quality earphones (IEM) under £50. I have had the Soundmagic E10's before but do not fit in my ear well and don't seal properly. The only shape that I find comfortable is the ones that come free with the samsung galaxy s3 Do you have any...- Jakob789521

Asus Xonar U7 DAC/AMP Impressions Thread
That's great I have to use high gain for some reason, Think im gunna send it back for a replacement. Are you plugging in the keyboard in the same usb slot as the U7? And are you selecting line in for the guitar?- Jakob789521

Sennheiser HD 598 + Xonar U7 Too Quiet
Yeah I have tried every possible setting, even turned Dolby on, It's just strange that I have to put volume at 100% all the time.- Jakob789521

Asus Xonar U7 DAC/AMP Impressions Thread
Hmm then it's probably worth buying from the UK and waiting a couple extra days, But see how your headphones work with the U7 first :) I only need the amp as I use a VST player that sucks when you turn it up haha.- Jakob789521

Sennheiser HD 598 + Xonar U7 Too Quiet
Hey thanks for replying, Well you say the highest gain setting is 150 ohms, but my high gain setting said 'For headphones <64 Ohms' IS that not normal?- Jakob789521

Asus Xonar U7 DAC/AMP Impressions Thread
Nice it is very good, It's an all rounder for me :) Yes the O2 is excellent, Which country are you in? and it doesn't really change the sound, it's just a really good amp, I use the sound card to change the sound. You would be surprised how small it is as well. (That's what she said)- Jakob789521

Sennheiser HD598 Amp Suggestion?
Hey maybe I will when I get my setup sorted :) haha Im not that good though. I use galaxy painos http://www.galaxy-instruments.com/galaxy-pianos.html I have them all and sound excellent :) Can't believe how much better they are than having an upright in your home.- Jakob789521

Oh I didn't realise you could use it while charging :/ I remember one not allowing you to do that. I think it was the E12- Jakob789521

Sennheiser HD598 Amp Suggestion?
Im afraid I have a laptop so need an external one. WHOA AT 40% I CAN BARELY HEAR MINE!. What's the amp like compared to the U7? I have to put it at 100% at high gain on my HD598's :( I bought a Objective 2 of a great guy in the UK who builds them at awesome quality, so that's my amp sorted...- Jakob789521

Asus Xonar U7 DAC/AMP Impressions Thread
No problem xerxe, Well I use a midi keyboard and a headphone out to for my piano, But that will soon be connected to the objective 2 amp. And yes try out the amp on the U7 first, Mine gets loud but I want to avoid turning volume up in Kontakt. Also I have been searching for something...- Jakob789521

Asus Xonar U7 DAC/AMP Impressions Thread
That is Awesome, you have made my day, that is exactly what I wanted to hear :) This means I can use the O2 for playing piano, listening to music and games. But also have the U7 for my Mic, Dolby and EQ and 7.1 if I ever want to. One last question, On realtek there was an option to turn Mic...- Jakob789521

Sennheiser HD598 Amp Suggestion?
Thanks for the advice :) But as I don't need a portable amp, I am pretty keen on getting a Objective 2 amp so it will be: Laptop < USB < Xonar U7 < 3.5mm Jack Line in to < Objective 2 < 3.5mm to HD598's This way I can make use of my awesome U7 and amplify with minimal distortion :) ...- Jakob789521
