Sounds like an important update, I'll be putting that on as soon as mine comes in, thanks. The back button functionality sounds like its pretty messed up right now, hopefully they'll fix it soon.

I ordered the 8GB version from SanDisk's site last night. Also picked up a 32GB class 10 micro sd card today - less expensive than I thought it would be, at $60. I've never tried the original Clip due to its non-support of AAC files (natively at least) so I won't be able to compare it to that...

Quote: Thanks for the advice! I ended up also ordering a pair of OPA2111KP and 2137P op-amps. They're all cheap enough that it's worth having them to play around with and see which ones I end up liking most.    

The stock op-amps with my HD650s were starting to annoy me a bit due to how forward (maybe bright?) they were, so I ordered a pair of OPA2107APs. Hopefully these will give me a bit more of a relaxed, smooth, warm sound, along with more bass (which I would greatly appreciate!) Since I'm a total...

After a bit of belated experimentation, I take back what I said about avoiding the extra high gain setting because of bass distortion. This turned out not to be a problem with the gain, but with the STX ASIO drivers! Going through the Windows mixer / ASIO4All (and I assume other ASIO drivers)...

I don't know anything about the technical aspects of how the gain settings actually work, but from my experience so far listening to my HD650s through the STX with stock op-amps, I feel that the middle gain setting of 64-300 ohms is probably best for those cans. At the same volume level (as...

Got my card in and installed after many grueling, nightmarish hours (see my installation problem and solution here). First impressions, though I'm somewhat tired after my ordeal, are wow! This thing sure has a lot of power amp-wise. Paired with my HD650s, everything sounds very full, powerful...

Quote: Thanks, I'll go ahead and order a cable then!  

I just ordered an STX from a local company. My Darkvoice amp kind of died, and my Emu 0404 USB is getting on and emits an annoying high-pitched sound, so I figured it's time for something new. I do have one question though (forgive me if it's a stupid one):   Because the amped head-phone out...

Thank you very much all! I actually. . . forgot I made this thread! So sorry for the late reply, but very much appreciated! I think I will go for the 600s. I was worried from some reviews that they would actually be brighter than the 580s, but it seems most people agree (as I originally thought...

I've had my Sennheiser HD580s for a long time now and I've really loved them. They broke recently though, and are unfortunately not under warranty. So, I've decided to seize this "opportunity" and upgrade along the line. My choice is between HD600 and HD650. Most of all, what I'm looking for...

I just got mine in today. It always takes a few weeks, if not months, to really come to terms with how you like a headphone, but here are some quick initial impressions (all with original pleather pads): 1) Sound quality: It's really quite good. I now really won't feel I'm missing anything...

Right now I'm using the Yuin PK3. I've ordered the Sennheiser HD25-1 IIs just a few days ago, so those will also start playing a huge role. Then it (should) be the HD-25 for when I go on walks or am in one place for a bit, while the PK3s I'll continue to (as I do now) carry around with me...

Thanks for the advice everyone. Unfortunately, they don't have these on any Sennheiser price lists here in Ontario, so the only way I'll be able to get it is through eBay. . . I may just give it a shot, in which case I'll be posting back here in the future with my opinions. Grrr, I hate buying...

Hello HD25 fans. I'm considering getting this phone mostly for taking it on walks around the city with me (since I hate it when you're on a busy street and all of a sudden you can't hear much of anything). I'm wondering, just how good is the isolation in a case like this when you're out and...
