Man, what a series of revolutions we've had with the DR150's. I'm happy to see that I'm not the only one who feels strongly about leaving the cloth on. I've recently stop using tape to hold the grill-cloth and hot glued it instead. I suggest you guys should do the same. When I think back...

In Audio Creation Mode select one of the RMAA settings for optimal line out. 100% volume gets noisy which is why I recommend using the preset snapshots. Personally I always turn the master volume to 75% after selecting RMAA 2448 to get the best sound for my amp and headphones. I wouldn't...

wow. you guys have moved me deeply. I'm truly inspired. I'll be back with photos.

Awesome! Yeah the thing that most people complain about with these cans is that the soundstage is too "flat" or 2-dimensional. Now I'm wondering if it's because those people also removed the cloth.... I notice that the soundstage sounds more natural with the cloth on compared to having it...

Somehow I can't shake the feeling that the cloth is not just meant for aesthetic purposes. It definately keeps dust out, makes it a little more difficult for hair from getting in through the grill. Maybe even keeps the moisture out. But most of all, it definately affects the sound. I...

Hey guys, regarding about the cloth on the grill removal "tweak". Initially I removed mine as well after reading what other people had to say about it. At that time, yes, it did make the headphones sound more wider and airy... After a few months of use I started to feel that the docs had...

Glad to know I could help. Just FYI, I'm currently using an ibasso D1 which has a rather bright amp. Basically it's actually a "top class" DAC with an integrated amp which some argue goes well with the DAC. Because of the bright sounding amp it can kinda get a bit harsh with the dr150. Since...

In order to pick the right amp you must first have as much understanding as you can about the dr150's. I have em too just to clarify. The thing about it is that has a very "in your face" sound stage. Depending on the songs you listen to, some of them can even end up feeling like the vocalist...

Although I agree that CMSS reduces SQ... I still think it's excellent for sound placing. Dunno about you guys but with it on I really like the fact that i can tell exactly where people are hiding in shooters. Even the exact height. Stereo is nice and clean sounding but I can't tell if I'm...

Once again it has NOTHING to do with "protecting" the iBasso. It's about the kind of attitude that was shown here.

I agree with you LeChuck, I was only trying to make a point that ultimately we should take responsibility for our own decisions. It's unfair to make claims that sound like "head-fi made me do it" and then be a rotten apple about it. We all joke about how this forum drain $ out of our pockets...

OP is the kind of guy who probably makes purchases based on other peoples opinions on the forums without formulating his own. So when things go wrong... he comes here to complain instead. REAL MATURE.

If you're a headphone gamer with the X-fi..... USE THE CMSS-3D FEATURE IN GAMING HEADPHONE MODE!!!! Only for games!! Be sure MacroFX and Elevation filter is set to AUTO and configure your games as if you're using 5.1 sound. As a gamer, I personally find there is no other better substitute for...
