Which one out of these headsets would you opt for?
@rubin, I've been told on another forum that the onboard audio is good enough and paying for a soundcard is a waste of cash (I could invest in a usb amp though, e.g.: fiio e10) .. and multiple people confirmed this. So I'm not sure if your recommendation was only based on a whim or solid...- Megahurts

Thanks rubin. One question, I read that the 558 are easy to drive, will my onboard ALC898 be enough? Or does anyone recommend that I should invest in a sound card?- Megahurts

Extension cable reversed my Left/Right

And ya they can be used in reverse. Honestly, I've never ran into...- Megahurts

Extension cable reversed my Left/Right

Extension cable reversed my Left/Right
Hello, I've bought 2 extension cables (3 meters) to use in my home, cables are quality, connectors are firm and there is no sound-quality loss. Unfortunately though, it seems that the cables have wrong wiring where the Left/Right are reversed. Do extension cables tend to do this or did I...- Megahurts
