Creative Sound blaster E5 - Headphone amp + USB DAC with OTG + Toslink + aptX + recording + more.
Just wanted to stop by and say the E5 is working (so far) with the iPhone 8 Plus. There was a major issue with the iPhone 7 Plus and the E5 having all kinds of fun sounding distortion, skipping, etc. But so far it's working great. iPhone 8 Plus 256GB Verizon/Qualcomm version running iOS 11, E5...- MoSXS

iPhone 7/7+ Compact External DAC/Amp Thread
Just wanted to stop by and say that the Creative Sound Blaster E5 works with the iPhone 8 Plus. Whatever issue there was with the iPhone 7 Plus has been resolved. Kind of sucks it required a whole new device to finally fix. But hey it works again! 256GB iPhone 8 Plus running iOS 11.- MoSXS

iPhone 7/7+ Compact External DAC/Amp Thread
I have the exact same issue. I have an iPhone 7 Plus 256GB. Lightning to Sound Blaster E5 presents all sorts of fun issues in regards to popping, skipping, clicking, screeching. The iPhone itself works fine otherwise. The Lightning to 3.5mm adapter works great. It works fine in both of my cars...- MoSXS

Well, it's been many months since I even posted on this forum. My A900X has gotten a lot of use in that time. "A lot" is an understatement. In the last several months the way the headphones fit and feel has changed dramatically. Out of the box they are a bit on the stiff side and not very...- MoSXS

I just want to say I have a few issues with this review. Other than the fact that the "review" seems heavily biased against the A900X from the start, it honestly sounds like the A900X "review" was done on either a fresh out of the box set or an in store demo. Why? Well, let's look at the...- MoSXS

SR60-Mod part II
Just wanted to say I have the original SR60. I finally did the quarter mod and I pulled out the little white vinyl cover. It's freakin amazing how much better these things sound now. It doesn't sound like I'm listening to music through a pillow any more! heh. They still sound like they need to...- MoSXS

Just got the Mac Book Pro!
Quote: No need to fix my post with your opinion. And I still have yet to see how Mac OS X is better than Windows. It can't play blu-ray discs, it can't play modern games, it can't play older games as good as they run on Windows. Now that Lion is out, we can discuss the flaws...- MoSXS

iphone 4 sound quality
iPhone 4 owner since day one here. I've either had my iPhone "naked" or using the free bumper case. Device is as close to mint condition as it can be. Even had it knocked out of my hand and it fell face down and flat on concrete while using the bumper case. Not a mark on it. You'd have to be...- MoSXS

ipod (apple) customer support appreciation thread.
Heh, okay, I'll bite. I'll just talk about my most recent Apple "Care" experience and not all of my other pleasant run ins with Apple"Care" over the years that resulted in me being without my Mac for WEEKS at a time. So I bought the new iPod nano last year shortly after it was released...- MoSXS

Just got the Mac Book Pro!
Spareribs, might want to make sure you're REALLY happy with your purchase before going too far with your MBP. The honeymoon period WILL wear off. I bought my first Mac 4 years ago and I regretted it shortly after the return window closed. Apple's build quality forced me through two replacements...- MoSXS

iPad 2 first impressions. Will you be getting one ?
Got to play with the iPad 2 yesterday for a good amount of time. Thankfully, the headphone jack isn't recessed. Cameras are "neat", should have been in iPad 1. But the rear facing camera is bad to the point of being useless. Can't comment on sound quality. Couldn't tell a real...- MoSXS
