    Sennheiser HD800 S Impressions Thread (read first post for summary)

    Thanks, yeah man it’s like obviously I feel like I “should” get the pro version if I’m going to spend this money so I can utilize the headphone amp for all my sources, I just wish it wasn’t an extra like $700 ONLY to gain an rca input lol. I guess I could in theory use an rca to coax adapter...

    Sennheiser HD800 S Impressions Thread (read first post for summary)

    Thanks, I’m curious do you have the Pro version? The only thing I‘m looking at on this one is that it would seem I’d need the Pro version to be able to use it with a turntable as that one has analog inputs. Currently I run the Zone 2 out on my receiver to the input of the Schiit Valhalla and...

    Sennheiser HD800 S Impressions Thread (read first post for summary)

    Thanks, actually another (cheaper) product I’ve been looking at for a while is the RME ADI-2. That would obviously be both a DAC and headphone amp combined. Any thoughts on this one?

    Sennheiser HD800 S Impressions Thread (read first post for summary)

    Hello, I picked up some HD800s’s this weekend after many years of curiosity and so far I’m definitely impressed. That sound stage is something. But of course in this hobby you always wonder if a step up in something else might be worth it. Right now what I do is I send the zone 2 of my receiver...

    AirPods Max

    Hello, I decided to give these a try today as I noticed they were ~$100 off open box @ Best Buy. While in general so far I'd say they sound solid, I'm a bit confused about the "Atmos" implementation. I've spot listened to a few albums (The recent Beatles remixes & Taylor Swifts new album) and...

    Bowers & Wilkins PX7 noise-cancelling over ear headphones

    Had them for about a week now. Definitely the most comfortable B&W headphone I've worn, and I don't think they look cheap at all. I actually much prefer the look of these to past versions like the P7 & PX. They sound great, definitely a bit more bass than some others I've used. Not over...

    Bowers & Wilkins P7 Wireless - Impressions Thread

    P7 owner here and I think they're just outstanding, love everything about them. One thing I've noticed though is when I'm listening to Spotify, Play Music, etc on my Pixel XL is that when I have it around a certain volume level it seems to skip one of the volume levels. So it'll go from fairly...

    McIntosh gear.....help please?

    From a lot of my looking around/research I've done I came to the decision/conclusion that for right now getting some better speakers would probably provide me with a more noticeable/tangible audio different than doings something huge like changing all 3 of amplifier/dac/speakers. So what I've...

    Schiit Ragnarok Amplifier

    Yeah that's what I figured, thanks. So how does that work in regards to the crossover setting? Do I run the speakers into the sub first, and then out from the sub into the Rag? And also do you (or anyone else) have any input into my upgrade thoughts up there as well? Thanks,

    Schiit Ragnarok Amplifier

    Stumbled across this thread and am looking for some insight as I've become focused on a Ragnarok/Yggdrasil combo for my room. Right now I currently have: - Soundblaster X7 - Yamaha HS80M monitors/HS10W sub - Beyerdynamic T1 headphones - PC for music/gaming - Technics SL 1200 turntable I've...

    McIntosh gear.....help please?

    So I've been going back and forth recently with doing a kind of "end game" high level upgrade of my components and I've gravitated towards McIntosh but I have some concerns/questions. And it just kind of seems like (understandably) that the higher up you go in gear, the harder it is to find...

    Creative Sound Blaster X7 - Detailed Review & Impressions

    I have the 600 ohm T1's and yeah I was wondering about that too, a potential headphone/speaker upgrade.

    Creative Sound Blaster X7 - Detailed Review & Impressions

    Hello, have some questions for fellow X7 owners. I've been tossing around the thought of switching from the X7 to a different DAC/Amp recently, and my initial search brought me to the Schiit Jotunheim. I'm just curious on people's thoughts as to whether or not this would be a legitimate...
