    Stereo Tool (and other DSPs)

    This is the best thing out there. It's free as well, don't know why people don't mention it here.   I started using it with Winamp after extensively looking for good DSP, ended up finding Stereo Tool that beat all other in so many ways.   Now I use it with Aimp3 as Winamp has been off for a...

    $2 Realtek Audio Chip = $2000 DAC!

    When you first bought a PC you didn't have a soundcard, but where quick to pick one up. Brought much more pleasant audio from the low quality built in chips on the motherboard. Other than that tons of tweaks and EQ settings.   When you go on and buy hq satellite speakers and a subwoofer you...

    Calibrate subwoofer

    Apart from the volume I have a crossover frequency and phase setting on my Cambridge Minx x200 sub.   I set the frequency at 80Hz, 10Hz above my speakers lowest, as adviced.   The phase is a different matter. I have read and seen videos, using a SPL meter, which I have, but don't seem to...

    Oyaide

    Try Ebay.com   I'm specifically going for the https://www.moon-audio.com/blue-dragon-cable-sennheiser-headphones-v3.html   cable, as I find the Oyaide little short for my needs, and since they use metal on the connector to the headphone, it makes it a little bit heavy on the ear. But great...

    Oyaide

    Just got the cable from Oyaide, and wow, from being some avarage headphones, boring most of the while, the soundscape is now on another level. More high, clear, heavy... everything at the same time makes this HD598 very interesting at the moment, and makes them feel like very high end...

    Sennheiser HD 598 Impressions Thread

    I agree on some point, but wouldn't touch anything from China. The Moon made cable and Japanese Oyaide seems to be quality built using proper material. I have experienced huge difference with quality cables when it comes to speakers, cable from sound card to amp, speaker cables, sub...

    Sennheiser HD 598 Impressions Thread

    I'm looking to replace the cable. Best option I assume would be the https://www.moon-audio.com/blue-dragon-cable-sennheiser-headphones-v3.html   But the price is high for the 3m cord which I want and I need to pay toll taxes.   Second would be the much cost effective cable Oyaide HPC-62HD598...

    If people already haven't noticed, these headphones are for multimedia, and make sound great for watching movies etc. Not recommended for music. Reading the specs one should understand:   High-end open circumaural headphones with E.A.R. technology for outstanding sonic accuracy and clarity...
