    Beyerdynamic DT-1770: Product Info, Discussion and Impressions

    Does anyone have recommendations for a DAC/Amp combo for this? I was looking at the MM uber stack but thought I'd investigate a little bit more first. I plan on buying this on amazon later and wanted to get the sourcing sorted out.   I currently have an e10 and was wondering if I 'really'...

    Beyerdynamic DT-1770: Product Info, Discussion and Impressions

    Am I being a fool or what? How do you people have these to try? I haevn't seen these available anywhere. These intrigue me a great deal and have wanted to read more about them but haven't really been able to find anything let alone somewhere to purchase.

    What book are you reading right now?

    The last wish by Andrzej Sapkowski   Read the fan translations a while ago and enjoyed it immensely. Recently decided to read through it all again before playing the games. Once I'm through i'm moving onto the games.    Fantastic stories to anyone who hasn't read it. Some of my favorite...

    Best classical recordings...ever!

    Thanks for all the responses. I haven't said much but I appreciate the amount of time some people have put into this!

    Audiosurf

    I actually don't like the game that much. I can't play it for more than a few minutes without becoming insufferably bored. JUST listening to the music is fine but the game just adds a sense of tedium to it that I can't seem to explain. It also is kind of annoying when 95% of songs have...

    Bloodborne

    It's not unfun. It's not as difficult as people make it out to be and it's quite satisfying when you beat a boss when you only have a sliver of health.  Unfortunately, the game is almost entirely grey and thus dreary so it's not exactly pleasant to look at and the moment to gameplay, while...

    Dishonored 2

    I really hope they give stealth a wider array of abilities. I loved the first game but it was the most fun being violent and aggressive. If you tried to beat the game stealthy (which I did and got the never seen and never kill achievements) you really use blink and that's about it. It's...

    Rate the video games you're currently playing

    I enjoyed vanishing of ethan carter. I can understand the walking simulator complaint. I don't necessarily give it weight but some games there is just a lot of walking. Some parts of half life is just 'aimless' wandering. The car section in hl2 was a really boring car simulator for like an hour...

    Steam games

    If you have the time, I highly recommend reading the books the games are based on. Some of my favorite books ever. Not all are officially translated but the unofficial fan translations are pretty good and really make you connect with the characters even more when you play the games.

    Why the Beats Hate?

    They're fine headphones. Are they fantastic? No. Are they arguably worth the price? No. But they work and they work well for their intended purpose. I've never understood the need to hate on things other people like. No need to be snooty. Different people look and want different things in...

    Sennheiser HD518 HD558 HD598 HD559 HD589 HD579 HD599 Support Thread

    Anyone have any tips on how to clean the 598? I've had them for a couple years now and they're starting to get a tad grody. I've used soap water and carefully cleaned aroudn the ears but there's still some dirt that makes the headphones look not nearly as nice as they used to. I've ordered a new...

    The FiiO E10K--all-new DAC and amp stages

    I have the original e10 but it's taken some abuse lately. Can anyone tell me how the e10k compares to the original? I tried an explorer merdian2 from a friend for a little bit and couldn't really tell a difference (I could but it wasn't worth the price imo) and am wondering if the e10k is a...

    Venture Electronics (VE) Duke - a new high-performance IEM

    I've had the duke for about two weeks now. They sound nearly as good as my hd598 (which is about what I hoped for in an IEM) and they have significantly cleaner bass than the hd598 but they just sound a little claustrophobic in comparison. Again, to be expected when compared to open back...
