    Speaker advice please.. Passive vs Active

    Hello   I currently own a pair of Swan D1080-IV and I'm looking for a decent upgrade. I live in Australia so my options are somewhat limited.   What I have in mind so far is either the JBL LSR305 for AU$393 or the Q Acoustic 2020i for $319 + some kind of SMSL/Topping amp.   So my question...

    Hey guys   I recently added a subwoofer to my setup.   The way I have it hocked up is STX RCA OUT to stereo input on subwoofer then Stereo RCA OUT on Subwoofer to my D1080's. Everything works well. Only problem is now when I switch from speakers to headphone via the ASUS software my speakers...

    Compliment phones to DT990's??

    Hello guys and gals   I am a very happy owner of a DT990(600ohm) and a Little DOT MK3 (and a Essence STX). I am hoping to get some advice on a second pair of phones that are in the same class as the DT990's but offer something different compared to the DT990's sound signature. Since the the...

    Thx for advice :Essence STX < GoVibe Peak < Beyer DT880 Pro (600ohm)

    Beyerdynamic DT990.   Great bass for explosions etc.   Very detailed mids.   Nice treble on the 600ohm model with a tube amp for picking up footsteps etc.   Massive soundstage for great 3D audio positioning.   You wont regret it :)

    The Xonar Essence STX Q/A, tweaking, impressions thread

    I can tell you first hand that the STX has no problem powering a set of 600ohm DT990's. Sure, a dedicated amp will be better, but the difference will be very small.

    M-Audio AV40 + Essence STX + ?????

    Quote: Thanks for the reassurance, as one of the first things I did was replace the packaged AV40 Interconnects. I wasn't sure how much difference it would make before I purchased them.   Thanks Alien3456, I'll just wait for my STX to arrive and I'll play around with OpAmps until I...

    M-Audio AV40 + Essence STX + ?????

    So I take it by everyone's silence that there's nothing left for me to do apart from upgrade my speakers?

    M-Audio AV40 + Essence STX + ?????
