Ultrasone Pro 900 Impressions Thread
Quote: Pretty much this. Without and amp the pro900's sound boomy and muddy and the bass overwhelms the mids. Both the M-Stage and D12 pull it right in line. They still sound good without and amp, but they become excellent with one.- spacewolf11

Ultrasone Pro 900 Impressions Thread
Quote: The lack of external DAC and amp really hinder these headphones in my experience. I seem to be one of the few who think they really have to be amped or aren't really worth the price of admission. On top of that, I found that the sharp highs mellowed out a little and the bass...- spacewolf11

Ultrasone Pro 900 Impressions Thread
Quote: That's what I mean, though I didn't word it very well. It sounds better to him out of the Xonar->DAC magic than USB->DAC magic, because the amplification it gets from the Xonar, not because of the connection between the computer/xonar and the DAC as seemed to be implied in those...- spacewolf11

Quote: Sounds good. I can do a meet this summer. Quote: I put off the air motor cad stuff until the last week. I was in the lab for 10+ hours that week knocking it out. It's really easy, just time consuming...- spacewolf11

Quote: Converting to FLAC isn't necessary but should improve the sound. I can hardly tell the difference between 320kbps and FLAC. 256kbps isn't bad either but is definitely a noticeable step down.- spacewolf11
