The Xonar Essence STX Q/A, tweaking, impressions thread
(HALF OFF TOPIC POST) By the way as I'm thinking about it, I'd like to see what fanless or even mecanicless (without things turning I mean :P) configuration you can obtain with ivy bridge and for what price. I love graphics as well, extremely well detailed games, but when you don't play...- ThibWay

The Xonar Essence STX Q/A, tweaking, impressions thread
Thank you very much for your reply. I should have known you'll recommand me other opamps and you're perfectly right to do it but I can't buy things like this just by listening to one person, maybe we don't have the same meaning of "big difference", what would be interesting however is if someone...- ThibWay

The Xonar Essence STX Q/A, tweaking, impressions thread
Hello, I have a problem with opamps as well, I put 3 X LME49720NA and there's way too much highs :( !!! I have to put -4db on 8Khz and -8db on 16Khz and even with that, highs are still VERY agressive :( ! It's so agressive that I feel very disturbed with my ears, I tried to reduce it further...- ThibWay

Sennheiser IE8 screws for bass quantity don't work...
Thank you all ! It's nice to hear that the sleeves are removable (well, if it's sleeves obviously :P) , I thought my IE8 were going to be customized irreversably. I tried putting my finger on the screws, doesn't change anything... Well, anyways, I'll be able to deal with the screws even if I...- ThibWay

Sennheiser IE8 screws for bass quantity don't work...
Thank you for your reply :D ! I've compared them a second time, they do seem and sound absolutely real, I have this red wire and all the details, and bought from amazon from AVIDES (Germany) so it shouldn't be fake... About high volumes, well, that's the contrary, I have hyperacusis and...- ThibWay

Sennheiser IE8 screws for bass quantity don't work...
Hello ! Since approx 3 months I'm barely able to change the sound of my IE8s, even if I put the basses at the max on one side and at the min on the other side by turning the screws. While they were fresh, out of the box, I couldn't bare more than 10 minutes with the max settings it...- ThibWay

What's the shape of your head? Bass, Treble, or V-shaped?
Hello, EDIT : Sorry if I revived an old topic, it was the most appropriate place to post this I think . I like to have a generous quantity of basses but not overwhelming for the mids which must be beautiful and clear, I don't really like to hear a lot of highs it must really be...- ThibWay

Hello, (Not necessary to read the spoiler) I was thinking of Shure SE535 though the price is absolutely exagerated and doesn't seem to go down, or Shure SE530 at a fair price : I can have it at 270 euros... Maybe if I give you some examples you'll be able to help me...- ThibWay
