    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...

    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...

    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...

    Sorry to disturb you but my thread went down to the 5th page and I still don't know what to tell my audiologist for my custom sleeves and the rendez-vous is on the 8th of January :( ! Does anyone have an idea about what I should ask in order not to reduce the IE8 soundstage ? I think I...

    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...

    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...

    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...

    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...

    Thank you for your reply  According to my tastes and the reviews I should go for IE8, indeed I just got to that page : http://www.anythingbutipod.com/forum/showthread.php?t=15243  I'm affraid I might not like Shure at all in the end.

    bored by my Shure SE420 :(... Need adivses for a model with a signature I like...

    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...
