Upgrading from the Sennheiser HD555
Hello everyone, It's been about 4 years since I bought the HD555s, and they're kind-of falling apart so I'm looking to switch to something else. I'm currently leaning towards the AKG K240 Studio headphones, as they're supposed to have some similar qualities; being open and natural sounding...- vlad951

DAC for GR07
Has anyone heard both and can tell how they compare? I read excellent reviews about both of them, and it seems that the DF can also drive some pretty difficult-to-drive headphones.- vlad951

DAC for GR07
Recently purchased the GR07 IEMs, and have been using them with my iPhone, and my computer, which only has on-board sound. In comparison, the sound through the iPhone is much fuller, it has more bass and soundstage than the on-board chip, which sounds very thin. I've been doing some research...- vlad951

Seeking recommendation for a sound card
I've read that the E10 cuts the first 0.7 seconds of audio. Is there any truth to it? Also, what other DACs would you recommend?- vlad951

Seeking recommendation for a sound card
Nice, it seems like a pretty good sound card. However, I'm thinking of maybe spending a little more. Do you think the Xonar STX suit my needs well, or would it be a waste?- vlad951

Seeking recommendation for a sound card
Hello everyone, As it turns out, the on-board sound card that I have sounds kinda horrible, that even my iPhone produces a much clearer, richer and detailed sound with the earphones that I'm using (VSonic GR07). Therefore, I'm interested in buying a sound card that isn't too...- vlad951

Hello everyone, My CX300's recently crapped out on me, so I am looking for a replacement. I basically listen to everything; jazz, electronic, death metal, ambient, etc... Therefore, something that works for many genres would be great. After doing some research, I came across...- vlad951

Upgrading to LCD-2 + DAC/Amp
Thank you all for your contributions! In case i'm going for the DAC, how does the previously mentioned Matrix Quattro DAC compare to Burson HA-160D (as i've heard it goes very well with the LCD-2s), and is there any noticeable difference between the two hooked up to these headphones?- vlad951

Upgrading to LCD-2 + DAC/Amp
After doing some research to which headphones I should upgrade my Sennheiser HD555s, considering the HD600s, HD650s and some other phones, I decided that the LCD-2 would be a better option - a more considerable upgrade. And now, I have a couple of questions to ask: I have an Optical...- vlad951

Headphone amp for HD600
I've finally decided to upgrade my HD555 headphones to the HD600s, and I was wondering what amplifier should I get to drive them properly. I will be using the computer as the source, and currently I only have an on-board sound card... So should I just get a card like the Xonar Essence ST that...- vlad951

What would be a worthwhile upgrade from the HD555?
Quote: I'm planning to use them on exactly those things you've mentioned. Genre-wise, I listen to many different genres; rock, metal, classical, electronic music, hip-hop, etc... So I guess that in this case a more neutral can should be considered, am I correct?- vlad951

New Cans....Think theres a problem
Wow, I have the same problem with the HD555 that I bought not too long ago, but only the left channel is louder. But not only louder, a bit "brighter" than the right channel.. Is the problem really with burn in, as I have them already for a week?- vlad951
