May I ask if Headroom Management is useful only when Gain is added with PEQ ,and not subtracted ? I am asking because I would like to only keep the Peak/Dip PEQ Band negative values of the PEQ posted.- Duncan_McCloud

Tested this EQ last week. Same feelings about the bass. Too "boomy" and distorted. Need to focus more on the High filters, which may adjust a little bit the harshness which sometimes happens- Duncan_McCloud

Sometimes happens to me as well with some recordings.. But before adding 5000€ (!!!) for the hsa1b, I will try some EQ on the High frequencies- Duncan_McCloud

I guess you are using the Interface Box, isnt' it ? Sorry for the obvious answer, but are you sure that the jack is well fit into the headphone. Mine was pretty stiff.

Well... from the manual... "Polarity (Phase Invert) Available settings are Off, Both, Left and Right. Inverts the polarity on the corresponding channel."- Duncan_McCloud

Yesterday I tried the HD800s after some weeks of SR1s listening. Well, don't know if it's the RME ADI2DAC that doesn't suite the HD800s well, but I have immediatly understood that SR1a >>> HD800s. It's just another league, and this coming from someone who always loved the HD800s- Duncan_McCloud

End-game Dac hunting 4-5k
To me SR1a has one the most controlled bass ever heard (but of course never heard an Abyss), and I do not need more. Anyway pair it with RME ADI2DAC and It should be easy to boost bass with EQ- Duncan_McCloud

Go for a RME ADI2DAC. If you really want something differente there's Dante as a protocol. Really doubt you will be able to get differences from two decent DACs. Everyone seems ti have golden ears at bit level nowadays To be honest, looking at your rig, I Will go for a TOTL headphones before...- Duncan_McCloud

Just listened to the HD800S, coming from the SR1a after few weeks. Well both are great, but HD800S feels like Headphone, while SR1a doesn't. Can't describe it otherwise- Duncan_McCloud

Amazon for 23€. It's meant to be used under desktop monitor, but It works well for the price imo. This was the smaller of three size: https://www.amazon.it/dp/B084SS22R5?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share- Duncan_McCloud

Was just listening to "Pink FLoyd - Echoes", which has some pretty good bass from 01:30 - 02:30. Well, I am not a critical listener, but Bass seems wonderful to me- Duncan_McCloud

Just got my RME ADI2DAC and been playing with JOTR + SR1a. Do you guys think it's safe to stack JOTR above RME ADI2DAC ? Do you know about a sort of small 3-level desktop rack to host them ? Thanks- Duncan_McCloud
