Most are lossless with the few being 320-256kbps mp3s Amp is a xonar essence one

hi, i just got these cans secondhand, the seller said he used them only for 10 hours, i find them to be unbearably sibilant and bright on most recordings, is this the result of lack of burnin?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RcmKbTR--iA pretty damn good and embarrassing when i found out it was from far east movement

stay away from logitech they are horrible, look up audio engine 5 or 2 and swan m10 or m-audio av40

I would very much like to try the ck 100 and do a comparison with my akg k702 and tf 10s also had an esw9 but sold it

update: i have tried the HD600 and the ad900 the hd 600 i did not like very much, no particular reason why but i just didnt like the senns sound signature even from the cheaper models i have tried.   the ad900 was pretty good, its like the ad700 except they fixed the hole in the...

looks like i will be auditioning a few headphones then, probably borrow the k701 and the hd600 and look at some other full size in the store near my area, good thing i know the owner of the store so that i can borrow the demo units when he closes down in the evening, will compare the phones with...

hm...as i said before buying an amp is not an option for me due to limited space, i presume the second hand price of the hd 600 is about the same as the esw9 and k701?

i am really open in my musical preferences, i listen to everything from rock,pop,acoustic,hip hop,classical,jazz,R&B, and sometimes even techno but mostly j-pop(can be classified into pop i suppose).   this is probably why i have 3 different headphones with 3 different sounds, tf10 being...

i actually do like the esw9s but it seems too colored compared to the tf10 and the etys my brother recently bought a um3x and i tried listening to it, and it seems just like a more refined ety   how about any other cans that can be driven by the soundcard? i really dont want a desktop amp...

how would you compare them to say..the tf10 and etymotic hf2 or er6i since that is what i currently own besides the esw9? also any other can suggestions that can be sufficiently driven by the xonar?(i read that it can drive 600 ohm cans but isnt the k701 only 62 ohms?)

i currently have the esw9s and was thinking to upgrade to full size since i never take them out anyway   so will the 701s be an upgrade in terms of sq and comfort?   i currently use asus xonar essence stx as the amp i assume that would be enough?

hm.. i will try out all 3 lm 4562 and if i dont like it i will probably order another op amp for the buffer section , what do you guys recommend for the buffer? also 1 more question, the card can be connected to the front case jack correct?will it sound worse than running an extension from the...

hi i have 2 extra lm 4562 op amps would it be a good idea to put 3x lm 4562 op amp? or just stick with the stock ones until i get some other op amps?  

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320538683184&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT im selling these if u guys are interested its not the vi version though and total would be 140 aud incl shipping from australia

as title suggests, will logitech do it?or is there any other way to replace the cable without any chance of me screwing it up?

Thx apparently on entertainment mode it becomes mic in but in audio creation mode its line in! Kind of a bad design decision i think

Thx for answering, it has 4 jacks 3 for surround and 1 called flexijack that works as both line in and mic in

i have a x-fi model sb04060(xtrememusic) i ordered 2 lm4562 op amp and the blackgate capacitor to hotrod it, can i use the other op amp to replace the line in op amp?   reason i'm asking is i use my xbox 360 by plugging into the sound card line in and it sounded very very bad

Amazon.com: esw9 amazon has them for 218$ which is quite a discount from the retail 300$ i think

ah i see.. is it really worth it to add the fourth driver? i mean is the sound improvement worth an extra 120$? i see in your sig that you have a um remolded tf 10 pro is it a 4 driver or standard 3 driver?, how do they both compare? i assume that the remold still makes the cables detachable?

i'm in the process of ordering triple fi 10s and am going to reshell them with unique melody with a 4th driver addition. so a couple questions first:if the driver inside the custom iems for some reason breaks after a few months i assume UE won't fix it correct?if so what happens?does it...

i did check audio cubes but they did not have that particular color
