    Question about Amp Strength & Equalization.

    Alright so I recently picked up a Soundblaster G6 after looking around a ton. Mainly got this for playing on consoles which are a pain in the ass with headphones. After the recommendation from a friend, I decided to try the Harman Curve by Oratory. I have the Sennheiser HD600. Part of his...

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    Wasn't the review on Audioscience, but more that every audio related forums I could visit had at least a half dozen *different* posters complaining about Hel2 issues. Even saw a post about a guy saying he didn't know what everyone was talking about, his unit was perfect and he loved it, no...

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    Nice reply, but technically I've been here longer than you. *Technically*. Anyways, I'm going to look around more. I wish I could give the Hel2 a try via Amazon, sadly however it's almost 70$ more expensive on Amazon. I'm mainly just trying for something to connect to the PS5. My Fiio A5 Amp...

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    Oh excuse me, I meant to say the Hel2E. Amazon reviews are terrible; Head-Fi reviews are terrible, reddit reviews are terrible, and Audioscience reviews are terrible. Now I know people with problems are the ones posting, not the people without, but everywhere I look it seems nuts. Also...

    I'm interested in the Hel2, but I hear it has insanely bad QC issues. Thoughts?

    Is it normal to need a different volume for headphone Amps depending on the Source?

    So I set volume to 100% on the source. When I'm watching on my NVIDIA Shield, I typically turn the Dial on my Fiio A5 to around 35-40% Low Gain. When I switch to my PS5 as source, I need to turn the knob up to around 60-70% to get a similar audio volume. Using HD600's connected to my Denon...

    I want to use my HD600's on my PS5. I have a Fiio A5 Amp. What Dongle to get?

    Just to update, that cable did not work. When plugged in, my volume was so low, that even with my Amp on High Gain at 100%, it just barely was audible. Meanwhile normally I run the HD600 at 50% Low Gain.

    I want to use my HD600's on my PS5. I have a Fiio A5 Amp. What Dongle to get?

    So for the last few days I've been researching. Right now, I have my HD600 connected to my Denon X3400H via RCA to 3.5mm into my amp, and from there to my headphones. They're on Zone2. Watching media on my NVIDIA Shield, they sound fantastic and enjoyable. However, when I switched over to my...

    Looking for new surround setup, 500$ Budget.

    I have a Denon 1312. It's a small room. I recently decided to upgrade my budget form 300$ to 500$. Previously I had Energy Take RC Micro's, fairly good and I enjoyed them, however, most of the set randomly died on me, I tried everything, and can't figure out why. So I want a replacement. I paid...

    Best Earbuds under 15$?

    Prefer them on Amazon. I'm looking and torn. I don't want to spend alot, I mean, they're earbuds, I plan to use them with a Handheld system, maybe a MP3 player while I'm on the go, I do not need super high fi 100$ ear-buds. I got expensive audio equipment at home for that.   I was looking at...

    Modding the Sennheiser pc350 headset

    Damn. Not sure how the heck it came off. Literally all I did was taken them off my head and bam.   And I thought I could use them still, but I just tried them out in a 45 minute game session.   No go there. My left ear cup, the one with the broken connector, keeps like, I dunno, slightly...

    Headband came off? I can't see how...

          So I was fianlly getting my headset how I wanted it. Properly driven by a higher end sound-card, had the Hero mod(PC350's...), and sounded rather good all around, so I took em off, and all of a sudden one of the headband connectors came off.   I can't figure out how, either, it...
