Hello everyone,   I recently received a pair of IEM's from a family member.   Just some background information, my family member works under Logitech to create custom mold's and designs for in ear monitors. When he gave me these as a gift, he said they were "generic casings," but had the...

This has been happening for the past week and a half roughly. I began to notice that the left driver began to lose some of it's impact and forward sounds compared to the right, I tried other headphones to make sure just wasn't the source but even using low-end headphones, I could hear that the...

Okay, thank you for the information.   Another question.   When using Electri-Q as a VST on Foobar, do you load it together within foobar as you play the pink noise? Or separate (as an application) from Foobar, and then load it (depending on what EQ you achieved) to play audio through the...

Hello,   I have a few questions regarding this tutorial.   When you start using sinegen, do you press the power button as a song is playing?   Also what settings do you put the level (-db) at? By default it opens at -15 and when played with a song, the volume of the song is unchanged...

Well, after 3 different usb cables, a powered usb hub, and 2 different modis, I have finally resolved the issue with my audio dropping out.   If you have installed the USB 3.0 Extensible Drivers from Intel, go ahead and uninstall them. I'm not particularly sure as to why it causes the audio to...

Is it normal for your magni to make a small, very small, static/pop noise when you touch the knob?   I would like to assume this is simply static electricity from your body going into the magni and producing the sound.

Unfortunately, I have encountered that very brief microstutter. Went back to make sure it wasn't just the song itself and confirmed. I have taken it out of the USB 3.0 Port on the motherboard and I have plugged it into the 2.0 port on my front panel. Sure looks ugly but... oh wow as I was typing...

What kind of cable did you use? I purchased a mediabridge 2.0 gold plated one, pretty sturdy material from the looks of it and it's working flawlessly at the moment.   As of right now, the playback has been going without any sort of microstutter. It might have been an in-game glitch, but I...

So I just got my modi. I noticed that there were often what I would call "microstutters," Where the audio would cut for about maybe... 1/4 of a second and that would be it. I went into my speaker properties and changed the format to 24/96 which helped reduce it since it happened quite frequently...

Just got these. I noticed that when my headphones are plugged in (Q701), and I turn on the amp, it makes a pop noise, mostly on the left driver.   After further searching, I believe this is known as the protective relay? What exactly does the PR do to generate a popping/thumping sound when...

What could I practice on? Also, the solder I got is coiled up like a spring, can you bend this straight to make soldering easier?  

Quote: The k81's wires are a mono so i think i'll be able to follow it down like so. The one I bought isn't the one i'm going to use, I might use it on some spare headphones to practice. I am planning to order a Switchcraft 35HDNN to use for the plug.   Is soldering hard at all...

So today at school my left speaker of my akg k81's went out. I thought it was the headphone jack of my ipod again and so i fiddled around with the connection to see if it was but when i plugged them in onto my phone and listened to music through there, i realized that the connector plug was...

Yeah I called them back but they didn't answer. lol :facepalm:   It's about 75-80 on amazon for the dj100's. also are the superlux 668B any good for my kind of music? They're extremely cheap, going for about 40 bucks on greenflymusicsupply. Still open to more options.

I'm not much of a basshead, in fact too much bass will just kill me (as would most people too i guess). I just want the bass that's there, noticeable and gives a nice impact to your ears but not too much.   I heard that the Dj100 pro is comparable to that of the m50s if im not correct.  ...

How are the Equation RP-21? I've seen them pop up here and there.

How are the hd555s? I heard you can mod them easily into 595s but i'm not too sure if they have enough bass, i heard they lacked some.

Now that i've searched a bit more.. there are quite a lot of people who state that the bass in the 700's do seem a bit lacking. Any more suggestions?

So, my grandma randomly decides to give me 100 bucks. Immediately I think about getting new headphones. I currently own the HD 201's and the AKG K81 DJ's for portability.   I specifically listen to Dance/Electronic music such as drum and bass, trance, happy hardcore, hardstyle, dubstep...

Hello, once again I have come back to this forum to see what would be preferable. I currently own the AKG K81 and sometimes I strain to deal with the clamping force of it is a bit too much. The foam removal mod not only improved the sound but also made the clamping force a bit less but I'm still...

I have looked over Joker's thread and for the IEM's. My signature sound area would be that of electronic music and apparently the Meelec M6's are quite the choice for Trance/Electronic music in general. How would Drum & Bass sound with these? I suppose one wouldn't know without actually trying...

Quote: I have but I'm not too much of a fan of IEM's just because I ironically believe that it's more of a hassle to handle eg. Tangles more often but that's just me :/. If there are any IEM's that perform much better than the aforementioned headphones listed above or any others, the...

After quite a long time of researching which headphone would fit the best for school, I have yet to come to a conclusion. It is difficult to choose from the amount of headphones available due to their pros and cons that I have read throughout the internet, and especially Head-fi.   My first...
