Thanks The many beta versions of 3 all worked very well for me. The official version is up to 3.02 as well.

I had some gaming sound issues with a 1212m. Zero problems so far with RME 9632 and beta WDM drivers.

For readers in the UK Not sure if this is the 2007 version but I just noticed them on special here for £95 BEYER DT860 32 ohms http://www.canford.co.uk/commerce/pr...oductid=54-524

One man's EQ is not another's. As for sharing good ones....does anyone else have the same ears, headphones/speakers, room size & layout as you? If you need to EQ so massively to be satisfied, do you know what EQ does to phase? I don't want to discourage because the questions you ask show...

Great work on the review Asr! Totally agree about their synergy with solid-state amps. Recently bought AD2000 and Millet Hybrid from different forum members. HF-1 is now permanently attached to the Millet and AD2000 pairs fantastically with a SR-71. Both combos are more satisfying in...

Try setting the PatchMix session to 48kHz as well

Do you have a budget?

Focal Cobalt 810's, a lot more enjoyable than my headphones

I've heard you can use a hairdryer to slightly soften then reshape the plastic headband near the driver, so the curve there is flatter against your head where it clamps. Mine are a few years old and are just the right tension now

Saw this posted on OCAU and thought some of you would be interested http://www.freewebs.com/spectra9/xfmc.html

I'm currently using a RME HDSP 9632 with the beta 13a WDM driver. Music to ASIO output from Foobar. No issues at all with games to date. Heard it doesn't work in Battlefield 2 (may have been using pre-WDM driver?). Sound quality is superb, far better than the 1212m for my system. Headphone...

Thank you Paul! I hope they honour this price

Jbucla2005, I recently changed soundcards from a 1212m but found exactly what I was looking for. My system has musicality and PRaT back but most importantly I enjoy it a lot more http://www4.head-fi.org/forums/showp...7&postcount=11

I used www.jrrshop.com to get a 1212m sent to Brisbane (in 3 days!). Back then it was $199US and cost less that $300AU landed when the local retail was $530AU.

I was thinking about starting a new thread but in brief, the 9632 is significantly better than the 1212m in my system. One of my housemates was in my room last weekend during a party, all sorts of music cranking and he asked if I'd changed anything! I used the 1212m for 2 years and it offers...

Doesn't this page have everything you need? http://www.rme-audio.com/english/linux/alsa.htm

No battery life issues with the iAudio X5L. Mine gets to 50% after commuting for 5 days and an average of an hour a day during work, say 14 hours.

The RME 9632 does and if you ever need an analog out, you'll be glad you bought one

I got some free replacement ear cushions from Koss UK for my KSC-55's
