I bought a set of Meze 11 Neo earbuds and was really happy with the sound until I realized how horrid the microphonics are.. Like, can't shift your body an inch in any direction without intrusive microphonics.   Any recommendations for earbuds that are mostly flat with a little forwardness in...

I believe you that the E07K has a greater output rating, however I just switched an E7 out for an E07K and noted those volume differences. So the only thing that I can come up with as a contributing factor is the fixed volume that the E7 had. But even that doesn't square the issue, because it...

If that were the case, why are people reporting that when using the E07K with Wasapi/ASIO the volume control still works as if you weren't using one of those API's at all?

Can someone confirm that the D-Zero bypasses the windows audio mixer and volume control by default?    I recently purchased an E07K to replace an E7 and was super pissed when I found out that Fiio apparently buckled to the pressure of dumb people wanting to use their keyboard volume...

Why did they do this? The new unit looks better and has a fresher feel, but now i'm literally going to have to buy an old product just to get good sound again. What the hell. 

Just got an E07K as a replacement for an E7 that I lost and i'm really disappointed.    Wanted to ask a couple of questions before I return it.    1) This unit doesn't bypass the windows audio mixer by default like the E7 did. Any way to fix this? And no, using Foobar or ASIO4All isn't a...

WOW...   Fiio should really be advertising this, because it's a MAJOR departure from the product that it replaces.    I had an E7, which gloriously bypassed Windows mixer on ANY computer without installing drivers and messing with settings. I go and purchase the "upgraded' unit that replaces...

I just wanted to comment in here because I feel like the OP is being misunderstood.    You guys arent following the chain of components very well.    Going Video Card w/HDMI ---> Monitor with HDMI ---> Monitor's Fixed Line Out ---> Small Amp    Is definitely better than almost any...

I purchased a HomeDock HD when it came up on Slickdeals for like $40. I have it connected to my Onkyo A/V TX-SR607 via HDMI and it sounds outstanding. I'm still wondering how the sound is actually coming from the iPod Touch though.    Has anybody been able to establish whether or not it's...

I just had to come in here and say this...   I bought these headphones on Amazon's gold box deal for $79, and I couldnt possibly be more put off...    I searched head-fi + v-moda crossfade before buying and saw some good comments, plus Amazon has them at like 4-4.5 stars...   Yea...

I've had this Musiland Monitor01 USB for over a year now and its an absolute pleasure to listen to and use.    Now that thats out of the way hopefully someone can help me out here... I used to have an almost identical problem with a USB M-Audio Transit.    So I decided to use my Asus...

Can I replace the stock earpads with anything more HD600/650 like?

I know nobody will appreciate this observation because most of you guys take hi-fi too seriously to enjoy a good skull thumping, but the EX-71 IMO is the closest you can come, and in some cases better than full sized cans if you want to bump your head with bass for techno/rap. Just figured this...

I have a few hundred mp3's that I want to put on my PSP, the PSP has a really weak amp and I want to boost all of the volumes of the songs by a few db. Audacity can automatically boost the song to the point right before any clipping would occur but I havent figured out how to do it as a batch...

Jesus... Im so glad I didnt just listen to you guys and keep the super.fi's thinking I was bat**** crazy. These Klipschs are way better phones. Not just the bass either, they resolve more detail with the same equipment. Listening to FLAC files upconverted to 24/96 with Foobar (SSRC) I...

Just got the Klipschs, and about 30 seconds into listening to them, I already know that they are giving me everything that I was missing with the Super.Fi 5 Pro's. All the missing bass, is suddenly there. I dont know how to explain the difference because I havent had time to do extended...

Just thought i'd update this thread... I sold the SF 5 Pro's and picked up a pair of Klipsch Custom-2, gonna give these a whirl and see how I feel. I'll post impressions as compared to the SF5 Pro's when I get em. Klipsch also looks to offer a very interesting array of ear fittings, so its...

Quote: Originally Posted by dscans I have heard the Klipsch, and while the bass was not lacking, it was, to my ears, muddy and lacking defination. It's just thump, thump thump. The Denons has nice, tight bass with excellent defination, but it has a slightly bright and aggressive...

I just returned my UE Super.Fi 5 Pro's because IMO they lacked bass (yea i know ive already been beat up by people saying that isnt so). The only thing I can come up with is maybe I didnt like the lack of punch because they used armatures. So im tossing around the Denons vs Klipschs. I think the...

Quote: Originally Posted by intoflatlines If you think that the SF5 Pro have no bass you either have a defective pair or you are not getting a good seal. Or, you prefer the bloated Sony bass (there are a few on here that do). Of all the IEMs I have tried, the SF5 Pro has one of the...

Theyre definitely getting a proper seal, im not that dumb and this is my third pair of in ear headphones. I dont know, not sure how to explain what im missing. When I listen to my HD280's and HD600's theres a weight to certain instruments, especially brass and string sections of classical...
