Hello, with my current DAC kind of crapping out on me, I am in need of a fully balanced DAC around $1000 mark. I am willing to stretch it too, if the quality is warranted. I haven't checked into the scene for a while so I am not sure what's out there right now.

Hey guys so I've had the Hifiman He500 but basically it is murdering my neck so I've decided to look into getting a different pair of headphones. I am currently looking into the EL8 or the HE560 as alternatives. I really liked the signature of the He500 but I'm aware that there's a strong...

So I've been using my He500 for a bit now and I find it to be too uncomfortable for any more than one hour of listening. Thus, I have decided to get a new headphone. What I'm looking for is comfort and a headphone that can do decently in all genres though I do mostly listen to classical and...

Hey guys, I've been having some trouble getting wasapi on foobar. I make sure that foobar is closed, I put the dll file into the components folder but whenever I open foobar it crashes saying something about how an internal component is damaged. As soon as I delete wasapi from the components...

Hello, so I have an HE-500 and apparently, the right side sounds louder to me than the left side, even during left right tests. Is this because my hearing is uneven or because there is a driver problem, etc? It's a bit bothersome because as a result, in most of my music, it sounds like the...

Hey all, so I currently have the Sennheiser hd 598 and I was contemplating on selling them and getting the hd 650s or the 600s. I was wondering if the price is worth the "upgrade" so to speak. I have an Objective 2 amplifier and my DAC is the built in one on my Asus xonar essence stx. I...

So basically, I have an asus xonar essence stx and I wanted to upgrade my amp. Between the Maverick audio A1, Asgard 2 and the O2, which would be my best bet? I currently own a heir audio 4ai and a sennheiser hd 598 and I plan on getting the hd 600/650 or a beyer dt880 600ohm or dt 990 600 ohm...

So I plan on buying either the westone 4 or the weston 4r and I was wondering if there are any differences between the two whether it be the sound or build quality. If there is anyone who has experience with both, can you please list me the pros and cons of both? Also, does the westone 4 benefit...

So I was planning on upgrading from my RE-Zeros and I was considering the SM3 Earsonics because of what I've heard about them but the thing is, I live in a place where there's no dedicated headphone stores or anything of the sort so I have not heard any of the headphones I am considering. I am...

So I was looking around for some good full sized headphones and the Audio Technica ATH M50 caught my eye. I've never heard the sound it produces but from what I hear, it has very good sub bass extension, isolation and mids. I previously owned a pair of RE0 IEMs and I liked the sound that those...

So I plan on buying some T-400 foam tips for my Head direct Re0 but I don't know what size to get. My size from the stock are the large biflanges. They fit me perfectly. So I was wondering which of the comply tips would fit me best based on that.

Right, so as the title says, are the RE-Zeros good for classical and instrumental music? Because I have the Re0 and I was wondering if they are the same or if one is better than the other for classical. But yeah, I don't want any other headphone atm, I just have my eyes set on one or the other...

So I have a $100 budget and I need a good IEM that produces good sound for rock, classical and instrumental music. It'd be nice if it performed well in other genres as well but those are what I mainly listen to. I was a little conflicted between the RE-Zeros and the RE-0. Which would produce...

Hey, so I'm having some trouble picking out an IEM. I was contemplating between the RE-0 and the RE-Zero but I don't know too many good IEMs around that price range. I will be using a Cowon J3 with almost all FLAC files and I was wondering which headphones would bring out the best quality at a...

Hey guys, I was just wondering if I should get a portable amp for my RE-0 and Re-Zero. I was just wondering how big of a difference it would make if I were able to get a portable amp for it and I don't really have a price limit... So which amp would be best to get better bass and...

So I asked my dad for a pair of RE-0 and he contacted me saying that he could either get that or get me some Beats by Dr. Dre Tour Mobile with Control Talk In-Ear Headphones. I don't exactly know much about the beats but I don't really like them as they seem very over hyped. Could someone fill...
