I actually received two pairs of these and both have rattle in the right driver. One was serial number in the 500s and the other in the 800s. Although one was worse than the other.

Ouch!

Got mine today. Number 551. I definitely have rattling on the right driver when I play the following at high levels (O2 amp):  http://www.audiocheck.net/Audio/audiocheck.net_headphoneshaker.mp3   Bummer. I haven't noticed the rattling in normal usage though.

I tested using ATH-M40x. I will be getting a pair of AKG K7XX tomorrow and will do some additional testing.

Well I've been doing SQ comparisons between the Fulla and the FiiO E10K. I prefer the sound produced by the Schiit. The E10K puts a greater emphasis on the low end and vocals do not sound as clear/vibrant. The Fulla also outputs more separation between instruments. The build quality and line out...

http://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Audio_Output_Modes   In order to use ASIO, you need an ASIO driver for your DAC. It's best to try the manufacturer's first but if that doesn't work or if they do not provide one, you can use ASIO4ALL, which is a universal ASIO driver for DACs/sound cards.   ...

I actually ordered the Fulla to replace the E10K I bought recently. The FiiO ASIO driver was unstable on my Win 8.1 x64 laptop. The USB recevier is also incompatible with ASIO4ALL. I just hooked up the Fulla, fired up ASIO4ALL and now I'm good to go.

Orders are now live! I just placed mine.

Unfortunately, all my motherboard drivers are up to date and and I was already using a USB 2.0 input. Now, I am plugging in to my Dell port replicator/dock vs. straight in to the laptop. Not sure if that would make a difference. It sucks because the USB receiver in this DAC will not work with...

  That driver gave me blue screens on my Windows 8.1 system.

Anyone have this Schiit in hand yet?

Hmm... I've been using a FiiO E10K at work with my ATH-M50x. Wonder which is better...

What should in game audio settings be set to when using the Astro mixamp? Some games have settings for stereo or surround or in the case of the Last of Us Remastered there are stereo, 5.1 and 7.1 headseat options. I wasn't sure if if should always be set to stereo since the mixamp is doing the...

  Quote: Did the Controltalk feature work well on the 2 that had build issues? Do you think it is worth getting the Controltalk version? I also noticed your sig has ie8 as your current iem. Do you like these better than the MTPC?  

Can anyone else confirm that this is still an issue? I just ordered some MTPCs for use with an iPhone so I need to know if I should cancel the order?

In my quest to find to the perfect Warm + Sweet IEM, these are the four contenders. I am an audiophile newbie so any help on deciding the victor is appreciated. I listen to all genres of music but probably Hip/Hop Rap the least and Hard Rock + Folk/Singer Songwriter the most. I will also be...
