It's been a while since I've done any research, but don't the 600 have more bass response than the 598s?- Agavehound

O2 AMP + ODAC

O2 AMP + ODAC
Hey gang, I've located an AC adapter locally, but I don't know if the mA rating is too high. Ouput is variable @9-13VAC and 800mA. Is that too high and will it damage the 02/ODAC unit?- Agavehound

O2 AMP + ODAC
lol, yes of course. I'm at work in multiple meetings today so I'm unable to check it more thoroughly at the moment. A buddy check the PS for output and found nothing. Now, where to get a replacement...asap. I don't want to be without it for long. :p- Agavehound

O2 AMP + ODAC
Got a problem now. I hooked up my 02/ODAC to my work pc per usual, but there is no power. Everything is hooked up properly and switched on, but the power light is not illuminated. I suspect it's the power supply but not sure. Is there a quick and easy way to see if the PS is bad? If it is bad...- Agavehound

Sennheiser HD 598 Impressions Thread
Well, for the past year I've been listening to my HD598s on my desktop with a Creative Titanium HD. That setup was a big improvement over the onboard sound and IceMat headphones that I used for years, so I was happy. But lately I've been spending more time on my laptop doing homework and the...- Agavehound

O2 AMP + ODAC
I ordered the 02/ODAC combo last Thursday and it shipped the same day. That was five days ago and it was delivered today. All I can say is WHOA! Is that what I've been missing all these years? My setup before the arrival of the 02/ODAC was a simple desktop setup with a Creative Titanium HD...- Agavehound

Rhapsody, just don't sound right
Hey, I just got moved to Rhapsody from Napster and decided to stream some some music. I haven't listened to much online stuff in the last few months since I downloaded Foobar2k so I don't know if it really sounds that bad or if I'm spoiled now.

How to equalize your headphones: A Tutorial
Hmph, after reading my post over again I see I didn't give near enough info. The sound level was changing from side to side over very small increments of frequency shift. Almost as if it was playing in stereo...that was the clue. After thinking about it for a bit I decided it had to be a...- Agavehound

How to equalize your headphones: A Tutorial
Hey all, I just started playing around with SineGen and I've noticed something. When I slide through the different frequencies the sound is NOT equal on both sides of my HD598s. Could it be my hearing that is at fault? (50 yrs old and I've abused my ears over the years) Or do I need to...- Agavehound
