I have a pair of Sennheiser HD 598s, and a Fiio E7.   A lot of people said they noticed a HUGE difference when they got a Fiio E7. To be honest, I didn't notice much difference at all. I think the amp works fine, since when I change the bass booster, I can hear a difference, but other people...

I know I know, there are lots of reviews on the E7. But I just got mine and I'm pretty excited! :D   Looks: The thing looks really nice, it feels really solid, I love the little OLED screen. It's a little fatter than I expected, but surprisingly light for it's size.    Sound: It's an Amp...

Well, I'm using my Sennheiser HD 598 with my Computer. I don't have a soundcard. I'm using onboard Realtek ALC 892. Will I notice a big difference in Sound Quality if I get the Fiio E7? Will I notice any difference a all?  

-Sennheiser HD 598s -Onboard Sound.   I have 120$ that I can spend on a sound card. Here are my preferences. Music>Guitar Recording>Games.   Music: I listen to metal mostly. Guitar Recording: I use Guitar Rig 5 to record music, sound is horrible recording with onboard sound...

I wanted to make a thread about these headphones because for 35$ headphones, these are way too awesome. I mean, I can even compare it to my Sennheiser HD 598. Of course the HD 598s are better, but the HP400s put up a fair fight. They sound incredibly decent for the price. The bass is almost non...

So, first things first: - I have a pair of Sennheiser HD598s - I have a Fiio E7 on the way - I'm using onboard sound (ALC892)     So, I've been wanting to get the most out of my senns for a while now.   I'm willing to pay up to 100$ for a sound card if it'll make a difference...

Ok, so first things first, I'm using a desktop with Onboard Sound. No Sound Card. Now, I recently got a pair of Sennheiser HD 598's, and I figured the best solution would be to get a Fiio E7. Yesterday I started using a program to record my guitar directly into the PC. Anyway, the sound is...

I got a pair of Sennheiser HD 598s, and I'm getting a Fiio E7 soon. The only problem is, I'm using  onboard audio. And I have 100$ that I can spend on a sound card. What sound card would you recommend I buy?

Ok, so I got a pair of Sennheiser HD 598s, I mainly use them on my desktop that has onboard audio (ALC892). And I have 100$ to spend, maybe a little more even, if it's worth it, I'd go up to 200$ max. At first I was convinced I wanted a Fiio E7/E11 But then some people told me it would be...

I know this has been discussed many times, but I'm just so lost, and I don't know what to do. I use them on my desktop mostly, but I sometimes use them on my iPod, but the desktop is a priority. My computer is using onboard audio, Realtek ALC892 to be exact. I want to bring out the best of my...

I have a DH61WW MoBo. You can find a picture of the mobo here : http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/dh61ww/sb/CS-032198.htm I am already using a graphics card for the PCI Express x16 slot. Would the Xonar fit in the Conventional PCI bus add-in card connector?

When I plug my headphones into my desktop, sound comes out of one ear. The headphones are Sennheiser HD 598. When I plug other headphones, it works great. When I plug my Sennheisers into another PC or an iphone, it works great. The other headphones have cables going into both ears, the...

Ok, so I just got a pair of Sennheiser HD 598s, and I want to get the best out of them. My budget is around 200$. I either get : Fiio E17 Or:  Xonar Essence STX (If you know a better soundcard for similar price, I'm open to all suggestions) I'm using my desktop, which one of these 2...

I just got a pair of Sennheiser HD 598s. I want to get a headphone amp for better sound. Should I get the Fiio  E10, E9, or E17? (Some people also suggested the E7, but I'm new to the audiophile world and don't know much about amps)

I just got a pair of Sennheiser HD 598s and I want to get an amp to get better sound. However, I can't go over 100$. What do you recommend I get?

So I'm getting a new pair of sennheiser HD 598s soon but I cannot afford an amp. Will they still sound good? I currently own a pair of Philips SBC HP400. Will I notice a difference?  

I'm getting a pair of Sennheiser HD 598s,  and I want to use them on my Desktop. Do I need an amp to get good quality? What determines if an amp is needed? The sound card? Or the Power Supply? Do amps make that much of a difference? I know I'd probably need an amp if I were to use them on my...

I might get these headphones, and I want to know what you think, a lot of people don't like the way they look, personally, I think they are quite original and I love their look. But I want to know about the sound, I want to know about what You think about the sound and the other features.

Ok, so the HD 598 costs a lot more, I listen to metal mainly, is the HD598 Worth the money? Compared to the HD 515. I am willing to pay for the HD 598, but it comes with a 6.3mm Jack Plug. I want to use it on my iPod, so, if I get the Temium 3.5/6.5 will it work on my iPod? And will it give me...

I've been looking for weeks and all I can find are Coiled Cable ones, but I need a long cable. How much longer is the Straight Cable btw?  

I was reading a review about the Audio Technica ATH M50s and some people said you have to "burn" them in for 40 hours for them to sound good. Does this mean I have to hit play and leave them on for 2 days or something?

I listen mostly to metal, and these headphones have great reviews, I was just wondering if anyone knew if metal or rock would go well with these headphones, if not, any other ideas?

Hi, I'm new here, and I don't know much about headphones, but I am a heavy listener. I have the Philips SBC HP400. But I want better headphones. I want to listen to music at home. The SHC5100 are wireless so that's good. Should I upgrade to the SCH5100? How good is the sound? Is it better than...
