I bought the Comply foam tips when I purchased the headphones, so I never messed around with the silicone, but I can say that with a good seal these headphones are fantastic for the price. I let mine burn in for roughly 40 hours (I don't know if it makes any difference, but why not?).    ...

Hey guys,    I'm new here and if there's a separate recommendations thread/forum and i'm being an ******* by posting this here, seriously sorry.    Anyway, I have a fiio e7/e9 combo im using to power my Ultrasone Pro900s. I listen almost exclusively to electronic music (trance, house...

Quote: This, so much this^^   I bought the pro 900s after reading 100 pages of this thread practically salivating due to my love (and almost exclusive listening) of electronic music-trance, electro, house, DnB. It's been about 9 months now and while they sound good, I just don't see the...

Could you describe "warm" vs "clinical" sound? I will search headfi and google it, but if you have a simple answer, i'd love to hear that as well. I'm sorry i'm definitely a noob. I do definitely enjoy the sound of the 900's and they work well for what I listen to (95%+ EDM). Would a warmer...

Am I missing out on much by only driving these with an e7/e9 combo? It's all I could afford when I first got them, but now i'm not sure if the cost/benefit ratio of upgrading would be in my favor. Thoughts?

Quote: Honestly, yes it is required. 

Quote: Really?? Mine are about the same place (maybe 200hrs) and sound very, VERY different. SO much more lively, crisp, evened out a little. I was initially (first 100hrs or so) not very happy with them, until I realized at some point (possibly from day 1) the gain switch on my amp got...

Recommendations on IEM's which preform similarly to my pro 900s? I'd love to have something less cumbersome so rotate into my listening.

Quote: If you have a good seal on your head and are playing music you won't hear what's going on outside. Why is this so important to you? If you're thinking about using these for commuting or travel i'd steer you away. They leak a fair amount of sound and preform pretty rather poorly...

I wasn't totally blown away with these when I first got them like some of you have been, but now after 50-60 hours these babies are really coming to life. Love them! The bass has really changed A LOT in my experience.

Quote: Agreed, the only things I haven't been able to find 320/higher are live mixes, or mixes only played on di.fm for example, which only streams at 256k.  

Quote: Regarding your post about house being generally 128/256, I found this to be very untrue. I mostly listen to trance, but also some house, and finding 320 and lossless files is much easier than I thought. Just takes some googling.

Okay, i've got it figured out. Everything works now after some searching and help from Fiio. One last question, where should I set the volume of the e7? It goes from 0-60 but I see no difference. Everything seems to be based on the volume of the e9.     Also, I have searched for this on...

Quote: Yes I do have it docked when I plug in the usb, and still nothing.

So I got the e7 DAC and e9 amp today, as well as my headphones. I've come to find I need to buy some sort of adapter to use this with my macbook? Can anyone point me in the right direction? My computer does not recognize the e9 via the USB cord provided. :(

I Love You Man is my favorite movie and Sidney Fife is one of the main characters.

So I got my 900's and amp (e7/e9) earlier today and I love them already. One question though, how loud should the source be, IE ipod or computer? Should I set it to maxed out on the ipod/comp and then control it with the amp? Also the DAC has a volum separate from the amp dial, where should I...

Quote:   Thanks for the reassurance! I was a little nervous I had bought a lesser version. And I just got the E9/E7 combo, thanks for helping me to seal the deal! I had been looking at that option and reading opinions of the setup on here, and it seemed like a good choice, at least in...

Can anyone tell me/confirm that the Pro 900 and Pro 900 S-Logic are the same phone, just listed differently? I see on the side bar here they each have separate "own it/had it" listings, and the ones listed as 900 Pro S-Logic are the ones I just bought on Amazon for $300, while the ones listed...
