Looking to buy a stand alone DAC instead of using a sound card with headphones.  Was looking at ODAC, Schiit, and others... I don't need anything crazy expensive, but reliable and will sound great still.   How is this DAC?   http://www.mav-audio.com/base/product/tube_magic_d1   Maverick...

Thanks guys, was afraid I needed some very expensive cable or I'd lose quality over X distance.

Hi, I want a 3.5mm extender for my headphones that will not loose quality with audiophile headphones, and be 5-10 feet long.   I would appreciate some suggestions.

Okay thanks! Guys!

Anyone?

Hello(sorry i this is the wrong forum area), I've been wanting to do a mATX PC with SLI, but I cannot do that with a sound card so I wanted to know what my best options are:     I have a titanium HD right now and I only use entertainment mode with stereo for gaming, and music; I don't like...

Quote:   The Titanium HD does have a good DAC though still doesn't it? And I thought the A900X  didn't really need an AMP?

@PurpleAngel   I'm using the A900X from Audio Technica.  That is a great deal too, darn.  I just spend 600 on a new GPU and SSD, no money for the receiver for a few weeks.   @NamelesPFG   Yeah, the Titanium HD might have to be kept for gaming.     @proton007   What would...

Firstly, I want to get some bookshelf speakers and do 2.1 audio and upgrade to 7.1 a little later on for surround sound, and right now I am using a sound card for my headphones, a Titanium HD.   I was looking at receivers and was interested in this one: Yamaha RX-V673  ...

Bump

I just got the A900x today and deciding on what to upgrade and change next for my setup, but I've been stuck figuring out what my best option would be.  For starters I game, watch movies, and listen to music on my PC.    My idea is to run audio through my GPU via HDMI directly to a receiver...

I checked with Audio-Technica themselves, as long as you have proof-of-purchase your covered for two whole years.

I ordered a pair of Audio-Technica A900x headphones off of amazon today and then saw Audio-Technicas warrenty page; only warranties from authorized sellers?     http://www.amazon.com/Audio-Technica-Audiophile-Closed-Back-Dynamic-Headphones-Black/dp/tech-data/B006V386UG     Will...

Have you seen this? It does up to 600 ohm. Don't think it's released or anything yet.   http://asia.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=1&subcategory=872&product=21116&nav=1&listby=usage

I'll check eBay now, that's a good idea.  Also, I plan to upgrade to the new Asus Pheobus, http://www.guru3d.com/news/asus-rog-phoebus-sound-card-pictured/ .

I think I might prefer closed over open so I'm not bothering others too.   I'm using the Z5500 Logitech 5.1 surround sound speaker system that I have had for ages, want to get an actual speaker system with receiver later on though.  I will wait a couple weeks to see more reviews and make my...

I run an optical cable from my sound card(X-Fi Titanium) to my speaker system, and then run my headphones off of my speaker system.   I saw today they have the new version A900x for 254 dollars, how do these compare to the AD900?  ...

That headset sounds intriguing, but that microphone would be way to inconvenient for me to use all the time for everything.

Thanks for the link! I will be going with the AD900 for sure! Thanks for your help you guys!

Is the difference between the AD900 and the Sennheiser HD598 significant in terms of warmth?  The  HD598 looks less comfortable to wear as well to me.

I can always find a clip on mic or something decent, I don't usually use a mic that often.

Actually classical, movies, video games, and so on; a variety.

200-260 is my price range, I am not quite ready to shell out more for better headsets quite yet. :D

Hi, I am new here so help would be appreciated.     So, I originally planed to purchase a Razer Tiamat 7.1 gaming headset and then read they will sound like crap with their drivers and their 7.1 is a gimmick.   I am a PC gamer, I watch movies, TV shows, and listen to soundtracks, I would...
