    Looking for desktop Amp/DAC combo with output selection

    Will it allow me to switch between RCA and headphones without unplugging headphones?

    Looking for desktop Amp/DAC combo with output selection

    Hi all, I am looking for a desktop amp/dac combo with output selection that can properly drive an HD6xx. I have been out of the audio game for a loooong time and would appreciate any and all suggestions. Thanks!

    Amp/Dac Combo with Output Switch

    Hi all, I have been out of the headphone game for a while due to being very happy with Grace M9xx, but plan to take it to use at the office. As such, this seems like the perfect time to get a different Amp/DAC for my home use. I am wondering what options are available that fit the following...

    Audeze - Our Maxwell Gaming Headsets! (latest: Firmware v61 and HQ v97)

    I am interested in the Maxwell but had some questions for those who have also owned the Penrose: Is there a noticeable improvement in connection quality over the Penrose? Specifically the amount of temporary disconnects and distance Is the battery percentage visible without connecting the...

    Audeze Penrose X and Penrose

    As an pre-order adopter of the Penrose, I just wanted to stop by and chime in with my feedback after owning these cans for over a year. Getting it out of the way first, I am not a power user, meaning I use the Penrose in a very simple, limited fashion. I use them purely as wireless headphones...

    That’s because the wireless headset / headphones world is a sad place lol. I’m sure the Pandas can compete though.

    No, users were instructed to flash via the updated desktop app. When Audeze did not end up releasing the updated desktop version in a timely manner, some users found out they could do so via the Android version (mobile and NOT desktop) and ended up bricking their headsets.

    Audeze Penrose X and Penrose

    I certainly get the frustrations a lot of people have had with Penrose and actually agree with a lot of what you said. Headsets are always a weird place for me; good functionality/connectivity with trash sound or great sound with very mediocre to awful functionality/connectivity. I mentioned in...

    My thoughts/opinions/logic/reactions (whatever you want to call it) is all about self-responsibility. People who bricked their headsets because they didn't want to wait and chose not to follow instructions from Audeze, that's on them and they need to own that. Some have and that's awesome, they...

    Audeze Penrose X and Penrose

    I’m sure some of them do, but as a small company trying to enter an established market they do not have the luxury that I enjoy of reacting the same way. Having people blatantly disregard their instructions will always be frustrating no matter who you are. Like I said early on in the thread when...

    Only those who flashed their headsets with beta firmware via unsupported methods.

    I feel that if those who bricked their headsets had exercised proper patience and waited for Audeze to get their desktop app update ready before flashing their headsets could have avoided the entire mess. I also don't consider the entire situation anyone's fault but those users.

    It was not a public beta. It was something that you had to reach out to them about, hence the small group. A public beta is something that anyone can download from their servers (or Google Drive) without invitation and install. As far as I know, regardless of how cool the affected users were...

    Audeze Penrose X and Penrose

    Maybe I am not recalling the timeline of events accurately, but I remember Audeze not opening up their official Beta window as scheduled and people jumping the gun to update to the new beta firmware when they found out they could via the Android app. There was a reason why all the people who...

    Audeze Penrose X and Penrose

    Definitely not trying to say your other feedback isn't valid, but bricking headsets by prematurely flashing with a beta firmware due to impatience is not a legitimate complaint IMO. As for fixing the mic vs the game/chat function, I'd imagine that Audeze's thought process was that the mic...

    What is your mic gain set to in the Audeze app?

    Audeze Penrose X and Penrose

    I was just using my Penrose with my iPhone earlier and listening to some Magic Sword. Got a call, heard it rang, pressed the power button and answered it. Call was too loud so lowered the volume via the wheel. When it was done, I pressed the power button to end the call and resumed listening to...
