I'm interested in those pads too. Will be interesting to hear your thoughts. And I agree with you 100%. These are for using at work or on the go. When cables can get annoying. as a matter of fact. I have not even tried listening to them via cable yet. If I did I think I would want to amp them...

I've been rocking the ATH-M50XBT for about a month now. I agree with the above impressions. For BT headphones the bass is very nice. Not sloppy or bad DSP boosted sound. 1 concern I do have is the micro-USB power connector. USB-C would have been nice and less prone to break since its not...

yanni yanni yanni !!! Damn my post # on these forums is pathetic. I'm going to have to start posting some reviews or something. JL

@BrotherKathos , What gear are you using it with? As DAC and headphone amp ? Stereo usage? I could see this sounding really pretty bright in certain all solid state systems. I'm using mine into a Yamaha R S7000 and ELAC B6. In this system it sounds very good. The ELACs definitely do roll off...

I was responding to Pandaheads' comment, about measuring Ragnarok.   I have not seen the Yggy article yet.   The Ragnarok article is an interesting read.   bests   JL

Merry Xmas fellow Schiit-heads !!! It lives !!! Freya is finally alive on the website !!! Be still my heart. It is so pretty !!! A question(s) for the Schiit guys: do the single ended and the balanced outputs work simultaneously? Can you control volume for 2 amps at the same time ? Also are...

    Only 2 systems in the living room?   I have a 2 channel Sansui receiver based system for radio and podcast listening.   A 5.2 Onkyo/PSB system hooked to my TV area.   And a Yamaha/Schiit/McIntosh/ELAC system for stereo listening.   My friends are always teasing me about how many...

A followup to my last post,   Looks like my issue is specific to Airport Express and Airplay.   I tested the optical out on my macbook and I was able to upsample to 88.1 & 176.2   Apparently the optical signal the Arport Express sends out is garbage.   I found these threads on the same...

USB is data in and power.   RCA are analog out.

New UD-301 & Airplay issue.   Hi there,   I'm a very infrequent head-fi poster.   Recently I decided on the TEAC UD-301 DAC for my primary HI-FI system. I am streaming to an apple airport express over ethernet. The Airport Express is setup as an audio receiver only. WiFi is not active...

Sad to say they didn't work out for me. There were 2 issues:   The left-ear driver buzzed/rattled >100 HZ. It was especially noticable with low Bass lines. A little Italian engineering seemed to mostly fix the rattle. Played loud tone sweeps. Slapped it at 100HZ. ;)   But they didn't...

Getting a pair in the mail today for my birthday. I'll do some A/B testing with my 20th anniversary HD414s and report back here.   I'm hoping that these are the modern replacement for the HD414s. I'm not convinced about the Sennheiser PX100-II as many people complain that the bass is...

Just want to back up Swaffleman's assessment of these phones. They are a great buy at $30. Super efficient so they work with your cellphone ipad etc. And the frequency response is quite detailed and pleasing. Here's a link to a chart comparing these to the Sony MDR V6:  ...

First post on Head-Fi. I thought I would start with my current favorite setup:   50th anniversary edition Sennheiser HD414s into: iPad mini directly. (iPad internal amp and DAC) FIIO E7 via USB camera connection kit to iPad   The iPad amp can drive the Sennheisers to full volume...
