Amazon DT880 woes
So I purchased a pair of 600Ohm DT880 on Amazon for a decent price last week. Yesterday I received the headphones only to find that they shipped out the 32Ohm version :( Amazon has amazing return/replacement policy, but it looks like there's going to be another week of waiting. Does anyone...- emperorpwl

Soundcard vs Amp - which one should come first?
I second the E07k recommendation, for the price you are getting a decent DAC and an amp that's portable and versatile.- emperorpwl

Please help with my system config
if your sound card is a better DAC than E17, I would just go with option 1, there's probably no audible difference between all the listed options.- emperorpwl

The Home Network Media Server / NAS / etc. Superthread
I ended up building a NAS/HTPC hybrid and have it hooked up to my receiver and TV in the bedroom. It runs Windows Server 2012 and files are shared using Samba. I also have XBMC installed on it for HTPC needs. The server is on 24/7 and serves music/movies/pictures etc to every computer on my home...- emperorpwl

Computer Audio in Headphones - Sennheiser HD 600
I think the general consensus is that a dedicated external DAC is usually better than an internal soundcard. The reviews for Modi have been positive so far and it matches perfectly with Magni, so that would be my recommendation.- emperorpwl

head phones for under 200 or a LIL more
as an m50 owner I can confirm that it is pretty bassy (which is good for the genre you listen to), but soundstage leaves something to be desired- emperorpwl
