:( Oops I thought I mentioned this but I've tried it on my Windows 7 laptop for a few days and it worked fine and never crashed.

My computer still crashes. This is getting on my nerves. I spent too much money on nothing and with my minimum wage job I don't want to risk buying something else. Fiio E17 works on Windows 8, it's just the crashing, so I wouldn't call it incompatible.. But this is infuriating. WHAT CAN I DO

Um well it kind of got run over by a car. :/

No, it only crashes with the Fiio E17. I haven't had it crashing this way until I got the Fiio E17. The Fiio E7 never did this.

Bump.

I tried that after my computer crashed again.. I thought it was going to work, but at the climax of an episode I was watching of a show, it just crashed. Infuriating. I'm wondering if I should give up, accept I wasted my hours of horrible cashier job money on this and get another Fiio E7.

USB 2.0. I tried my USB 3.0 port and it either doesn't work or it crashes more. I have an Acer V5-571 laptop running Windows 8.

The only USB driver I downloaded was the one off www.fiio.com.cn/support/download.aspx and it's from February. I've tried a different cable. In fact, I broke my first cable out of frustration so I had to buy a different one, and it made no difference. I had the gain on 6 db usually, but recently...

My Fiio E17 keeps crashing my laptop which runs Windows 8. It's getting on my nerves. I get a BSOD and the error is "bugcode_usbdriver". This happens all the time, several times a day.. Many times while I'm watching a show or a movie and I'm getting to a good part.. but I've ruled out...

SOLVED:   I turned off the Fiio E7.. unplugged it. Then turned it back on and plugged it in another USB slot.. The one I connected it in was a USB 3.0 connection so I was hoping to use that. Now it's working. I don't know which helped, but I doubt it was the USB slot. Maybe turning it on and...

I just got the Fiio E7. It arrived with a dead battery so it's currently charging.. on my old Windows 7 laptop. It does not charge on my Windows 8 laptop. Does this even work on Windows 8? I've heard from people saying it would work. I can't get my laptop to recognize I even have the damn thing...

I've thought about it and I would just like something that would sound as good as my laptop did.. and I don't want something that would be a pain to carry around. I'm not a stiff, I tend to have my laptop on my laptop and lay down with it, switching positions several times a day. But then again...

There is something wrong with it at least.. Only the right side of my headphones will work unless I push the cable down. Taping has been unsuccessful. I've tried different pairs of headphones and speakers, it seems to be my laptop. I'm not inexperienced in opening my laptop and fixing things but...

I'm not sure if this falls into this thread but: Would the Sennheisers HD380 Pro require an amp? If so, would any suffice? I don't want to spend too much.

Quote: Have you ever tried the HD380? If so, how do they compare? I'm wondering if I shouldve just gotten the HD598 or the HD558.

Have you ever tried the HD 558?   Also, should it disturb me that most reviews and videos relating to the HD380 are from 2009-2011? In a way, I feel like I just bought an iPod 3GS and I'm reading reviews about it. I'm no audiophile so I can't say whether older headphones can become...

I hate reposting but my thread didn't get many responses and neither did my post here 2 pages ago so I'll try again. I just replaced my ATH-M50s for Sennheisers HD380 Pro. The ATH-M50s didn't sound too different from my Skullcandy Hesh 2.0 so I wanted something worth my money. I'm still in the...

I saw two threads discussing a comparison with M50s and not one of them suggested the HD 380. One of them said there's even a more laid back sound, like there's a veil over the music..   Although I'm noticing it sounds pretty alright. I'll have to listen some more. I just like second...

The reviews seem positive but I'm still curious how others would compare this to the ATH-M50s. I returned a highly recommended pair for these, I'm hoping I didn't make a mistake.

I'm not seeing many threads, reviews, or posts on this from after 2009. I just replaced my ATH-M50s for these. The ATH-M50s didn't sound too different from my Skullcandy Hesh 2.0 so I wanted something worth my money. I'm still in the testing phase (I thought I had enough time to try them on at...

Quote: I now have the Sennheisers HD 380 PRO. I thought I had enough time to try them on at Guitar Center but I still feel like I'm trying it on. I'll let you know how it is. Not as much bass, which I liked on the ATH-M50s.. I cant say if it sounds better yet. I'll let you know.  ...

I made a thread about this earlier because I didn't notice this thread.. I'll just copy and paste what I typed here and maybe I'll get more responses.   I have the Audio Technica ATH-M50s.. I'm a little disappointed. I think I was expecting too much out of them. When I compare them with my...

I'm actually a little disappointed with these. The sound doesn't sound much different from my year-old Skullcandy Hesh 2.0.. I'm not noticing anything different. I'm considering going to the store later to try others on. What are your recommendations? I listen to all genres. I don't have...
